tails. The relief board will deposit gold

"The process Of the cure is akin
to that which develops personal re-
sponsibility in individuals. Impose re-
sponsibilities, and II man or woman
has any inherent stability Of character
at all an effort will be made to assume
them conscientiously, II only for the
sake of the responsibilities. In just
the same way are nerves dispelled by
handling an automobile.
Emergencies without number are

Met, and met quickly. Decisions made
while running a high-horsepowered car

realizes that human life as well as the
safety Of the car Is at stake and, for
the sake Of the responsibilities, one
finds himself rising to meet them.
Emergencies fade away as provoca.
ton for hysteria and one learns to st
