THUEDTMA 1 R. lmh.11)58 TIR CANADIAN STA¶'VRAW UBOFlWANIT2.Wf lONTARIOl The Science f Hypnotism loyal - MondaY, 8:30 p.m. The mniddle of the 20th Century will go down in history as the period during which hyp- notism emerged as a science. SEarller it had been something of@ a mystical art. Until vez~q4 egent1y the word "hypnotism" Y.as flot consid- ered quite resp~ectable by the orthodox medical fraternity. It took World War II to ham- mer home the fact that no mat- ter what you eall it hypnosis is a real and tremendous force. Some now believe that the ability to harness ,the mysterious powers of the human mind will be considered this generation's gratest contribution to the pro- gess the human race. ob'ly who has lived tbrough the war years need be remind- ed how millions of people witb average intelligence were led to believe, to do, and even to die for ideas at which they would normally laugh and consider ridiculous. This mob psychol- ogy is, to be strictly scientific, mass bypnotism . . . and is now studied as such by Science. Leaders with various tities led these millions by the nose. But wbatever namne these lead- ers pinned on themseives "Hlyp- notist" fits thernail. They were expert in the use of a technique Science had not yet, at that time, adequatcly explain- ed. Today genuine hypnotismn is a science like physics and cbemistry. The definite funda- mental laws and unchanging principles upon which it is bas- ,'-ed have been discovered and they now can be explained. As astronomy evolved fromn astrol- ogy-cbemistry from alchemy- so scientific hypnotism grew out of the primitive half-truths of mesmerism. Dr. William McDougali, Pro- fessor of Psychoiogy and form- erly Head of the Psychology De- partment, Harvard University, writes, without qualification:1 "Hypnotism is undoubtedly theJ mnost important, the most fruit- ful and far-reaching method of experimental, psycbolôgy." 1 Many people, even today,1 associate hypnotism with magic. This attitude is the result of ignorance. Science agrees that1 hypnosis is a condition or state whicb can be artificially induc- ed and is characterized by mark-1 ed susceptibility to suggston Hypnotism is merely a iaslo Be autiful Models Seen in Breslin's Fashion Show e xa g ge r ated suggestibility,1 brought about by the bypnotist.1 In this state the subi ect is bigh- ly cooperative. .In religion and politics hypno- tism generally works on people in groups-mass hypnotism. In medicine, opi the other band, bypnotism is used on individu- ais, as a curative agent. It is a recognized form of healing, in common use today-it is known, flot as bypnotism, but as "Sug- gestive Therapeutics." Fewv American physicians in general practice wouid today admit to using bypnotism. Tbey do use it, however, without a name or under some other name. An authority, Dr. Victor H. VogI, Assistant Chie!, Division of Mental Hygiene, U. S. Health Service, bas written: "The use- fulness of bypnotism will in- crease as the scepticism and ig- norance of its true nature dîmin- ish." Scientifie hypnotism is an instrument of modemn psy- cbiatry today. It belps doctors discover the underlying causes of many mental and physical ilîs, and to eliminate quirks that stand in the way of happiness and success.
