Not MycAdoo
On the eve of the Democratic con-
vention, William G. MeAdoo stands
out from the field of hopefuls as one
of the strongest candidate.
After he had built the Hudson
Tunnels he adopted a slogan. “The
public be plem-ed," which is char-
acteristic of the, man and his hy-
pocrisy.
. His great opportunity came dur-
i‘F ing the. “’ilson campaign. As the
campaign progf‘t'saed he espoused
many of the far-sighted policies of
the. nominee.
‘ \Vhen the “’ilson Administration

the Suffolk County Republican Com-
mittee of the Republican Women's
State Executive Committee and Vice

sometimes owe their success to the
misfortune which weights them.
They seldom know beforehand how
far they are going to reach. and
this helps them: for if they knew
the greatness of the task before
them they would not attempt it.
This was an idea of Samuel But-
ler. who believed that he who knows
he is infirm. and would yet clim’b.

he believes to be beyond his reach.

very short steps. looking below as
often so he likes. but not above him.

stopping. and then. sometimes_ be-
holdl he is on the top. which he
would never have aimed at could he
have seen it from below.
"It is only in novels." wrote But-
ler (in his Notebook.) “that handi-
capped people. ‘tlred by knowledge
of the difficulties that others have
overcome. resolve to triumph over
every obstacle by dint of sheer de-
termination, and in the end carry
everything before them.’ In real
life the person who thus starts al-
most invariably fails. This is the
worst kind of start.

"THE GREATEST SECRET of
good work whether in music. litera-
ture or painting lies in not attempt-
ing too much; if it be salted. ‘What
is too much?’ the answer is. 'Any-
thing that we find difficult or un-
pleasant.’ '
“We should not ask whether
others find this same thing difficult.
If we find the difficulty so great that
the overcoming it is a labor and not
our aim altogether. or aim. at any
rate, at some lower point. It must
be remembered that no work is re-
quired to be more than right; as far
as it goes: the greatest work can-

"Jerusba. did you cook some cloves
into this round steak?" a man ask-
ed his darkey cook.
'No. sub; no. suh." that personage
exclaimed. “Why' 1 be cookln' cloves
wif a round steak."
"1 don't know. But—" here the
man of the house turned the steak
over and found a dozen clove buds
imbedded in the meat as if they
had been deliberately stuck there.
"But they smell like cloves and look
like cloves and taste like the devil.
"Oh. I remember now." cried the
wok. ready to confess. ”It's ham you
stick cloves in. aint it."
Mrs. Boddington, who had been
spending the day with Mrs. Codding-
ton. was preparing to go horns. Har-
riet. who had been very troublesome
all day. begged the lady earnestly to
stay to dinner.
“Why, dearie." said the woman.

wanted to be a painter. He wasted
too much time in studying how to
paint and was forced to confess
himself a failure as a painter.
The more he saw of acndemicism
the more he distrusted it.
"if I had approached painting as
l hsve approached bookwriting‘und
music. that is to say by beginning
at once to do what i wanted. or as
near as I could to what I could find
out of this. and taking pains not by
way of solving academic difficulties.
in order to provide against practical
ones. but by waiting till a difficulty
arose in practice and then tackling
it. thus making the arising of each
difficulty be the occasion for learn-
ing what had to be learnt about it-«
if i had approached painting in this
way I would have been all right.
“I listened to the nonsense about
how I ought to study before borin-
nlng to paint, and about never paint-
lng without nature. and the result
was i learned how to study but not
to paint.
"FORTUNATELY for me there
were no academies for teaching peo-
ple how to write books. or I' should
have fallen into them as I did into
those for painting and. instead of
writing. should have spent my time
and money in being told that I was
learning how to write. If I had
one thing to say to students before
I died (1 mean if I had got to die.

“vale. we thus keep our indi-
vidual souls alive the radio will oer-
tsinly era“ the mob mind." So
declared President W. H. P. Faunce
of Brown University. recently. in his
baccalaureate sermon to the gradu-
ating class. "When all men can
think and feet together at the some
instant will they think iustly and
wisely? Million of ideas is no
guarantee of their truth: proclama—
tion is not proof. Vainly does day
unto day utter speech uni-es night
unto night shows knowledge. Back
of all the apparatus on the house-
tops must be the quieted souls who
can say 'Yea' when the world cries
'Nay.’ and remain sure of themselves
and of God.”
To achieve independence of mind.
Dr. hunce said. “we must preserve
‘ in every human life a margin of
leisure and privacy.“
"A printed page that has no mar-
gin offends the eye.” he condoned.
"The man that is aim rushing
about. doing things. is a nun whose
doing has little meaning. A hun-
dred million people running around
like myriads of insects on an ant
bill does not constitute either a de-
mocracy or a kingdom of heaven.
"uany of our young people have
‘soquired the ‘moving picture mind'
—-—ail life to them is a series of
snapshots. with no chance for a
time exposure. Hence they cannot
think straight on any subject. The,
are a bundle of transient impres-
sions and confused ideas.
"Solitude is to the soul what
space is to a growing tree-without
it. the tree or the soul is stunted and
dwarfed. True religion consists
largely in listening. It is not in or-
going or defending but in opening
the soul to the still small voice of
the Divine. Let not your soul be a
cheap lodging house for all vagrant
ideas. but a reception room for jus-
tice. truth. beauty. for God himself.
‘If any man open, I will come in’—
that is the voice of the Infinite.
"Another clear duty emerges—Ab
resist the almost universal tendency
to 'leveling dowp.’ The fundamental
principle of the moving picture is
thdt there shall be no grade:- in pic-
tures. that nothing shall be,thrown
upon the screen which is not equal-
ly intelligible to old and young. to
educated and to ignorant. Shall the
radio also exclude all graded in-
struction. and utter only the platt-
tudes which are equally acceptable
to all mankind?
"A democracy which leads us to
an intellectual melting pot, a. drab
mass in which individual taste and
nonfiction have disappeared. is a
pseudo-democracy and a tyranny."
