REVEALED BY
DR.. HOUSE
Lecturer Begins Free Series
On Subject Of Religious
Psychology.

. DIR. e. L. House began a two
weeks series of free sermon lee
lures in Washington last evening
at the First Congregational Church.
In his lecture on the wonders
of the Mind he stated that there
were three realms of mind. the
conscious, the sub-conscious and
the uper-conscious. The last
named he says 10 his own contribu-
ton of psychology. In explanation
of these different realms OF mind,
DIR. House says "the conscious mind
Is a visible one, that Is, the mind
of the flesh, the reason, the VIII
and the judgment. The sub-con.
scious mind aids and helps the
conscious"
According to DR.. House every
child comes into the world with It's
sub-conscious mind active and con.
scious dawns later. The super.
conscious mind still later. when 1t
comes to it's knowledge of right or
wrong. The sub-conscious mind
governs the function Of the body.
1t never sleeps, 1t has the idea OF
time, but II has not reason, viii
or judgment. It IL like the dynamo
furnishing the electric power for
the light. 1t furnishes the power
for the body and for the conscious
mind. The sub-conscious self is
the natural and splendid self. The
conscious self is artificial and
weak.
DR.. House states that the man
who Is conscious of self never ap-
peals to the audience. The secret
Of intellectual success is to get
hold Of the subconscious mind. 1t
can be controlled by suggestions,
1t has tremendous power and II
capable of extraordinary strength.
Your mind is q chemist, fear, worry,
hate and anger have certain un-
favorable psychological reactions.
