THE STUDY HABIT
By H. Addington Bruce

x1OU have awakened to the truth that
I mental Improvement is one of the great
essentials to getting on il the world
Mad you appreciate that earnest study~-inten-
5ive and extensive reading and thinklng-ls
essential to mental Improvement.
But you fear that it is now too late to be-
gin to improve your mind More than this,
you feel that in youl case mental improve
ment is particularly difficult because you
have never been studious.
Nevertheless, you can readily enough make
yourself studious if you really wish to do so.
At any age you can profit from your studious-
ness. 1t is all question of acquiring the
study habit. And the study habit can be ac-
CURED by anybody, like any other habit.
You already have habit let us say, of
smoking. This dates from your eighteenth
or nineteenth year, perhaps even earlier.
Today you moke almost instinctively.
After every meal you light pipe, cigar, or
a cigarette. Perhaps at every convenient OPP
portunity you indulge in smoke. You may
smoke the first thing in the morning, the
last at night.
But there was time when you did not
smoke at all. You wildly remember your
first experience with smoking. Thereafter
for some time you smoked rarely, anC at the
cost Of real effort of will. But with each
repetition smoking became more natural
to you. Until at last it was = settled habit.
You can acquire the study habit in precise
ly the same way DIS you acquired the habit
of smoking.
Select some subject concerning which you
desire to increase your knowledge. Buy a
few simple books relating to this subject. Re-
solve to give half an hour nightly to the
reading of one of these
Let nothing interfere with carrying our
your resolve. Even if you devote the major
part of the evening to recreation, get in your
half hour of study before you go to bed For
this reason, so well put by the psychologist
William James,
CONTINUITY of training is the great means
OF making the nervous system act infallibly
right. Each@lapse is like the letting fall of
ball of string which one is carefully wind
ing up; single slip undoes more than
great many turns will wind again. There
fore, never suf an exception to occur I'M
til the new habit is securely rooted"
Moreover, regularity in study will uncon-
sc1ously increase your desire to study, Just as
regularity in smoking increases the desire to
smoke So that presently you will find your
self not merely willing but glad to give an in
creasing portion of your leisure to the better
ment of your mind
At first, to be sure, you may find it irksome
to settle down to serious reading, even for
half an hour. Anti-study habits will draw
you this way and that. Resist them and per-
sist.
1t is the doing, not the wishing, that, after
all, is the great thing in habit formation. The
wishing will fade away ii doing does not fol-
low. Whereas doing intensifes wishing, and
thereby makes the doing itself ever easier
ever more habitua1.

Editorial Echoes.

General Pershings salary is fixed by
congress at $4,000 year, and IN the ac'
creating his office the president is author
lied to fix his allowances in lieu of quarters
heat and light, and for travel, transporta.
ton and forage. These have been set at
$500 year, making General Persh1ng' s
total income from his service in the army
$4,000.
Compared with the money rewards given
by the allies to their victorious military
commanders this annual compensation Is
modest, and General Pershing will get II
only as long as he stays on active service
Yet we believe it is a more substantial in
come than the nation has ever before con-
ferred on a man for military service. 1t
stands out conspicuously when 1t is recall
ed that none of the avail officers who fought
for US has been promoted to rank cores
bonding with that given to General Per
shing. In the distribution OF rewards for
services in the war army men got much the
better of it as compared with Uncle Sam S
sailors
General Pershng's future is naturally in
teresting to all his fellow Americans. On
June 6 it was announced that he had sent
letter to Secretary Baker in which he
said that it seemed to him his duties as
general were mot likely to be of a charac-
ter that will require more than a portion
of his time, and that he felt that without
detrment to the service he might retire
when the army reorganization was complete
and be free to engage in something more
active" This decision was contingent upon
the continuation of the conditions then
existing, General Pershing declaring that
unless situation should develop to JUS
tify his remaining" he contemplated retir.
ing within the next few months.
Since this determination was made pub
lie there has been no further announce
ment of General Pershing's plans. The re-
organization of the army is we'll under way
though by no means completed. 1t has beer
suggested that General Pershing would
