INTERESTING TALK
Physchology Applied to Modern
Business by Dr. S. L. Krebs.
Noted Visitor From Philadelphia
Entertained Large Crowd at the
Bice Hotel Supper-Lecture
With Unusual Address.
A crowd of men which taxed. the capac-
ity of the banquet hall of the Rice hotel
gathered as the guests of the Houston
Rotary club Wednesday evening at a.
supper-lecture at the Rice hotel the fear
ture of which was an address bv Dr.
Stanley I Krebs of Philadelphia Pa. on
"The Secret and Pull of Suggestion In
Advertising Salesmanship and Business
Jluilding."
Dan Tucker chairman of -the Rotary
dub committee which arranged for Dr.
Krebs' appearance at the supper-lecture
Introduced the Hpeaiter with the custom-
ary eulogistic remarks.
"Suggestion" said Dr. Krebs In open-'
ing his lecture "is just one chapter in
modern psychology and psychology today
has a number of fixed definite laws which
no man nor legislature can change."
Ilr. Krebs then launched out Into an
Introductory explanation of the meaning
of the words "mesmerism" "hypnotism''
and "suggestion."
Mesmerism he said "is the slightest
possible touch on the skin or bone which
has the tendency to equalize peripheral
sensations so as to produce In the subject
a keen state of happiness. Hypnotism
comes from the Greek word hypnos which
means sleep It Is simply putting the
senses out of commission. Suggestion Is
the importation of an Idea to anothej
mind until you get action from that other
mind along that very idea. Suggestion is
the universal activity of the world.
REVIEWED HISTORY
OF PSYCHOLOGY.
The speaker gave a brief review of the
history of psychology from the earliest
times in the (iarden of Eden down to thu
present declaring. that it is the oldest art
In the history of the world but that It
was lost during the dark periods of the
middle ages. He then proceeded to lay
down five laws for the application of sug
gestion in the modern business world.
"My first law" said Or. Krebs "is the
law of iteration. It states that a selling
argument must be repeated continually
until it wears down the line of least re
sistance in the buyer. If you are adver
Using you should use more than one
newspaper so that your customer will
come to see vour advertisement not once
hut two or three times. Repetition makes
grooves In the minds of people. 1 here-
fore you should only stand for one thing
in your business dealings and if you have
a letter head or an escutcheon or ti nrm
name that lias history of honorable
business dealings hack of it you should
maintain them at all coats.
"The next law which I wish to lay
down is that of Indirect suggestion. There
are only two ways of getting an Idea
from one mind to another either In a
direct way. In which a third party must
figure. I call this latter method trian
gular salesmanship.
"The third of the five laws is the first
constructive law the law of positives.
In the sentences there must he no nega
tives nor must there be a negative In
ference of any kind. Don't say 'don't.'
because every time that you say don't
vou keep going in the mind of your cus
tomer. the very things that you want
him t'o forget. You can state any fact
in two forms one negative and the other
positive one constructive and the other
destructive and it will no doubt he hard
to obliterate the don'ts from your ad-
vertising and literature but there are
only one or two exceptions to this law
and these come up In the handling of
recalcitrants or persons who always take
tire opposite view on any matter merely
to express their individuality.
SALESMAN MUST
USE INDIVIDUALITY.
"The next law Is the' law of attrac-
tiveness hut this is a variant. Vou are
the same your goods are the same but
the customer differs and here is where
the salesman has to study his customer
and use his individuality in arranging
tiie matter so as to make it most at-
tractive to ti is prospective buyer. All
that is necessary is the ability to see
similarities hut here it Is that adver-
tisements many times fall down. Con-
fidence on the part of the buyer i how-
ever goes out toward thoughtfulness and
not toward thoughtlessness.
"The last law is that of expectant at-
tentionthat is attention which focuses
on the future tmd the gain which your
customer is going to get out of the
article which you propose to sell him."
Dr. Krebs concluded his address with a
description of how psychology can he ap-
plied toward remedying conditions such
as the European war. Throughout his
address he interspersed interesting nar-
ratives of experiments which ho had
made and practical descriptions of sales
arguments which held the attention of
the big crowd of business men for almost
two hours.

"There has heen no cessation of the

a statement recently given out by offi-

thorities is no greater nor more inhuman
than that of the military authorities. A

Austrian spies are receiving a groat
deal of valuable information Irom the
many Jewish soldiers employed In the
Russian transportation service. The
enemy learns everything that is going on
behind ourt front through the Jews and
their relatives in Uallcla and Poland.
The Jewish soldiers often manage to be
sent to the interior of the empire on
duty. Their object la to gather Informa-
tion in regard to the movements of our
troops our supply of munitions etc. This
information they smuggle to the enemy as
soon as they reach the front again.
WILL BE SENT TO
RESERVE BATTALIONS.
To break up this system of espionage
and Jewish treason the commander-in-chief
lias decided that all Jewish sohliers
now attached to the transportation ser-
vice shall be sent to the reserve battalions
at once. They shall receive six weeks
training and will then have to join the
regiments on the firing line. During their

have to be kept under constant surveil
