with the results Of our meeting in Ac-
ada Parish, La" said Harry F. Kapp,
American Bureau Representative for
the states Of Oklahoma, Arkansas, Mis-
sissippi. and Louisiana, who, with Ex-
tension Workers of the Louisiana State
University, E. L. Bruner, Of St. Ian
dry Parish, F. M. Cooper and M. c.
Graham of Arkansas, are placing the
farm bureau idea before the farmers
and business men.
Two things we try to keep before
the farmer and they are the facts that
he has the biggest job in the world
and that he should not try to go into
the merchandising business as some
farm organizations have done in the
past, and the other is to keep out Of
politics. As for sticking together, when
a farmer becomes member Of the
bureau and signs commodity con-
tract for five years he can only GET
out Of it by doing three things, lesv-
ing the states, cease growing the com

The farmer has not co-operated with

become excited, but everyone should
listen with attention, and accept or re-
ject the proffered suggestion as the In
diyidual prediction determines.
The object Of holding the psychoIo-
gical meetings is to give everyone an
opportunity to- express any idea consid-
cred of value to the membership. There
is to be no faultfinding or harsh criti-
cism Of any proposition advanced.
There is no compulsion to be- exercised
upon anyone from without to change
his eating or drinking or manner Of
dressing or other personal habits as
long as there is willing and cheerful
cooperation in the industrial and So
cial activities of the Colony.
Change Of personal conduct is ex-
.pected TO proceed from interior inn
pulse as growth in knowledge and un-
derstandinig convince of its desirable
ity and beneficence.. Live and learn;
concede to others the same considera-
ton and self-determination you ask for
yourself and the general intercourse Of
the members Of the Colony with one
another will become JOY forever.
With the development Of the right spir-
it in the Colony it will become new
Mecca which all those weary Of the
strife and hate and exploitation of plu-
tocratic monopoly will seek. Ii will be-
come safe retreat and harbor of
refuge from the storm and destruction
that is about to encompass the world.
Peace and plenty can be had for ev-
eryone just to the extent that kind
ness and mutual consideration become
the dominant attitude in human aft
fairs.

People have learned that, at least in
some things. it is to their advantage
to act in concert for their common in
terest. Collective bargaining, insisted
on by Isbo. unionists, is cooperation
on the wage plane of employment.
Bitter experience had taught each
worker that standing Internationally is
olated from other workers alone by
himself he was practically unable to
improve his chances for better income
Now if cooperation has been the
means Of securing for the workers bet
ter terms from the employing class than
Individual bargaining could gain, is it
not reasonable TO conclude that by
working comparatively for themselves
they can retain the full product Of their
labor without having to yield up a big
part of it as profit to the employers !?

own welfare by obstructing co-opera-

The Genetive Power
Of Integrating INSTALLATION


During the last two meetings Of the
mental science class at Newllano, the
ability of INSTALLATION has been under
discussion. In order to show the stu
dents what can be accomplished BY
the process, the following quotation
was read from an article BY Mr.. Grif-
filth Jones, member Of the California
bar and published in the "Chiroprac-
tor and Clinical Journal:
To possess the power Of visualize
ton is to enjoy great blessing. Lei
me illustrate what ! mean. A young
law student entered the office Of very
prominent lawyer. The law student
was preparing for his bar examination.
During every spare minute he was
reading the decisions pertaining 10 Ii
bel. He surrounded himself with ev-
cry textbook written on libel law. The
prominent attorney in whose office he
was, constantly reminded him that he
would be asked nothing pertaining to
libel law in the examination for which
he was preparing.
Why do you, asked the attorney,
waste your time studying libel law,
when you will not be asked any ques-
ton pertaining to this subjectp Do
you not realize that if you pass the
bar examination, there will be no pos
sibility Of your securing libel cases?
The newspaper proprietors are the peo-
pie who retain lowyers for the purpose
of trying libel cases. A young lawyer
can never hope to be retained by daily
or weekly newspapers. Confine your
self to those subjects which are re-
CURED for the bar examinations and in
which you will be required to render
opinions when you graduate
But the young lawyer dreamed Of
the day when he would be standing
in crowded court rooms, representing
big newspapers, addressing juries in
libel cases. He did not tell his en-
ployer anything concerning his dreams,
for had he done so he would have been
laughed at and ridicuIed.. But he per-
sisted in studying libel law.
Six months from the time that he
passed the bar examination this young
student represented the United States
Press in the biggest libel cases that had
ever been tried in the State of Califor-
MIA.
Let me give another illustration.
Six years ago two young men met in
a South Pasadena home. They had
one hundred and ninety-eight dollars
between them. They bought some po-
tatoes, fried potato ships in their kit
chen and yisualized the day when they
would have string Of stores through |
out the country, with girls dressed in
Holland Dutch costumes, and wind |
mill as a trademark.
Had these two young men, selling
potato chips from wagon, expressed |
in words their dreams TO anyone. else,
they would have been ridiculed. To-
day we have the Van De Ramps Hol-l
and Dutch Bakers of Southern Cali
fornia. .

MAKE LIFE WORTH LIVING

There was time when people did
MOI know much worth while about
farming. Everything was done on a
hit-or-miss proposition. When a farm
If just happened to harvest a good
crop ii was credited TO divine provi-
dence, and when there was failure
partial or complete, the farmers ne
glect or his ignorance or wrong action
never were considered as having CON
sributed thereto. IN the due course Of
time, however, il was discovered thai
understanding Of the requirements for
the perfect growth Of the plant and
making systematic provisions 10 meet
them would make definite results a
certainty. In order 10 grow web.
plants require essential foodstuffs; and
when provided with balanced ration,
in assimiIable form. they will flourish
and develop in perfection.
Animals also were left largely to
shift for themselves and fare as well
Of as i'll as they were able. That pro-
per selection Of superior specimens for
breeding and proper feeding would inn
prove the breed was never thought Of.
But in the course of time here also
it was found by experimentation that
BY care in breeding and proper feed
ing wonderful Improvements can be
secured.
Does it seem unreasonable to assume
that study of the requirements Of
human life and experimentation with
different fcodstuffs, to discover the
most suitable and proper balance Of
the various elements needed, will prove
equally beneliclal2 Some people be-
lieve that it does not matter what one
eats as long as it is relished and no
excess is INDUCED in. However, ex-
perimentation has shown that just as in
the case of plants and animals SO also
for human beings a proper selection
and well-balanced diet will perform
wonders in restoring invalids to health
and in gaining control over the pas
sions
Al the psychological meeting at
Newllano OH Thursday night, March
9Th. Prof. Martin discussed the I'M
cooked fruit diet at length. on which
he and his family entirely subsist. They
are pictures Of perfect health and full
of vim and energy. and as good a !
demonstration in favor of that diet as
anyone could wish for.
While this diet is discussed as well
as other viewpoints on the diet ques-
ton there is no disposition or inten-
ton on the part Of anyone to impose
any particular strict diet on anyone or
upon all the colonists. The matter Of
what any one prefers to eat is left
entirely 10 the determination Of each
and So far as the resourc-
Is of the Colony permit, to everyone
is conceded the choice of whatever di-
ct is preferred.
There is consequently no reason to
