Show We can resist de-, de-, pressing sights and information in-formation by means or will power secured by-mental by-mental exercises. A story an hour long has been told no this morning by a business manager, mana-ger, and when I left him I felt llko taking n month's vncatlon to mourn over tho conditions in some departments depart-ments of the business world. After I had walked a hundred feet my resolution wns mado to throw off by will power tho mental depression, and go to work on my dny'R work, with n determination to promote Intelligent In-telligent rommerco as a remedy for telflflb rhlcanery. A secretary of a big organisation told me nbout tho material in nruf '-.. organizations fo; a scandalous Btory-That Btory-That was several years ago when the-dusty the-dusty corners of a prominent man's; work wero being elenned with tho-publlc tho-publlc as an nudlenco. At about that Mme another seccrtary told me that he wos going to begin collecting and studying desirable efforts, products and plans. My thought was that more good could be grown by holding-up holding-up tho desirable than by exposing the-ovll. the-ovll. My belief Is that tho world Is growing grow-ing better not nil the tlmo In overy place, but us an average tho whole-world whole-world over. Somo think with me nnd some think tho opposite. Ono man told me that tho most comforting Idea In his mind, is thnt tho world Is better every day-It day-It may be that prayer when sincere sin-cere nnd aggrcsslvo is a source of will iKiwer which Improves tho world In general as well as tho Individual who offers the prayer. Were you ever depressed by n story you read or which some one told you? Do you think thnt wo should let tho conditions of tho report to enter nnd remain In our mind? Can wo-drive wo-drive out tho thoughts from our head, tho snmo as we would a vermln-londed vermln-londed bat flying In our houses? Wo nro less nblo to help those who need help If wo aro depressed because depression weakens. Wo nro not nblo to do good work. -anywhero If our minds nro poisoned with tho fumes of tho acids of evil. We can nnd wo should train ourselves our-selves to resist thoso forces which, injure our Individuality and cut dowa our ability to comfort, encourago nnd wisely direct. |
