T) Ik n,........ 1 . tbl .1 WHAT lyORRY DOES There were 39,106 patients on! the register in fifty-six mental hospi­ tals in panada on December 1st, 1934. This w.as an increase of 2,052 fiver , the same1 date o.f the* previous year, number of patients ha$ seriously taxed the capacity ..of the mental in­ stitutions in nearly every province. Normally, it . would be expected that an augmentation of patients would .correspond with the increase in the population. Howeve’r, the7 increase' “iptist in some* respects , at least be traceable to the industrial and fin- 1 ancial depression. . It is interesting to note that of a total of 6,403 admissions in 1934, 3,399 wer.e dependent, 2,253 -were marginal and 640 were comfortable. These facts should tend to show what part worry places in the bring­ ing bn • of mental illness. It is‘ also interesting to note that 4,051 patients were frond urban centres, while. 2,347 were from rural sections. This would seem to be another indi­ cation of the part, lossof , employ­ ment has played in the . mental­ health of;Canada.—Oshawa Times.

Thus is was that when James VI of Scotland went to London- to be­ come sovereign of the United King­ dom he became James I of Great: Britain. • ’ I By the same token, it is contend-! ed by Scotsmen, when Queen Vic-' toria died and the present • king’s grandfather, Edward VII, came to the., throne, he “should'” have been styled Edward I—despite the fact that before t.he union there had been six previous kiri.es of England nam­ ed Edward. , • . • A- mighty gathering, of Scottish clans, highlanders and lowlanders alike, took place at’ Banockbum.j to pretest against the “.violator: of their country’s rights.” They maintained if Scotland’s own King^James VI became.
