The meeting closed with the singing of Grace And lunch was served by the hostess. "How we feel about our' anger, shove,, a little about how ewe feel' about our selves,"* she noted, adding, "If 1 say 1 don't get 4efArYt then thatmeans I'm probably hiding My emotions." Because of its violence and' agressive implications, most people are afraid of anger. Many fear that if the emotion is unleashed full force they will be out of control, do something they'll regret lat- er, offend others, make a fool of themselves or, the greatest concern of all, they could be angry enough to kill. The sometimes un- controllable, irrational actions which result from anger are not only psycholo- gically controlled, she said. When the emotional spark to anger is lit, blood leaves the brain and organs and con- centrates in the limbs where its power can be discharged through the violent actions of striking "someone or some- thing. With therushof blood from the b>tain, emotion can easily takecontrol of the Mind and logical, clear thinking can be - made nearly impossible. But according ` to Mrs. McPhail there are ways of dealing with the emotion before it. reaches this destructive level. Whenshe feels the fierceness of about Blue ale.

The county historical society holds about four re- gional meetings per year, with each one being held in a different corner of the county. A local WI usually sponsors each regional meeting. emotion building up' to ,a peak she takes three deep breaths, ` "That .settles the anger drawn and camas me,. It. makes me stable and grounds me. "Once you're more rational," she went on, "then you can talk without laying the blame on someone else. Destructive name-calling is useless. Anger doesn't have to be an explosive thing." The release of anger need not have the power of dyna- mite. That is what the Haw- thorne counsellors temp `dirty anger'; a real ex- plosion which has built up for a long time. Instead they stress the use of `clean anger', by making your feelings known and dealing with the problem on a small level instead of waiting for anger to ac- cumulate. Despite its negative conno- tations, anger does not have to be destructive. Handled properly, it can be a positive force. Anger demands change; it says you care for yourself and other people. "Anger gives us energy to deal with the problem, but if we always put a lid on it then we become depressed," she said. Blocking the emotion and turning it inside may cause people to become hateful and lose their self respect. It can also lead to physical problems, like migraine ;headaches, ulcers, chest pain and even tooth decay. According to the two women, it's good to know the extent and limitations of your anger. If 'worst comes to worst, set up a punching bag in the basement, beat a mattress with a tennis racquet, . or wallop your bathtub with ' a dish towel. Then talk about it. i Van Camp 10 az.
