SHm CLUB Scientists talk about used in making modem weapons. You can show (in this amazing and amazingly simple trick) how heavy that water can be! Place a glass on a book and fill it half full of water, cover it with a napkin, and ask a friend to lift it. Your friend does so easily. Then you add one more drop of water and ask your friend to lift it again. This time, however, be utterly impossible to lift the glass! how: The book will be your tray.

Hold it with your thumb on top, and your last three fingers underneath, supporting the weight of the book. Keep your pointer finger free but out of sight. Place the glass on the book so that it sets fairly close to your thumb. Pour in some water and then cover the glass with a napkin. When your friend grips the glass through the cloth, he or she will be able to lift the glass with ease.

Remove the napkin and add just one drop. As you cover the glass this time bring your index finger out from under the book so you can grip the glass between your pointer finger and thumb. Now when your friend tries to lift the glass you can very easily keep him-her from doing so. Before you remove the handkerchief, you merely put your finger back under the book. Not very scientific, but the version of heavy water! BRAIN LIZ SMITH DR, JOYCE BROTHERS Friday.

Nov. 25. 1977 Colorado Springs. Cob. GaioHo Child's Depression Is Serious Problem Dear Dr.

Brothers: Our 10- year-old daughter seems to be very near a state of depression. She complains of being sad and of not being able to keep up with her schoolmates. Actually, she does very well at school, but she thinks worthless and will never succeed at anything. I know where she gets these ideas. Her teachers seem to like her.

And never pressured her, now have we been strict. My husband feels something wrong that not telling us. He also says no such thing as depression in children. He says this will pass. M.A.W.

Dear M.A.W.: Your husband wrong about there being no such thing as childhood depression. It is the most common cause of behavior problems in youngsters. Often, depression is disguised and parents see an aggressive or hyperactive child. Sometimes depression is brought on by tremendous stress or trauma such as the loss of a parent, a close friend, or even a pet. Perhaps the most common cause of childhood depression is a lack of love from parents who may be too disturbed by pressing problems of their own to give the child the time and love he needs.

Parents may love the child but may be totally unaware that they have changed in their attitude toward the child. Dr. Roger Brumback believes that childhood depression is physiological in origin and he insists that drug treatment is often As you can see, this is a complex problem and there are a number of different opinions as to what causes depression in children. I think dangerous for parents to assume that unimportant and that it will pass. A child who is frequently or chronically sad needs professional attention.

Parents, too, usually need help because they are apt to assume that their state of emptiness and sadness is their fault. This necessarily so. Dear Dr. Brothers: been asked to speak before a group of business men. This is an honor and an excellent opportunity to make new contacts for my own business.

I can address the men either around 11:30 or shortly after their lunch break. I wonder which would be the better time, or would it make any difference? Should I leave it up to the chairman? T.G. Dear T.G.: If I were you I wouldn't leave the choice to chance or to the chairman. definitely select the period after lunch even though some of the men may feel a bit sleepy. easier to wake them up than it is to try to cope with an empty stomach.

According to psychological tests conducted on men and women at Florida Stale University, midday is a time when people seem capable of making important decisions and when able to view past events in the clearest perspective. In short, if you get their attention right after their lunch, you should have maximum power to get across whatever ideas you wish to esent. Another good time to try to convince people is during a meal. The salesman who discusses business at lunch is wise because people are more susceptible to persuasion when eating something they enjoy. God Can Change Behavior Dear Dr.

Graham: A young woman in our church led a very bad life before becoming a Christian, but now she knows her past is all forgiven. However, her parents have now divorced, and she is very bitter and unforgiving toward them. Do you think she is really a R.K. Dear Mrs. I cannot judge whether or not she is a Christian, nor can you; only God knows that, Bible does teach that people will change in their behavior when Christ comes into their lives, and it warns us about false professions of faith that do not lead a changed life.

The Bible says, we are workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which prepared in Billy Graham advance for us to (Ephesians 2:10, New International Version). The Bible also says, ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for sake hath forgiven (Ephesians On the other hand, we also know from Word that Christians are not perfect. Although Christ has come to dwell within us by the Holy Spirit, we also still have our old sinful nature. The young woman in your church may very well be a true believer. It is wrong for her to be filled with bitterness, but like all of us she needs to learn more victory over sin in her life.

Let me make a suggestion to you. This young woman is going through a very difficult time, and she may not even realize how much bitterness has crept into her life. She needs the prayers and sympathetic help of other Christians. Her bitterness may be wrong, but it would be just as wrong for others to stand off and condemn her. Help her realize how much God has forgiven her and how much she forgive others.

The Bible commands us, ye one burdens, and so fulfill the law of (Galatians TWISTER: How can you tell the score of a game before it begins? ANSWER: Before any game begins the score is 0-0.
