'It is fixed attention to some particular subject. To concentrate your mind on nny work, you must' rigidly exclude from your thought nnything that does not have pertinent bearing upon it. Thought that goes "wool-gathering" never ndvnnccs you; think while you think you think. Your interest in your work will grow as your concen tration .increases! it will be maintained from day to dny as you learn the power of concentration. Yours is the power to master every detail by the concentration of your dynamic powers. With your full energy ap plied to n single purpose, you will surely reach the definite goal. Con centration is the nigh-cxplostvc power furnishod fpr you to blast every obstructing difficulty from your pathway to success. Success Is Goined by Concentration Your ability to continue con centration on your job nnd its various angles is the secret key to your success. Yours must be concentration of effort nnd of action ns well as concentration of thought. First get tho vision of what is required to establish your success-superiority, then fashion your ideal into the real by concentrated action ceaseless sledge-hammer blows of accomplish ment. Do One Thing Better Than Any One Else Cnn Trying to do many things defeats the successful accomplishment of nny one thing. Division of your interest will defy and defeat the favors good fortune holds for you. Your ambition will not be satisfied with tho little knowledge and the little skill of the doing of many things. Specialization Is a result of nbility to concentrate. Both arc factors in gaining accomplishments worth while. Everything yields to superior skill rightly npplicd. Skill proficiency re sults from concentrated application to n definite line of effort. Such n worker is tho employe extraordinary, the result-gcltcr. Your Job-Joy Is Concentration Success As you master your con centration ability, you will successfully specialize and you will know the safety of high position where you have but few competitors. You feel safo and secure. All difficulties have been overcome. Advancement in position and increase in pay always await tho exceptional worker who shows thnt ho has learned to concentrate.

It "will ruin his ability ns a student, riB nn athlete, ns a business man nnd, nbove nil, as a homomaker. Tho world terms It conceit In 'The Stepping Stono" U1I3 overwhelming conceit is satir ized in a forceful nnd striking manner. Conceit Is not self-knowledge. To know one's ability In any branch of activity Is but to add confldenco to that ability. Hut to ovorrato one's ability Is conceit! and It Is this that the new Trlangle-Kny Beo Illm, now playing nt tho Arcadia, lilts. It tells tho story ot a young man, placed on the road to success by his wifo's undying devotion, who, when success comes, loses his perspective of things ns they are, nnd "turns against tho woman' to whom his success Is due. Tho outcomo of this egotism Is n situation at once unusunt and diamatlc. It makes tho hasis for four great reels of n good picture Unfortunately tho scenario writer did not havo courage to end the story with tho unpleasant, but naturnl solution, with tho result that n fifth reel Is needed to put a poor, weak closo on an otliervvlso ex cellent photoplay. Tho thrco leadings roles are played by Frank Keennn, Mary Bolantl and Hobert McKIm. Needless' to Btato that tho pic ture Is nrtlstlcally handled. Nothing less is possible with these nrtlsts In ono cast. Mary Bolaud plays tho wife with n de lightfully charming simplicity that is most attractive. Gowned In exquisite taste, her screen presence could not bo Improved upon for tho rolo sho phiys. Kconaii Is. as always, tho repressed, stony Ice-cold man of steel. Ills hard-lined faco records tho Intensity of his emotions far moro forcibly than tho physical routings of many of our screen stars.

Ho hnd written to tho company asking who played a certain rolo ln ono of Its re cent Paramount Pictures, and tho nn swer hnd been given promptly nnd cor rectly.
