BY the power and force of the mind
man learns to think for himself and
to master the problems of life.
Through trained eye Of the mind
man sees the things that to others are
unseeable with objective eyes Every
person is born Ideally constructed to
win success; but he needs to know
the strong points of his construction
SO that he may make the most Of them
and he should know with equal GER
tainty his drawbacks to success. Il
therefore ber7mes a BOUNDEN
duty, to say nothing of a common
sense protection for people to guard
against their shortcomings while they
press on along lines IN which they are
strong. None of us, unfortunately, is
so completely a master of himself
that he has not at times to infiet Sc

Kind, but friends, 1T PAYS, The
struggle, bolstered up by pluck WINS
EVERY TINE. A very necessary
requisite. however, is for people to
know the truth about what they are
doing.
Now, for one to possess the mental
strength to bring these things to pass
does not depend near so much upon
book learning as it does upon mental
or mind training. People whose
minds are trained get ahead faster
and earn success quicker and with
more lasting effect; because the power
of unfailing forces within them is mo
mentarily revealed to them they draw
upon it spontaneously and swiftly
and the result is lasting success.
1t is for the purpose of bringing to
our group the application OF these
truths that a branch of the Clio
School of Mental Sciences was found

How well the school has succeeded

where striving is needed many haYs
'triven, then forgotten or grew lax

# the immortal James T. Fields who
aid: r
consult your means, avoid the temp
tiers wiles,
'hun grinning hosts OF Hnreceipted
files,
ct Heaven-ey'd prudence battle with
desire,
And win the victory, though it be
through fire.
Then, there are those who have kept
teadily on. making each step a firm,
ubstantial one.
The school is proud of her students,
me and all; for the mere fact that an
Individual strove at all, places him in
class for commentator, and any
nay like the prodigal son, return to

triven constantly We bid them KEEP

or them which only souls who strive
re born to reap.
