is the first workman. 1t is from her
realistic and conservative role that
human industry takes its beginnings.
Perhaps she also assemblies teeth and
pebbles into necklaces, to draw atten-
ton to herself and to please. But her
positive destiny closes the horizon to
her, and the first veritable artist Is

plains and forests, the navigator of
rivers, who comes forth from the cav

the clouds; 1t Is man, through his
idealistic and revolutionary function,
who is to take possession of the OBJ
jects made by his companion, to turn
them, little by little, into the instru-

Taught Primitive Man to Fashion His
Weapon, His Tools and His
Coarse Garment.

The weapon, the tool, the vase, and,
in harsh climates, coarse garment
of skins-such are the first fo~rns, for
eign to his own substance that primi-
tive man fashions. He is surrounded
by beasts Of prey and is assailed con-
stantly by the hostile elements of a
still chaotic nature. He sees enemy
forces in fire, in storms, in the slight
est trembling of foliage or of water, in
the seasons, even, and in day and
night, until the beating of his arteries
and the sound of his steps have given
him the sense of rhythm. Art is, in
the beginning, thing of immediate
utility, like the first stammering Of
speech; something to designate the
objects which surround man, for him
to initiate or modify in order that he
may use them; man goes no farther.
Art cannot yet be an instrument of
philosophic generalization, since man
could not know how to utilize 1t. But
he FORCES that instrument, for he al
ready abstracts from his surroundings
some rudimentary law which applies
to his own advantage.
The men and youths range the for
ests. Their weapon is at first the
knotty branch torn from the oak or
the elm, the stone picked up from the
ground. The women, with the old men
and the children, remain hidden in the
dwelling, an improvised hating place
or grotto. From his first stumbling
steps man comes to grips with an ideal
