Ourselves.
! There have been philosophers who de-
lclared that tho earth ON which we stand
and the stars on which we gaze have no
real existence. but arc merely the out
comes of our inner selves. Perhaps the
best answer to this is that the mind it
self, at least that of most people, refuses
toAreceive the idea. The difference be-
tween the me and the not me is too
sharply defined in the inner conscious
ness to permit Bishop Berkeley's notion
from taking root within us.
Yet we cannot afford TO overlook the
germ of truth which this idea contains.
Though not literally the creation of our
Thought, the outer world is to each one
.of us largely that which wo make it.

weeds, the prospect for future tillage
and the obstacles 10 be overcome. An
other. with painters eye, sees every
variety of form and color, proportion and
perspective. harmony and contrast.
