Tennessee Medical College Attache
Studies Mental Phenomena In
Connection With Dreams.
Memphis, Tenn.—Dreams are
prompted by a desire or a fear, and
often come true, according to Dr. C
8. 8lm 1cIns, of the University of
Tennessee Medical College, whose
hobby Is mental phenomena.
“Dreams frequently come true
and there certainly Is nothing un
canny or of the occult in their ful
filment,” Dr. Slmklns said, as he
stopped to chat on his favorite sub
ject.
“We make our dreams come
true,” he said. “When we have a
dream, that Is an expression of a
profound wish or fear. If it Is a
wish we work all the harder to real
ize it.
"Other dreams are prompted bv
fears that lurk in our subconscious
minds, and they, too, often come
true because of the very condition
that prompted the dream,” he said
“You won’t find many dreamers
among plegmatlc people, who are
content to let things rock along as
they are, without any change for
the better.
“Dreams are more frequent and
vivid among highly intelligent and
mentally active people.
"An Individual's experiences from
the cradle to the grave form the
basis for dreams. Any impulse that
registers in the human field of
wakefulness remains, often burled.
In the mind Indefinitely.
"Dreams are set off by some
physical stimulus that occurs in the
hynoldal state between unconscious
sleep and full wakefulness.
"The duration of a dream Is very
brief—no longer than three or four
seconds in the normal person.
'The slightest pain may awaken
a person and In that brief period
before becoming awake, produce a
dream that when recalled later may
seem to have lasted hours.
“In a test we held a hot globe
near the heel of a man. He awak
ened suddenly and said he had
dreamed of running through hell.
"He had seen a picture of Dante’s
burning hell the day before and
in a few brief seconds It come bade
to him with the heat cf his foot
and he dramatized It In his sleep
by running.
"There are two aspects to a
dream,” Dr. Slmklns said. "The
manifest content is the picture in
delibly stamped on our mind. The
latent content Is some experience
in life, woven Into this picture. In
the few seconds of a dream, It is
highly dramatized.”
Dr. Slmklns puts dream books In
the same fake category as occultism
and clairvoyance, but defies any
person to tell him a dream that
cannot be scientifically analyzed. It
provides an excellent index Into
what the dreamer Is thinking, fear
ing or planning, he said.
The Other Side.
(Prom Forbes Magazine.)
The story is told of Chief Justin
W. H. Taft making a rather unfor
tunate error in opening remarks to
the graduating class of an Eastern
college.
He was called upon rather in
expectedly and had not chosen his
theme up to the time of entering
the assembly hall. As he wsnt
through the swinging door into the
hall, the plate on the door with '.he
word ' push" attracted his attent'o.i
and gave him the key word for nis
address. .
“Gentlemen," he commenced, “he
fore entering this hall I did not
know upon what subject I should
talk to you. As I enterea, however,
one word came to uij attention
that expresses and embodies all he
advice I could give you. It is the
only thing by which you can attain
success and the one thing which
you, as men entering the world of
business, must depend upon. You
will find the subject of my talk
printed on the door through which
I entered.'
The audience turnel and gazed
with amusement and suprse at he
plate on the Inside of the door on
which was printed in large letters
the word “pull.''
America Aloof.

It does seem that the foolishness
of keeping out of the league of .ra
tions must be apparent. "Avoiding
entangling alliances,” yet calling a
Washington conference and agree
ing to some disarmament several
years ago. and now sitting at the
London conference and seeking an
agreement with four other nations
to put an end to the financial ab
surdity and war provoking system
of building men-of-war. This is ex
cellent. Keeping out of the league Is
absurd.

Using the Highways for Walkways.
Morganton News-Herald.
Valdese has probably saved lives
by the laying of sidewalks along the
route of Highway 10. In crowded
centers, where the regulation of
traffic within itself Is a problem,
It is a dangerous thing for pedes
trians to use the highways. The
death of the boy at Marlon last
week, following his being knocked
off the highway in East Marlon by
a “hit and run” driver, was prob
ably due to a lack of sidewalks. The
wonder Is that there have not been
more casualties In crowded sections
where pedestrians use the highways
for walkways.
Right.

Governor Gardner again tells pro
ponents of a special session of ti e
legislature that he sees no need for
It. That means it will not be called,
regardless of all the talk about o
need for tax reductions. Governor
Gardner doesn't see any possibility
of helping conditions with a special
session and he is exactly right.
