Illusion Often Lost
by Personal Contact

The best authors should be read, not
known. Even if poet has written an
epic, one hours association with him
may destroy the most idolatrous read
er's illusion of him.
Your favorite humorist may turn
out to be an ordinary person, dull in
the use of the spoken word. Or what
you believe to be the greatest living
novelist may prove to be little peev-
ish man whose false teeth do not fit,
made intolerant by nervous indigestion
or egotism.
In any case, says Cora Harris in
the Saturday Evening Post, some
writer whom you have admired for his
high notes in the purpling shadows of
a great poem is almost sure to give
vent to some meanly critical views of
men quite contrary to the noble SEN
timents he bugled in that martial epic,
because he was in a divine mood
when he wrote it, and the thing mere
ly interprets his mood, not his normal
mind, which may be a mean little
mind.
