MIR WELLS GREAT MEN.
Mr.. Wells, a. II wen known,
dislfkes prancing generals and
schemins politicians. He thinks
that the worlds prophets are the
world'a greatest men. 20
Mr.. Wells heads his list with the
name Of the founder Of Christian.
ity. This choice could be objected
to only by the sceptical school of
historians, who think that the
historical character has been -
overiaid with honorific legend that
the actual facts have been lost,
and BY Christians who might feel
that there was some want Of rever.
ence in bringing that name into
composition with others, even II Il
10 placed at the head Of the list.
For this latter reason I should my
self prefer not to include Mr., Wells
first choice In my batch.
ST. PAUL AND PLATO.
Buddha quite reasonably ap-
pears in Mr.. Wells first six. and
1 think he Ia right not to include
Mohammed. Whether the Indian
Asoka deserves such tremendous
promotion ! cannot say. He must
have been q remarkable man, but

modern way Of looking at the
world in q very dark age.
Mr.. Wells finds no room for
any Of the giants Of literature or
OF music In his list.
! win now make an attempt At
q list Of my own.
Among the founders of reiigion,
since have given my reason for
emitting the greatest name Of all,
I should give the first place to
st. Paul. It was he who, under
Providence. made Christianity the
religion Of the ciyilized world.
That he was . great thinker no
unbiased student Of his writings
can doubt; and a . travelling mis-
sionary he displayed unsurpassed
heroism. determination and or.
sanizing power.
He has never been the most
popular among great churchmen.
but he was a greater man than
Augustine, who perhaps comes
next him In power and magnitude
Of achievement.
LEONARDO DA vINC.
Among the great philosophers
I think should choose Plato.
Aristotle was the first and greatest
Of the mighty professors. man Of
encyclopaedia knowledge. the proto-
type Of Kant, Hegel and the rest.
But Plato's influence on human
thought has been quite a. great.
He was not only . thinker, but
. poet and prophet. and one Of
the supreme masters Of prose 1T
eraturs. Whatever happens TO
other schools Of philosophy. there
win always be Piatonists.
I have no hesitation In placing
Leonardo da vinci among my first
six. No more richly endowed na-
ture has ever existed. Time has
dealt hardly with his paintings.
Like Turner, he seems to have.
been unfortunate In his choice Of
pigments: they have faded sadly.
But good judges are unanimous
in putting him in the front rank.
And Leonardo was an almost uni
versal genius. -
He was q. sculptor and q poet.
as wen as, q painter. and his
achievements a. a scientific. In.
ventor are amazing.
A LITERARY NAME. aa. -
ono great literary name must
be included. Perhaps II does not
matter much whether We choose
Aeschylus or sophocies or Shake
speare as our Representative.
But our great English dramatist
In not likely TO be dethroned from
the pedestal on which German, a.
well a. English. Admiration has set
him. -

notone has q better right to repre-
sent creative and imaginative iit-
ersture. and there wsS win venture
