NEED TO EXPRESS EMOTIONS
Assertion Made That Those Who Re-
press Them Are Guilty Of Great
Mistake.

Pentup feelings must have an out
ward expression. This applies with
equal force to men and women, but
custom and etiquette step in and balk
natures wise provision for our well
fare. In this respect women are more
rational than men. They keep near
er natures plan. They talk more,
thus giving the feelings larger free
dom of expression. II their emotions
reach the overfiowing point they go
and have good cry.
Strange, is it not, that those of the
stronger sex suppress, in their pride,
that which would help them, while
they smoke, chew. drink, swear, and
do other harmful things.
There Is a substitute far better than
those we have mentioned. 1t is music.
Through this we can keep alive the
emotions that mean so much to our
health and happiness. How stimu-
lated and refreshed one arises from
the piano when he has put his whole
thought and sentiment into some IA
vorite piece.
How quickly the tired feeling disap-
pears, and all looks bright, when we
grasp the violin and let all of our
imprisoned emotions flow out through
its sensitive and beautiful tone. This
is the best expression OF our inner
selves. that Graves such an outlet. and
would otherwise die within us from
