SHOEMAKER The world demands that its men and women be useful. It did not always this. The old grayheads whom we call the wise men of ancient useful demand times cared little for ness. They would have been wiser if they had not consid eed that to be useful was to lower one’s self. *Archimedes thought geo etry was debased if it was em- ployed to produce any use result Plato decried thought little of the science of medicine and lew of alphabet jeal writing. Socrates saw no advantage it astronomy except to raise the mind to higher fields of speculation, When Posidonius, a writer of Cicero's time, mentioned the arch as one of the discoveries of philosophy, the intellec tual ones grew angry. They were ashamed to have Posidon ius say sucha thing. They undertook at once to prove that the philosopher Democritus did not discover the arch, or the philosopher Anacharsis the potter's wheel. “in my own time,” writes Sencea, “there have been inven thems of this:sort——transparent windows, tubes for diffusing Warmth equally through a building, shorthand, but the inven tion of sach things is drudgery for the est slaves, Phil ’ arithmetic, phy lies deeper) We shall next be told that the first shoe maker was a philosopher!” This makes us think less of Seneca It might make us think less of philosophy, if we did not understand that philosophy had to grow like the rest of the world 3 . . * The world wants you to be useful If you are not useful, there is no place for you only in the way If you look into nature, you will not find anything that is not useful, citer in her different forms or in what she pro duces. The buzzard is an unclean bird, but he helps to keep the world clean. The thunder storm gives us better air to breathe. The butterflies go from flower to flower, fertilizing them, and adding to the world’s beatty. Every beast or bird Of insect, even the smallest particle of stone and earth, the finy atoms of which all matter is made—cach has its use. lf kt had not, nature would never have created it at all. Seneca and Socrates and Plato were useful in their way: But the shoemaker was of more value to the world than a thousand Senecas. The world needed shocs, and the shoe- maker furnished them, If we can give to the world something that it needs, something that is useful, our lives will have been worth while.
