The truth is that the mind isn't or- ganized on the department store plan, with shoes in one part of it, hats in an- other and pots and pans in another though it may be that some minds re- emble a notion counter with just as | ellancous an assemblage of con- tents. Memory isn't a department or even a service; it's just a name for one of the supports of thinking. When a name won't come, you stop and say, *“Just let me think a moment,” though saying.

To remember what we want, we must forget or ignore all (or much) else. What you prize s a mind well organized for your work. Memory systems often neglect this point. I might like to remember the names of many people who remember me, but I should not like to remem- ber the names of all the Pullman cars I have ever traveled in. That kind of a memory would be a nuisance. And I am not much interested in remem- bering what to me are unimportant dates in history, though faces and dates are the favorite stunts of most memory tems. Mind training Is the more mportant matter, of which memory training is the subsidlary part. It s, of course, important to give attention one after the other to the several parts of an organized process or purpose. So in baking a ple you learn about mixing the ingredients, making the dough, regulating the oven heat and so on, all in the interests of a good ple, which woen't be good unless cach of the processes Is properly ad- justed to the other. Yet thinking and baking as performances are very differ- ently organized. So review your total mental habits. Are you observant cr dreamy? Do you take things in with a wide-angle sweep of attention, or does your ate tention habit work like a bull's-eye lan- tern? Are vou in general concentrated or scatter-brained or absent-minded? Here, likewise, you have to accept your mind habits as they are and adapt them to your work. Yet system and method are useful. Memory systems advertise large benefits in limited flelds, which do not carry over to the actual work that most people have to do. You get a better view of the prob- lem when you limit it to one form of application. “How to Study” is the right kind of a probiem, and there are many good books on that subject. In the course of learning how to study you | get mind training, which includes mem- ory training. And -the same holds of all other kinds of work. (Convright e i Can Now Have Second Choice.
