CONCENTRATION is
REMEDY FOR NERVES
Sir Hugh Allen. Director of
Royal College Of Music,
Recommends Tt.

LONDON, Oct. 29.-whst are we to DO
about our nerves? 1t is the question
which bothers half the world to-day.
Everybody who has to work under the
eye OF critic. from the orator who
wonders how his speech Is going TO the
shop girl who Is aware of the shop
walkers eye while she is selling a yard
OF ribbon, Is liable to an attack OF what
we call nerves"
To all such sufferers. says the Daily
Maii, Sir Hugh Allen spoke when. as
director of the Royal College OF Music,
he addressed the students OF the college
at the opening Of the new term. He was
speaking mainly to those who are or
win become public performers of music
but his words apply TO everybody.
TT Is not too much to say" he de-
clared. shat nerves are the most needed
ingredient in the performers outfit and
that nervousness has brought distress
II not disaster to countless musicians.
Nerve and nervous are words, which
have the most diverse meaning In our
language. We speak of nerve as Of
something strong, vigorous, as courage
and boldness and assurance. and Of
nerves as disordered state of the
nervous system.
by nerves we mean that miserable
state which attacks US at ell turns OF
the road. when We have 10 play or sing,
when we don't know our work, when we
are late. when we have to do things in
front OF others. Personally I
know Of no greater discomfort.
81 have known a man called upon 20
speak suddenly among friends to be abb
solutcly dumb, and another to have Ut
tered string Of uninteliigible nonsense
have known conductors who confessed
10 a feeling OF complete blankness at
the beginning OF a concert.
Now the paradox Of the whole affair
Is that you cannot be a really good per-
former or conductor unless you are
nervous Gin a sense ana in the right de-
giee). and you cannot be II you are
nervousl Tho case II really this: II Is
only those who have nervous suscepti-
bility and dellcately balanced and wei
controlled nervous system who will ever
make an appeal by their performance &"
Beyond the need for obtaining their
full knowledge Of the matter In hand
Sir Hugh advises the nervous ito culti-
vate an interest in work, an interest
which becomes absorbing, which means
that our minds are taken up with what
we are doing-not with why we are do
Ing 1t. This absorption prevents our
attention from wandering. The power
OF attention which enables US to con-
centrate upon what we are doing. and
70 become unsusceptible to outside in
fuences. but II IN also the best way to
build up chsrs cter."

+. 7. DAWSON SEEKS
ROOSEVELT'S SEAT
Son Of Banker Making Race
for Place in Assembly on
Republican Ticket.

LOCUST vALLHY, L. l.. Oct. 2s.-New
York residents Of Nassau county are
watching with much interest the cam
paign which IL being carried on by
Frederick Trubes Dawson. son of Mr..
and Mrs. Henry p. Dawson OF Locust
Valley and New York, who Is candi-
date for member Of Assembly on the
Republican ticket.
Young Dawson aspires to the place
made vacant by the resignation several
months ago Of Theodore Roosevelt.
present Assistant Secretary of the Navy.
Mr.. Dawson In making the first step In
politics la giving up an opportunity OF
becoming eventually member of the
firm of J. p. Morgan 4 Co, Of which his
father Is = partner.
II would much rather 60 into politics
and have career like that than to be-
como one OF the drm," Mr.. Dawson
recently told reporter for The NEW
YoRx HnRAIp. II want nothing better
than to 80 to Albany for several years.
AZ . groundwork to what hope will be
q political career. The diplomatic or
administrative end Of public life has
never appealed to me. want to get
right next to people who are doing
things.'
Mr.. Davison's ambitions are shared
by his wife. who was Miss Dorothy
Peabody, daughter Of the Rev. Endicott
Pea body. head master of Groton School.
Mr.. Dawson was graduated from Yale
and has been taking law course at
Columbia. During the war he served in
the French Ambulance Corps and later,
when America became belligerent. or
ganized the First Naval Air Unit, the
nucleus Of Americas air force In France
FHe was injured in q fight over Hunt
ington Bay IN July. 1917, and was crip-
pied for many months In hospital. He
was lauded by Rear-Admiral w. H.
Sims I'm his book. THE Victory at Sea, "
and upon the latter's recommendation

