political and social or ganisations that want to keep in the limelight meanwhle our young folk have a fairly cleancut notion of their own about grownups they dont talk about it but its there right enough and deep enough too it will not be blown away by the wind of rhetoric at anyrate youngsters don t say hear hear- at public meetings when platitudes are uttered on platforms in stalnei glass attitudes they have a little sottovoce oh yeah i sea you that is far more eloquent because it is true most grownup hear hears are humbug i like to recall a picture i saw some years ago a gentle silverhaired man in a richly carpeted- library where books filled every inch of wall space i not occupied by door window and wide hospitable fireplace he was a famous alienist authority on mental disorders his name well known to europe this quiet room in an asylum of the motherland seemed a perfect reflex of the great man art and science the art and science of living and thinking serenely and wlselj in his company you felt the presence of a man who could search deeply the brain and its functions and the heart of man too it was a thrill to hear him talk quietly and simply even a humble outsider who didn t know a somatic from a psychic function could under stand what he said with such sym pa thy and wisdom and when we went in he was plaj ing with a kitten i playing with a little bundle of grey and brown fluf that skipped and sprang hither and thither across the crimson carpet be lore the fire the doctor was dang ling before the kitten a tuft of rabbit fur attached to a long black thread the kitten s antics were delightful kitty did nothing that was expected when we thought shed leap she roll ed when we expected a spring to follow a stealthy creep toward the molng fur there was a lightning spring right away into a far off cor ner dark and lonesome it was an exhibition of youths un trammelled fancj the doctor told us later that unexpected reflexes in that kitten were like the pretty fancies and energetic activities of childhood and outh that we had no more right o expect measured and calcul able conduct in vouth than we had to trv and put an old cats craftiness into that little kitten s head simple stuff t erin mrs p talbot of acton spent a few days last week with mr and mrs g a hamilton mr and mrs o a kennedy of hornby were guests of mr and mrs r
