HI )) of Temper
Con Be Curbed
By Lawrence Goutd
Can you hetp iosing your temper?
Answer: You can't possibly help
getting angry any time that you
are frightened or hurt, and telling
yourself you are "above such feel-
ings only leads you to repress
your anger out of consciousness
and perhaps "take it out on your-
self. But whether you'll give way
to a fit of temper depends upon
your emotional maturity—your abil-
ity to stop and think whether the
consequences will be "worth it" in
the long run, as they rather seldom
will be. The old rule of "counting
ten before you speak" is both good
psychology and good sense.
Will feeling superior to others
make you "democratic"?
Answer: It will usually make you
more considerate and friendly than
feeling inferior to them, since
what we call snobbishness is main-
ly an attempt to compensate for
feelings of inferiority by making
helpless people "bow and scrape"
before us. Only someone who feels
inwardly secure can behave
naturally. But the best inward se-
curity is not based on feelings super-
ior to others: it grows out of an
awarenesg of your worth that is in-
dependent of "comparisons," and
lets you ignore the foolish question
of superiority entirely.
Wit) "blank" remedies cure
skinaitments?
Answer: Yes, when the condition
is "psychosomatic," says Dr. E.
William Abramowitz of New York.
There are inflammations of the
skin for which the best cure is to
make the patient think he's going
to get well, and the way to im-
plant this "suggestion" may be to
give him a medicine or salve of
which the chemical effects are only
temporary. Whether this "placebo"
contains any actual medication or
not should depend upon the doctor's
estimate of whether the patient is
receptive to suggestion or is skepti-
cal about the success of the treat-
ment.

Tubercutosis !s Stit! Common
"OEFORE THE X-ray was in gen-
^ eral use for examination of the
chest for tuberculosis, the physi-
cian had to strike the chest wall
with his fingers, listen to sounds of
the chest by aid of the stethoscope,
and then look through a microscope
to try to find the tubercle bacillus
in the patient's sputum.
While these methods of examina-
tion, together with the temperature
taken three times daily, discovered
most cases of tuberculosis, it was
not until X-ray examination of the
chest was used that tuberculosis
and its location and extent were
really made known.
Just before the X-ray examina-
tion of the chest for tuberculosis
came into use, it was believed that
practically all of us had tubercu-
losis at some time in our lives, but
that most of us outgrew it or else
it was in a "quiet" stage and so
was causing no symptoms. Today,
lung specialists state that tuber-
culosis is present in an active or tn
a "quiet" state in about 25 per cent
of the population
ByDr. James W.Barton
While it would take much time
and money to obtain an X-ray of
the chests of everybody, it ia cer-
tainly worth it as it would save
many useful lives. To save time
and money, and thus get individuals
and whole communities to have
their chests examined, it has been
suggested that the fluoroscope be
used in mass surveys.
The advantages of the fluoroscope
where the examining physician, by
means of the X-ray machine, can
look directly into the chest is that
it shows the extent of the move-
ment of the lungs, and the size,
rhythm and position of the heart.
The entire chest can be examined,
by moving the fluoroscope and the
patient. The disadvantage of the
fluoroscope is that no permanent
study record is made for the physi-
cian or X-ray specialist. Whtle
X-ray of the chest is considered
the best single detection method,
the physicai examination and tuber-
culin test also are used.
HEALTH NOTES
Even though there may be no ap- j
parent symptom of indigestion, the
fact that the aging individual ts {
not getting full value from the food
eaten may cause tiredness y
in the day. In such cases, foods
rich in minerals and vitamins
should be eaten in increased
amounts and a smaller quantity of
foods used.
It is generally admitted that X-
ray of the chest is the best single
method of finding if tuberculosis
of the lungs is present. The great
surveys of whole communities by
X-ray of chests not only have been
the means of finding cases in which
tuberculosis was suspected, but also
in finding many cases m which
tuberculosis was not suspected.

