A Grip on Yourself
By BEATRICE FAIRFAX.
Have you ever been brought face
to face with a real crisis? They say
that the soul of man expresses itself
fully and freely when he finds him
self in a burning building or on a
sinking ship. His real self, be i
brute or idealist, takes possession o
him and he is fully and entirely what
he has never before dared to be or
even known he desired to be. But
life is not made up of great and
glaring emergencies. Few ot. us
are called on to face tremendous
and momentous decisions of great
temptations.
Even in the midst of times that try
men's souls we are likely to find our
selves sheltered from decisions more
vital than whether to have last
year's leghorn hat cleaned or to buy
some color and paint it brown!
Every day brings tiny crises.
There are moments when you must
struggle to keep your temped mo
ments when you have to force your
self to go on working in spite of
weariness and discouragement, mo
ments when you must react quickly
from your own emotions. It re
quires real stamina to lash your
self into action when inaction is the
thing for which you long.
Suppose I you wake up in , the
morning with a dull headache and a
general distaste for the day's work.
There is nothing which you abso
lutely must do, but whatever you
neglect today will be added tomorrow
and will make its duties almost too
onerous for you to accomplish.
Are you going to conquer your own
lassitude and meet the rear need of
the moment, or will you yield? It
requires almost as much self-control
to force yourself to act when you
long to do nothing as it does to keep
yourself from action when whatever
you do is likely to be ill-judged, over
emotional wrong.
A clerk in a store annoys you ,by
seeming more interested in discuss
ing with another half way down the
counter the events of last night's
dance than in ministering to your
wants. You lose your temper and be
rate the girl soundly. She waits on
you sulkily. You summon the aisle
manager and expostulate with him.
You are startled that he does not at
once dismiss the clerk who annoyed
you. Of course, he doesn't; h8 sees
that an excitable, uncontrolable per
son you are. He takes what you say
with a grain of salt.
A few week ago I was standing at
Neal to Have Offices
At the Grain Exchange
Charles T. Neal, who comes from
Kansas City as United States food
administration agent, representing H.
C. Hoover, national food administra
tor, will probably have offices in the
Omaha Grain Exchange building. He
has not yet received instructions rela
tive to the scope of his work, nor
has he lined up an office force.

the neckwear counter when a woman
came in with a collar she wished to
exchange. "I haven't the price tag of
my check," she said quietly to the
clerk, "but I bought this collar here
and I find it is too short for the dress
with which I want to wear it. I. would
be very grateful for an exchange."
"Can't do it, madam, if you have
no cneck, saia tne cleric almost
curtly.
"Haven't you the authority?" ask
ed the woman quietly. "I don't want
you to do anything that would get
you into trouble but perhaps the
manager can oblige me."
"I told you we couldn't do one
thing about it," said the clerk sharply.
"Won't you please call the man
ager?" asked the womanstill good-
natured, still in absolute control of
herself. ,
Five minutes later, after repeated
requests, the clerk went ill-naturedly
enough to summon the depart
ment manager. He started gruffly
to assure the woman who wanted the
exchange that nothing could be done
about it. And sne still remamed
amiable.
"I got this collar here and I
haven't worn it. You can see it's
quite fresh and there's another just
like it here in the show case. I'm
so anxious to have you change it.
Don't you think you could stretch
a point r
By this time I was heartily on the
side of the amiable woman who so
persistently, yet quietly, struggled
for what she wanted. And that
quiet persistence won. The floor
manager began to be impressed by
the complete good-nature of the cus
tomer. After all, good merchants
know that some rules are made to
be broken. And the manager broke
his rule, adding as he did, "You're
so nice about it, madam, that I don t
see how I can refuse you."
Self-control really is a paying in
stitution. Every tune you go up
in the air" you put just so much
added strain on the machinery, and
almost invariably it is to no purpose.
Try a little self-control, a little disci
pline on your own warring and wav
ering emotions. You will probably
get very good results.
