We can resist depressing de-pressing sights and into in-to mailon by means of will power secured by mental exercises. A story nn hour long has been told mo this morning by a business manager, mana-ger, and when I left him I felt Hko taking a month's vacation to mourn over tho conditions in somo departments depart-ments of the business world. After I had walked a hundred rect my resolution wns mado to throw off by will power tho mental depression nnd go to work on my day's work with a determination to promote intelligent in-telligent commcrco as a remedy for iclflsh chicanery. A secretary of a big organization told mo about tho material in many organizations for a scandalous story. That wa? several years ago when tho dupty corners of a prominent man's work woro being cleaned with tho public ns nn audience. At about that lmo another sccertary told mo that ho was going to begin collecting and studying desirable efforts, products and plans. My thought was that more good could bo grown by holding up tho deslrablo than by exposing tho evil. My belief Is that tho world Is growing grow-ing better not all tho timo in ovory placo, but as an nverago tho whole world over. l Somo think with mo and somo think 11 thp opposite. Ono man told mo that thn ... ...... .1-- i-.i.i- ...i-i Is that tho world Is better overy day. It may be that prayer when sin-cero sin-cero and aggresslvo Is a sourco of will power which Improves tho world In general as well as tho Individual who offers the prayer. Wcro you ever depressed by a story you read or which somo one told you? Do you think that wo should lot tho conditions of tho report to ontcr and remain in our mind? Can wo drivo out tho thoughts from our head tho 8amo as wo would a vermin-loaded vermin-loaded bat flying in our houses? Wo aro less nblo to help those who need help If wo aro depressed becauso doprosslon wenkonn. Wo aro not ablo to do goo'd work anywhero if our minds aro poisoned with tho fumes of tho ncids of evil. Wo can and wo should train ourselves our-selves to roslst thoso forcos which injure our individuality and cut down our ability to comfort, oncourago and wisely direct. |
