Health— Early Care Is Required 1n Mental Illness

By JANE STAFFORD Science Service Writer WHEN MENTAL ILLNESS strikes, as it does some time or other in one out of every five families in the United States, both the patient and his family suffer unnecessarily because of their utter lack of knowledge about mental illness and what to do for it. . An unjustified feeling of shame too often makes them try to hide the fact ‘of the illness ‘instead of seeking at once the aid of a physician as they would when someone in; the family got sick with pneumonia or appendicitis. Much practical information that will help families of the mentally sick is given in a new book, Mental Illness: A Guide for the Family, written by Edith M. Stern with the collaboration of Dr. Samuel V. Hamilton, 2 ” ”

“MEDICAL HELP is necessary to recognize the symptoms-of mental disorders even more than the symptoms of physical disorders,” Mrs. Stern points out. There is no need to be alarmed when a member of the family does something peculiar or erratic, she explains, but when he cannot carry on his daily business because he is beginning to brood, or is flying from one thing to another; when he goes on a spending spree, breaking the habits of a lifetime and spending more than he can possibly pay for; or puts sinister interpretations on the simplest actions of others or gives mistaken explanations of everyday happenings, it is time to send for a doctor. The next steps will be ‘directed by the doctor, but this new guidebook gives valuable information for the whole family on each step, from possible consultation with a psychiatrist through getting the patient admitted to a hospital, letters and visits and, finally, the patient's return home on parole or discharged

Beauty—

Chubby, Eh?’

Don’t Shun

The Dirndl

By ALICIA HART Times Special Writer

THE FIRST TABOO of chubby girls who know a little about smart dressing is, “Don’t wear dirndis or round collars.” Accepting such taboos as abso» lute commands, says a wise designer, can make Miss Plump a very dull-looking girl. It leads in extreme cases to a wardrobe of such monotony that the knowing observer will note mentally, “Why don’t you come out from that V neck and apologetic straight skirt? We know you have a figure that’s different from, and maybe just as interesting as, your ‘well-propor-tioned’ classmate’s.” It is true that a bulky miss may make herself look freakish by 4 too-tight or a fully gathered allround skirt. Much commoner among chubbies, though, is the girl whose hips are prominent; that is, a few inches larger than her bust. And the fact is that a softly gathered dirndl,<or one with unpressed pleats in front or back, generally will flatter this figure much more than a straight, flat skirt, even though the fuller skirt does indicate the full hip. 2 8 2 .FOR THE FULLER skirt Is more graceful, and that is what the observer notices, forgetting the difference between this figure and the rather arbitrary. standards of proportions; More to the point for most chubbies are other popular dont’s: Don't wear horizontal stripes or big plaids or all-ruffies dresses. Don’t wear your hair fluffed out around your face or your neck. You can wear checks and plaids of small, even moderate size, especially if theyre combined with solid colors. You can wear bright colors if your clothes are fitted properly. ¢ Rem ember that although you can emphasize the parts of your figure which are good and take attention away from defects by means of your clothes, you cannot get too far away from the facts without getting ab-
