The whole world of art and litera- ture is filled with those who have mis. taken a tendency for a talent. About 49 singers out of 50 have only a tendency to sins. s Most of the short stories in current literature are, possibly, tendencies; they are certainly not talent. Many & person bas misconstrued a_disposition to write a movel to be a Bift for writ- ing a novel. Of most preachers it may be said with charity that they have a leaning toward publi~ speech. All of us poor mortals havé the ten- dency toward paren but how few have the talent to be good parents! How is ome to tell? There is only one test with it. the willingness to do any amount of hard work. If you can gladly give -nur life to your work, suffer for it and tofl and wait and deny yourself for it, you have at least one proof that you have talent. But if your attitude is “1 could if I would,” most like it is a tendency only.
