may be either an esthetic or q greedy

time you have to eat meal in. A
quick lunch hurriedly bolted down does
not come under the esthetic heading.
Food may be q dull necessity Of life

Everyday Psychology
The Megalomaniac,

II you ponder the word megalomaniac,
It sounds like q disease. But It's really
not so bad. It's an individual who
starts out by thinking too highly OF
himself. He then begins to have feel
ings Of grandeur. He keeps on feeling
that way. Finally he begins to act
the part A little later on his neigh
bors will begin to take an interest In
the matter Of his safety, as well as their
own. The megalomaniac has arrived.
It may seem strange, but the true
megalomaniac has q long history. Any
one can understand that history. Very
few indeed are they who have not lived
through something like the same ex-
periences.
Have you ever realized that you have
an inner self, an lego" which you ordi-
narily say nothing about? That's the
FIRST chapter in the history Of q
megalomaniac.
Now suppose that your lego" gets
q few hard bumps. You naturally
'let on" that this secret you" isn't
hurt. You are pretty likely to rise
about your hurts by pretending you
are a little more than equal to the
situation. So far, all right.
The next chapter in the history is
failure to hide your hurts. You in
crease your stock of pretentions, and
end up by talking about them.
Keep this up and you may turn out
to be q megalomaniac.
