AS We Live
Successful Person Keeps
Himself Always In Mind
? A popular saying has it that,
"If you don't look out for your
self , no one will look out for you."
"This Implies
that a person
should consid
er h i m s e 1 f
first, last and
always if he
'.wants to get
ahead in . the
world. . 'C..
; There is no
JtstTltm if-fiiii ; question , that
Or. Huxlock , the successful
person thinks of others in terms
of himself. When he does things
for others he thinks, either di
rectly or indirectly, of how it
will help him. "'.
This jdoes not necessarily
mean that he expects others to
A. . . J 1 m - -
return tne iavor at once or in
the same degree. However he
does hot do favors if lie feels his
efforts are unappreciated or that
he is simply being used for, an
other's convenience.
un tne otner nana, the suc
cessful person is not selfish. His
concentration on himself is not
so great that he cannot think of
others; too. When he thinks of
others, however, it is in relation
to himself. While' that is not self
ishness,, it is a long way from
complete selflessness. :
Good Opinion of Self :
s.. The successful person almost
always has d reasonably good
opinion of himself and of his
capabilities. This does not mean
that he is conceited to the point
where he thinks himself superior
to everyone else. However, he
knows when he has done a good
job and how he rates in compar
ison with others. - :? -
He does not keep this good
opmion of : himself, to himself,
nor does he flaunt it in the faces
of others. But it give's him self
assurance to. know that he has
no reason to feel inadequate. He
hits the happy medium between
conceit and self-abasement. -LETTERS

(A) You ; are.;. Your wife

had no. interest in the domestic

riage. Perhaps you could arouse
her interest in preparing meals

(A) You may be a trifle "old-
fashioned," but it is a good form
of caution. I am sure that the
majority of the parents of the
young people your daughter en
tertains would approve of your
being in ? the , house. You can
turn over the downstairs to the
young people, but it will have a
good psychological effect ; on
them and on their parents for
you to be in the house.

from colds, let Ihim go . bare
headed. - But if he has one cold
after another, insist that he wear
some covering on cold days' at
least.- - Health is too important
to tamper with, even if his
friends follow the fad of going
bareheaded.-

eluded 48 personal injuries,
down from 152 the year, before.
"While this is encouraging,"
the report . says; "this depart
ment feels that there definitely
is room for greater improve
ment, - and the plans are that
every . effort will be made to
secure this improvement during
the year 1955."
Prisoner Medieal Care .
: Under the heading "medical
care for prisoners," the report
said: "
. "It is the policy of the police
department not to place any per
son in jail who shows any visi
ble sign of being either injured
or ill without first having such
person checked by a doctor. If
it involves a very minor injury,
it is taken care of by one of the
officers, who, of course, has been
trained in first aid. .
: "The department has - con
tacted a number of local doctors
who have agreed to be on call
to take care of - the prisoners.
Funds for this were requested
by the department i and were
granted by the budget commit
tee for this fiscal' year."
- Discussing a personnel proce
dures, the report' said, "The de
partment i has instituted a: sys
tem for hiring ; officers which
includes making a complete in
vestigation of their background.
Before an applicant Is hired, his
fingerprints 'are taken and
cleared through the Federal
Bureau of; Investigation. A fur
ther , check is ' made with all
neighbors, acquaintances, refer
ences and former employers.
No applicant will be hired if he
has ; a criminal record, and it
may be pointed, out here that
there is no officer working on
the department; who has any
type of. criminal record."
Public Relations Policy
- The department has also es
tablished a policy of public re
lations, which . is "directed
toward convincing the public
that police officers .' are their
servants,' and must render: them
