the benefit of the race and not for the profit of a few. In other words, the problems which now confront us must be worked out, if they are worked out at all, in the community. They must be worked out in the hearts and minds of the people, not in the halls of Congress, in party platforms, or on the public rostrum.

“WHATEVER YOU THINK AND HOLD IN CONSCIOUSNESS OUTMANIFESTS ITSELF IN YOUR BODY OR AFFAIRS.”

Whether you accept this as yet or not, consider for awhile the truth that every thought you think, especially those relating in any way to self, hovers around in your mental atmosphere, just as a child stays close to its parent. These thoughts being about yourself receive the life that maintains them from the feeling that you put into them.

In other words, the thoughts themselves are but inert mental forms, but when you think them with feeling of any kind, you fill these forms with life and they become as living things which ever return to you, their parent, to be fed with more of your life force. For all feeling expressed is life, is vital force, and if you only know it, all the thoughts which persistently influence your mind and harass you, are only your mental children clamoring for food and attention, and compelling more worrying, anxiety or fear from you; all of which are excellent food containing rich vital force, and which makes them grow rapidly, until they become so powerful that in time they dominate your mind so that you can scarcely think of anything else.
