EVKIIY MAN A KING. Why shouldn't we imitate? This question may well bo asked in view of tho advice given by Willa Si bcrt Cather, distinguhcd Nebraska author, in her lecture here. "It seems to mo as 1 travel out through tho great middle west, the people are trying to imitate New York," Miss Cather said. Her ob serving eyes have seen the smaller emes iiping me jri'iuer. .turn suu pleads for development of individu ality. If New Yoik is successful and truly great, would it not be proper to copy that city's industry, gaiety, serious ness and sadness? Should wo not even imitntc a gieat personality? Decidedly not. Imitations are nev er the original. And counterfeits arc an abomination. Monkeys imitate; so do childien until they glow up and learn to reason. Intelligence seeks the cause and tiie. to discover prin ciples. ' Where theie is complete agreement between an individual's standaids and those of his community, it is proper for him to conform. But he cannot agree with custom that is opposed to his essential ideas of what i- light without becoming an im proper person. The pioper person seeks full ex pression of the essential qualities of ins r-eing. it a community or even the world docs not gie him room, he is apt to be called as improper per son. But so long as ho remains sin- ccie and devoted to the standard of what he considers correct, he is proper to himself even if he is not to the community standard. To men who arc really pioper, the race owes whatever progress it has made. The so-called "proper" perron, who bows to conventional modes of conduct because it is considered right, regardless of whether it is, is among the host of imitators who contribute nothing to progress. When the race, the community or the individual becomes more interest ed in discovering principles that arc eternal, many old customs will bo reverenced more highly. Many will be abandoned ana viewed as moss grown ruins of the medieval age. The desire must be to discover the spirit that made men, cities and na tions great. And again tradition must be challenged in tho reputation it has given outstanding men. The individualist travels a rugged road. Perhaps it is best so. The imitator of others may travel a safer and easier road, but he is not entitled to wear the crown jewels. Miss Cather, as Omaha had an op portunity to learn during her short visit, practices what she preaches. She has the courage to be simply and frankly herself. She proclaims the truth as she believes it, serenely in different whether her angle of vision be that of the multitude or not. She docs not strive to make "a good im pression" in the conventional sense. She would scorn to resoit to protec tive coloration. Her passion is to ex press herself, to leveal, as .she sec it, human life with its joys and sor rows, its frailities and beauty, its it, human life with its joys and sor- needs, its aspirations, its rights that dignify it, honestly nnd with candor. It is this essential integrity of mind and soul that has made it possi ble for Willa Cather to do work worth while, woik that will live. Tho world is surfeited with people who do not euro to bo themselves, who aicafiaid to tiu.st their own mindr, who lot othcid do their th'nking for them, and legulate their lhing for thorn, and form their flubby character for them.
