Work as StabiIizing Power

unwise, for, just as q person can be
utterly lost In the intricate winding
paths of a material maze, so can the
thoughts become inextricably entangled
In the devious avenues of the brain.
Some one familiar with the blind al
leyS and meanderings of the material
maze often has to be summoned from
his watch tower to lead the one who is
lost In a labyrinth. In the mental
maze, work is the guide that will lead
the bewildered person into clear path
ways of thought
Since this Is a proven fact, it will be
seen that work results not only in ac-
complishment of mundane tasks, and
stupendous scientific discoveries, inven-
lions, ETC., but it reacts to the benefit OF
the mind and spirits of the worker.
The important and significance Of work
cannot be overestimated. It is an in
tegral part of healthy existence.
Work and overwork are two widely
different matters. The one is whole
some privilege, something no normal
teriorate both physically and mentally.
The second is strain that the system
cannot stand constantly without a
breakdown.
The physique has the elasticity of
rubber band. 1t can be put under much
physical and mental strain in times of
necessity, and it will give without in
furious resistance up to its limit of ca
pacity. If before the limit is reached,
the person will relax, she will SNAP
back" to normal conditions without ap-
preciable harm. It is when the person
disregards the dictates of the physique
and goes beyond its endurance that
oyerwork becomes a danger.
It is not work that is disastrous to
person. Work is healthy, stimulating
and normal 1t is stabilizing. No one
should try to escape it. Danger turks
in neglect of this essential of whole
some existence.

Everyday Psychology
Fears.
BY DIR. JESSE W. sPRowLs.

Fears.
What are individuals afraid Of? Well
that depends on the individual, But
here is list of the important things:
/. Some are afraid to think, because
they fear they might think wrong.
2. Some are afraid of animals.
3. Some are afraid of burglars.
4. Some are afraid of thunder.
D. Some are afraid Of lightning.
8. Some are afraid of humiliation.
z. Some are afraid of books.
8. Some are afraid of strangers.
8. Some are afraid of diseases.
10. Some are afraid of themselves.
IL. Some are afraid of snakes.
IL. Some are afraid of darkness.
IL Some are afraid of high places.
IA. Some are afraid of closed places.
Is. Some are afraid of open places.
Is. Some are afraid to go to sleep.
II. Some are afraid of crowds.
10. Some are afraid to make decisions
10. Some are afraid the world will
come to an end.
20. Every one is afraid Of death.
One deduction is that the fear OF
death is the parent of all fears. An
other theory is that the fear of losing
Self-esteem is the parent of all fears
But on the question of fears one theory
Is about as good as another.

breast.
So came about famous encounter In
the Champs Elysees. Lady BIessington
was driving in her carriage when the
future emperor, on horseback, overlook
her. He slowed up to ride beside her.
They exchanged greetings and q few
sentences. Then the Prince-P President
asked an indiscreet question.
Does your ladyship intend 10 remain
long in Paris?"
The countess, making rapid mental
review Of late changea1le French
history, shook her head and then smiled
Sweetly, "And you?" she parried.
Louis Napoleon spuTTed his horse and
rode on. This was a question no man
could answer. Yet he did remain In
France, its Emperor from 1851 until
1870, when he had the misfortune to
go to war with Prussia.
Lady Blessington did not stay 50 long.
She died a few months after her arrival

lie down and relax

three times the energy needed to do a
particular piece of work, whether that
work be physical or mental. All this
surplus energy is expended on needless
and exaggerated movements and un-
necessary thoughts.
There can be no great power of
quick and effective action unless the
ability to relax is also there. Those
people who worry, fret, fume or fidget
are not the people who do the best
work. They wear themselves out be-
fore the hour for real action arrives.
The man or woman who may be
depended upon in an emergency, or
at any time, is the one who possesses
calmneSs and the ability to relax at
will. Relaxation is largely a matter
of habit and training, and the first
step is to cultivate mental attitude
of calmness and repoSe even in the
face of adversities, sickness or business
worries-a difficult procedure to great
many, but it is quite within the pow

NANCY PAGE
Children Would Be Helpful
and Self.Reliant.
By FLORENCE Ia GANKE.

Joan was such a Self-reliant young
Ster that she was almost no trouble to
her Aunt Nancy. Had she been more
bother it is quite possible that Aunt
Nancy would have taught her own son
Peter to do things for himself at an
earlier age. Or had there been a little
baby sister for Peter Page, jr., he might
have had to learn to fend for himself
much earlier.
1t came to Nancy with a shock that
she was doing almost everything for
her young son and not letting him de-
velop his own powers. Just SO soon as
she saw that, she made up her mind
that he should be taught to dress him
self.
A child Of two and a half can man
age most of his clothes, put on his
shoes, even lace them. In fact, un-
lacing shoes Is such fun that putting
them on and taking them of can be
made real game.
1t was, fortunately, In the spirit of
fun that Nancy. started her young
hopeful on the road to self-reliance.
She had Joan help him on and of
with miGtens. Wisely, she did not
choose the gloves with all their little
hiding places for fingers and thumbs
Children are impatient at restraint
and delay and it is cruel to inflict
tightly fitting kid gloves upon their
little pudgy hands with their fingers
which have never yet learned to CO.
ordinate themselves.
Every time Peter held down the
sleeve of his sweater when he was slip
ping his arm into the coat he played
e game Of "Good-by, hand and sleeve
hello, hand and sleeve" And every
time he held the sleeve successfully he
was praised. Nancy was lavish in her
praise. Peter soon did other helpful
little acts. Nancy let him carry plates
to the table, she showed him where to
place the spoons. And putting napkins
at each place was his special JOY And
always he was praised for being help
full. He Tapped up the praise and
hunted for more things to do.

Learn to Relax.

Can you relax? Some people can,
but there are great many girls and
women who need to learn this art
more than the latest fad. In our
present-day civilization relaxation is
almost a lost art, and many are the
cases of nervous prostration (among
both men and women) that might
have been avoided if the ability or in
clination to relax properly and COM
pletely had been practiced
If you learn how to relax and know
the benefits derived from this art and

served under four Chief Justices-Mel-
vile w. Fuller, Edward Douglass White,
William Howard Taft and Charles
Evans Hughes-and has known % of
the Associate justices.
He became clerk in 1927. Several
years prior to that he served as deputy
clerk.
Cropley probably knows as many law
yers as any other person in the United
States. His business is with lawyers
Daily they file in and out of his cham
berS. He is well grounded In legal lore,
but he is not a lawyer.
His observations on the lawyers with
whom he has come in contact all these
years are interesting.
When first came to the Court"
says Cropley, "the majority of the law
yers before the Court were as imposing
looking and as old as the Justices them
selves
"Whiskers and heavy gold watch
chains hadn't gone out of fashion, and
somehow they seemed to go well with
flowing tail coats. Those attorneys
were as sure Of their law as the men
on the bench and they stood their
ground when the questions began to
come.
II don't mean to imply that the at
torneys who appear nowadays aren't as
capable, but they are younger as rule.
A lawyer who handles the case In the
lower courts generally comes here to
argue it, and some Of them are only a
few years out of college.
Those were the days when techni-
calitieS were dourishing thickest in the
forest Of law. They may be now, but
1t seems quite clear there has been a
good deal Of pruning and that the legal
trees can be seen much more clearly
A good thing, suppose"
