extermlnated between seasons, the
growing young would make that
scheduled flight southwark in late
October and back again in March.
Instinct such as that is truly amaz-
ing, and often, too, it becomes pitiable.
All such migrations started originally
through necessity and Nature herself
was the original guiding voice. But in
many cases through the centuries,
necessity and reason have fallen away
from these Odyssean passages of birds
and beasts, leaving them prompted by
empty time alone.
Farther north one may see more
clearly the cruelty of such blind habit.
There are certain tribes of birds that
will start invariably toward their nest
ing places in the Arctic tundras,
prompted by their particular vicious
circle, regardless of the fact that actual
spring may be extremely backward
and, as a result, the weaker fall along
the way in uncounted numbers.

At ten O'Clock we hear that the swal-

YAMEs HoUsToN, though of course
~ that isn't his name, was president
Of the Mems Club. He was a
member of the town Board of Educa-
ton, active in the Parent-Teacher
Association and in Rotary. The local
paper mentioned him frequently as a
prominent citizen. But Houston,
though only his intimates knew it, was
hard up. Mrs. Houston had to bluff
and scrimp. She did all her own work,
denied her children little luxuries and
pleasures that almost broke her heart.
America is full of Houstons.

James Houston and sat side by side.
Houston looked grimly around the

"What?" he demanded.

what you get. Your desire for salts

put in a gasoline filling station, sold
lumber off tax-heavy wood lot,
brought his business up to date and
tripled his profits. Now he is running

sake. Mrs. Houston no longer has to

WILL THE SWALLOWS START SUNDAY?
by au Annxaex

4 YExT Sunday the swallows that
live in the walls and belfry of
the old San Juan Capistrano
Mission will leave for the south. That
means that winter will be officially
ushered in for all old-time Californians
and native Mexicans, as we'll as for all
the tribes of the air, regardless of the
fact that the weather is still warm,
warmer even than it was back in June.
The swallows will leave about mid
day. Each twenty-third of October
they have left thus, and each nine
teenth of March they have returned to
their old nests, to be on hand for the
feast of St. Joseph's Day, as the Mis-
sion fathers aver.
Generation after generation, decade
after decade, for sixty-eight years, the
swallows have followed this schedule.
Yet there is always a degree of doubt
and concern on the part of the old-time
inhabitants as to whether the little
time clock in the swallows group soul
might slip or fail.
The newspapers speak of the awaited
event in the morning and again at
night, and the voice of the radio keeps

fifth year to a land that is now sunk
beneath the Atlantic Ocean. And every
fifth year, still to this day, the Jennings
make their westward rush, not to
richer land, but to wholesale destruc-
tion in the North Sea. They gather in
bands numbering many thousands
under their grizzled kings and sweep
toward the sea, killing and devouring
as they 60. And not even the chill sight
and feel of the sea can turn them back,
so strong is that buried urge in every
jennings blood.

an equally amazing animal movement

the Barren Ground caribou, which

such numbers that the herds often
take three days to pass given point.

get it is to learn to desire it. 1t is easy
to imagine you want money when you
actually desire something quite differ
ent. Perhaps the thing you want is
more valuable to you than money,
perhaps not. A man or a woman who
just succeeds in holding a job, year
after year, desires not money primarily
but economic security. Many people
in many occupations prefer publicity
to cash. A formerly successful man told
me recently that he wanted to make
money more than anything else in the
world. But when | showed him
lucrative job he refused it. The work,
he said, was beneath his dignity. That
fellow wanted social position more than
financial independence.
Money is no respecter of persons or
of conflicting desires. You may have to
grub for it, travel for it, battle for it,
put on overalls for it. Unless you care
enough for money to 60 after it, you
are permitting your money desire to
be overshadowed by some stronger
wish and you are destined to win your
preferred object - but not money.
You get what you want, always. That
is the law of life.
You can, if you choose, direct ninety
per cent of your desire strength toward
the things you need. Desire is real
and vital force. Use it.
