THE BLACKSMITH.
His Profession Is Both an Art and IA

There are few more attractive places
for the average youth than the village
blacksmith shop. Longfellow did not
express the whole OF IT.:
And children coming home from school
look I'm at the open door;
They love 10 see the flaming forge and
hear the bellows roar.
II has far more valid reason for
hypnotizing the boy than this. The
greatest charm of the blacksmith shop.
both for the young and for grown
folk, lies in the fact that, while it is
a place where handicraft rules. both
hand and brain are required 10 produce
the desired results. IL Is both an art
and a handicraft, for art is either con
structive or Initiative. while a handi-
craft Is either useful or decorative.
The blacksmith must be skilled i'm

AS for hOrseshoeing in its best sense
II rises to the dignity Of one Of the
learned professions. for no one can shoe
a horse properly and not understand
something about anatomy and physiol-
ogy. Looking at Il in this way-and
there is no other right view TO be TAX

one Of dignity and honor. Blacksmith
