The Curse
OF Critics

AS long, however, as erit;cs ~
and write glibly of Whitman's "ins;m,.
ualism" and democracy" this ac.,..
ance of his work will be retarded r.
long as "eulogy of the work is "a.
hned to more or less vague rann,.,
says De Selincourt, he will rem.;s
iconoclast, formless and wilfm
ponent of certain bold and uncorv.s
tlonal ideas. In each one of Tho.
two doctrines, which were in fart l..
branches from the same root. Wb;,u..
taught a deeper and profounder Iesso.
than most of his adherents find IN n.
poems for the suitable exploitation ;,
kind, sentimental liberalism wh;s
they apply to the social problems ~
the hour. They lay quite too mn,,
stress, in their ignorance, upon ~.
social significance of Whitman's worl
The trite conception OF his "scci,,
conscience" is for them the Alpha and
Omega of the poets message. But
Whitman meant it merely as one =,
those surface indications set in motto,
by deeper current of influences. To,
little attention is paid to his spiritual
impulses of life as the pure source ~
all his faiths and beliefs in the ula.
mate attainment Of self-fulhlment IN
the individual and brotherhood sn,ous
men.
AS De Selincourt remarks concernin,
his attitude toward democracy that
his belief in the possibility of it turn,
on his belief in the Immortality Of thu
soul" The freedom that Whitman
claimed for the individual was not, as
may be carelessly interpreted from his
contradictions" claim to license. Il
is for conditions in which, pleasant OF
unpleasant, there Is prospect of spirit.
ual growth
The message of Whitman with lis
infinite arrays of asseverations and
denials, its bold CALCULATIONS, It's
naked egotisms and barbarc yawps
resolves itself into this essential and
fundamental idea of the individuals
spiritual growth and adjustment At
a tribute to his genius on this coca.
sion of the centenary of his birth |
leave here the words of an English
man who sums up the spiritual sig
nificance of his work to which all
other qualities ard aspects, SO much
overemphasized, are bat subsidiary,
"To his countrymen a vacuity, 5
proser, to Europe refreshment and
an antidote, Whitman bides his time
and remains in equipoise, figure TO
be assessed for hiss inherent value,
apart from tho natural action and re-
actions which he excites. He is the
poet of the principle of life, of the
pilgrimage and progress of the soul
Of perpetual effort and amelioratiof,
of the JOY of spiritual growth. Who
ever we are, he will make a song fOt
US and song even OF the lmperiec
tons on our heads. But if he sings
what we have it is for the sake Of whist
we may and shall have; and so he re-
duces beauty and achieved goodness to
the rank of camp followers, banishns
the dream of perfection by showing
the reality to be at once inescapabs
and inapprehensible. bathing 81
always in the flow of an ever expand
ing fountain, pouring upon US always
the waters Of an ever rising tide. We
can never tire of discovering him, fo'
to discover him is to discover new
world, a new future, q new self"

time and his wife and aged mother were
alone. Fred Roberts, passing on the road,
discovered the fire. The flames were then
appearing on the roof, the attic evidently
having been ablaZe for some time. The
cause is supposed to have been defective
chimney.
The alarm brought many to the spot in
a short time. Passing cars stopped and
strangers gave their assistance as freely as
friends and neighbors. The flames made
rapid headway and it was apparent from
the first that the house could not be
saved. All bent their energies to rescu-
ing the household goods, working until
the flames forced them out. Practically
all the furniture was saved. Much credit
is due to the men on Laffey's furniture
van which happened along. They handled
furniture not only swiftly but systemati-
cally.
The barn was kept we'll wet down, and
was saved although catching fire once or
twice. Mr.. Mason and family are CRATE
full to all who assisted them. He will re-
build,