Prayer in Pain
Lesson for May 29, 1949
*T*HE SHADOW over Gethsemane
^ is deep. We can scarcely set
the tortured figure under the moon-
lit olive trees. If Jesus' closest
friends, in that
hour, were strang-
ers to his soul, we
cannot dare to pen-
etrate al) the sec-
rets of that fateful
hour. Yet while we
cannot know alt,
w e can know
enough; enough to
support us in our
own time of dark- Dr. Foreman
ness and of pain.
Mark uses very strong language
to describe the state of Jesus' mind
in Gethsemane. The two Greek
words he uses, translated in the
King James version "sore amazed"
and "very heavy," are translated
by the Revised Standard Version
"greatly distressed and troubled;"
by Goodspeed, "distress and
dread;" by Moffatt, "appalled and
agitated." As our hymn says.
"We know not how, we can-
not tell
What pains He had to bear."
Still, we do know of some of the
burdens which weighed so terribly
on Jesus' mind and heart that
night.
* * *
Power of Darkness
^^NE THING that must have
troubled our Lord was lack of
sympathy. Peter, James and John
were comfortably asleep, evidently
without the slightest notion of what
he was suffering. But there was
worse than iack of sympathy, some-
where in the dark city one of
Jesus' supposed friends, the man
called Judas, was even then slink-
ing through the alleys with murder
in his heart.
Jesus well knew what was in
store for him. He knew the San-
hedrin would cat! him a btas-
phemer, he knew what the
Romans wouid do with him,
once they got their hands on
him. Worse than this must
have been the tragic sense of
faiture.
"I would, but ye would not," he
had said in tears to this very city;
a city full of enemies who should
have been his friends, of unbelievers
who should have believed, a city
he loved, but which had nothing
for him but thorns and a cross.
All this was on Jesus' heart that
night—and as many Christians be-
lieve, far more. One of the most
profound Christian thinkers has
suggested that the heaviest, most
painful shadow on Jesus' white
soul was the sense of guilt, not his
own but for the sins of the world.
Btood and the Ange)
CO JESUS PRAYED. Even in the
^ cool spring night his forehead
was covered with sweat, falling to
the rocky ground like drippiing
blood. Never rose prayer from a
more tortured heart. And what
came of it? In one sense, the prayer
was not answered. The cup did not
pass from him, he must drink it
to the last bitter dregs. The prayer
did not remove the pain. Yet in a
deeper sense, the prayer of Christ
was fully answered. "Not as I will,
but as Thou wilt," he breathed.
The prayer that sets one's own
will in line with the will of God,
whatever His will may be, is the
prayer that always finds answer.
At the end, there was not release,
but power. "An angel came and
strengthened him."
* * *
What Prayer Can Do
TESUS "LEARNED obedience by
I the things which he suffered."
(Heb. 5:8.) We can share his les-
son. The hour of pain is not the
hour to begin praying; those who
have not learned prayer before,
will scarcely know how to pray in
a time of agony. Yet the time of
pain is not the time to give up pray-
ing. When the dark hour comes,
Jesus did not throw aside his faith,
he prayed more intensely than ever
before. Prayer does not explain
pain, much less expiain it away.
Prayer does not aiways get
rid of pain, even though in
many cases the prayer of
faith works cures where doc-
tors faii. What true prayer
does aiways is to set the one
who prays in tune with the wi!!
of God even when that wiii is
not as our own.
Prayer does not bring us all the
answers to the riddles of existence.
It does bring power to bear what
God sends us. For God's answer
to those he loves is not always es-
cape, but it is aiways endurance.

Just in Case
The old lady passing the insane
asylum stopped an approaching in-
mate and said: "Can you tell me
the time?"
The cloistered brother took out
a foot rule and a compass and a
T-square. After fiddling with them
for about five minutes, he said,
"It's just four o'clock."
"Wonderful," says the nice old
lady, "but what do you do if it's
raining and you can't measure the
shadow?"
"Oh," shrugged the inmate, "in
that case, I have to look at my
watch."
Never sew even the simpiest
seam without pinning and then
basting it first: the time thus spent
wili reward you with a better fit-
ting garment.
