MISS HALLAM'S SEVENTH LECTUBE There was another large audience the Art Gallery Hall last_ evening when Miss Alfarotta Hallam delivered the seventh of her series of addresses. _ 33iA suojcci was, ' How to Make a Million--* Honestly.’ The speaker said that elift 1 supposed, they all thought that they could i make money. God had placed them in a I commercial' ago and on a commercial plane. They all had a financial phase to their personality, but 'if they had a weals financial phase they would not bo a unifying personality. She had found some people who had much to say about it being wrong to make money, and that a person who did so had clone it dishonestly yet that person was probably hoping a. rich relative would die and leave him i some money. She had many reasons M believe that it was right to make monej\ They had an idea in tho past th» righteousness and tho power of _ jualdmf money honestly did not go hand in hand. That‘was nob so. It was possible, and they were beginning to find the truth of the matter through tho new psychology The same law that would, make a person ' poor would make him rich if construe- j lively used. Because they had been | ignorant of the law and its operation* : they had been using it destructively, ft j was knowledge they wanted. She was of * the opinion that an individual who could not make enough money for the needs of life could not be a good husband o* a good citizen. It had often been said that money was the root of all evil, but abject poverty was working out move unhappiness and producing more misery in the homes and lives of people than could b© attributed to money. It wao tho love of money which was the root of all evil, and there wore those people who made money their god and worshipped it and forgot everything else. She had found it was right to make money, and to do that they all had to begin. The average person, continued Mis* Hallam, possessed the poverty complex. That was not to say that a person had insufficient to eat. or little to clothe himself with, hut it- meant that he did not have enough money. There wore a great many people who had the complaint, but not understanding it they had been looking out for someone to iay the blame on. The first, essentia! to making money was to find their place in the world and get the big idea, and then set their goal and go For it. -Many people to-day were sticking where they were because they were afraid they would not have a position if they moved on. The next step was to specialise along tho, line of success; to learn all there was to know, and they would then be in a position to handle any position. 'Jim third essential was to see and grasp opportunity. It was all about them—so close at times that people failed to see it. The speaker quoted at length from tho work of Dr Russell H. Gomvell, the American, who conducts a cnllecre, and leaches hundreds of young men through Die money he earned in giving lectures. Slio also dealt with several Americans who commenced life on a few rents and who subsequently became millionaires.

In conclusion. Miss Hallam said that every person had tho talent, the power, and 'the ability to make a great success of life, and to achieve the ambition that was theirs. They hud to have self-confi-dence. because the fellow that thought he could was the one that would get there..
