tht third on# by tha torn* author. It It also « highly
interesting reminder what an outstanding writer and
thinker came from Lavaco County.
The ancestors of Willard L Russell were rnmng
the early settlers in Lavaco. His grandfather H. H.
Russell served also for years at o county surveyor.
This outstanding author Hatted as o working stu-
dent. He became a teacher, then a mining engineer,
reluming to teaching beceuee of his poor health ond
served then os the superintendent of Hallettsville High
School.
But this did not stop him. He studied low ond
became on eminent Houston attorney. Neither was this
oil. Me became deeply interned in man's life ond
inner powers influencing and guiding Ms life.
From his own experience and other sound know-
ledge came his first book, "Peace and Power Within."
Shortly after that onother book followed, "Invincible
Forces."
In his latest book "Belief ond Human Worth" the
author shows how much religion, sound thinking ond
common sense meon in man's life. One may become
a victim of alcoholism. His fate is not hopeless as
Alcoholics Anonymous shows. All depends on how
strongly one is determined to free himself from this
habit. The same is true of ony worry burdening one.
Above all, we should not toke our daily worries with
us to bed, but concentrate on sound sleep.
The greatest power in man's life is religion. So
also some of the greatest thinkers ogree. There is
no question that church and religion are making peo-
ple better. Of course it's not enough only believing in
religion. What counts is how religion is practiced.
One finds in this book "Belief and Human Worth"
plenty of inspiration and consolation. It is indeed pro-
fitable reading obta.noble at Foundation Publishers,
4101 San Jacinto Street, Houston, Texas.
