SHORT TALKS
By MARVIN HAST
THE MAN INVISIBLE
In recent years we have heard much
of psycho-analysis and of Dr. Coue’s
analysis of the sub-conscious, hut we
really learn nothing new from the agi¬
tation, unless it he an awakened inter¬
est in the invisible part of a man.
Years ago Hawthorne, in his “Scar¬
let Letter,” reminded us that evil forc¬
es hide themselves in the lives of men
commonly considered righteous. And
long before the time of Hawthorne, a
man of wisdom made the assertion
that. “As a man thinketh in his heart,
so is he.”
Notwithstanding these sage observa¬
tions, we are prone to deal with our
fellow creatures from day to day as if
thie open part of their lives were all.
Maybe we would altogether forget the
importance of their inner selves, were
it not for somebody like Dr. Coue to
come along and emphasize the matter.
It is true that the unconscious or
concealed forces of one’s character are
those which make or mar him. The
philosopher Merbart has compared
them to the submerged part of an ice¬
berg at sea. The great mass of the ice¬
berg is below the water line, in com¬
parison with which, the visible part is
of small significance.
No wonder the Master admonished us
not to judge one another. He knew
how little we actually know of one an¬
other’s secret deeds and motives. We
shall do well if we follow the admoni¬
tion in connection with the one to con
sider first the imperfection that lieth
at our own door.
Too much introspection is dangerous,
just as too much of anything is danger¬
ous, but an occasional study of the
part of us that the world does not see,
should prove effectual in properly re¬
newing the inward man.
Even then we shall go on being mis¬
understood by those who think they
know us. This matters little, though,
so long as we are understood and ap¬
preciated by Him who alone is capable
of judging the unseen.
DETERIORATION OF
CALCIUM ARSENATE
IN STORAGE
The May issue of the Scientific Amer¬
ican, in referring to the exhaustive ex¬
periments made by the department of
agriculture, says that it was found
when the arsenate is packed in con¬
tainers that were not air tight, the
salt absorbed carbon dioxide from Hu
air with the resulting formation of
small amounts of water soluble arsen¬
ic. Water soluble arsenic is injurious
to the foliage of the cotton plant. Air
tight sheet metal drums are the best
containers for the storage of calcium
arsenate. Thus do the “mysteries of
chemistry” multiply. But the sore beset
cotton farmer will overcome these sci¬
entific hurdles by the same courage
that has carried him through other
critical situations, although it would
seem that somehow there should be
some simple direct way of overcoming
the boll weevil that would fit in with
the basic fact that, as a nation, we are
a “mechanically minded,” and not a
chemically minded” people.

UPHOLD AUTO SEARCH;
WARRANTS NOT NEEDED
The Washington state supreme court
on April 20 held that police officers are
justified in searching automobiles with¬
out a warrant when there is a suspic¬
ion or belief that the car may contain
liquor. In the case before the court,
State vs. John Hughlett and Ed Tur¬
ner, appellant, Whatcom county, the
officers were watching a place where
bootlegging had been suspected and
the defendants were seen to put a suit¬
case into the car. They were followed
and stopped near the outskirts of Pel
linghuin. placed under arrest, the car
searched and the liquor found. The
conviction stands.
