of the village.
Backed by a landing speed Of 10
miles an hour, the forward momentum
Of the biplane brought the nose of the

that the tip Of the lower left wing dug

To the stanchness of his rugged

1t Is amazing, when you come to
think Of, Il, the degree to which we
allow ourselves to be influenced
by the likes and dislikcs Of others.
There Is not a great deal Of
clear cut individuality ii the
world. A grain or two of dis.
tinctive personality and imposed
upon this, like dust settled over q
smooth surface, bits OF other per-
sonalities, 4 thick, confused layer
finally obscuring what Is beneath
this makes up the sum OF what
we think Of as individuality all
too often.
It is natural to be influenced
by the thoughts Of those about
you. It is tragedy to be obliterated
by those thoughts.
I know a woman who has q
morbid dislike for good music.
Throughout her childhood and girl.
hood this woman was under the
domination OF a neurotic mother
whose sick nerves could not stand
sound of any sort.
And now this woman who Is
perfectly sound mentally except.
ing for her music-phobiae goes
through life denying herself the
beauty and inspiration she might
experience otherwise. This il a
clear case of accepting another's
aversion for ones own-an
exaggerated case, but differing
from the others only in degree.
