THE POSITIVE THOl'CHT
"If we are to win the war," says
Christian Girl, head of the govern
Bent's motor trucks department,
"we must avoid wasting energy to
are a dime, because by doing so we
will lose the opportunity to produce
dollar.
"to airect our energies in war
time to self-denial, sarin? and
Umplng Is to unfit the mind for
greater effort. Would It not be bet
tar to have the greater portion of
this energy consumed in additional
production for the purpose of win
ning the war?"
Mr. Girl Is not opposed, of course,
to every form of saving and self-denial.
It Is only against the over
emphasis of this factor that he pro
tests. He Is merely driving home the
Importance of the "positive thought"
as opposed to the negative, of now,
constructive effort as opposed to
stand-patlsm.
It is a commonplace of present
day thinking that all of us have
greater power than we ordinarily
inspect, and that the best way to get
ahead Is to call them into creative
action. Instead of saving more out
of an old, stationary Income, the idea
is to get busy and make the income
larger. With more work done and
more money earned, come bigger
possibilities of saving. By making
the most of our brains, souls and
"bodies, we can make better pro
gress with war or business or any
thing else, and we can do It without
really stinting ourselves.
It's a philosophy worth preaching
and practicing.
THE KAISER'S DISADVANTAGE
Hlndenburg's reckless extrava
gance in human lives Is not without
historic precedent. It Is typical of
autocracy in any time. Wellington
recognized It in the days of Napo
leon's success. ' . ' '
Speaking of Napoleon, Wellington
is reported to have said that the for
mer had "one prodigious advantage
he had no responsibility, he could
do as he pleased. No man ever lost
more armies than he did; I could not
risk a man. I knew that it ever I
lost 600 men without the clearest
necessity, I should be brought npon
my knees to the war of the house of
commons."
The Germans possess that dubious
"advantage" today. Their masters
are nerfeetlv willing' to lose more
