Even in. telligent and otherwise Well-bal- anced people can be depressed or exasperated by it. The poet Ten- nyson could be made ill by un- favourable reviews of his poetry and the early death of Keats has been attributed to a bitter attack on his poetry. The Danish artist Dore was another genius who re- sented censure of any kind. Those of us who are ordinary folk often act in much the same way. We become suspicious of the critics and feel like telling them to mind their own business. We think the criticism is person< a1 and we wonder why we have been singled out for attacks.

He wrote probably more in sorrow than in anger: “Am 1 your en- emy because I tell you the truth?†. 1n Louis Fischer’s “Life 01 Ma- Ihatma Gandhi,†he says that, one source of Ghandi’s strength was that he did not resent criticism, indeed he welcomed it. He used to say: “My critics are friends in disgulse. They do me a service for they force me to examme myself.†One day after being at a.p.rty the previous evening, he was tir- ed and listless. He didn’t want to open a book or apply hi...self to anything. A friend of his saw how weary he was ‘and knew the reason. He said to Paley: “Will- iam you are a fool to waste your time like this. There isn’t a smarter boy in the college_ but you are not trying to do any- thing worth while. I wish I had half your ability; I would go pla- ces. Although I am your friend, I shall renounce your‘friendship unless you stop this idleneSS and do something." The words sank deep into Pal- ey‘s mind. He knew they were true. He could think of weeks and weeks of sheer indolence while he had spent his evenings at parties which left him sick and tired. The next day he be- gan to apply himself to his stu- dies. From that time he never wavered in his resolution to work. He rose every morning at ï¬ve and worked till nine at night. His industry was unconquerable, and although there was a good deal of competition in that college, at the end of the year he stood ï¬rst. He knew it was utterly'fbulish to fly into a nt of temper when he was criticised. Repeatedly this little man â€" who was a .very big man ‘â€"_â€" thanked 012118132103 calling attention to his weakness- es. he ekamined carefully what they said, then asked himseli how much of it was true. r‘ew of us are big enough to 'do that.

He had a lot 01 .lat- urai ability; it was fairly easy for him to master even difficult subjects; but with it all he seem- ed indiï¬ei‘ent, almost lazy. He spent most of his time in iu.:- ness and seemed to be out for a gbod time and nothing more. He was wasting his time. Many years afterwards he wrote many important books. He was one of the most distinguishâ€" ed scholars of his day and had great influence throughout the world. Some of his writmgs have become text books in Cam- bridge â€"â€" the very place where he had wasted so much time. He said that he owed nearly every- thing to the good friend who had had the courage to give him a scolding, otherwise he might nev- er have waked up. Paley and Ghandi lived in dif- ferent countries and different centuries but they had this in common â€"â€" they could take ad- vice and proï¬t by it. Where smaller men would have“‘flown 'ofl“ the handle,†they looked on criticism as a stepping-stone to character. Our quotation today is by W. Watkinson: “Precious is the discipline of the disagreeable.†of Arab refugees.

' _S the Stanley Cup playvoffs dominate the sport pages of the nation, it becomes increasingly difficult to remember just who it was made the statement that hockey was dying. The highly dramatic aspects of the playâ€"offs have demonstrated (better than anything else perhaps) the long, tedious haul of the 70-game season. Six months seem much too long to wait for honest-to-goodness hockey. Now that it's here, however, (with Canadiens and Beston scaring the daylights out of the two leading clubs) hockey will undoubtedly leave us with a strong taste for more of the same, no matter how extended our wait next season. Losing Winner: The NHL play- offs quite rightly feature the greatest thrills of the game but all too often the human interest stories are not con- fined to the ice surface‘ Mature hockey fans see the contests as tests of talent and skill but to the youngsters who are fortunate enough to see a game it becomes a matter of life and death for their favourites. A little girl attended the ï¬rst Boston-Leaf play-off tilt with her father. She was a dyed‘in-thedvool Toronto fan but became fearful that the Leafs might lose. "Daddy," she announced. “I want Boston to win tonight." Her father glanced down at the anxious face beside him. The game went on and the little girl tried very hard to enjoy herself. She even cheered when it became evident that the Bruins were going to win. When they. had won, she stood triumphantly and accepted the victory quarter from her dad. Everything had turned out all right, it seemed, until the little fan saw the Maple Leafs dejectedly leaving the ice. Suddenly she burst into tears and tugged her father's arm. Outside Detroit's Olympia Sta- dium, a ten-year-old boy waited pltientiy for Ted Lindsa , his hero, to appear for one of tKe play-off “All right, dear," he answered. “I'll give you a quarter if Boston wins.†“Daddy,†she sobbed. “I v the quarterâ€"but my team last!†RICE’S FLOWER SHOP AUTHORIZED DEALER 44 Yonge Street South, Richmond Hill Telephone Richmond Hill 490 Nights, Sundays and Holidays Thornhill 207R6 Specially prepared by a prominen!

He didn’t want a picture of findsay, for his walls at home were covered with shots of the left-winger. The kid simply waited to ask Ted if Detroit was going to win. That was all he wanted to know. If Lindsay said “yesâ€, then the result was “in the bag." Such is the faith of youth. It was dark when the Red Wings began to arrive for the game. A kindly usher had permitted the youngster to stand inside and as the players passed to the dressing- room, he scanned each face for Lindsay. When the hard-playing Red Wing arrived, he passed quickly down the passageway and failed to see the youngster standing quietly in a corner. The kid had lost his coura e. Turning, the ‘boy was making his way towards the street door when a voice called: “Hey, kid! Did you want to see me?†It was Ted Lindsay. Flustered, the ten-year-old stam- mered in the pre. sence of his hero. He forgot his care- fuily rehearsed question and stood embarrassed as only a hero-wor- shipper can. Lind- say was shaken, too. “Here. kid,†he murmured. “Here’s a ticket to the game. We can talk some other time." Moments later the same kindly usher was making a telephone call for Lindsay about a ticket which the left-Winger “was sorry he couldn’t obtainâ€â€"â€"while a happy youngster sat in the lap of the gods. 01' such is the kingdom of sportsmanship.
