I think not and take issue with the

Master WOrkmen.
By Pendennis.

There is living today in Colorado
an old man past seventy years,
who is considered the best violin
maker in the world. Musicians val
ue the product of his skill above
price, and esteem it a favor to own
one Of his creations. He does not
make many of his instruments for
he is an artist-a master workman
and has an exacting standard.
With him it is not how much work
can / do today, but how we'll can /
do the task before me.
Recently / read a brief account
depicting the method used by this
old master workman in his work.
How the wood he wrought upon
was selected with great care and
seasoned for many months before
used. Before an instrument leaves
his shop it is thoroughly tested by
him and made as near perfect as
possible. He takes pride in his
work, glories in his skill and re-
joices in the perfection of his Gre
ations.
So do all master-workmen, and
their reward is the admiration and
gratitude of those who benefit by
exhalting example.
There are many master workmen
who toll in obscurlty and receive as
compensation the joy given by con-
templating task well done. The
old violin maker has many brother
craftmen who set an exacting ex-
ample and inspire others to strive
to emulate. Even in the humblest
of toilers there are many master
workmen. Skill is not the gift OF
the mechanic alone, some laborers
have it and are master workmen iu
their calling.
