Powerful sending or broadcasting stations must be erected through which the vibration of sound is "stepped up" before it can be picked up by the much higher vibrating energy of the ether and carried in all directions.

 

A "Master Mind" made up of many individual minds, so blended that they produce a strong vibrating energy, constitutes almost an exact counterpart of the radio broadcasting station.

 

Every public speaker has felt the influence of mind chemistry, for it is a well known fact that as soon as the individual minds of an audience become "en rapport" (attuned to the rate of vibration of the mind of the speaker) with the speaker, there is a noticeable increase of enthusiasm in the speaker's mind, and he often rises to heights of oratory which surprise all, including himself.

 

The first five to ten minutes of the average speech are devoted to what is known as "warming up. By this is meant, the process through which the minds of the speaker and his audience are becoming blended in a spirit of PERFECT HARMONY. Every speaker knows what happens when this state of "perfect harmony" fails to materialize upon part of his audience.

 

The seemingly supernatural phenomena occurring in spiritualistic meetings are the result of the reaction, upon one another, of the minds in the group. These phenomena seldom begin to manifest themselves under ten to twenty minutes after the group is formed, for the reason that this is about the time required for the minds in the group to become harmonized or blended.

 

The messages received by members of a spiritualistic group probably come from one of two sources, or from both, namely:

• First: from the vast storehouse of the subconscious mind of some member of the group; or

• Second: from the universal storehouse of the ether, in which, it is more than probable.

 

All thought vibration is preserved. Neither any known natural law nor human reason supports the theory of communication with individuals who have died.

 

It is a known fact that any individual may explore the store of knowledge in another's mind, through this principle of mind chemistry, and it seems reasonable to suppose that this power may be extended to include contact with whatever vibrations are available in the ether, if there are any.

 

The theory that all the higher and more refined vibrations, such as those growing out of thought, are preserved in the ether grows out of the known fact that neither matter nor energy (the two known elements of the universe) may be either created or destroyed.

 

It is reasonable to suppose that all vibrations which have been "stepped up" sufficiently to be picked up and absorbed in the ether, will go on forever. The lower vibrations, which do not blend with or otherwise contact the ether, probably live a natural life and die out.

 

All the so-called geniuses probably gained their reputations because, by mere chance or otherwise, they formed alliances with other minds which enabled them to "step up" their own mind vibrations to where they were enabled to contact the vast Temple of Knowledge recorded and filed in the ether of the universe.

 

All of the great geniuses, as far as this author has been enabled to gather the facts, were highly sexed people. The fact that sexual contact is the greatest known mind stimulant lends color to the theory described here.

 

Inquiring further into the source of economic power, as manifested by the achievements of men in the field of business, let us study the case of the Chicago group known as the "Big Six," consisting of

• Wm. Wrigley, Jr., who owns the chewing gum business bearing his name, and whose individual income is said to be more than Fifteen Million Dollars a year;

• John R. Thompson, who operates the chain of lunch rooms bearing his name;

• Mr. Lasker, who owns the Lord & Thomas Advertising Agency;

• Mr. McCullough, who owns the Parmalee Express Company, the largest transfer business in America;

• Mr. Ritchie and Mr. Hertz, who own the Yellow Taxicab business.

 

A reliable financial reporting company has estimated the yearly income of these six men at upwards of Twenty-five Million Dollars ($25,000,000.00), or an average of more than Four Million Dollars a year per man. Which is a hefty sum of cash in the year 1920.

 

Analysis of the entire group of six men discloses the fact that not one of them had any special educational advantages; that all began without capital or credit; that their financial achievement has been due to their own individual plans, and not to any fortunate turn of the wheel of chance.

 

Many years ago these six men formed a friendly alliance, meeting at stated periods for the purpose of assisting one another with ideas and suggestions in their various and sundry lines of business endeavor.

 

With the exception of Hertz and Ritchie none of the six men were in any manner associated in a legal Partnership.

 

These meetings were strictly for the purpose of co-operating on the give and take basis of assisting one another with ideas and suggestions, and occasionally by endorsing notes and other securities to assist some member of the group who had met with an emergency making such help necessary.

 

It is said that each of the individuals belonging to this Big Six group is a millionaire many times over.

 

As a rule there is nothing more worthy of special comment on behalf of a man who does nothing more than accumulate a few million dollars. However, there is something connected with the financial success of this particular group of men that is well worth comment, study, analysis and even emulation, and that "something" is the fact that they have learned how to coordinate their individual minds by blending them in a spirit of perfect harmony, thereby creating a "Master Mind" that unlocks, to each individual of the group, doors which are closed to most of the human race.

 

The United States Steel Corporation is one of the strongest and most powerful industrial organizations in the world. The Idea out of which this great industrial giant grew was born in the mind of Elbert H. Gary, a more or less common place small-town lawyer who was born and reared in a small Illinois town near Chicago.

 

Mr. Gary surrounded himself with a group of men whose minds he successfully blended in a spirit of perfect harmony, thereby creating the "Master Mind" which is the moving spirit of the great United States Steel Corporation.

 

Search where you will, wherever you find an outstanding success in business, finance, industry or in any of the professions, you may be sure that back of the success is some individual who has applied the principle of mind chemistry, out of which a “Master Mind" has been created.

 

These outstanding successes often appear to be the handiwork of but one person, but search closely and the other individuals whose minds have been coordinated with his own may be found.

 

Remember that two or more persons may operate the principle of mind chemistry so as to create a "Master Mind." POWER (man-power) is ORGANIZED KNOWLEDGE,

EXPRESSED THROUGH INTELLIGENT EFFORTS!

 

No effort can be said to be ORGANIZED unless the individuals engaged in the effort co-ordinate their knowledge and energy in a spirit of perfect harmony. Lack of such harmonious co-ordination of effort is the main cause of practically every business failure.

