deal Of enthusiasm and interest.

They learn in suffering what they
teach in song"
Genius seems to be something
which requires from it's possessor
the greatest possible sacrifice. It is
gift which nature rarely bestows on
her children, and when she does, she
frequently withdraws all other bless
ingS.
It's true genius creates world
OF its own, where it rules and reigns
with unlimited power.
From the earliest periods of the
world there have been many records
kept of the great people. and from
time to time, there will appear in
these columns small sketch of some
OF the MOTEL geniuses. There is
Dante, the brightest luminary in the
heaven of Italian poetry, and Milton,
the bard of high and holy themes:
the singular career of Byron, Shell
ley, the deep erring but highly gifted
child of song; Rosa Bonheur. the
great animal painter; Mozart and
Beethoven, and Felicia Hemans. the
sweet song bird of England" and we
will also look for a moment on the
lives of some of Flatheads numerous
talented people-no names will be
mentioned, but their characteristics
and talents will be spoken of, and if
one is good at guessing, you can de-
eide which one of your genius friends
has been described and written
about. There are few people here
V no are the salt Of the earth without
them life would become stagnant
peel There is tendency to degen-
crate into the mechanical, and unless
there are a number of persons in
each locality with eyer-recurring
originality. things would become alb
dead. Persons of genius are
and always likely to be in the small
but in order to keep them.
1t is necessary to preserve the soil
in which they grow.
1t is a pathetic truth that more
children are spoiled by too much
love than by too little. or, rather by
love shown in the wrong way. So
anxious is a mother to see her little
one happy. smiling and happy that
frequently she INDUCES it by putting
aside her work and amusing it by
building houses of their blocks, by
bringing things to them and by max
ing the older children give up to the
baby this will destroy self reliance
and make the child grow up master
full and selfish instead of being help
full, useful men and women.
