DALTON DEAN, Trustee, c/o DALTON DEAN, Solicitor, Haileybury, Ontario 34-1c THOUSANDS WITH HEARING LOSS EVER GRATEFUL FOR EXPERT'S FREE CLINIC! It seemed strange to me how a loss of hearing could so markedly affect a person's personality. Having witnessed this change in an associate ...I decid- ed to ask Mr Vance's opinion about it. He quickly revealed how thoroughly the modern specialist understands the problems of the hard-of-hearing. "People who have studied psychology explain it by calling such a personality change a "compensation." In other words, the person with a hearing im- pairment unconsciously tried to make up to himself for the changes that have taken place. "Let me give you an example of an actual case. Not long ago I gave a free hearing test toa young girl who isa law student. I could see at the end of the consultation, while she was hearing well she still appeared troubled. She told me she was deeply concerned about her career, and the trouble she was having in classes... and yet she was undecided. "I askd her why a young, attractive girl like herself, who likes dancing . . . who wants a career . . and who admits her difficulty . . could be so undecided about wearing a hearing aid when the Acousticon had returned her hearing as close as possible to normal. "She said, 'But Mr. Vance, how would Ibe able to hide my hearing instrument? "I explained that there were many different types of hearing loss, each requiring a different fitting ... and that her impairment was what we call a perceptive or nerve type loss. Not able to hear herself talk, or control her voice . she had developed a typical, high- pitched nasal voice which would steadily get worse. "Her Acousticon fitting was the re- sult of a simple but efficient analysis . . and was the one model of 36 new Con- stellations that would give her maxt- nium correction. I then pointed out how with the new 'Invisible' earpiece she A. E. VANCE would be able to hear the way people with no impairment did . in a way so completely unnoticeable that even her closest friends wouldn't spot it. Needless to say she took the Acousticon .,.and, like thousands of others, is forever grateful that she attended our free hearing clinic." Leaving Mr. Vance's office I wonder- ed how anyone with a hearing loss could put off getting an Acousticon. Oh, yes .. they might feel self-con- scious for a short time. But think seriously, who is the conspicuous one? The person that is enjoying life witha normal personality ..or, the person who allows a hearing impairment to injure their health, irritate their fami- lies, risk their business and spoil their whole outlook on life? If there is any doubt about your decision . . . See Mr. Vance. Acousticon can quickly pro- vide the answer ! A, E.