 

An interesting experiment was conducted by this author, in collaboration with the students of a well known college.

 

1. Each student was requested to write an essay on "How and Why Henry Ford Became Wealthy. 

2. Each student was required to describe, as a part of his or her essay, what was believed to be the nature of Ford's real assets, of what these assets consisted in detail.

 

The majority of the students gathered financial statements and inventories of the Ford assets and used these as the basis of their estimates of Ford's wealth. Included in these "sources of Ford's wealth" were such as cash in banks, raw and finished materials in stock, real estate and buildings, good-will, estimated at from ten to twenty-five per cent of the value of the material assets. 

 

One student out of the entire group of several hundred answered as follows:

"Henry Ford's assets consist, in the main, of two items,

• (1) Working capital and raw and finished materials;

• (2) The knowledge, gained from experience, of Henry Ford, himself, and the co-operation of a well trained organization which understands how to apply this knowledge to best advantage from the Ford viewpoint.

 

It is impossible to estimate, with anything approximating correctness, the actual dollars and cents value of either of these two groups of assets, but it is my opinion that their relative values are:

• The organized knowledge of the Ford Organization = 75%

• The value of cash and physical assets of every nature, including raw and finished materials = 25% 

 

This author is of the opinion that this statement was not compiled by the young man whose name was signed to it, without the assistance of some very analytical and experienced mind or minds.

 

Unquestionably, the biggest asset that Henry Ford has is his own brain. Next to this would come the brains of his immediate circle of associates, for it has been through co-ordination of these that the physical assets which he controls were accumulated.

 

Destroy every plant the Ford Motor Company owns: every piece of machinery; every atom of raw or finished material, every finished automobile, and every dollar on deposit in any bank, and Ford would still be the most powerful man, economically, on earth.

 

The brains which have built the Ford business could duplicate it again in short order. Capital is always available, in unlimited quantities, to such brains as Ford's.

 

Ford is the most powerful man on earth (economically) because he has the keenest and most practical conception of the principle of ORGANIZED KNOWLEDGE of any man on earth, as far as this author has the means of knowing.

 

Despite Ford's great power and financial success, it may be that he has blundered often in the application of the principles through which he accumulated this power.

 

There is but little doubt that Ford's methods of mind co-ordination have often been crude; they must have been in the earlier days of this experience, before he gained the wisdom of application that would naturally go with maturity of years. Neither can there be much doubt that Ford's application of the principle of mind chemistry was the result of a chance alliance with other minds, particularly the mind of Edison.

 

It is more than probable that Mr. Ford's remarkable insight into the laws of nature was first begun as the result of his friendly alliance with his own wife long before he ever met either Mr. Edison or Mr. Firestone.

 

Many a man who never knows the real source of his success is made by his wife, through application of the "Master Mind" principle.

 

Mrs. Ford is a most remarkably intelligent woman, and this author has reason to believe that it was her mind, blended with Mr. Ford's, which gave him his first real start toward power.

 

It may be mentioned, without in any way depriving Ford of any honor or glory, that in his earlier days of experience he had to combat the powerful enemies of illiteracy and ignorance to a greater extent than did either Edison or Firestone, both of whom were gifted by natural heredity with a most fortunate aptitude for acquiring and applying knowledge. Ford had to hew this talent out of the rough, raw timbers of his hereditary estate.

 

Within an inconceivably short period of time Ford has mastered three of the most stubborn enemies of mankind and transformed them into assets constituting the very foundation of his success.

 

These enemies are:

• Ignorance 

• Illiteracy

• Poverty 

 

Any man who can stay the hand of these three savage forces, much less harness and use them for good, is well worth close study by the less fortunate individuals.

 

The 1920's was an age of INDUSTRIAL POWER. 

Now 100 years later 2020 We are an age of TECHNOLOGICAL POWER.

 

The Source of all these POWERS is ORGANIZED EFFORT.

 

Not only has the management of industrial and technological enterprises efficiently organized individual workers, but, in many instances, mergers of industry have been effected in such a manner and to the end that these combinations (as in the case of the United States Steel Corporation, for example) have accumulated practically unlimited power.

 

One may hardly glance at the news of a day's events without seeing a report of some business, industrial or financial merger, bringing under one management enormous resources and thus creating great power.

 

One day it is a group of banks; another day it is a chain of hotels; the next day it is a combination of insurance companies, all merging for the purpose of developing power through highly organized and coordinated effort.

 

Knowledge is general in nature and unorganized, is not POWER; it is only potential power,

the material out of which real power may be developed.

 

Any library contains an unorganized record of all the knowledge of value to which the present stage of civilization is heir, but this knowledge is not power because it is not organized.

 

Every form of energy and every species of animal or plant life, to survive, must be organized. The oversized animals whose bones have filled Nature's bone-yard through extinction have left mute but certain evidence that non-organization means annihilation.

 

From the proton and electron, one of the smallest particles of matter - to the largest star in the universe: these and every material thing in between these two extremes offer proof positive that one of Nature's first laws is that of ORGANIZATION.

 

Fortunate is the individual who recognizes the importance of this law and makes it his business to familiarize himself with the various ways in which the law may be applied to advantage.

 

The astute business man has not only recognized the importance of the law of organized effort, but he has made this law the threads that make up the fabric of his POWER.

 

Without any knowledge, of the principle of mind chemistry, or that such a principle exists, many men have accumulated great power by merely organizing the knowledge they possessed.

 

The majority of all who have discovered the principle of mind chemistry and developed that principle into a "MASTER MIND" have stumbled upon this knowledge by the merest of accident, often failing to recognize the real nature of their discovery or to understand the source of their power.
