THE “HEREDITY” EXCUSE Charles Corlew, vagrant, pleaded before a Cleveland police Judge that is whole life has been cursed by his having been christened tn Dabyhood with whisky. What small excuses serve some people as satist tion of thelr failure! It's quite the usual thing for o man to ple od that he is a drunkard end a g00d-fer-nothing because b father was such before him There's the commonest plea of all—horedity, and it's the silliest. Ninety-nine dru 4red will tell you that the takte ullar condition, They le— was forced upon them under » every one of them. ‘The drunkard dees not ive who at one period of his life had not & natural repugmence to drink and did 5 of him own ord and egninst the protest of his stomach and his better nature, batter down @hat repugnance and acquire the taste. Heredity bas {ts limitations. More alluring les and self-delosions have been hung on that word “heredity” than on any other perhaps in all the lexicon of specious sophistry. Man is born of a great father and a good mother. Does that make him great and good? Oh! no. Tt is never claimed that heredity works that way. ‘The man who gets ahead in life ts usually content te take the credit to himself. But the man who goes to the devil always accuses somebody else of having greased the ways. ‘This is not denying that there Is some force tm heredity and more fn early training and environment, but it is a force that except In rare instances may be overcome or rightty directed. Ané out of inherited faults often bloom great virtues. The knowl- edge that you have « weak spot is reason to guard yourself there—« yemson that a man with the right stuff In him will obey. To one of America’s greatest actors was transmitted by his father & double tendency—one for the stage and the other for the bottle ‘The son cultivated the first and repressed the second, and achieved world-wide fame. According to the commonly accepted notions con- cerning heredity he should have reversed the order and gone to the gutter. Heredity is so easy 1 way of accounting for wrong tendenctes that it appeals as irresistibly to certain classes of “scientific experts” ‘am it does te criminals, drunkards and loafers. Quacks gain repute fer profundity by holding ferth on “the laws of beredity,” as If they ‘were mysterious ukases issued from behind nature's vell, which few $ ean understand, but none can resist. Nine-tenths of it all is mere tommyrot. Lets of people who are not criminals, but just morally lazy, plead $m Gefense of their stns that they are “the sum of their ancestors.” ‘Thus they derive the comforting but character-rotting conclusion that they net responsible for their deeda, Every man, ff he be a man at all, is master of his own conduct. Yes, he 1s master, too, of his own thoughts, purposes, {deals and everything of high importance in the make-up of his character. ‘There is nothing in the world that is more tyrannical, yet more tractable, than the human will. Your will {s either your best friend or your worst enemy, By cul- tivation you can make it whichever you please. A man may inherit from parents or remoter ancestors @ nervous weakness through which he may the more easily acquire taste for alcohol. But tn all save one case In '® thousand it is strictly true that ft Hes with the man himself to determine whether he will cultivate that weakness or overcome it.
