NEW YORK, Nov. 2 UN.S0.
Former Governor Alfred E. Smith,

1896 presidential campaign today
indicted the New Deal for what
he termed the stirring up of class
hatred and cheap, shallow and

order.
Smith, who made good his threat

councils by openly espousing the
cause of Governor Alfred M. Lam

Administration, issued the follow

iStration for stirring up class
hatred and for setting men and
women against their neighbOrs.
II indict 1t for cheap, shallow

Never In the history Of this

The leaves are alternate, compound,

Psychology
BY DIR. JESSE W. SPROWLS.
Some Facts.

PERsoNs with great minds fire.
quently consult others-generally
persons Of inferior roles in life. Per-
sons with narrow minds think they
understand everything and therefore
consult no one.
Persons who love to argue have very
little understanding Of human nature.
We accept some distractions and re-
ject others. This Is the old law of
pleasure and pain which rules the
mind.
One can create an unconscious mind
by simply paying no attention to
things. The unconscious is filled with
things we experience and do not know
that we experience them.
We all tend to mistake our excuses
for real reasons. Naturalization Is
the most used mental mechanism
know to psychology.
Most persons reason along the lines
of sentiment. Without sentiment there
could be no war.
We say our wills are free. But free
dom Of will has practically nothing to
do with our beliefs.
Adults very often behave along the
line Of suggestions picked up in child
hood. That's why most people have a
false idea OF the purpose of education.
Our best mind-saver Is our ability
to underestimate our mistakes.
