Brain Pacemaker
Treats Schizophrenics

Success in treating schizo-
phrenics and other severely
mentally ill persons: with a
brain pacemaker has been
reported by. a New Orleans
psychiatrist-neurologist.

. Ten of the 11 patients who
have received the tiny device,
which corrects electrical dis-
turbances in the brain much
like a cardiac pacemaker regu-
lates heart rhythms, are lead-
ing cloge to normal lives after

up to 20 years of being in

hospital, drugs and shock treat-.

ments.

They are no longer receiv-

ing medication or other treat-
ment, said Dr. Robert Heath,
chairman of the department of
psychiatry and neurology at
Tulane University’s school of
Medicine.

.Heath presented his report
at the annual meeting of the
Society of Biological Psychia-
trists in Toronto.

_ By Pastor DONALD W: REED --

Well, school’s out.

+ years ago than I like to think, I
‘! ean still remember how great it
si felt to walk out of those

A Short Story
3, About Two
Short Lives

A phone cali late one night
brought a man to the scene of
- an accident, His daughter's and
her escort's lifeless bodies were
still pinned in the wreckage. A
bottle, whose spilled contents
filled the air with the odor of
alcohol, had rolled out of the
crashed vehicle.

The grief-stricken father
picked up the bottle with shaky
hands saying: “If I could get my
hands on the one who sold them
this stuff I'd hang him.”

Later that night, on ar-
riving home, the distraught
parent opened a cupboard door
to reach for a drink from his
bottle. It wasn't there. In its
place was a note: “Daddy, hope
you don't mind; we borrowed
your bottle tonight."

Alcoholism Association.

youngest graduated from high
school, we made the startling
discovery that the cycle was
about to start all over againi

Now, with our first family
all ‘flown the coup’, we. still
have: an 11-year-old roaring
around keeping us young. It’s‘a
great experience; one I would-
n't have missed for worlds... ‘-

The school system has
changed a great deal through
the years, but there's one thing
that hasn't changed—report
cards. At the end of every year
of school is that inevitable day
of reckoning.

Which reminds me of an-

other in my clagsic collection of .

cartoons: young son, complete
with sneakers, comb behind his
ear and ‘textbook under his
arm, has just handed Dad his
report card. Dad just happens
to be in the living room,
practising his putting and ob-
viously not doing too well. ..

The cartoonist has caught
the tension of that moment just
beautifully as he has Lad say to
Dad: “Dol ever complain about
your score cards?”

: Reminds. me of a little
story about the boy presenting
his report card to father. |

“Here's my report card,
dad, along with.one of your old
ones I found in the attle,” says
the boy.

“Well, son, you're right,”
says dad. “This old report card
of mine you found isn’t any
better than yours. I guess the

only fair thing to do is to give —

you what my father gave me.”
; Did you know that the
% Bible has something to say
about report cards? One verse
puts it this way: “So then each
one of us shall give account of
himself to God.” Jesus said
“every careless word that men
shall speak, they shall render
account for it in the day of
judgment.”
“We must all appear before

the judgment-seat of Christ, .

that each one may. be recom-
pensed for his’ deeds in ‘the
body, according to what he has

the apostle Paul adds.

Referring to Himself, Je-
sus said, “the Son of Man is
going to come in the glory of
His Father with His angels and
will then’ recompense every
man according to'his deeds.”
And that is borne out by a
verse from the very last
chapter of the Bible: “Behold I
am coming quickly, and my.
reward is with Me, to render to
every man according to what he
has done.”

One thing becomes very
clear as you read God's Book—

_ there is a day of reckoning
coming. Responsibility and ac-
countability are principles that
are built into the scheme of.
things.

Maybe we should. start

“thinking now about that ulti-

mate report card.
