Genius AS the Product Of Wars

Theorists argue that, after big war, geniuses
multiply; that babies have peculiar inspira-
ton It often happens that geniuses multiply after
war but no than that genuses multiply in peace
War babies more brilliant in the long than
are peace babies. Going the record Of men and
who have been inspired to work that the world
has applauded, finds that some have been war
babies but of the noted born in times
Of long peace.
Our greatest, Lincoln not born during Just
after great Washington, Franklin, Morse Edison
Mccormick, taking names at random were not born
IN time. On the other hand, the world did see
great light Of genius after the NapOeonic wars; in
England were Huxley, Darwin, Spencer, Maeaulay
Tennyson, Dickens, and Thackeray
But genius is a light that flashes up unaccOuntably
Sometimes only will flash great light in his
day, sometimes group Of men, but it cannot be proved
that peace produces more, that geniuses
only in big families, born Of the wedding
Of cousins, that genius be cultivated artcaly
that genius be thwarted.
Genius remains a mystery No knows when or
where it viii appear whether generation viii have
generous output of geniuses a scanty Witness
the great difficulty the Nobel prize awarders find in
rightly distributing award to genius.
Genius generally is beyond the need Of Nobel prizes;

Genius has found its way in spite OF poverty and

Making New Precedents F. Autos

Washington Will try out the question of response
bility in automobile accidents where machine
driven by and carrying four other men, killed
a trained nurse. The indictment holds all of the
for murder in the second degree, and jury Will decide
far each passenger responsible for the death
of the girl in urging the driver to speed and reck
lessness.
The question is up before public opinion well
before the formal courts to decide how far the
responsibility for automobile accidents goes, and the
severity Of the punishment for injury and death caused
by stupid reckless driving.
The world has learned to dodge motors very adrotly
and surprisingly. It shows great mental alertness
the part of the world that there have been no
accidents; but far automobile drivers have mostly
ESCAPED punishment for the injuries they have DONE and
law and public opinion will have to provide some
fair code for motor drivers passengers, and
