Environment
By "The Spectator"

S~>>>>>>>~>~~~ -
Heredity is the locomotive.
Environment is the track.
Your inherited abilities and pow
ers give you the force that moves you
forward.
Your environment and opportunities
to demonstrate that force determine in
what direction it is to be exerted.
They form the rails which direct and
limit the energy.
A @Mogul" engine cannot demon
strate its power and speed in a switch
ing yard.
A switching engine can puff along
only so fast, no matter how long or
straight the stretch Of track.
Among men a similar principle is
evident.
A Napoleon in a long period Of
peace would have been unknown.
A Luther Burbank in the midst Of
the turmoil Of constant warfare would
have attracted little attention and
would have had small opportunity to
demonstrate his genius.
Lecky, in his History Of Euro
pcan Morals" points out that each
age has It's own ranking Of the import
ance Of the. different virtues.
In the age of Caesar the heroic
virtues were ranked as Of first i'm
portance, and men were judged as 10
their worth almost entirely upon the
degree they possessed heroism, pa
triotism and fighting ability.
At the present time the amicable
virtues - those Of humaneness and
kindness and ability 10 get along with
otbers-are placed near the top.
If" says Lecky, "a man Of a diff
ferent type (thsn the prevailing stan
dard) arises-if, for example, a man
formed by nature to exhibit 10 the
highest perfection the virtues Of gen
tleness or meekness. be born in the
midst Of fierce military society--he
will find no suitable scope for action;
be will Jar with his age and his type
will be regarded with disfsvor.
IF. on the other hand, q man with
naturally heroic qualities be born in n
society which pre-. eminently values
heroism, he viii not only be more ap-
preciated, but under the concurrence
Of favorable circumstances will carry
his heroism to a far higher point than
otherwise would be possible"
Scant tolerance would have been &C.
corded either a Shelley in the time
Of "Coeur de Lion" or an "Attila the
Hun" in the time Of Puritan New
England.
The spark needs the finder and the
violin the bow to demonstrates their
possibilities. So men need an en-
vironment congenial to their genius 10
produce their best.

Much of the year I must spend in
more or less elaborate living. In
Bucharest the king and queen are con-
stantly at their business Of receiving
ministers, visitors of state, many per-
sons Of importance. Social life must
go on, receptions be attended and
given, conferences held, dinners ar
ranged. Life is Of necessity complex.
How different in summer!
Then make visits to my dear ones
my sisters and few relations and
close friends. In England and on the
coast Of France we live so simply that
it is often borne in upon me how few
things are are really needed to keep
us contented Of heart, active of brain
and in physically good condition.
For the rest, it is mostly display.
social rivalry, mere luxury. Some Of it
has, of course, its place and necessity.
But what a pleasure to be rid of it !!
To walk and swim and sit upon tho
old gray rocks, to chat and play with
children and hogs and to come and
90 as one likes.

One of the laws of nature seems to
be that the mediocre always tends to
pull down the superlative.
Farmers know that if melons with
a fine, highly developed flavor are
planted near pumpkins which have
coarser, less highly developed flavor,
the melons are always lowered in quail
ity.
They have a pumpkin taste, while
the pumpkins remain unaffected.
The same is true Of sweet corn. If
planted near field of cruder favored
field corn the flavor is ruined, while
the field corn remains the same.
In the breeding Of animals the same
law applies. Wiggam in his volume
on heredity, THE Fruit of the Family
Tree" gives striking illustration.
A dog that represented the culmina-
ton in development for hunting pur-
poses was bred with another dog later
found to be gun-sby, and every single
puppy was found to have inherited the
undesirable qualities to the detriment
Of the superlative qualities Of the high
ly trained parent.
Tennyson in his poem, ~Locksley
Hail." says Of superior type of wom-
an married to lower type of man
As the husband is the wife is; thou
art mated with clown,
And the grossness Of his nature will
have the weight to drag thee
down."
Such law running through nature

Natures Progress
By DIR. FRANK CRANE

seems unfair 1t seems antagonistie 10
natures own efforts at progress.
However, when we scrutinize III
working more closely we see that 1t is
really for the protection Of natures
plan.
When we see only the way IN
which the mediocre pulls down the
super we are seeing only half Of the
law.
For the mediocre tends equally 10
draw up the inferior. ''
Society is antagonistic to the proph-
etc and the atavistic, to those who are
in advance of the mass and those be.
hind the mass.
To accomplish lasting advancement
a whole type must be moved forward
from one stage to another.
Both what retards and what bur.
ries. if given unlimited sway, would
tend to obetruct lasting progress.
1t is the great middle mass, which
has neither the characteristics of the
superlative nor the decadence of the
inferior, which has the weight 10 re-
tain the advancement as it is slowly
made.
When you get discouraged by the
seemingly senseless attacks upon those
who appear to have superior ideas re.
member that 1t is balanced. in a long
time period, by equally aggressive on
slaughts upon the decadent ideas Of
the evident interiors.
