mote about it.
IT WAS with gient i egret that 1 learned
of the death of Miss Mary Sinuott on
Monday afternoon at her home. IMti Kit
tenhouse Siiunie. She was a most lovable
and loved woman. And it seem- to me that
thcie bus scarcely ever been ti good w'oik
undertaken in this city that I can remember
in which she has not taken pint. She has
nlwnjs given freely of her lime and monej ,
and that theie will be inimj to call her
memory blessed thcie is little doubt.
She was the daughter of the late Ml. and
Mrs. Joseph V. Sinnott, the latter of whom
died on Christmas Day after un illness of
several months. MihS. Sinnott had been the
victim of one sf.ero illness after another
for n number of jenrs. but in -pite of her
illness and suffering she insisted on keep
ing up her good works, and on the ery dnj
of her death refused to have put off n inert -ing
Qf St. Vincent's Home committee that
was to take place at her home. In fact, it
made her happier to know that her colleagues
In the work were keeping up what she was
too weak to do. She was actiw- in war woik,
n patron of art and music and was greatly
interested in the School of Industrial Art. .
Miss Sinnott was a sister of Mrs. Kjnn
Devereux. whose husband was a nephew of
the late Archbishop Hjan, and of Clinton,
John and Clarence Sinnott. A, biothcr, the
late Joseph Sinnott, was ut onetime a mem
ber of the stafl of the old' l'liiladclphia
Times, of which Colonel A. K. Mi-Chirr
was editor. His father, the late Joseph l
Sinnott, endowed a room at the rnivri'vitv
Hospital for new -paper men and wonienjn
memory of his son. Miss Sinnull was eu
cntcd at the foment of the Sacred Heart,
then at 1XU Walnut stieet, and was guiil
uated ut Kden Hall. Two of her aunts, the
lato Mothers Agnes and Anna Sinnott,
were religious of that society of nuns. Her
uncle wns Monsignur Jnmes 1'. Sinnott, ice
tor of St. ClinilrVu Church, this city, and
Ilishop Mctiiulej, of the I'hilippinc Islands,
was a cousin, '

Hun Treatment for Shell Shock

Sir -A recent newspaper in tide repents

bureau. Medical literatuie adopted this
term long since, and some authorities held
that the condition developing under the stress
of the battlefront argued n "pre-war psy
cbonqurosis," tlm patient assumed to have
collapsed because of an itiuntc or pre-existing
neurosis.
In this altruistic day it is not surprising
to rend in the article referred to that the
German "ifuthority," Kaufman, whose
"brutality treatment" had a lamentable
xogtie, is'dlscrcditcd, and that our war risv
btueuii's experts have found sanitarium
treatment In comfortable anil attractive sur
lounilings the benellciul method. And it Is
also refreshing to learn that these experts
arc lindlng the coutrost in tension nnd con
