Senior Talks
The present normal training
seniors have given the high school
some of the best senior talks we
have ever had. Most of the talks
we're based on psychology and
we're very interesting and practi-

Anna Rygg talked On "How to
Make Your Mind Behave and
gave four principles which follow
ed would make near-genuines OF
us all. First, we must take a keen
and active interest in our work.
Second, we must build on facts
and judge them impartially.
Third, if we wish to think hard
we must relax. Sustained and
concentrated attention does not
meal strained attention. Fourth,
we should guard our minds against
all evil or improper associations
because of the Importance OF the
subconscious mind.

stressed the Importance OF IN
stincts in the life of the individual
and discussed the effect of envir-

differ from one another we are
all very much alike after all ana
do the things we do because ITS
just natural"
