dred and thirty players from sixteen nations
that recently competed in an international chess
tournament.
This lady, like many other chess players is
capable Of looking at the chess board, Analysing,
studying the possibilities of the next move, with
out batting eye muscle or changing
THOUGHT for amazingly long periods. Because
of this power of concentration among chess
players as, to like degree, among some bridge
players, it is necessary in important matches to
limit the time that player may devote to
thought before making the next play.
You admire this young woman's concentra-
tion, but you WISH perhaps that it might be
devoted to something more important than just
what to do with pawn, a bishop, knight,
castle or queen Should the young lady beat
all the chess players in the world, the world and
she, herself, would still be no better for her
victory.
But if she could sit like this, with intense,
concentrated gaze fine little baby and ask
herself: "How am developing my health, my
intellect, my moral character, so that can pro-
duce better baby than hat?''-then would she
be doing some worthwhile concentrating of the
sort that produces men with more intelligence
than monkeys

The worst is yet to come.
Workmen drilling through the
House Office Building have nearly
driven the secretaries out Of their
offices with the dust and the
noise.
Most Of them drew q sigh Of re-
lief when the pneumatic drills
moved to another corridor on the
other side Of the building.
They got to work and cleaned
the offices, only to learn that soon
another crew of laborers will be
along to cut five holes through
the walls of each office for the
vents Of the new air-conditioning
system.

After he had held off the local

Mrs. zioncheok to fly West in

Until the great masses Of us begin to think,
and think CLEARLY, solving our own problems
first, then turning our clear thinking upon the
problems Of our country, solving national prob
lens by clear thinking at the polls-until then
this description will fit our own lives and the
nations life:
Truth forever on the scaffold; Wrong for
ever on the throne"
Few peoples are so fortunate as we Americans:
The clear thinking of Russians is subject to veto
by the muddled thinking of dictator; the clear
thinking of the German people is crushed to
earth by IAN eloquent man not speaking the
truth; similar eloquent deceiver hobbies clear
thinking in Italy.
In America still speak for ourselves at
the pols-we will have such chance in Novem-
Der. Imagine the people of Russia trying to
"vote" Stain out of power.

Monkeys Could Concentrate Like Man, Monkeys Would Rule World

One of the greatest faculties of the human
mind is CONCENTRATION, the power to limit
thought and keep it concentrated on one subject
for long time. 1t is faculty, as you may
discover if you will select some subject-for in
stance the Immortality of the soul-and try to
keep your mind concentrated on that for as
much as three minutes.
Scientists tell you that it is fortunate that the
monkey tribes are absolutely INCAPABLE of
continuous concentration. Watch monkeys in
their cage at the zoo, and you will them
pick up piece of straw peanut shell, drop
it, jump from the side of the cage to the floor,
from the floor to the side of the cage, scratch,
pull the tail of another monkey, jump down,
jump up-obviously, there is no intellectual con-
centration in any monkey brain. Monkeys, if
they could concentrate, would rule the world,
the scientists say, because they are much more
powerful in their biggest forms, and so much
more active in their smaller forms, than any
human beings.
If they had been capable Of concentration
watching hunters light fires, they might have
learned also how to light fires; and had they
done so, they probably would have burned up all
of the forests of the tropical world.
Forgetting the monkeys suppose we concen-

A FRIEND of mine tells me she
n never wants to make the
same thing twice. No matter how
well a cake may turn out, she is
unwilling to repeat it. OF course,
her attitude makes cooking per-
petual adventure, but when guests
are expected, l should think she
would have some bad moments
wondering about results. It's a
good Dian to try new dishes out
on the family before serving them

How many households ever
meet oysters anyway but in stew,

casionally fried? Yet there are
innumerable other fascinating rec
