VJfe the desire to help
people.
If he soaked people a big fee for
his services, Americans would wink
the other eye and say, “That’s it.”
But he doesn’t charge any fees.
Every person who comes to the clinics
is welcome and every person gets the
same treatment and gets it for noth
ing.
If one wants to, he can buy a lit
tle French book in which Coue ex
plains his system. But the book isn't
pushed on you and its cost is only 2
francs. The 15 cents you pay for
it just about pays for the printing.
Also old Marie, Coue’s maid, has
on sale pictures of Coue in his clinic
with his patients. 'But here again
the price is so normal that it merely
pays for photography and paper.
Like Religious Leader
Perhaps the better way to get at
the secret of Coue is to compare him
to the founder of a new religion. The
latter wants all the world to have the
happiness he is sure that it will bring
to them.
That is the way with Coue. He is
sure he has got hold of a great truth
which other men have appreciated on
ly in part. He is sui;e he has invent
ed a formula and a method by which
suffering mankind can make the
most of this truth and get the most
out of it. And he brings to his work
the passion, the faith and fervor of
the evangelist. Only it must always
be made clear that in Coueism there
is nothing in the way of a new relig
ious cult.
Coue finds the doctors agreeing
with him. Distinguished medical
men of France, Switzerland, Bel
gium and Great Britian have recog
nized the value of the work he is j
doing.
Coue himself thinks every physi
cian can profitably use autosugges-
tion in his practice.
One of the goals he has set for
himself on his present visit to
America is to interest the medical
j profession of the United States in
; what he is doing and has done. He
■ is confident, if they watch him work
• and observe the results he obtains,
1 that they will be friendly and not
hostile.
Irom my own observation and ex
periences here, I would say that
Coue’s greatest, value to the people is
that he brings a health gospel of
hope and optimism instead of de
spair and pessimism.
1 don’t know how teachers of rhe
Coue method will succeed, but Coue
himself simply radiates cheer. And
it's contagious, that and the belief
in the power of the imagination, the
unconscious mind, over body.
FUNERAL OF MRS. TURNER
HELD THURSDAY MORNING
Funeral services over the remains
of Mrs. Annie Kate Everett Turner,
32 years of age, who died Wednes
day at her home in Sasser, were held
'lb.ursday morning at 11 o’clock from
Chicapawhatchee church, near Daw-
• son, largely attended by relatives
and friends.
The obsequies were conducted by
I Rev. Rufus Jennings, pastor of the
I Primitive Baptist church, assisted by
, Rev. J. C. Moore, and interment
. was in the family cemetery ne.f
Dawson.
The'pallbearers were S. W. Ken
nedy, Otis Lawhorn, R. L. Williams,
B. ]•, Williams, and Cliff Dozier, all
residents of Bronwood.
Surviving are her husband, J. C.
Turner, two sisters, Mrs. John Wil
son and Mrs. Robert Wall; one broth
er, Theo Everett, of Andalusia, Ala.
Mrs. Turner, who was born and
i reared in Terrell county, had been
I ill only a short time, death result
ing from an acute attack of indi
gestion. She was a resident of
Bronwood, having been connected
with the telephone exchange for a
number of years, and had ortTy re
cently moved to Sasser to reside.
She was a member of the Mission
: ary Baptist church, and lived a con
sistent ( hristian life. Her passing
is mourned by many friends who
| loved her for her many beautiful
' traits.
Taking interest for money lent to
Hebrew’s was expressly forbidden
I by the Mosiac law.
THE TIMES-RECORDER.
CITY SLICKERS AFTER
COUNTRY SUCKERS
Flashing Old Law As They Retail
Red and Green Lights For
Flivvers
According to information reach
ing Secretary McLendon, two men
who claimed to be representatives
of the secretary of state have been ■
idling red and green tail lights in ,
South Georgia counties, on the pre- I
;ext that a federal law requires that
such lights be affixed to all auto
mobiles before March 1.. They not
only sold lights to automobile own
ers, but disposed of territory rights |
in several instances, it is said.
The two men produced what pur
ported to be copies of a law requir
ing red and green lights on automo
biles, motorcycles and other motot
drawn vehicles, their victims say.
It is the belief that an old Geor
gia law requiring red and green
lights on the rear of trains and
steamboats was used as the basis
for a bogus law printed by the two
canvassers. Their victims say they
had only a newspaper clipping of
the act.
The system followed seem.; to
ihave been for one of the men to j
I represent himself as having been ;
I sent out by the seer; tary of state I
to furnish the tail lights immei ‘
diately, because of the short time 1
alloted for compliance with the law, |
while his partner was an inspector, i
checking up on all who didn't buy j
the lights.
The Dudley Hardware company,
of Dudley, Laurens county, wrote i
Secretary McLendon that they were
“stung for $24” by the two sales
men, who appeared to be headed
through South Georgia toward Flor
ida.
“The man who represented him
self as a .it'J.e officer was about 45.
of medium height, fair conip'ex.cn.
clean shaven and wore glasses,” the
Dudley company wrote. “The follow
up man, who said he was an inspec
tor, was short, chunky, clean shaven,
and red-faced. Both were well
dressed.
The Cash Store, Caldwell,, Lau- 1
rens county, wrote Secretary Me- ‘
Lendon as follows:
“We have just bought some star- ■
board signal lens from IL Goodman
and A. Sebring, who claim to be
operating for the state under U. S.
safety applicance act 9761 adopted
March 21, 1922, as shown by the
federal code.”
The letter asl* if Messrs. Good
man and Sebring are all right. In so
far as Secretary McLendon knows,
they are all wrong.
