confer with other organizations
and organize a center that
would operate at least one night
each week.
Mrs. Peoples suggested the
Gordon Junior High School, at
Thirty-fourth Street and Wis
conSin Avenue, as q desirable
community center.
Use Of Schools Urged
The director urged wide use
Of the school buildings for COM
munity activities, since they rep
resent millions Of dollars Of tax
payers money. The buildings,
she said, should be made avail
able whenever needed by the
community.
There is a greater demand now
than ever before for leisure time
activities and after-School-te term
education, Mrs. Peoples said, and
the community centers could do
much more with increased ap-
preparations.
The question of liquor control
in Washington was left to the dis
erection of the delegates to the
Federation of Citizens Associa-
tons when the question comes
before that body for discussion.
Fire Service Defended
James F.. Brewster and C. v.
Maudlin, members of a special
committee named to study fire
department conditions in George
town and report on charges made
against George S. Watson, Chief
Engineer of the Department, by
the Ftrefighters Association, re-
ported the charges were too vague
and that the fire department had
always rendered adequate service
in the community.
The association will take no
action in trying to obtain free
transfers between street cars and
buses until the hearings called for
February by the Public Utilities
Commission, it was decided when
Harry E. Radcliffe, chairman of
the transportation committee, re-
ported.
On motion of James F. Brew
Ster, the association voted to sup
ply Christmas baskets of food to
needy families. Last year 40
such baskets were distributed.
Boys Clubs Advocated
Lieut.. Eugene L. Eby, Of the
Seventh (Georgetown police pre-
cinct, advocated establishment of
boys clubs in the territory of
every citizens association in the
city.
The efforts of The Washing
ton Times to aid citizens associa-
tons in their various projects
was explained by the editor Of
this column.
A list Of street improvements,
to be made under the Civil Works
Administration, was approved.
The association favored the fol-
lowing projects: Lay a sidewalk
on he south side of r Street,
between Thirty sixth and Thirty
seventh, and on the east side of
Thirty-Seventh Street, between r
Street and Reservoir Road; grade
the bank in the alley in the rear
of the $500 block of T Street;
repair sewers along Thirty-sev-
enth Street from Tunlaw Road to
Reservoir Road, so they will be
to carry off storm
water; resurface Lovers Lane to
connect with R Street; grade and
widen Thirty-ninth Street be-
tween Reservoir Road and r.
Street and open an entrance
there to the Western High School
stadium; repair sidewalk between
Thirty fifth and Thirty sixth

Some Ways to Gain Popularity

because they have an accomplishment
which makes an addition to any gath

singing, impersonating, being able to
interest q group In an account Of some
event or in telling stories amusingly,
in short, being good raconteur-any
of these things, when done In q way
above the average, lends a certain en-
viable distinction to the person, and
supplies popularity. 1t is assumed that
there is also polish Of manner which
gives a gracious and agreeable person.
ality. without which few can expect to
become favorites or be popular, what
ever their field.
Being a good dancer is one of the
drawing-room accomplishments which
make girl sought as a partner, and
cut in for when already dancing A
help to this popularity is to have a
happy expression. The one with whom
the girl is dancing may get only brief
glimpses OF this, but those watching
get full view and are apt to make
mental note of expression. Another
drawtng-room accomplishment is play
ing a good game Of cards plus taking
beating without arguments. To
haggle over cards played, to criticize
your partners leads or the way he
failed to follow yours Is fatal to pop
ularity.
Girls who are unpopular are apt to
think harshly or even speak disparag-
ingly of those who are popular. 1t is
distressing to find ones self in the
background, but one is wise to analyze
the situation and find out why one
loses out
Learn to be good at something which
makes for attraction. To be good look
ing isn't everything. To be made up
too much is no help. To have a win
ming expression is great aid To be a
good listener is another. This does not
mean merely being silent and letting
the other person talk. 1t means listen
ing SO that whatever comments you do
make are to the point, revealing an un-
derstanding of the conversation. Try
to make yourself popular in some field
and in some way. If you do this with
sincerity and not specifically, you are
in fair way to win success.

Everyday Psychology
By DIR. JESSE W. sPRowLs.
Hypnotism.

am often asked these questions: Q)
'Is it possible to hypnotize every one?"
ca Can person be hypnotized against
his will?"
My answer is that it is not possible
to hynotize every one. Some persons
are naturally suspicious, naturally cau-
tious. Or at least they have become
chemically suspicious of the designs Of
others in consequence of a series of dis
appointments. They come to possess a
generally negative temperament or dis
position. It's impossible to hypnotic
such persons.
There are not many such persons in
the general run Of the population, for
most people, as children, have acquired
the habit of obeying some one. And
obedience to suggestion Is the key to
hypnotism.
What I have said in answer to the
first question may also be taken as an
answer to the second question. Specifi-
cally, it is impossible to hypnotic per-
son against his will. When one wills
not to be hypnotized, one has assumed
the negative attitude, which throws
every suggestion off the track before 1t
has a chance to do its work.
In every case of hypnotism, the one
who does the hynotizing must first dis
turb the normal balance between trust
and distrust. When the element Of dis
trust Is eliminated, hypnotism Is rela-
lively simple operation.
The hypnotists are correct in saying
that they are able to hypnotize most
persons, but they stretch the truth when
they say that every one may be hypno-
tized.
