JOY HABIT CAN BE CULTIVATED.
By Angela Morgan.

will. The secret lies in simply bringing
ones voluntary thought to bear in releas-
ing the sort of current he desires.
No one really desires to be cross. un-
happy, ill-tempered, miserable; and no
one need be once he fully understands the
secret.
The average person is the victim of his
moods because he does not understand
On the morning that he gets up ION the
wrong side of the bed'' he labors under
the delusion that he is helpless in the grip
of the blues"
Instead of speaking words that would
release the currents of gladness and har-
mony about him he does just the opposite
thing. He gives vent to words that cor
respond with his grouchy mood, and the
more he says the worse he feels OF
course each word he utters carries it's
own vibration of i'll humor or hatefulness
or misery.
There is vastly more potency in mere
words than any of us at present can con-
ceive. 1 have frequently been amazed In
my own experience to observe how COM
pletely the utterance of positive words
can change ones mental state for better
or for worse.
Joy comes through the speaking of JOY
words, and no other words can possibly
release it. One can not hope to release
the cheer current by pressing the misery
button.
Let one realize that the joy forces are
thrilling and pulsing all about him, need
ing only his voluntary word to Hberate
them for his benefit. Peace, good will and
radiance are ours all the time, but we
must certainly make the right effort to
release them, must speak the words that
will start the currents we desire.
Do you wish to be happy to-day
buoyant, alert, alive, eager for work and
opportunities? Do you wish to be glad
every day of your Ife-glad in the glad
ness of this beautiful world? You may
be. Turn on the cheer current by your
own positive words. No matter how you
feel in the beginning, say. II am happy,
l am radiant, love all the world" You
will be rewarded by glow of happiness
that will transform your day

to one of his range of activities. Mr..
Clark journeyed thither and began open

7 HAVE found that It becomes easy to
create the joy habit when one thinks
of cheer and happiness as definite
forms of energy, real as currents of heat
or electricity which may be released at
will by the human mind just as a light
may be turned on bysth pressure of an
electric button.
Ones thought or word is the liberating
| agency. The utterance of positive joy
words releases the joy currents and Gre
ates the mood of magic. The utterance
of bitter. hateful words lets loose the tor
mcnting currents of bitterness and discord
which create the mood of wretchedness.
Simple enough. certainly. No doubt
some one will say. "why, that is some
thing I have known all my life. We all
know that"
In one sense all of US have known it "all
the time" In another sense most of us
have been ignorant of it. Had we really
known" we would have ceased from our
talk of blue moods and blue days, of
dumps and discouragements and "out-
of-sorts' feelings long ago.
There is no use claiming we have
known it all the time" unless by our
knowledge are able to create at will
the moods We desire.
What would we think of person who
worked day after day in a gloomy room,
railing at the darkness, when all the while
ne could have reveled in a food of light
by pressing an electric button in the wall9
We would certainly call that person
densely ignorant or stupid. And that is
just what most of US are when it comes
to the question of mental control. We
have faint understanding indeed of the
mighty potency stored in the thoughts we
think and the words we utter
If we really understood. If we really
approached an intelligent comprehension
Of the great law, we would definitely ap-
ply that knowledge for the safety and
well-being of our minds, just as we now
apply our understanding of other prac-
ticaI laws for the safety and well-being
of our bodies.

agency to bring that mood? He can If he
