What is Psychology?

IF you cannot answer this question to your own satisfaction, this page holds more than passing interest for you, whether you are preacher, teacher, or man or woman of business. It matters little what your profession or trade is. To all who wish to " get on " and win solid success, the study of Psychology is indispensable. It is vital to success.

Psychology is the science which investi- gates and analyses all the mental processes by which we build up our knowledge of the world. It is the science of the mind, and it is mind that is going to dominate the world of the future.

The great preacher who draws large crowds, the teacher whose pupils rarely fail at examinations, the prominent man of commerce, the eminent novelist all their success is built upon the bedrock of Psycho- logy. The same measure of success is yours if you will. The study of psychology will give you a full realization of your own per- sonality. What is a man or woman without personality ? To such Psychology is the door leading to an entirely new and higher life. Though the subject is a comprehensive one, yet it is so issued by the School of Simplified Study that the average mind quickly masters it.

It is the easiest possible introduction to Psychology, and the promoters' confidence on this point is such that they have arranged to send to every reader of N. & Q. who sends name and address, Lesson Papers taken from the Course, free of all charge.

The Course has been arranged in the form of question and answer. This plan has the advantage of anticipating to a large extent the questions which students would be likely to ask, and of giving them answers such as are calculated to meet their difficulties. Most students find the ordinary text-books too difficult, and it is to smooth the way and elucidate difficulties that this Course has been provided. In this scientific study of Psychology the whole working of your mind is laid bare, and the student is shown at each step how he can incorporate elements of Psychologic knowledge into his mental gymnastics, and thus render his mental apparatus efficient.

Mind is divided into three parts for the purpose of study, viz. : Intellect, Feeling, and Will. The more a man comes to know his own mind the more will he see its defects, and the greater will be his desire to remedy these defects.

The subjects taught by this System are : PSYCHOLOGY LATIN FRENCH

ENGLISH GREEK (N.T.) SPANISH

LOGIC HEBREW ARABIC
