this because It is according to
the social standard, she will
make her influence Of untold
value. But il she puts 1t this
way, You must do this because
it's what I'd do, she is laying
the ground for trouble.
Of course the person with the
domination complex is an egotist.
And since every human being is
born with an instinct to be him
self, the attempt to impose a
personality on someone else ID
going to end in disaster for some
one.
No two persons, however. close
their relationship, can live in
harmony unless each Is allowed
a certain amount Of tndepend-
ence.
Love is never given as 3 duty.
1t may be won, but never COM
manded That goes for respect
as well as love.
And oddly enough, the person
who succeeds in dominating an
other never is satisfied with
what he creates. Make your
child or your husband or your.
friend conform in every way to
your likes, wishes and ideals, and
what have you got? An echo.
And unless you're ever so much
better satisfied with yourself
than most persons are, you won't
care much for that echo!
OF course, the domination COM
plex is utterly selfish All will
to-power is. And it's dishonest.
You cannot steal another's m
1ivfduality, even IL you subg1i-
tute your own for it, and be
honest.

YHEN one man practices

countless others as well.
A number of years ago lived
a somewhat poorly paid minister
in a small New England town.
He believed in thrift. He believed
that economy is more a matter OF
determination than of circum-
stances.
So, of this minister's meager
salary, he saved a little year by
wear. In the course Of time he
and his helpful wife had laid by

About this time sickness came
+o him and to other members or
his family. He was advised that
a climate where the winters were
less severe might prolong his
years Of usefulness.
Taking the 81 900 he had saved
with 80 much patience, he set out
for a Southern State. He pur-
chased 1870 acres OF land near a
village by the sea. built home
and prospered. =
In the course OF time the land
passed to the old minister's son.
Meanwhile the village had become
a flourishing city. The young
man purchased more land adjoin-
irO the 18O acres inherited from
bis father. All this he improved
and developed as city property.
Today he is the head of great

children's every action, even their
thoughts, and actually live their
lives for them, and who assumes
the same attitude toward her hus-

It was the thrift of the New

COMMUNICATED
Rassctt Street Resident Discusses Oiling Roadway in Letter
 to Mayor.

Editor New Britain Herald:
 My attention has been called to the oiling of Dassett street the first of next week by Inc city.
 This information also recalls to my mind of reading an article recently in your paper where our city execu- tive, Mayor Paonessa, did attempt to explain the reason for the oil being carried into every house, and If I recall correctly, the mayor stated that 1t was because the roadbed did not soak mp enough of the oil as he expected 1t would. or should. This left naturally more oil on the road than is necessary.
 Could I make this suggestion to the mayor before Bassett street is oiled? Get Us use Bassett street for an eXample.) Have the oil covered completely with sand-let the sand take up oil and don't leave it to the roadbed proper 10 take 1t up.
 l am almost sure if my suggestion is carried out, the different houses will not have the damage brought into their property that has been done in the past, is being done at the present, and will continue to be done.
 MT. Mayor, at the present time there is sand distributed all along Rassett street, and it is safe to state that the amount put along the curb- ing will not begin to cover one- quarter of the oil when the oil ma- chine does its work.
 Do you think, Mr. Mayor, I am asking to much for your prompt consideration?
 BASSETT STREET RESIDENT.
