Never once did the psychiatrist talk to me, or listen. Once when I appealed to her, in the torture room before a treatment, she turned her back on me and said “Be quiet and lie down.” I am a) timid person, so couldn't insist.

Eventually, giving a perform- ance of pretense that would merit an “Oscar,” I won out. After 10 shock treatments in two weeks, I was taken home — supposedly “well,” but actually in much worse shape, I knew.

Now I was really lost; com- pletely disoriented. I had forgot- ten how: to cook, couldn't add. The dresses in my closet looked strange. L couldn’t remember my neighbors’ nanies. Friends ‘called many of whom I didn’t recognize, saw my condition and wept openly, crying: ““What have they done to you?”

Dear P.Y.: Sorry I've had to cut your fascinating story by one-third. But it still ought to curl the hair of a.certain psychiatrist you have known!

Mrs. John Simpson and Mrs. Margaret MacPherson were in charge of ‘the study period, and the subject was Canada. The population of Canada is - over- whelmingly Christian, 97 — per cent of its citizens having affili- ation with some Christian church. Church Union in 1925, embracing the . :

Presbyterian churches, was a most important step. There is very little* racial ‘discrimination in Canada. Healing Cults have made little headway. Alcohol- ism is a problem. There are many drug addicts in the West. Rural churches are the heart of the nation, and church extens- jon is a major project.
