MIND A STEPLADDER
 LEADING TO SUCCESS
Lecturer on Psychology Tells Bible Class How to Get Most Out
 Of Life.

Mrs, Harriet Lucia McCollum Wal the speaker at the weekly meeting o Evoryman's Bible class at Trinity M F. church yesterday morning, hci subject being "The Psychology oi Perpetual Success"
 In her talk. Mrs. MeCollum made the statement that mind reigns SUI preme. Mind Is the creative power and mind even determines ones po- stion In life. She said that this docs not mean the reasoning mind, tho mind that is on tho surface. tho one used every day, but tho subconscious mind, the deep thought mind. Psy- chology is the study of the subeon- scious mind. Its law is the law of life, she said
 Mrs. McCollum also said that the mind makes people what they arc in life. Some will say that they arc too old to put psychology into practice, that their lives are almost over. But people may always be what they might have been, she asserted. It is never too late. She said that she was forty years of age before she started .he study of psychology.
 People should be supreme along their line of endeavor," said the speaker. "They must first find their position in life, what they are best fitted for. If you know as much or q little more about a certain line of work than others, you will always be in demand. You will advance if you know how"
 Use of Spare Time.
 The use of one's spare time to at- tain coveted position in life was all so stressed by the speaker. She said that life is made or wrecked by the use of spare time. If man studies and works to improve himself and desires to make himself better than the other fellow he will find success, provided that he finds the place in

WARNS OF DANGERS
Senator Elect Says Country Faces
 Threat of Public Ownership

Omaha, Dec. 4.--R. B. Howell of Omaha, republican, U. $. senator-elect in a statement declared the United States is in danger of public owner ship of railroads on a wholesale scale through action of the railway capi- talist." If the government ever goes into the railroad business it should begin with one line as an experiment instead of taking over all the roads at one time" he declared.
 Tt would be fatal mistake Mir. Howell's statement said, flor the gov- ernment to take over bodily the rail- road system of this country We are not prepared for it. No man living would see the end of the readiustment period and before that time the public would be in revolt"

 Such an overwhelming majority had never been registered before one way or the other, on any proposition put to vote. The socialists cast only 23,o00 more votes than the number of signatures collected for demanding the plebscite. The pro- posal was voiced today that the num- Der of signatures sufficient to obtain plebiscite be increased.

EAST KILLINGLY IS
 VISITED BY FLAMES
East Killingly Worsted Company I Destroyed With Loss of About
 S2OOOO.

Danieson, Dec. 4.--On the eve of it's opening for business today the plant of the East Killingly Worsted company in East killingly, three miles from here, was destroyed last night by fire with an estimated dam age of $20,000. The plant had been remodeled and restocked and was to have opened today with a force of 30 persons.
 The fire started in the main mill, a four-story stone building, in which worsted and other material ready for manufacturing were stored. The flames spread rapidly and in a short time de- stroyed the entire plant. Fire ap- paratus was sent from this town but arrived too late to be of much value.
 While the cause of the fire is un- known neighbors said they heard an explosion just before the fire was discovered.
 The mill was bought about year ago by Charles R. Kapstein of Provi- dence, R. I. It was formerly known as the Whitestone Mill. The damage is partly covered by s15,00O insurance.

PEP YOUNG BEST
AT RIGHT FIELD
ON POLO GROUND
Farrell Sizes Up Outfield
Players in Pennant
Winning Teams
BY HENRY l.. FARRELL

NEW YORK, Sept. 19.-Right field
at the Polo Grounds is difficult pos
ition to play. The range which the
ordinary field provides is cut off by
the wall of the right field stand which
protrudes at an angle. Drives off the
wall have to be figured on an angle
basis almost like billiards.
Ross "Pep" Young, Giant right
fielder, is a good bal player on other
lots, but he shines on the Polo Grounds.
He has made an art of playing balls
off the tricky wall that no other
player can approach.
Young is also good all-around
fielder. He has good range back, he
can come in fast, he has far arm
and ordinarily quick thinking brain,
although he has been known to be out
smarted He usually bats higher than
he has done this year.
Johnny Tobin, the right fielder and
lead-off man for the St. Louis Browns,
no doubt could play the ball as well as
Young if he had as much experience.
Tobin is one of the five best hitters
in the American League. He is better
than a fair fielder although he does
get handcuffed at times ON hlgn ines.
In Bob Meusel and Babe Ruth, the
Yankees have two of the worst right
fielders in baseball. Ruth must be
given. credit for trying and Meusel
some eensure for not trying. With his
large waist line and his slowed. up
limbs, Ruth simply is not an outfielder
and. of course, for the same reasons,
J,o ;c not on in folder
Meusel formerly was a great asset
at the bat but he has slumped t9 Just
very mediocre baseball player. lie
has the greatest arm in baseball and
that lets him out.
Figuring that the opening games of
the series are to be played on the Polo
Grounds and perhaps the deciding
game, Young is the most valuable
player of the three, TObin is next by a
Slight margin and the Yank pair are
miles behind.

