Page 6 THE OAKVILLE-TRAFALGAR JOURNAL Thursday, July g, 0 | Six-year-old Child, Navy Vet, Victims In Bronte Tragedy Lake Ontario last Sunday af- ternoon claimed the lives of 6- year-old John Inkster Green, only child of Mr. snd Mrs, J. L. Green, 114 Armour Blvd, York Mills, and William Alexander, 25, 118 Ava RQ, Toronto, when the canoe in which they were paddling capsiz- ed about 150 feet from shore, just cast of East Ave, Bronte. The Greens are spending the summer at their cottage at Bronte. Noticing their plight from the shore, Mr, Green jumped into a canoe and paddled frantically to to the scene, dove in and brought his son to the surface. Dr. Vic- tor Cecilion, Hamilton, fishing nesr by, quickly brought his power. boat alongside and helped father and son aboard, Alexander did not come to the surface. Dr. Cecilion applied artificial respiration both in the boat and ashore, and was later spelled by members of Oakville fire bri- gade, which made a record run to the scene. George Boocack, Doug: Wilson and U. S. Richards work- ed for two and a half hours in fruitless effort to revive the lad. Life was pronounced extinct by. Dr, W. M. Wilkinson. Meanwhile, Bronte fire brigade members, in a fishing boat, com- menced dragging operations, bringing Alexander's hody to the surface an hour after the mishap.

Alexander, a Royal Navy veteran who had sur- vived two ship wrecks, came to Canada with his bride about eight months ago. Mrs, Green stated she had seen the bow of the cance go up, "Sud- denly both were in the water," she said. "John was screaming, and Alexander was calling for help while trying to hold him up." Alexander had suffered a dis- located shoulder some time ago, and it was thought that it was probably due to this injury that he was unable to swim or hold the boy up longer. Building By-law Planned By Bronte Commission Bronte will be divided into zones under a proposed by-law which came up for preliminary. discussion by the Board of Com- missioners last weel. The by-law will cover various aspects of con- struction, and will take local improvements into consideration. While nothing definite has yet been drafted, it is learned that the zoning principle has been ap- proved and that the by-law will cover all types of work. The building of sidewalks, now car- ried out on a frontage basis, would in future be done under the zoning plan, 'with the work being charged to the entire zone. It is understood the board will more fully consider all aspects of Bronte Port Inspector he building of the new east pier in immediate pros- importance from a Hypnotism - and - Mesmerism By C. S. Cooper CHAPTER TI Women are as easily hypnotized as men. Imaginative persons and those who sleep soundly are easily' hypnotized. Many persons will say: "Nobody can hypnotize me." They should be ashamed to say so. Only experiment can demon- strate whether a particular per- son can be hypnotized or not. If he can be, it implies no weakness of nerve or brain or mental or physical inferiority of any sort. If he cannot be, it does not prove strength of intellect or even of will or the possession of any superior qualities of mind or body. Hypnotized persons do not see any. of the objects or people in the room except the operator, or hear anything except his voice. They can be made apparently cog- nizant of their surroundings only by having their attention espe- cially called to them by the oper- ator. Even then, they generally see only imaginary objects. Their eyes are open, and their sight ap- pears to be entirely normal, but there is no co-ordination of the faculties. If you introduce a young person to, them, they won- der if it is a hoy or a girl and are liable to address them as either, You must remember that in the hypnotic condition, all the affairs of ordinary life are forgotten. On the other hand, after awaken- ing, the events of the hypnotic condition are forgotten. Further, in every subsequent period of hyp- nosis, the events of the former similar periods are remembered. So a person who is habitually hypnotized has two continuous memories, one for the events of his normal life only when he is normal, and one for the events of his hypnotic period only when he is hypnotized. Some subjects, when awakened out of the influ- ence, remember what they have nce the first time, but the second time they do not remember. It fades entirely from the waking memory, yet some subjects when first put under the influence re- member nothing of what has transpired during the sleep. = After a subject has been hyp- notized and awakened (although your subject is apparently all right after you awaken him) yet he is not so in reality. For his will-power is still withdrawn from the direction of his thoughts, so that your commands will exert their influence over him, and he will readily obey any suggestion you may make, The act of carry- ing out a command will again throw him back into the hypnotic state, as he falls back into that state automatically. He will therefore devote all his energy towards the execution of any com- mand you may give him, but no sooner is his attention directed into another channel, or the in- fused idea dispatched by a word or sign or a look from the oper- ator, than the potent charm by which he was enchained is at once dissolved. Of course you may lead him from one perform. ance to another without waking, or you may wake your subject at the conclusion of each experi- ment. Remember that after a person has been hypnotized once, he can be hypnotized with perfect ease. Of course a person can be kept under the influence for al- most any length of time, either in a sound sleep or occupied in performing experiments. Yet there are many times when the awakening of a subject will cre- ate as much amusement or as- tonishmnt as the performance he is made to go through while un- der the influence. Hypnotism may be defined as a condition of artificial or in- duced sleep, brought about by simple methods during which the subject is insensible to his sur- roundings and yet under perfect control of the operator, who may direct his thoughts into any chan- nel desired and compel him to execuate any command. The hyp- notic condition is brought about mainly by the concentration of the subject's attention and by the suggestions of the operator, If the whole attention of the been doing while under the influ- Traffic Toll Uptrenq Stresses Caution Neeg Fatal traffic accidents in (, , tario continued their seasonal swing last month with a Prelim. inary count of 56 deaths on gy | province's streets and highyy,, Although the trend in (yy, deaths was down for the three months of the year, toll for April and May togethe, | up from the same two monty of last year.

This result having been produced, the subject's will power and power of resistance are considerably weakened, be- cause he is much more inclined than at first to believe the oper. ator's assertions. His suscepti: bility to suggestion is then great: ly increased and this produces the chief phenomena of hypnosis.
