1940 AUTO TAGS WILL
REVERSE COLOR SCHEME
Hardly has the memory of the
hard-earned folding money paid
by motorists for their 1939 license
tags faded than the state an
nounces the color scheme of the
tags for 1940.
Nineteen-forty's tag will be the
1939 tag in reverse, as far as
color goes. This year the plates
sport aluminum figures on a
maroon background. Next year,
motor vehicle officials have an
nounced, the tags will have ma
roon numbers on an aluminum
background.

WAKE UP
. AND LIVE
By DOROTHEA BR.ANDE
If you are the possessor of a
very vivid imagination, you prob
ably can practice with no more
than the clue in the sentence:
Act as if it were impossible to
fail. If you are not. or if you
have been badly hurt by failure,
there may be some difficulty in
beginning to act effectively, but
there need not be very much.
To get -at it more slowly, the
idea is just this: Instead of start
ing wherever you are. take time
first to "make up" your state of
mind, the mental condition in
which you are going to work.
You first give yourself a model.
Everyone has had a taste of suc
cess in some line, perhaps in a
very minor matter. Think back
to it. What you want to recap
ture is the state of mind in which
you once succeeded.
Be careful, now; you do not
want to overshoot the mark.
Don't jump ahead into the ela
tion which followed the success
itself. Just recapture the steady,
confident feeling that was yours
when you knew the fact that was
demanded of you. when you real
ized that you could do the thing
that was necessary, that what you
were about to do was well within
your powers.
Now transfer in imagination
that success-sequence to the work
in hand. If you were absolutely
certain that everything about the
present work would go as smooth
ly as everything went when you
succeeded in the past, if you
knew that what you are begin
ning would certainly go well,
from the moment you begin till
the moment of the work's ulti
mate reception, how would you
feel? What is the state of mind
you would be in as you launch
out into it?
Fix your attention on that, for
that is to be your working frame
of mind. Until you can reach it,
refuse to begin; but insist to
yourself on reaching it as soon as
possible.
. When you have found the mood
hold it steadily for a while, as if
waiting for a word of command.
All at ofice you will feel a release
of energy. You have received
from yourself your working-or
ders, and you can begin. You will
see that you no longer have to
push yourself to do the work; all
your energy is free to push the
work alone.
Next, work till you feel the un
mistakable onset of true fatigue.
True fatigue. The early flagging
of attention will be only the old
state of mind trying to creep in
once more when your attention is
elsewhere. If that happens, stop
a second and say to yourself,
"No. That is the way I will not
think!" Clear out the impulse
entirely, and go on working.
