(by LI. A. Myers) {IN every age great people have lived, + but many of them have died without ' their greatness becoming generally ap- ' preciated. Others have lived and died 'and their greatness has come to light 'only after years, decades and even centuries have passed; while in o.hers greatness has been at least partially appreciated during their lifetime, Tha qualifications for a life of greatness that each of us would specify might very considerably, but I believe that place among the great of all time. Of medical men and women the tions are made only by those who pres- ent outstanding discoveries in the diagnosis and treatment of disease or who offer something of scientific value, Because of the great diversity of sub- ing required for admission to the medical profesion and the array of temperamets and individualities ad- only such contributions but also many of a different nature? In fact Schiller and Keats, although physicians, made their most outstanding contributions in fields quite apart for medicine, A Barber's Son Johann Friedrich Schiller was the son of a barber-surgeon in the Bavar- ian army. As a boy he studied latin under a village pastor, from whom he developed such great admiration that ain measure of routine. He was great- ly disappointed, after studying for seven years, to find that he must hold a position offering no opportunity for devel pment, With the appearance of his play, "The Robbers," the Duke was greatly incensed and at one time placed him under arrest for two weeks and later informed him he was to attend to busi ness and write no more comedies. Schiller then wrote a very humble letter to the Duke in which he begged to be allowed time and liberty to con- tinue his literary work. The Duke replied that if he did not immediately drop the subject he would be arrested, By this time Schiller was convinced of the absolute impossibility of any development there so he decided to try to escape from Wurttemberg. He had friends who helped him get away and they succeeded in keeping secret his whereabouts, He next pro- duced "Fiesco," a tragedy entitled "Louise Miller," and "Don Carlos." Friends of Goethe He became a friend of Goethe, who helped him greatly. In the spring of 1788 he was "appointed professor of history at Jena, Just one year later his health broke. He developed what at first was thought to be pulmonary tuberculosis, After that time, during his remissions, he worked diligently | producing his "Thirty Years' War," "Thalia " Wallenstein" "Mary Stuart" "The Maid of Orleans," "William Tor and "Warbeck." In February 1805, eh was prostrated and, being a physician, knew the end was near. During his long illness he had tried everything that was at that time thought to be helpful in the treat ment of his disease, He had led a secluded life and it was not, perhaps, until later years that the world fully realized that one of the immortals had passed on into the immortality of eternal flame.--"Canadian Red Cross." he resolved first to enter the ministry as his life work. It happened that the Duke of Wurt-|| temberg established a school for thel| sons of his military officers, Although the family was strongly in favor of Schiller becoming a minister, they did not feel that it was wise to offend 'h Duke so they enrolled their son for six years' training in this chool.

He field and with some friends founded a literary club, As much time as he could smuggle from his medical studics he devoted to reading and writing, and in fact he would even feign illness and work feverish energy on a manuscript entitled "The Robbers," which proved to be his first play and one which brought his name before the world. In 1780 this was finished and he was appointed phyican to a regiment stationed at Struttgart on a small salary, This meant that he must sil wear a uniform and submit to a eert- (OIC POT A EZ BI TYREOI, Baby Price SPECIAL wi'h hood and finished in Cream Enamel. at less than cost.
