As I remarked once before In this column, we 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.

The man who rose to greet me with that fine simplicity of manner which win* frlendahlp on the Inatant, I knew for Solon H. Borgluin. “the prairie sculptor"—-he whose genius has caught and embodied In bronse and marble the fierce, elemental spirit of the vaat 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 these fact*, extraordinary Interest and Importance attaches to Mr. Borglum’s hasty visit to Atlanta. Inasmuch as he comes to confer with the Gordon statue commission in regard to the statue of General John ft. Gordon upon which the sculptor Is now at work. The un veiling of the statue will take place In Atlanta late In June. Instead of in May a* wa* at first Intended, and will be an event In which centers the love and enthusiasm of thousand* of loyal Southern hearts. I say Southern, and ycz the event In of far greater thnn 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 his work on the Gordon statue, "the first model I sub mitted was rejected by the commission. This represented General Gordon on hi* horse, rushing Into battle, hi* hand uplifted ur command. On the pede»tal were Confederate soldiers, marching. Though this was not accepted, I was 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 his troops. Accordingly the statue w hich will be unve tiled in June represents your great gsneral In review*. The ba* reliefs In bronse on the ped estal are an Important feature of the work. One of these Is General Gordon ns the ’Man of the 12th of May.’ when In the battle at Bpottaylvanla he rush ed to the front, turned Lee's horse aside, and fiylng In the face of almost certain death, led the troop*. The oth er ban relief portrays him as gover nor, senator and peace-maker." Surely a great adbject for a grtftt artist, epltmislng a life which will shine one of the brightest stars In his tory so long as time shall last. "Though familiar from boyhood with the history of the Civil war." said Mr. Borglum, *i Immediately began to study minutely Gordon’s career. For, tw r o years and a half. I have continued to study It. and the troubled era In which he figured so conspicuously. And speaking of ihls Southern subject re minds me that the South offer* to the sculptor material a* rich and pictur esque as any to be found in the West, or elsewhere on the globe. I 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 Nouthern chivalry lay ehaltered in the dust; and the dArk shadow* of the race problem which today broods threaten* ingly over this radiant child of prom ise that we call the New Mouth ' Borglum, Man and 8cuiptor. When good foreign blood mixes with American, or assimilates the best In American life, the result Is often he roic. Solon Borglum, born In Ogden, Utah, of Danish parents, exemplifies the truth of the statement. Aa a boy and youth he gave little propdse, 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 his father to take charge of a ranch. Until he waa twenty-three he lived the wild, free life of the plains. One day h!s brother, who waa a successful painter, casually asked. "Why don’t you become an artist. Solon? You're such a work er I believe you’d succeed." ' Strange a* It may seem, this chance remark was the turning point of his career, and after he left the ranch we find Mra struggling ngalr.st poverty in Loz Angeles and later In Cincinnati, and trying to learn to*paint. The passion for art, which had been latent In him so long, was now fully aroused and he worked Incessantly. It was almost by accident that he began to do some modeling and that he discovered sculp, ture to be for him the true medium of expression. "That very year,’* Mr. Borglum told me. *T won a special award at the Cincinnati Art Institute, and later a scholarship. Then ! set out for Paris. But when 1 got there I said to myself, •These people have copied from nature and that Is what I must do at home. Why have I come?’ And the whole time I stayed. 1 struggled hard not to let my work lose Its stamp of Ameri can life. That Is what our artists and sculptors fall to 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 Id America. I wish I could tell you how* deep In me Ilea thin 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. Such ambition in us all Is the only basis for a great national life." As we review hla work we see how faithful he has been to this Ideal. Wherever his groups are found, In 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 Is In sculpture wh&t Walt Whitman Is in literature—a force aa elemental, aa unself-conscious, and Ir resistible as the wind or rain. Speaking of hi* work, some critic haa aptly remarked that inasmuch aa hla message Is not a personal or self- conscious one tt becomes the message of th*' gteat West Itself. What changes hi* work will undergo, and whether it will rl*e to the full measure of great ness when the ego of the man be comes articulate.
