ing Traffic Regulations

lowing a statement several days ago
by Chief Kline 10 the effect that the
city traffic ordinance was still in eff
feet in spite OF a contrary law
enacted by the general assembly. de-
clared emphatically that II u the
state law that should be observed
instead OF the city ordinance.
South Bend - said 10 save been
the only city in the state that did
not instruct its traffic officers 20 OBJ
serve the state law and abandon any
city ordinance that might be on the
books OF the city.
Followed Old Law.
Chief Kline. however. insisted that
South Bends city ordinance regu-
lating traffic should be observed. and
that all north and south traffic had
the right Of way in spite Of the fact
that the state law provides that
vehicles approaching from the right
must % given the right OF way.
Friday. however. Chief Kline
changed his mind. He now says that
the state law is in effect and that
the city ordinance is abandoned AS
a result OF the delay in South Bend
conforming its traffic regulations
with the state law, much traffic con-
fusion has been occasioned in the
city. particularly in the downtown
part OF the city.
Hereafter, however, the state law

Agents Apply
Psychology

The last time q book agent cor
nered you. do you remember wheth-
er he dropped his pencil during the
conversation: II he did, 1t prob
ably wasn't an accident. but just an
example of applied Psychology.
The worst obstacle a book agent
has to overcome Is to get the pros
pective customers to sign on the dot
ted line, and often, the mere offer
ing of a pencil causes him to draw
back. One Of the agents problems.
therefore, Is to get a pencil into
your hand 80 that II will be there
at the moment of decision.
So he drops his pencil. In nine
cases out OF ten the innocent VIC
tim will stoop and pick 1t Up. as an
act OF courtesy. That is the agents
cue to have both hands engaged so
that he cannot take the pencil back.
adm he will keep right on talking
until you forget about IL.
Finally he works up to the climax,
points to the dotted line and, 10 and
behold! you have a pencil in your
hand all ready to do the trick.

Hygienic
Living
By Brice Belden, M. D.

Dy DIICc Dclucl, III. ~.
1YGIENIC living is more than
ever necessary under the
strain of our present arti-
ncial existence, and hygienic meas
ures can be applied to almost every
phase OF our daily lives from both
the mental and physical points of
view. However. an important pre-
caution on the mental side lies in
avoiding too much stress on the i'm
portance of physical hygiene.
In other words. concentrating on
the subject OF the care of the body
to an excessive degree NAV in
time bring about a morbid condi-
tion Of the mind.
Too much attention given to care
OF the body soon creates a condi-
tion in which the patient becomes
fearful that he is not doing ex-
actly the right thing or the best
thing for his health. Patients of
this sort are called hypochondriacs.
and when they have reached this
point they have probably neutral
lied all the benefit of the hygienic
measures they have tried by wear.
ing themselves out with worry
concerning these very measures.
The foregoing cases represent
an extreme point of view and the
patients might have found greater
benefit In ignoring the laws of
hygiene than in worrying them
selves i'll over them. On the other
hand, however, there is the ex-
treme of ignoring physical all
ments and trying to overcome
them through the various forms Of
mind cure
In the latter class Of cases an
attitude Of mind may be reached
which will make bearable for
time some real ailment, but In cases
of serious illness this attitude may
result in deplorablc state of af-
fairs, as. for instance, when surgery
applied at an earlier stage might
have cured the patient or saved his
life.
However, mental hyginene, used
In conjunction with intelligent ap-
plication of the laws of health in
their connection with tho care of
the body, has an important place.
provided that worry Is not an ac-
compartment OF tho treatment
To obtain the desired results
from any hygtenic measure II Is
necessary. In some degree at least,
to satisfy tho mind along with the
body.

a check the 6rst of each month

Then there is the woman who
took up dressmaking. She had

and her own. She had a knack.
Her husband came back from the
war and resumed his position as
clerk in a big establishment. He
does his bit, but It's his wife who
pays most of the bills for the
charming little house and who
pays the board and maintenance of

There's the woman in the ad-
