DECLARES TIMIDITY
IS BAR TO SUCCESS
Mrs. Gertrude Chambers Says Power OF
Suggestion is Dangerous.

Fear and timidity are the greatest
obstacles in the path to success in the
majority of cases of men who are trained
thoroughly along technical lines but
not otherwise" said Mrs. Gertrude Cham
bers in the last of her series of free pub
lie lectures at the Garden Theatre. Her
subject was "A Study of the Subcon-
scious Mind"
Mrs. Chambers says that we do not
begin to know the power of the law of
suggestion.
"In mental analysis she declared, 1--WE
have found out that practically every
person is suffering in some form from
the effects of suggestions given to them
when they were a child, usually by their
parents or nurses, when they were emo
tional.
II say when they were emotional for
we know that when a child or even a
person, is under emotion their subcon-
scious mind is open and sensitive to
impressions as it is at no other time
In closing, Mrs. Chambers wished all
whom she would not see again the very
best of happiness and success that could
be obtained by wishing, and told them
that though she would not have them
in her class, she hoped that she had
been able to serve them in some way
that would make their lives better and
more worth living, as hers was a work
of service, and to those whom she would
see in her private class Thursday night
she promised to start them on the road
to health. happiness and success.
