Untered as Sesond Class Matter March 1, 1911, at the Post Office at Highiand Park, Minois Subssription Price, $1.50 per year The soâ€"called "genius" has no more mental equipment than the averâ€" age normal 51101:. He merely knows the secret of applied concentration, says Psychologist William Moulton Marston, who discusses the "secret" in a current Rotarian Magazine article. In this age of distractions, with interruptions by phone, friends, wars, noise, "seares," and our own flightiness, concentration "is essential to the full enjoyment of pleasures or to effective work," and upon concenâ€" tfltflon depends "a man‘s success in this specialized world," Marston deâ€" "The capacity for concentration is in no sense the exclusive property of genius. Indeed it is common to all of us until we lose it or let it atrophy. . . . Concentration is interest in action. Interest in a task, when you attain it, creates attention as a tree bears fruit, and so you find yourself concentrating upon it without effort. Even though you dislike a task, some way can often be found to mcquire this essential interest in it. Men who naturally dislike selling often learn to enjoy work by reâ€" garding it as a contest for kudos, a type of ambition game which naturâ€" ally appeals to them. Many a lazy and excitementâ€"craving girl has acâ€" quired interest in cooking, sewing, and housework, not indirectly, beâ€" cause it means to her husband, home, and children. ‘‘Even after we begin manfully to concentrate," there are a "multiâ€" plicity of thoughts, halfâ€"thoughts, sounds, impressions that crowd into our minds and assail our best efforts." One must learn to "select ruthâ€" lessly from among many interests," and disturbances must be replaced with chosen thoughts. "You cannot push a thought out of your mind," the famed psychologist asserts. "You must replace it with another. If you doubt this, try Walter Pitkin‘s little joke; spend the next 30 secâ€" onds not thinking about the word ‘hippopotamus.‘" A oneâ€"track mind has its advantages, because all of us must cultivate a oneâ€"thingâ€"atâ€"aâ€"time mind to win success. Aids to concentration outlined by Marston include memorizing, reading aloud, personalized dramatizaâ€" tion of the thing at hand, and taking a seat directly in front of the speaker. The rewards of concentration are the ability to do more things, and a greater pleasure in doing them, he declares.â€"From THE ROTARâ€" IAN Magazine. "Views on Many Topics," in a reâ€" cent copy of the Chicago Daily News, contained an interesting letâ€" ter which should be enlarged upon. The letter, from a Chicagoan, states what a hopeless task Hitler will have in subduing Scotland. Quoting from this letter: "The Highlander would rather fight than eat. At the wild screech of the pibroch, he is off on the warpath." As far back as Alexander III, in Scottish history, the national charâ€" acteristic . . . "the cur! o‘hemp in man" . . . was already developing. This is the dogged persistence which the world has recognized as a peculiarity of the Lowland Seot. The Scots of today are the heriâ€" tage of the Teutonic race, which is predominantly German. It is inâ€" teresting to note that Scotland‘s own kin is bombing them now. Besides Scotland‘s brave men, she also possesses the mighty shipbuildâ€" ing facilities for Great Britain. Hitâ€" ler is probably striking there first, because he knows the "Ladies from Hell," as they were nickâ€"named during the World War, will stand a terrific beating before any surrendâ€" er . . . if they would admit defeat, whj_ch is quite unlikely. Men such as Wallace and Bruce have contributed to the greatness of Scotland in history. The Scots under Wallace rose in rebellion against the English, and won a deâ€" cisive victory against huge odds, at Stirling in 1297. Again Edward of England entered Scotland, a n d another champion of the cause was found in Robert Bruce, who, in 1314, at Bannockburn, drove the English into headlong flight and thus freed his country of foreign dominance again. These are a few cxamples of Scottish feats. Romans, Danes, Vikâ€" ings, Saxons and Normans all tried to conquer this valiant little naâ€" tion, but eventually failed.
