by me and Mr.. Robertson expected to
find, and did, a kindred spirit, one in

He brought me collection of articles
made by him in the year 1874 of Cali
fornia clays, some in the "bisque, "
others covered with rich, colored
"glazes."
These pieces, yet in existence. are the
first art pottery specimens made OF
native clays
They are beautiful, varying in ext
ure and design.
The thought of founding an art pot
terry for the exclusive use of Californian
materials grew into the most ardent
desire. but was not put to practice then.
Not until after having seen the glori-
Gus exhibits of American pottery at the
Columbian Exposition in Chicago did
Mr. Robertson and myself make definite
plans TO carry out our desired object
We began by making some plaques,
which I decorated by carving and
slip painting" But Mr.. Robertson s
aim was to make clay tests, the previ-
ous. ones which he had made having be-
come useless 10 him, as the same clays
were not obtainable without going to a
great deal Of trouble and new clays
being easily got.
We rented a small place OH Twentieth
street and commenced work in a very
primitive way.
Encouragement we had none.
Unforeseen conditions prevented us
from working as we had hoped to and
in the course of time we ceased our
labors TO take them up again and-to
cease once more.
But 1 could not give up" entirely and
in due time, cheered by fresh hope, we
tried once more.
Ny experience had taught me that it
would be energy wasted to endeavor
to enlist others in the cause; the time
had as yet not come.
Nearly a year ago we resumed our
labors, commencing once more at the
very eginning-making the sample
tests. But while doing so we concluded
to apply the experiments at once and
fashion decorated ware.

1t seems to me this is about as pitiful
reputation as a man could achieve.
Whatever colossal material gain such
man may succeed in accommodating,
his soul wealth would balance easily on
the point of a needle Whatever his
weight in the world of finance, what

is nevertheless a small man in the eyes
of the universe.
1t is only the small man who ever
pauses in this brief little span of life
to revenge his petty spite against an
enemy. 1t is the meager soul that finds
time or inclination to attempt to ruin
anybody.
The great souls hasten on their own
way and go about their own business,
knowing time and justice will attend to
their enemies.

that they catch only the echoes of the
band which precedes Us, is the very
best revenge possible.
Revenge is one of the lowest human
attributes and an Indication of crudity
and ignorance. It is excusable in a
poor, uncultiyated mind, but where we
find it 1ourishing in a nature which has
been given the advantages of education
and experience it is more reprehensible
than many a vice which is more Sc
verely condemned by moralists.
1t is as ridiculous for a human soul to
stop and avenge some petty wrong it
has received as it would be for the
moon to stop in its course and wreak
vengeance upon the cloud which OBJ
scures it or upon the dog which bays
at it. The moon wisely keeps on it's
journey, and the cloud vanishes, and
the dog exhausts itself.-New York
