Reaction to Stress is: What | Makes You Sick

People think the stressful
things that happen to you make
you sick, but what really makes
you sick is how you react ‘to
stress,

Hans Selye, director of the
Institute of Experimental Medl-
cine and Surgery at the Univer-
aity of Montreal, that’ every-
body is born with a certain
store of, vital force and when it
is used up his life is over.

"Dr. Selye, the. world’s
formost authority on the bio-
chemistry of stress, calls this
vital force “adaptation energy”.

How much of this adapta-
tion energy one has is: largely
determined by heredity, he
said, but how soon it is used up
depends on how the store is
spent.

“One: can ‘squander it or,
husband it,” he said in an
interview.

One way to. husband itis to

try to ignore unimportant
things and to réact to important

Visit the Legislature and See Marine Life.

Forty-one Grades 4,6 and 6 *
students from Lucerne School
in New, Denver toured the City.
of Victoria from May 6 to 9. The
students flew from Castlegar to

Victoria on May 6.-Their home ©

away from home was the
University of Victoria which
housed and fed the group and
their teacher chaperones, Miss
S. Crane, Mr. J. D'Arcangelo

and Mr. and Mrs. W. Finley. «

The aeroplane ride, itself a
memorable experience, was
made even more exciting when
the captain showed the-stu-
dents the cockpit and its
multitude of gadgets and dials.

The. next morning was

spent in the Provincial Museum *

with the highlight being the
turn of the century town
featuring a theatre house,
hotel, pharmacy, logging oper-
ation, mine shaft and many
other sights.

In the afternoon, Revel-
stoke-Slocan MLA Bill King
introduced: the visitors: to the

Provincial Legislature when

ones with as, much equanimity
as possible.

“The trick is not to try to
avoid stress, because that's
impossible, but to enjoy and
master it,” he said.

Dr. Selye, speaking’ re-
cently at the California Dental
Association's annual. scientific
mecting said guarding one's
store of vital adaptation energy
is easler for some people than
for others.

“Some people ‘are race
horses, so highly strung that it
would kill them to be kept in a
quiet stall most: of the’ time.
According to Dr. Selye, such
people:need more stimulation.
He compared others to turtles,
whose vital force and energy
are best conserved in quiet and
placidity.

« "I want to. make it clear
that’ all stress is not bad.'Some
of it is godd,”: he’ said?

‘“The English word ‘stress
comes from the. French’ word

“eustreff”,. from ‘the: Greek:
word for good.

Both distress and “eu:
streff" are defined by Dr. Selye
as “non-specific response of the
body toany demand made upon
it’.

Both good and bad stress *

energy, using up the store one
is born with,

“The lash of a whip and a

passionate kiss are equally
stressful, even. though’ one is
distress and the other ‘eu-

tions ‘are the’ same when she
hears her’son’has’ fallen’ jn

that the first report was a

“The toll on her. vital ener-
gy is the panes Her heart beats:

for distress, and so the English
connotation has always been a
bad one.” *

“The English word ‘stress’
comes from the French word
