Gathered around a choerful fire In
tho beautiful lobby of the Elks' Tem
ple last nlgbt, a large representation
of the business men of this city spent
a most enjoyable and prontablo even
ing, listening to an Inspiring talk by
Professor Irving E. Vlnlng of Colum
bia University.
In his subject of Business Psychol
ogy, Professor Vlnlng made It very
apparent that the problems coming
under this head wero of the moat
every day nature. A glowing tribute
to tbe marvelous possibilities of the
Klamath section and to the enterprise
of the pooplo here, was made In his
introductory remarks. Tbe great de
velopment ahead of tbts country., be
' i'J. V. m .1.1 .itt.'.U.
salu, win require iruiu iuc k,cua
that quallty'of nerve which has made
James J. Hill and J. Plcrpont Morgan
ble leaders of the nation. The qual
ity of nerve which, when a decision is
finally made regarding a venture will
causo Its promoter to risk every dol
lar he has In the world, and throw
his life's energy into its accomplish
ment, Piofessor Vlnlng said, Is neces-
snry for tho winner. The man who
bets on the sure thing Is not the man
who does the most for his country.
Find your field of endeavor,, ad
vises Professor Vlnlng, which -does
not mean simply somo trade or pro
fession, but rather the unfulfilled de
sires of tho people surrounding. A
community, In order to grow as It
should, must also find this field of en
dcavor the same as an Individual and
forget personal desires In order that
tho district as a whole may advance.
The power of will Is vitally necessary
nt the bealnnlng of any enterprise,
but with Its progress Interest takes
urn niAiA of will, and tne joy oi
achievement carries the creator on to
Its accomplishment.
A capacity for hard work, entnusi
nsm and character were the three
qualities searched for In a young man
by the late James J. Hill.
In entering an institution of any
kind, keep any criticisms you may
have In mind to yourself until you
have won prominence and respect of
your fellows thru the observance of
their conventions, and then Buggest
your Improvements.
o a-mat was the Interest displayed
In the lecture, and so enthusiastic
ivai-a h hearers, that after the talk
had been concluded Mr. Vlnfng was
prevailed upon to give a second short
talk on the existing war conditions,
which was one of Intense interest.
LOCAL BOY TO ENTER SERVICE
