FINDING A
GENIUS
.By w. A. McKeever-
Widely Known Lecturer and Author
and q National Authority on
Juvenile Problems.

A BOY who recently won the
~ first prize in a big kite tour
nament was marked dull" in
the classroom and was about a year
retarded.
A girl who took second place in a
large school exhibit of free-hand
drawings was weak and unsatisfac-
tory" in her seventh grade English.
A high school youth who led in
every class affair and was an ac-
knowledged genius in business man.
agement failed in all mathematical
subjects.
A high school girl who was prac-
tically forced out last year as too
dull to keep up with the course" is
now attracting conspicuous atten-
ton in a needle-art department of a
big store, where her refined hand
work is bringing special prices.
So, there is genius hidden every
where among the children of So
called high degree and among those
of lowly habitation. God Is no re-
specter Of caste or kind. He has
placed inherently in the keeping of
practically every normal child some
form of beautiful latent capacity
that is altogether worth the task Of
training.
Unfortunately, the school still in
sists on hunting for genius In few
book subjects, while 1t fails to recog-
nize the larger field Of inner light.
Some day, let us hope, every helpful
child talent will have its full and
equa share Of training and recogni-
ton.
In keeping with the foregoing
theory, a brilliant housewife and
fine arts graduate has organized
voluntary class Of girls IN pencil md
crayon arts. Half these middle
grade girls are marked SLOW" In the
classroom, but in the special line
they are practically all highly tai
ented. A recent public display of
their drawings was the wonder" OF
the community.
And so 1 appeal to patrons and
outsiders everywhere. Let us help
put to shame the idea Of turning
children out OF school branded as
"dullards" until every reasonable
trial has been made for hidden
genius in the performance Of some
kind Of work which the world
needs to have done.
Let every one hrow out his own
peculiar testing line. Not four or
five school subjects, but thou
sand and one living procedures
which are necessary to keep so
ciety on its feet and moving for
ward. One happy boy-or girl
lover, with an eager group. of the
young lives joining him in the per-
formance OF some necessary in
dustry or art-that is the essence
of a delightful genius finding class.
Especially during the vacation
months is II opportune for anyone
who possesses the mind and heart
to help the young beguile their
idle hours by the formation OF a
project club to work in soil, clay,
wood, stone, drawing, needle.art,
rafia, toy making. house decorat.
