Common Sense
By J. J. MUNDY. ,
Control
Have you ever had a test among
tliildrcn to tee who could sit the
stillest for five minutes, nut a tene
stillness, but a perfectly natural re
laxed pose and perfect quiet?
Yoit may be surprised at the re
sult of this test.
The child who is the liveliest of
the bunch may show the greatest
self-control and the one ''you least
suspect, of nervousness may do the
most wiggling tinder the pressure of
necessity for quiet.
It happens more than once in a
man's life that the price of his life
is the ability to keep still physically
and orally, .
There are some operations where
a hair's breadth of movement one
way or the other may mean death,
and in rase of accident it js not al
ways possible to administer an anes
thetic. ' ' ' .
The' ability of a- naticnt to "held
still" means greater success on the
part of the doctor or nurse, and not
only will it mean a steadier hand
but a clearer mind on the part of
both.
This test may be varied, an arm
or a foot or the head or an eyelash;
in other words, learn to "hot turn
a hair."
