A YOUNG woman who has for si* years been engaged In a love affair with a young man whose elation la higher than her own, finds that he la now becoming Indiffer ent to her and bestowing hls attention* upon other* In hls own class.

How can I obliterate this wasted paasten from my heart and her from my mind?” My two correspondents have given me a difficult problem to solve. As 1 remarked once before In this column, w© have many professors of memory In the land, but none of forgetfulness There are various methods which teach us how to recollect, but no method teaches us how to efface unwelcome memories from the mind. Destroy Mementos. Yet there Is a method for those few who have the determination, the will power and the perseverance to pursue It. In the first place, throw away every memento and token of the person and experience you desire to forget. If It Is possible, change your location and go among new scenes and surround your- * self with new faces. Fill every hour with work nnd study. Take upon yourself new nnd engross ing duties..Be occupied; employ your day* so thoroughly that you are phy sically and mentally fatigued when night comes. Exercise In the open air as much as possible and take cold baths once or twice a day. This will Induce sleep. When the fascinating yet unwelcome memory undertakes to assert Itself turn Immediately and busy yourself about some task which requires all your pow ers of concentration. Interest yourself In other people’s Uvea. Do what you can every hour of every day as you pass along the highway of life to cheer, encourage and comfort every fellow' traveler.

The man who rose to greet me with that fine simplicity of manner,which wins'friendship on the instant, I knew for Ho!on II. Borglum. “the prairie sculptor”—ha w hose genius has caught and embodied In bronse and marble the fierce, elemental spirit of the vast West, and whose work not only ac cords him a place In the foremost rank of American sculptors, but gives prom Ise of universal greatness. Apart from there facts, extraordinary Interest and Importance attaches to Mr. Borglum’* hasty visit to Atlanta, Inasmuch as he comes to confer with the Qordon statue commission in regard to the statue of General John B. Gordon upon which the sculptor is now at work; ^The un veiling of the statue will take place In Atlanta late In June. Instead ot In May as was at first Intended, and will be an event In which centers the love and enthusiasm of thousands of loyal Southern hearts. 1 say Southern, nnd yet the event Is of far greater than sectional Interest, subscriptions for the statue having been received from ev ery part of these United States. Ev ery hero belongs to the world. ”As you probably know,” said Mr. Borglum. when asked to tell of hls work on the Gordon statue, “the first model I sub mitted w*as rejected by the commission. This represented General Gordon on hls horse, rushing Into battle, hls hand uplifted In commaftd. Onttrr-pedestal were Confederate soldiers, marching. Though this was not accepted, I wax later given the award of the commis sion. and learned that the preference of the veterans was a statue which should represent General Gordon In review' of hls troops. Accordingly the statue w hich will be unve tiled In June represents your great general In review. The bas reliefs In bronse on the ped estal are an important feature of the work. Orta of these is General Gordon as the ’Man of the 12th of May,* when in the battle at Spottsylvanla he rush ed to the front, turned Lee’s horse aside, and flying In the face of almost certain death, led the troops. The oth er bas relief portrays him as gover nor. senator and peace-maker." Surely a great subject for a great artist, epltmtxlng a life which will shine one of ihe brightest stars In hls- LITERARY STUDY SECTION On account of the threatening weath er there will be no meeting of the Literary Study Section at the Woman’s Club.

Invited to meet them will be fifty or more of the friends of Mr and Mm, Inman. The banjo phtylrig of Mr. nnd Mr*. Jones will be a charming feature *? the evening’s entertainment. Mr. and Mrs. June* are artist* and have been, und areint present, under contract for a CH eiat pre imj OREM Seething hough familiar from boyhood with the history of the Civil war,” said Mr. Borglum. ”1 Immediately began to study minutely Gordon’s career. For two years and a half, I have continued to study It. and the troubled era in which he figured so conspicuously. AmFf' speaking of this Southern subject re minds me that the South offers to the sculptor material as rich and pictur esque ns any to be found In the West, or elsewhere on the globe. 1 hope to do other Southern subjects later.” Who, I wonder, will be the first- to carve In stone the epic of our Civil war; the fierce drama of our Recon struction period, when the flower of Southern chivalry lay shattered In the dust; and the dark shadow of the race problem which today broods threaten* Ingly over thl. radiant child of piom> 1 la« that wo call the New- South; Borglum, Mon and Sculptor. ( When good foreign blood mlxee with j American, or aaalmllates the beat In ' American life, the result Is often he- : role. Solon Borglum, born In Ogden, | Utah, of Danish parents, exemplifies Ihe truth of the statement. , j A* a buy and youth he gave little | promlae. however, of being more than ' a successful ranchman. A timid, quiet child, with an Imagination more lively than any one knew, .he waa considered a failure at school, and at the age of : fifteen he was permitted by hi* father tn take charge of a ranch. Until he wee tw-enly-three he lived the wild, ► free life of Ihe plain*. One day hi* brother, who ua, a successful painter, casually asked. “Why don’t you beconio •in artist, Solon? You're such a work er I believe you'd succeed." Strange ns It may seem, thla chance remark was the turning point of hls cureer, and after he left the ranch we find him atruggllng against poverty In Loa Angelea and later In Cincinnati, and IrylnR to learn to paint. T.hr paaalon for url, which had been latent In him ao long, waa now fully arouaed and hu worked Incessantly. It was almost bv accident that he began to do aoma modeling and that he discovered sculp ture to be for him the true medium of expression. "That very year." Mr. Borglum told me. "I won n special award at the Cincinnati Art Institute, and later a scholarship Thsn t ael ouljor I'arU. i But when I got there I said to myself, ‘These people have copied from naturo and that la what I must do at home. Why have I come?' And the whole time I stayed. I struggled hard not to let my work lose Its stamp of Ameri can life. That Is what nur artists and sculptors fall tn prevent. They go to Europe and become Europeans. They absorb the mythology and classicism which In Europe are the true thing, but which are not true In Apierlca. I wish I could tell you how deep In mo Ilea this American Idea, how sacred It Is to me—the ambition to make my work typically American, to let It ex press the democracy, the splendid youth, the crudeness, too. If you will, of my native country. 8uch ambition in 'us all Is ihe only basis tor a great national life." As we review hie work we see how faithful he has been to this Ideal. Wherever hls groups are found, tn the Salon, In the Louvre In Paris, In the Metropolitan In New York, In Cincin nati, Chicago or elsewhere, they ex press a phase of life typically Ameri can. He »« In sculpture what Walt Whitman Is In literature—a force as elemental, as unselt-conadous, and Ir resistible as the wind or rain. Speaking of hla work, some critic has optly remarked that Inasmuch ns hls message Is not a personal or eelf- consclous one It become! the message of the great West Itself. What changes hls work will undergo, and whether it will rise to the full measure of greet- ness when the ego of the man be comes articulate, It Is Interesting to speculate. three years' concert tour In Europe.