Medal.
Mr.. Dawson was secretary to Herbert
Parsons at the Republican National
Convention. Chicago. and later to
Charles d. Hilles. His opponent in the
coming election Is Fontaine Taliaferro
of Hicksvilie. L. l.. q war veteran with a
fIns record. As the town Of Oyster Bay
rarely goes anything but Republican in
a general election, Mr.. Davison's friends
feel that he has already won the AS
sembly seat.

LUCKY HALF DOLLAR
UNDER SHIPS MAST
Ceremony for the Deering at
Bath, Me-, Shows Sailors
SuperstitiOus.
OLD PRACTICE REVIVED
Blue Paint on Vessel Still Ta-
boo and Moon Believed to
Affect Weather.

Special Despatch to THE New YolK HERALp.
BANGOR, Me-, Oct. 29.-Odd fancies Of
sailors. commonly classified as super
stitions of the sea, still persist In this
very practical age, as was demonstrated
at Bath the other day when a silver
half dollar was placed under a new
mast stepped In tho schooner Gardner
G. Deering to bring the vessel gooA
luck. True, the Deering needs q change
of luck for the better. she having been
through all sorts of trouble on her last
voyage, including the murder Of her
master by negro cook. but the placing
of the silver under the heel Of her new
mast was not the act Of any Of the crew,
but Of one Of the owners. who is gener-
ally accredited with an abundance of
good sense.
This practice of putting silver coins
under vessels masts Is an old one and
was In high favor in Maine when the
State was turning out the square
riggers that won fame and wealth for
their owners in the heydey of American
deep water shipping before the CIV
war. Old time sailors believed that the
silver pieces brought luck as sincerely
as they believed that Friday. black cats
and escaping rats were unlucky. Some
of the old timers went further and made
1t a point to carry a Bible along with
them on every voyage, while the ex-
treme Of faith in luck tokens was Illus
trated in the person OF one salt who.
when a schooner was built for him at
Bangor, insisted not only upon putting
silver dollars under her masts. but upon
carrying the Bible and portrait OF
Abraham Lincoln In her cabin, while
he carefully arranged for the launching
to take place on an IL o'clock tide on
the Fourth of July.
"She's got the silver dollars under her
masts and Abe Lincoln and tho NSiole
in her cabin, besides the American
eagle with both claws full of arrows
for a. figurehead, and IL all those and
fairly good handling won't bring her
luck. then, b'gosh, there ain't no luck"
declared the ancient mariner.
No genuine old time sailorman looks
with favor upon blue paint anywhere on
A. vessel. Crews have been known to
refuse to Join q vessel because OF her
forecastle being painted blue. and 1t is
we'll remembered that three masted
schooner. gaudily decorated in blue, was
roundly cursed as a breeder of fogs and
head winds no longer ago than 1880
Scientists may demonstrate TO the sat
isfaction of everybody else that the
moon has no influence whatever upon
the weather, but they can't make sailor
men believe It,
With them the moon Is to be con-
suited on all occasions and everything
arranged according to 1.-THE signs" One
old salt used to declare that all rain
storms of any account began on tbs
ebb tide-that II rain began to fall on thu
flood tide 1t would be only a brie1
shower.

DEPARTMENT STORE
SALES DROP IN SEPT.
Show Loss During Year but
Gain Since August.

September sales of department stores
in the New York Federal Reserve Dis
trict declined per cent. in conpari-
son with those Of September. 1920, a
larger percentage Of decline than that
shown in August. according to the
monthly bulletin of the New York Fed
eral Reserve Bank. The larger drop
was due to a certain degree. It was said,
to lower prices for new fall goods. Sales
may have been affected by the cumu-
lative influence of unemployment and
reduced earnings.
"It appears still TO be true. however"

transactions is as large as last year.
