school Of experience. In all time the men
who have done the most 10 make the world
gladstone and beautiful for others, have
themselves walked in deep shadows. The
great poets, whose immortal strains have
cheered lifc's pathway for the millions.
have learned in sorrow what they taught
in song.
So far We have been considering only the
acc!dentals in life and as nearly all music
is written in "Naturals," with only here
and there the Sharps and Flats thrown in,
to relieve the monotony, so il is in life.
The Naturals embrace the majority of
people we meet in every day living.
Those people, we see so much, and of
whom we hear so little, and who achieve
nothing in the grand opera of lite.
Thousands Of these men breathe, move
and liye-pass off the stage Of action, and
are heard ofno more. They lid not par
ticle Of good in the world, and none were
bles: by them. None could point 10 them
as the instrument Of their redemption.
Not line they wrote, not q word they
spoke, could be recalled, and when they
died their light went out in darkness.
There is another class Of people we may
take for Naturals, who once seemed likely
TO take high place in the world, but who
lei their youthful enthusiasm be cooled off
by contact with the world and It's selfish
maxims, and who in middle life betray
their old hopes and aspirations only by the
bitterness of the cynicism which they sneer
at the unselfsh hopes and plans Of others.
They are the people who ore always CRYING
down humanity, who profess 10 believe
that every man has his price and there Is
M such thing as truth and goodness in the
world. There is also another class, among
those We are apt TO regard as commonplace
who have been prevented by circumstances,
rom developing into what nature intended
them for and who, under al attractive eX.
terror, keep shut up, longings and desires,
which common sense tells them, II is not
worth while to express because they would
not be gratiiied.
At sometime during our lives, We have
all had aspirations to be something differ,
ent from the rest Of the world, to excel in
some one thing, and yet, after all, by tie
very laws of existence, it is certain thai
most of us must succeed in being on'y
very common place sort Of people.
There is some comfort in the thought
however, that the word, like music, must
depend chiefly, after all, upon the Naturals
and if we cannot attract attention 10 our.
selves by peculiar or remarkable talents
we can console ourselves by the assurance
that every note is essential to the CRANE
harmony of the whole, and that the grea
Master Musician knows just where Sharps
Flats and Naturals are needed.
