ELLENlS

by an Island Farmer's Wife

Another day of unsettled weather. we have had-of odd silvery show- ers. yet of lengthened "glimpses of the sunny blue back of the clouds; a day for haying-folks to learn more of the virtue of patience and to set in order their housss in leadiness for the more demanding days to come.

For Rob, choring past. it was his lot to make all excursion to town-he and his household-to collect those pieces necessary to make repairs to a mower which had in part come to grief at the mowing . . . It was a nice outing if not extended, for the root of us: to make our small buyings, to, idle through the stores with the lads. and, of course. window-shop.

It was interesting to note the tourists. and visitors on holiday to our Island shores, make their selections of souvenirs to send or take with them to remembered one: back home . . . choosing too. color- fiii cards of the beautiful Anne country and others of our engag- ing scenes. to share thus their vacation with absent loved ones and friends.

It was good too for us, for the

sake of this tourist-minded Prov- ince, to see how graciously and ith what understanding these were eing served. We recall from our own wanderings that a smile or a few pleasant words spoken. have the power to draw over wide dis- tances where other attractions of the place may fail to ' mvu.

Did we today buy a pen? No, for the time James' birthday gift of money to us lies in a second- bset place of safe-keeping. And where is the best? An old and extremely knowing friend of our young years once advised us with a chuckle of apology over the short- comings nf humans. "It you ever. have a love-letter, Ellen or some- thing else precious you want to keep safely and in secret, just put it between the leaves of the Parlor- Bible: it's not likely that any one. will find it there!”

Gratuitous Criticism

DEAR MISS DIX: Although i, am happily married, with

;have three younger sisters. and for the past year none of them has spoken to me. The final break came as the culmination of years of bickering, with them constantly telling me how to run my home, ,husband and children. cdrrylng un- true or exaggerated tales back and .forth. My youngest sister is the prime offender. Although they Hive near enough to me for easy

visiting, they never stop at the house. They all drive cars - I haven't one. Is there anything one can do to remedy I. family

situation like this?

IGNORE SUCH CIUTICS

ANSWER: The whole tone of your letter is one of complete martydom and persecution. You feel that all your life these sisters have picked on you, igvnored you. or shown preference for almost anyone else. Pi-obwbly you overdid the "oldest sister" routine while the family was ll-owing up. and. at the first opportunity, the other slrls began putting you in a sub- ordinate positlon. to which. much to their amaslpent. you submitted meekly. There's no reason why any- one clse should accept unwanted and unwarranted criticism from others. either family or friends. If the offender is told just two or three times that your way of doing things seems to be working out all right, the gratuitous advice may cease. However, when it's quite evident that these little slams are reaching vulnerable spots. be ne- sured they will continue and in- crease. Meet this type of fault- finding with indifference, not trarli. since you never had much pleasure lI'l.the association with your sis- ,ters, lt'a difflciilt to see why you (want to see more of them. except that you prove the truth of the adage "blood is thicker than wat- er."

Suppose you make the overtures to in closer relationship, instead of waiting for meone else to do it It appears that you sit taking the initiative yourself. When you meet one of them. be as aisterly as you can, interested in their activities, the welfare of their families, doing no complaining yourself, and 3c. cepting any barbed remarks with a figurative shrug. Inspire respect and you'll get it.

That Body of Yours

By James W. Barton. M. D.

WHAT WE DO NOT LIKE ABOUT NOISE

I write frequently about -noise. especially unnecessary noise, not only because of its harmful effect upon hearing but also upon the whole nervous system. It has been known to cut down efficiency of office workers by as much as 30 per cent. Exposure to noises of ex- tremc intensity may cause heating of the skin. blurring of vision. ap- parent muscular weakness, and loss of hearing.

The problem of noise control has been approached from many angles. There are laws dealing with nuis- ance and from the legal stand- point. a noise is a nuisance if it is excessive. unreasonable, unneces- sary, or injurious to health or if it can be cut down and is not. Most leases have clauses concerning nois- es. especially after ll.00 p. in. Per- sons employed in factories when noise cannot be eliminated are ed- vised to wear ear plugs but even so few workers like to wear them.

On the other hand it has been found that mosi,people can adjust themselves to noise of certain types. For example. the noise generated by an airplane motor seems to have little or no effect on mental func- tlon and other senses even when the persons concerned would pre- fer quiet surroundings and tend to become tired and irritable after ex- posure to this noise. .

There are. however, certain types of noises which people definitely do not like and these factors-that in- fluence the effects of noise on man include:

(ii The fact that the noise is of an unwanted character.

i2) Extremes of pitch or fre- quency. i3l Extreme loudness.

(1) Unexpectcdness. A loud un- expected noise may cause a rise in blood pressure and a decrease in the action of digestion.

(5) Uncertainty of the direction from which the sound comes.

(6) Unfamlllarity or inability to figure out what causes the noise.

(7) The state of health of the person exposed to the noise.

Some authorities now conclude that most normal persons can adapt themselves to noise to a great ex- tent and once they have become so adapted to the noise, it does not interfere with their efficiency to any great extent. This does not in-

clude, of course. the seven types of noise mentioned above.
