an expression frequently uSeu Dy lllei-
ary critics as an eXtenuating clrcum-
stance for the short-sightedness of our
forefathers whenever they have failed
to recognize a genius who was rubbing
elbows with them The critics are wont
to quote johnson and Bacon as an illus
tration. These two literary luminaries
did not recognize in Shakespeare, their
contemporary, the one who was destined
to become the poet of the human race.
johnson condescended to say half
heartedly a few nice things about
the Bard Of Avon, but Bacon did
not delgn even to mention his
name What caused these two acute
thinkers to become afflicted with such
mental myopia? 1t seems there is only
one explanation, and this is that gen
fuses are incapable Of discovering genius
in others. 1t takes an average mortal,
one who is free from that mental abnor-
mality called genius, to perceive and APP
preciate in his fellow-man that trait.

nounced the appointment of thlrty-two
men to fill various offices and boards
because of vacancies, and because of /
new laws passed by the last legisla-

this matter will not be decided until

land.
