start in life calculated TO foster his
natural gifts. Geyer did, indeed, do all
that he could for the lads education,
and his mother was sympathetic
enough, II we may judge from the fact
that she was devoutiy thankful for the
promise he showed as a youthful poet.
But while we read Of family affection
in this book, Of schooling solicitously
provided. Of patient forgiveness for
early peccadilloes. it is plain that some
thing important was missing from
those early years, something which
Wagner's character was i'll framed to
DO without. On the whole, we should
say that It was. in the first place, re-
ally penetrating sympathy, and, second
ly, despite the intelligent interests of
Geyer and the family, that atmosphere
Of fine feeling for the things Of the
mind which is partly a matter of breed
ing and partly matter Of culture.
The broad impression one receives Of
the time of Wagner's pupilage is one of
the superfciality and unrest TO be ex-
pected Of the quasi theatrical circle in
which he was brought up Not conclu-
sively knowing his own possibilities. he
appears to have rambled through his
education, now studying with absorption
the classics that touched his Imagination
and now shamefully neglecting the rou-
tine of school. His mother had a horror

employment She was willing that he
should follow art. but only on the az
sumption that this led him TO poetry.

Fate saved him from the chances Of the
duel though he challenged more than
one fire-cator For time a mania for
gambling held him i'm its grip. Little by
little, however. music claimed him for its
own, in erratic fashion he conquered its
mysteries. dabbling in composition. and

for types Of romance and mystery. His

Inn, he takes us only seldom behind the

we have to be satisfied with fugitive
glimpses with odds and ends of recoliec-

mood created in him by Schopenauer'
