What you netd is a good insight into human nature. Nothing else .will guide you so surely. Your problem is to know people, to understand the 1im Pulses -back of their actions, to -inter pret their motives by the light of their deedsi One solution of your problem is to meet men, to talk to them, laugh with them, and if necessary weep with them. But, it 'maybe that your busi ness is located far from the inarts of trade; maybe your work demands a concentration that prohibits associa tion with your fellow men, it is even possible that your superior looks not kindly upon your efforts to utilize bus iness hours for the enhancing of your own value. For you there is help, even though your nose be tied to the proverbial grindstone; for you there is the Lau rens Public Library. Someone has asid "Times have changed but human character little." The disobedient Adam, worldly-mind ed Lot, and selfish Dives still inhabit the earth. In every crowd you see a possible Martin Chugglewit, David Copperfleld, or Little Nell-Cooper and Hawthorne could use you In their novels just as truly as -they depleted the life and character of your grand parents' age. So, it is well for you to know that for ten cents a month you may obtain a most valuable business asset. by this time you probably know that the Library Is open from there until flve on Tuesday and Fridays.