FL CENTRIC HIGH
PLANS FOR BIG
YEAR in SPORTS
Boys Start Try-out for Team
in Football As Other
Athletics Planned

FL Centre high schools enviable ath
letic record is to be upheld this year il
the plans of r. NJ. Armstrong, coach
of the various teams, are carried out
This afternoon Mr.. Armstrong issued
a call for a meeting at the athletic
grounds at which he addressed the
students on the necessity of maintain
ing the high standard of the past and
asked the support and cooperation OF
every student to that end. That he
will be given the best efforts of every
athlete in the school was certain from
the reception accorded him by the
students and large squad who turned
out for first football practice IN answer
to the coach IS call.'
It was not planned to do much of
anything today other than to give the
students an opportunity to meet the
coach and give him an idea of the ma
terial with which he will have to
work. Beginning tomorrow, active
work will be started for the football
season and plans also made for first
class basketball and track teams.
Many of the men who starred in all
three sports last year are back IN
school again this year, and the high
school teams in the other valley towns
are going to have a fight on their
hands to hold back FL Centre in any
Of the sports.
Mr.. Armstrong has had considerable
experience in athletics and comes here
well recommended. The foundations of
a top notch athletic system were laid
last year by Coach Schlosser and with
the new material coming into school
this wear, the outlook is more promis-
ing for Central Unior than for several
years past. Enthusiasm is running
high among the students, and the va
rious teams are certain to have the
full support of the student body. The
school spirit at Central Union has al
ways been of the highest calibre and
the traditions built up by the successes
of the past are to be added to consid
erably this. year, in the opinion OF
those who were present at this after
noon 8 meeting.

S. p. PRESIDENT
CONCERNED OVER
ICE CAR SUPPLY

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 19-Pres.
William Sproule of the Southern Pacific
today expressed himself as deeply
concerned about the small supply of
refrigerators available in this state to
handle ripening crops. He said that
Pacific Fruit Express which serves the
Southern Pacific with refrigerator ears
to move the fruit crop, has 10000 re-
frigerators in service, yet there are
less than 2000 of them west of Ogden,
Portland and FL Paso for loading. These
ears are built on joint account of Sou
thern and Union Pacific, each company
having a half interest in them, the
fruit business moving as far as Missouri
river mainly over. the route formed by
these two railroads.
Urgent calls have been made upon
the eastern roads for return of the re.
frigerators, also apon the ear service
division of the AqJ Jeriean Railway Asso-
citation, supplemented by representa-
tiOnS to the director of service of the
Interstate Commerce Commission. These
appeals have been reinforced by repre-
sentation to the Interstate Commerce
Commission, from whom acknowledge
ment has been received with the state
ment that everything possible is being
done to move refrigerator ears empty
without delay to originating territory.

Imperial Valley press., 1922-09-19

NEW YORK, Sept. 19.-No world s
championship is recognized in tennis
because the United States and England
never have been able to agree on n
tournament for the title.
England now maintains that the
British championships at Wimbledon
carry the world S championship, but
the United States will not admit it..
Even when William r. Tilden won
twice at Wimbledon, the United States
would not recognize him as the off
cial world s champion.
The trouble was caused by the action
of the British association and the In
ternational Tennis Federation in
awarding the world s championship in
perpetuity to Wimbledon.
The United States has maintained
that the championships should be al
ternated, so that America should get
to see some of the world s tournaments
and at the same time should not be
forced to carry the financial burden
of sending players every year to Eng
land.
Some conferences are to be held this
winter and it is almost sure that the
difficulties win be patched and that
the United States will agree TO enter
the International Federation.
Pressure has been brought to bear

Gerald Patterson, captain and vet
eran member of the Australian Davis
