monoxide from the motor exhaust
This can be done by attaching an
ordinary rubber hose to the eX-
haust pipe and inserting the other
end in the moles' runway. It's as
simple as that.
Allowing the motor TO run for
about 20 minutes at slow speed
probably will answer the purpose.
However. before becoming too en-
thusiastic about this procedure
il should be borne in mind that
carbon monoxide Is injurious to
some plants and is not recon-

What Is 'Superman'2

What is the "superman" we
hear so much talk of these
days? II is simply one who is
strong enough 10 be greater
than his hereditary blemishes
and his inimical environment.
ON this point Doctor Greene
says.
II make bold to say that
nothing i more conducive to
inward peace and quiet-yes,
even in a torn and distracted
world-than to know that con-
ditiOns altogether transcending
those of the environment and
its worldly routine are dis
cOVerable To him who seeks and
who does what Is necessary to
attain.
THAT such spheres of life
have actual, verifiable, obiec-
tive reality, are progressive
within themselves and can be
shared with Others who become
qualified. That they are not
refuge In the sense OF escape,
but require grooming of the
non-material self a. perSevering
a. that which n queen of fashion
gives her figure and her clothes.
That, having found even In
small degree the treasures which
await the genuine seeker, the
greatest hardships of this life
can be more easily bOrne-can,
I'm fact, be turned into the mo-
tive power of further advance
ment."
Therefore the stories of IA
nous supermen of all times are
linked with deserts" These
deserts are in you--in that do

sonal strength be not there it 10

Ways TO Win Power

Here are some ways Of
achieving power through medi-
alton and silence:
"Lock yourself up, II neces-
sary, In your bedroom. bath
room, cellar, attic-any place
where you are likely to be left
free from intrusion and inter-
ruption. Train the familyRtO
respect your wish TO have a
little time to yourself in which
to key out Of the days hectic
round.
Stating this wish simply yet
firmly will usually accomplish
your purpose better than side
stepping. When you are frank
you don't have to apologize or
lay yourself open to the charge
of being secretive or mysterious
about your doings.
"Many will find that the sim
q plest opportunity for quiet re-
Election presents itself during
the lunch hour or on a shopping
tour. Step into church that is
open for meditation. Or you
might even try a hotel; some OF
the newer ones have built chap
els TO furnish their patrons
with leHged-for refuge from
din and distraction.

source Of knowledge care not all

Passage Depicts Theme
The aim of Doctor Green's
book is set forth in this pas
sage:
1.-THE theme of all participants
In silence as an instrumentality
is its generous contribution TO
the deepening and enriching of
life, TO the healing of mental
and physical ills and to the
quickening and exposing of
latent faculties.
ut Is a theme weaving In
and out, like a thread of pure
gold, In the tapestry in every
great racial tradition. often
the Scriptures and the lOftiest
poetry of a people shadow forth
In allegory and symbol the
lands. planes, conditions, accessi-
bic to the illumined vision"
After an exposition of all the
sects, religious and mystical,
that have made silence the
source Of power and insight, the
author comes to the most valu-
able part of her book in the
chapter entitled. "A Few Practi-
cal Suggestions"

Balance Plus Qualities

this way:

from being an impractical

actually steps up ones efficiency

understanding and deeper in
sight, keener wits, increased
ingenuity and initiative are

which have accrued during the
time out'-all connected moro

veloped imagination.
Vision in Proportion

take before II is too late, and.

purpose, draw the benefit from
past mistakes"

SIT Quietly and Relax

whatever retreat you find,
sit quietly and learn to relay
at first perhaps the body only.
Stay for but 10 minutes II that
is the most you can contrive TO
set aside for being alone. A
half hour Is much better and
should be the mark striven for
when a fuller quleting has been
achieved. A longer period Is
still better. If YOU can hold your

In the silence and secrecy of
your mind do not spend much
time knocking yourself" Says
Doctor Greene.

tire on regrets and self-blame.

rightly and justly, not putting
all the emphasis on either your
shortcomings or your good

Superfinish, the remarkable
method of treating metal sur

ton Of David A. Wallace, presi-
dent of Chrysler, and used on
virtually all bearing surfaces in
the 1871 Chrysler cars. is being
widely employed in national de-

activities.
Superinish will be used when
ever advisable in the setup OF

adopted superhnish. include the
makers b of Pratt and Whitney

the Bohn Aluminium Company,
Detroit Brass and Aluminium

makers are superfinishing the

Celebrates Firm S
50th Anniversary
Union Guardian TrnSt
Has Fine Record

Fifty years ago. a group OF De-
troit bankers and business men,
fearing the entrance of New York
capitalists into Michigan to estab-
lish a trust field in the banking
business, formed the Uni o n
Guardian Trust Company.
This Sunday that institution
celebrates a record of a half CEN
fury of continuous trust business.
Many people do not realize that
even during the banking holiday
the companY's trust business was
continued without halt and that
the only difficulties were in the
banking end of its operations.
Trust funds were paid in full
20 per cent when the emergency
arose and 30 per cent when the
funds were released by the closed
banks-and in 1884 the Union
Guardian Trust reorganized AS a
purely fiduciary institution. To-day
its activities are confined to adj
ministration of trusts and estates.
