Combined Effort.

The great artist who paints picture
which compels the admiration Of the
world does not do so with one sweep
of the brush in one moment of insplra-
ton. The great masterpiece Is the
product Of thousands of strokes of the
brush, of infinitesimal bits Of pigment
put on the canvas layer after layer,
each done with cOnsummate art. Every
tiny bit of paint, every swift stroke
does its tiny part toward what becomes
at last a marvel of ages. SO must we
work, stroke by stroke, a bit here and
a bit there, until our masterpiece has
been completed.
