Everyday Psychology
Is knowledge Power?
BY DR.. JESSE v. sPRowLs.

1t Is often said that knowledge is
power. This may or may not be true.
1t all depends on the way you put your
knowledge to work. The power that be-
longs to knowledge comes out in the
process Of using 1t.
II you can process your knowledge
completely, you can control your be-
havior completely. This may seem at
first to be an exaggeration. It's the
plain truth. In fact, it should be re-
garded as an infallible law OF mental
life.
What happens when you are faced
with some fear inspiring situation. say
an announcement that you are likely
to lose your job? Something like a
general shake-up. in the form of a
multiplication Of ideas. These surging
bits of knowledge will block one another
even to the point Of . total loss OF
control
The cause of all this blocking is the
presence OF something more powerful
than knowledge itself. At every mo-
ment of our lives We operate on both
feeling and knowledge. When the feel
ings are sufficiently aroused we seem
to lose our wits. What we actually do
Is to fall back upon those ancient quail
ties called the emotions. 1t seems that
our emotional life will not mix with
our intellectual life in anything like
predictable proportions. knowledge is
power II we can control our emotions

Discrimination in Mixing Food

gether in the cause of variety in dishes,
as far as a digestible diet Is concerned.
1t is rather the knowledge Of what form
happy combinations OF ingredients, as
well as wholesome ones. which distin-
guishes the fine chef from the mediocre
one, of today as OF yore. One OF the
main tests is in the use and the COM
bination of f1avorings seasonings. OF
herbs, pungent and sweet. and the
quantity of each needed to supply deli
cacy or zest to dishes.
Another test of the good cook is in
the sauces she makes. In these the va
riety of ingredients is often large, and
they must be congenial. The use Of
different sauces at different times on
the same foods lends as much variety to
a dish as do combinations Of ingredients
in the dish itself. There are sweet and
tart sauces, and sour-sweet sauce
There are bread sauces and fruit sauces.
There are piquant sauces and coating
sauces. There are sauces for fish, meat
and fowl, for eggs for puddings and ices
A good sauce and one appropriate to
the food is ''the making" of many de-
licious dishes Of very inexpensive foun-
dations. The meat used in making soup
can be Transformed into a main dish to
satisfy an eXacting appetite If good
Bechamel sauce is poured over it. Lob
ster or oyster sauce will supply a rather
f1avorlesS boiled fish, such as haddock
or cod with just the right taste to make
it worthy to be set before guests.

Answer-If your older brother is

Dear Mrs. Post-When two ladies

k acceptable to the mice tribe and
much that is not Nothing is too good
for mice babies cradles, as many
housekeepers have found out to their
sorrow.
Minnie Mouse has large, trumpet
like ears which move about and eaten
every sound. Her eyes are large, round
and bright. Her lose is forever sniff
ing the air and gets the scent OF food
left lying about. Her Whiskers are
most important to her as hunter.
They measure the size of an opening,
and inform her of objects in the way.
Her two front teeth are long and
curved. and used for gnawing and cut
ting through walls and anything that
impedes her explorations.
She is provided with long tail that
has ridges on 1t. This Is most helpful
when she is climbing and wishes to use
her front feet for reaching, 1t also
acts as a balancer when she sits on her
hind legs In this position she folds
her front feet under her chin. Her feet
are hairless. but covered with down.
The toes, finished with claws, enable
her to hang on to anything but metal
and iron.
Good grooming is a passion with

fed they are after every particle OF dust
has been removed from each ear. the
fur well combed and the hair brushed.
After the toilet is made, Minnie looks
about, as If seeking an admirer.
Seclusion is the goal OF all mice.
They go to no end of trouble to accom-
plish this desire, and you know they
seem to have a special longing to get
into the walls of a house where you
just cannot reach them.
The mice infants, when born, are
naked and blind. The skin Is soft
pink and feels just like human babyS.
Soon they are covered with the Softest
down and are heard crying for food.
This hunger cry of theirs mas led to
many nursery Of infant mice meeting
sudden death.
When danger threatens her babies,
the mother carries them, as they cling
to her breasts, out of the way of i'm
pending doom. When they are older
she makes them hold tight to her fur
Water is essential to all mice and they
soon perish without it.
The ancestry of mice dates back to
the first families of mice in Asia. They
came to America on the first ships, to
seek greater opportunities offered them,
and rarely does ship leave port with
out q member of this family aboard,
many times travelling de luxe!

That kind Of toy buying does the
child no good and it wastes time and

A wheel Of some sort from q kiddie

Don't Believe Him.

Rudyard Kipling has told his fellow
craftsmen that writers cannot lie.
I believed that the masters Of fiction
In every country and time
Could write without let or restriction
Unlike us mere scribblers of rhyme.
I thought they employed their invention
In turning out novel or skit.
And that if they attracted attention
The truth didn't matter bit.
Hans Andersen, Grimm and the tellers
OF the tales that come down from
the Greeks.
I supposed, were just regular fellers
Who wrote with their tongues in their
That whatever they put into writing
Was intended their living to gain,
And must always be wildly exciting.
Though of fact it held never a grain,
I even supposed Mr. Kipling

And sought, when he still was q strip

To make animals gabble like men,
Thought Of fame, and the best way to
win it.

Providence and Poison

Lack Of rain this fall has prevented
farmers in this area from doing the
one effective thing which would pre-
vent recurrence Of the grasshopper
scourge next summer.
Throughout the entire northwest
entomologists, fearful of even more
damage next year than was done this
year. have been urging farmers to
pillow under their stubble fields in the
belief that they harbor billions of
grasshopper eggs. Deep blowing
would bury the eggs and the young
grasshoppers would be unable to
reach the surface after Matching.
This Is particularly true OF the
Rocky Mountain" type Of insect
which Is said to be most numerous
now. Experts fear it because it Is q
close relative OF the grasshopper
hordes which devastated this country
in the early days.
But fall blowing in this district, ex-
oept In limited areas, has been q
practical impossibility because of the
drouth, and the time for it soon will
be over.
1t appears that we shall have to
put our trust in Providence and pre-
pare for renewal Of the poisoning
warfare next year.
