In my progress through this world
with what ! am pleased to hope is a
fairly keen eye for the affairs of
nature and of human nature, one Of
the things that has wrung my heart
tnexpressibly is the talent coming I'M
der my immediate observation which
has been lost to the world through
the stupidity and the mercenary
hearts of parents.
Everyone believes In the genius Of
! world-renowned list Of painters,
poets, sculptors, authors, scientists
and inventors; but many fail to grasp
the concrete idea that these bright
and shining lights who have per-
formed scientific miracles. who have
filled the world with household COM
forts, who have, frightened it with
beauty, inspired it with poetry and
-eptranced it with music, all came m
to- the world as little children; the
great and overwhelming majority,
children in homes that knew moth
ing of wealth or position, many of
them in homes of the very poor.
People easily grasp the vision Of the
great achievements but they forget the
small and humble beginnings. They
do not seem to realize that it is quite
as possible that the youngster evin-
cling a tendency to make things with
his hands, to experiment with water
and steam, to draw, to paint, to
chisel, or to make music, in his own
home, given the proper encourage
ment and appreciation, might become
equally as great as any genius-might
even eclipse any work that has been
done previously.
Genius Is Not Declining.
There is no foundation upon which
to base any theory that genius is
either declining or exhausted. 1t may
be that we are not fair judges of our
own work, that it will take the YER
dict Of posterity to stamp some of the
achievements of today as master
pieces in any line; but the prospect
that this till come to pass is quite as
great today as it ever has been.
The only way in which this can
happen is for the children who are
born into the world with strong pre-
elections in any direction, TO be fos-
tered, to be developed along the lines
in which they are interested, with
self-sacrifice on the part of their
parents. with deliberate intention,
with religious care.
There have been observant persons
who have figured that a great nation
al cataclysm was productive OF a
race Of especially endowed genius.
Any outstanding period of national
stress during which the minds Of the
people have been unduly inflamed,
have thought deeply, and have
aspired to great heights, have suf-
fered severely, has produced strains
of genius apparent in children born
during that period.
Several such waves have swept over
ehis country, a strongly and particu-
larry marked one during and following
the Civil War. The war just past,
the cruelest known in history, that

children what it is that they are espe-
cially endowed to do.
One child will sit. stodgy and silent,
absorbed in a send pile, while another
with flying feet and hands is whirling
along the sands, dancing to the rhythm
of the waves, reckoning to the sun
beams, laughing with the wind.
1t would not take me long to decide
which child needed encouragement and
help in the line OF musical and physi-
cal expression.
A Cue for Parents.
One boy is absorbed with a hammer
and a saw, trying to make things,
while another is proving the fields
and woods catching insects, peeping
into birds nests, learning for himself
the secrets of nature.
Certainly should not try 10 make a
doctor OF the boy with the saw nor q
merchant Of the boy hunting bugs. 81.
A thousand examples might be
given. This should be sufficient 10
put the cue into the hands of any
reasoning, thinking parent. .-
The world is so wonderfully equip
ped with public schools and institu-
lions Of all kinds that no very great
sacrifice, as a general rule. is de-
manded from parents in educating
their children to n degree sufficient TO
enable them to continue by themselves.
Such classes and courses can be select
ed in schools. high schools and colleges
as will develop almost any child so
that little special help will set its
feet in the right direction.
What Does 1t Matter:
l plead with the fathers and moth
ers of the present day to watch their
children for any least spark Of genius,
even a latent spark. to give children
every help and encouragement, no
