Self-COnfdence.


If you are failure, if you are un-
happy and despondent, you may sec
the person who is most to blame by
stepping to the loking-glass!
It's sad, but true!
When you begin to succeed you may
put it down as a sure thing that you
have commenced to believe in your
self.
Through the principle of auto-sug-
gestion you are constantly urging
yourself on to greater achievements
or defeating your aims, to the extent
that you have faith in yourself or lack
it,
Wrapped up in that wonderful brain
of yours you have all the potential
ability which you need with which to
succeed in any undertaking that is
possible Of accomplishment
You are the only person on earth
who can cut the fetters> which bind
that force and withhold it from use.
The thoughts which you hold in
your own mind are being constantly
registered in the minds Of those with
whom you come in contact This is
scientifically proven fact. Can you
not see, then, how necessary it is for
you to think well of yourself Car
you not see why you ought to believe
in your ability to accomplish all that
you undertake.
The line which marks the difference
between the successful and the un-
successful man is definite and easily
removed One believes that he can
do all that he undertakes and goes
ahead and does it; the other one be-
lieves he cannot accomplish anything
so he never begins!
II you want to witness a marvellous
transformation in yourself, commence
now and for ten days stand before a
mirror for ten minutes each day, look
yourself squarely in the eyes and say
II believe in you: you can finish
everything you start; you can induce
people to like you; you can get people
to favor you by first favoring them;
you can win peolpe's confidence by
placing your confidence in them" The
result will be startling By Napoleon
Hill in Hills Golden Rule Magazine.

Facts Versus BOlsheyism.

Beat the Bolshevistic tendencies
with facts. Facts are better than
political arguments.
Instead of class-consciousnes let
us have industry ry-conciousness Glass
appeal Is poison.
Ours is a nation of all the people.
The belief in class-interests, class
prejudices, class hatreds, is fatal.
We must believe in our government
in the American idea. and disbelieve
in the idea that we are under class
rulership.
II there are selfish classes they
must be absorbed in all-embracing
policies of justice to all citizenship.
Facts about industries presented in
this paper are worth more than all the
appeals to class hatred.
One hundred facts about payrolls,
improvements and progress are more
potent than martial law.
Shoot bolshevistic tendencies to
shreds by handing out the facts Of
production here at home.
Our country is not going to the dogs
and the Reds won't get us but it is
going to take constant and untiring
effort by Americas brainy men and
women to counteract and destroy the
present era of unrest and discomfort
and finally bring this nation to an
even keel We are not out Of the
woods yet but we are getting our
bearing.

Shoes, Stockings and Tin Cans.

Think of the billions of dollars that
are handled by American banks with
out a loss of a'dollar to depositors.
This is a record to be proud of and
is in marked contrast to the banking
business of the past.
Banking has been stabilized in this
country until it is next to impossible
to have bank failure entailing loss
to depositors.
The rapid increase in bank deposits
is largely due to the fact that the pub
lie is becoming convinced that modern
banks are the safest places in which
to keep money. The old shoe, the
stocking and~the tin can are going in
to the discard.

Another interesting runor that l.
being circulated freely makes it's ap-
pearance in connection with the spec
ial session of the legislature called by
Governor Boyle. 1t is that the gov
ernor, in issuing the call for the ses-
sion, was Influenced by pressure from
the powers that be" in Democratic
headquarters at Washington. Promi-
nent Nevada women who were instru-
mental in securing the special session
call were informed by leaders
at Washington, SO the story goes
some time before Governor Boyle
acted, that he would make the call
and that he had been urged to do sc
by party leaders.
Information from the East is to the
effect that Mrs. Carrie Chapman Cat
played the time-honored game Of
matching one party against the other
in obtaining ratification results. JUS
at this particular time neither of the
great parties car afford to curry dis
favor among the women voters ant
take a chance on the female vote
swinging the election next fall as i
did four years ago when Wilson car
ried ten out of twelve suffrage states
with eight of the ten being normally
Republican. For this reason there
might be considerable tt the repor'
that the governor wasn't actuatet
solely by his own desires when hi
issued the special session call.

RENO PASTOR MAY
RUN FOR SENATOR
(By spellier in the Reno Gazette)

(By Spellier in the Reno Gazette)
About the most interesting bit Of
political gossip to be disseminated in
some time made its appearance wheI
1t was given out that certain infuen.
tial Republicans are endeavoring to
induce Rev. Brewster Adams, pastor
of the Reno Baptist church to become
a candidate for the Republican sena-
torial nomination this year. The re-
port that there was a possibility that
Adams would receive strong financial
and moral support came from the
Eastern part of the state and was
rapidly circulated about Reno, where
the minister is known and liked BY
practically every man, woman and
child.
Adams lost no time in saying. when
questioned about the truth of the ru

never has discussed with any one and
something that he never has given

sations he had, however, with promi-
nent Republicans, Immediately after
the rumor of his probable candidacy
came to the surface, the impression
was gained by many that he will be
a candidate if he can be shown that
there is sufficient demand among the
prominent men of the party.
Probably no man in the state is bet
ter known that Rev. Brewster Adams
and certainly few, if any. are better
qualified for the office than he is. H

Quoted during the war for various

steered clear although he once told
some of his friends that, when h
thought the opportune and important
work he had undertaken in connec-
ton with his parish had been COM
pleted. he intended getting into the
political game solely for the ex-
perience.
