C., THURSDAY JUN Main Dishes Featu & Pretty Globe Trotter Returns From Trip on Famous China Clipper Miss Violet Sweet Haven Has Traveled Far| and Wide as Teacher, Writer and Newspaper Woman. BY LOUISE HARTLEY WASSELL 1SS VIOLET SWEET HAVEN, writer and world traveler, has returned from a 26.000 mile flight to the Philippines and Asia on the China Clipper, the fastest means of transportation in the world. “It seems incredible,” she said, “but I did not see a train during the entire trip from the time I left the Washington Airport in April until my return, having traveled farther in the interum than the distance around the world.” Traveling on three airlines and two steamship lines, Miss Haven flew from Washington to Los Angeles and return. on the coast-to-coast Mercury, flagship skysleeper of the American Airlines; to Honolulu on the Malolo, from Hono- tiful blue Philippine gift of President and Mrs. costume, the Manuel lulu to Manila and return on the Pan- Quezon.” The visit to the Orient was Miss Haven's seventh crossing of the Pa- cific Ocean. She went to the Hawaii- | an Islands in 1928 as a teacher, and the following Summer sailed for the | Far East, where she had an exciting | 10,000-mile trip through Japan, Cho- | sen, Manchuria and China. Before | returning to Hawaii to continue her | teaching, the writer explored the alleyways of congested Shanghai, traversed the great plains of the Shantung Province and climbed Mount Fujiyama, the famous moun- remote islands. 1.000 miles from a tain of Japan | habitation, equipped with amazing | aeh, ’ o | luxury, combined with the enchanting | [{OLLOWING a second year in Ha- | | waii, Miss Haven returned to Japan upon an invitation to teach | in the American school in Tokio.

Reputable Psychia- | trist Able to Cure | Mental Conditions. | | | BY ANGELO PATRI E Ill MANITY has been cursed by fear beginning stay on earth. Adam and Eve w afraid in the Garden brother in fear of him since the Cain slew There is n son or daughter of Adam and Eve who has not a trace of the curse in him, Whe has not trémbled #t a | thought, shivered at a shadow, cow- | ered in the dark. If we could find a way to rid ourselves of fear we would | conquer all evil and know heaven in our time To cure any error one must seek its cause, and we have sought the cause of fear for many centuries with- out success There are those who say that fears are conditioned, that | is, we have an experience that fright- | ens us and the fear is recorded in our | nerve cells thereafter. That might ac- | count for some particular fears. If | & dog bites a man it is not unlikely | that the man thereafter will have a fear of a dog. But what about fears that are so dim that one cannot trace their cause, nor their direction, nor their rise in consciousness? Every- one knows such fears, In a moment of quiet, with no | thought of trouble, a shadow steals over the spirit, a chill strikes the backbone, an uneasy feeling begins | filtering through the inner self. What is it one fears? Nothing. But it is there, threatening, paralyzing the will, chilling the soul. What is the origin of those fears that steal out of the night? That rise suddenly at times of crisis? They are not real, not actual in that they have a definite cause clearly known, but they are there. I don't know what they are or where they come from. I know that they are real enough to bother peo- ple a deal more than is good for them. Not knowing what or why or whence, the best thing one can do is to deny the fear, keep denying it, and keep trying to get hold of a courageous idea It is idle to Deny the fear isleadll)’ until it loses .hold, then try | for the courageous thought. I am not saying to the man who is in agony of fear that he has no fear. I am telling him that he can get rid of it by denying its reality, by saying to himself, in faith believing, that this fear has no roots, no real excuse for being, and that one good sound thought of faith and one of courage, Faith and confidence kill fear. The difficulty is in laying hold on faith | and confidence. When fear takes | hold on a soul, be it child or man, | fear can be displaced by confidence, and confidence cannot be induced by | the victim. It is best to get help from' some understanding friend, or some skilled physician. Don't be afraid to go to a reputable psychia- trist and tell your story of fear and ask for help. Fear that gets such a hold on its victim as to render him helpless needs professional care. This means the care, the help, the advice, of a man or woman who has devoted lifetime of study toward curing mental conditions, which, if al- lowed to go without help, may cause | serious frouble indeed.
