FIXED IDEAS By Garrett P. seryiss

When Columbus hit upon Amer.
lea, everything conspired TO show
him that Il could not BE- the
oriental sspice islands, or the
outlying possessions Of the empire
found. There was no sign nf the
wonderful civilization described by
Marco Polo to be found among
the uncultivated savages that
greeted Columbus with amaze
ment, or among the wild islands
that they inhabited. Yet he
simply would not recognize the
plain meaning OF the facts. or
admit the least modification Of
hissorIginaI idea that If he found
any land 1t must necessarily be-
long to Asia.
Failure Of Columbus
When he tried to enlarge the
field OF his explorations he IN
variably turned the wrong way.
He lost the most promising open
ings by chasing after slight and
deceitful hints and indications
that seemed to him alone to per-
tain to the hidden wonders OF
IdLu6yS Wills 1AG L0AmGA His OaelkA
on the ways to true success which
others after him promptly pur-
sued.
The superstitious see in Column
bus continual failures and blum
ders, after the grand success Of
his first crossing OF the sea, the
hand of malignana fate, but,
though one must say 1t with the
deepest regret. It. was the fixity
and rightly Of his one mastering
idea that brought about his un-
doing.
Thus he furnishes q moral les
son OF inestimable value, not
only to men OF great endoWments
and immense opportunities. like
himself, but to the humblest NOR
tails who have to carve their way
in this world. For lack of learn
ing that lesson many q young
man has gone down to defeat.
MANY a merchant has failed,
many a business enterprise has
been ruined, many a social catas-
trophe has suffered. Beware
of fixed ideas that will ride
Syou like Sindbad's "Old Man OF
the Sea-" that will narrow your
vision like q horses "blinders,
that will have the effect OF an
intellectual drought, drying up
your sources Of thought.
The Washington times. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1902-1939, 1926-06-24

THERE liz nothing 30 binding
as, q fixed idea, or an OBJ
session. One Of the most pa
rhatic examples OF this il pre-.
sented by Columbus. He dis
covered America without know
ing what he had done. His idea
that by sailing westward from
Europe he would reach the east
ern shores of Asia, took such
complete possession OF him that
his mind was set" by it, as
mass Of plaster is set when, it
hardens.
In consequence of this prepos-
session, when he stumbled upon
America on his way across the
sea westward, the pIainest indi-
cation that this was not what
he sought, was not the back door
to the eastern world, made alb
solutely no impression upon him.
A modern novelist furnished with
the materials for psychological
study that Washington Irving
has scattered through his fas-
cinating Life OF Columbus"
could have produced q picture Of
mental Justification that would
have been painful to read-as In

If All That I Hear lis True

absence you've got to stand af.
ter n2arriage-it's his eternal
PRESENCE!
There is always one woman
in a mans life who teaches him
the tender little arts which he
practices on all the other women.
Somehow, having a man try
to be ''chummy" with her, in
stead OF sentimental, always
gives a girl an ''inferiority COM
pick" which lasts until the next
man tells her he loves her.
When a man succeeds in park
Ing his car without touching an
other mans fender, it is usually
good management: but when
woman does it, she knows it's the
hand OF Heaven!
If a man has a good profile
and a girl has a cute Zine" or
a dimple, it takes only an eve
ming or two in the moonlight,
for them to persuade themselves
that they are mentally and
spiritually mated"
A woman's face wears the
same cryptic expression when
her husband tries to alibi him
self after a little sentimental
DETECTION, as the shoe-clerk wears,
when q woman tries to explain"
the hole in her stocking.
Why will a man always insist
on speeding cheerfully past all
the women who give him the
stop signal and would die
to make him happy-and then
obsttnately try to park his
heart, where 1t isn't wanted?
Somehow, a woman can al

STEER AND FORD GET
TANGLED UP NEAR FROID

Froid.-The Ford car driven by
Martin Anderson was badly damaged
and a yearling steer belonging to
Christoffersen's suffered a broken leg
Sunday evening when the two collid-
ed on the road south of Froid near
the Christoffersen farm. Anderson
saw the calf start to move off the
road, but the animal apparently
changed it's mind as it jumped di-
rectly in front of the car. The calf
had to be killed, but the car was
ready for use the next day after a
new radiator, fan, and lights had re-
placed the old parts, which were
practically demolished.
