It required, indeed, the inspirational vision of a prophet to foresee, in those narrow, skeptical days, the tremendous part which electricity was to play in the civilization of a future age, and I wish again to lay stress on the fact that it was the telegraph which first harnessed this mysterious force, and opened the eyes of the world to the availability of a power which had lain dormant through all the ages, but which was now, for the first time, to be brought under the control of man, and which was destined to rival, and eventually to displace, in many ways, its elder brother steam.
As she stood there drawing on her gloves her visitor had fortified himself against Mrs. Farrinder by another glass of wine she declared to him that she quite repented of having proposed to him to go; something told her that he would be an unfavourable element. "Why, is it going to be a spiritual séance?" Basil Ransom asked. "Well, I have heard at Miss Birdseye's some inspirational speaking."
His muscles were rippling smoothly and sleekly under his spare, healthy flesh he had an absurd desire to bound along the street, to run dodging among trees, to tarn "cart-wheels" over soft grass. It was not crisp, but in the air lay a faint suggestion of acerbity, inspirational rather than chilling. "The moon is down I have not heard the clock!"
From here, from the Esplanade as one approaches from either east or west, and from the Court of the Universe at the rear, the group has the same inspirational quality, the same sense of joyous effort, of courageous striving toward achievement. The placing of the monument where it closes three important vistas is commended for study to those who have in charge the artistic destinies of our cities.
The meeting opened with the singing of six verses of a hymn, the leader reading the remaining verses. Many of their hymns have from ten to fourteen verses. Next he read some passages from one of the inspirational utterances of Metz; after which followed prayer, each man, as in the evening meetings, repeating a little supplicatory verse. The women did not join in this exercise.
When the leader talks he sometimes recounts his early experiences he, like most good salesmanagers, was once on the road himself and if he is in an inspirational mood, gives a sound talk on the principle back of the golden rule. The spirit of coöperation throughout the institution is amazing and the morale is something any group of workers might well envy them.
The Professor started at the strange utterance, looked extremely confused, and, as the boisterous crowd cried "Hear, hear!" he motioned the subject to continue, with some gasping comment interjected, which, if audible, would have run thus: "My God! It's an inspirational poem!" "My head was fair With flaxen hair " resumed the subject. "Yoop-ee!" yelled an irreverent auditor.
The `good' soldier never tries to distinguish right from wrong, he never thinks, he never reasons, he only obeys " "But," Janet was tempted to say, "your syndicalism declares that none of us should think or reason. We should only feel." She was beginning to detect Rolfe's inconsistencies, yet she refrained from interrupting the inspirational flow.
It was the age of Daniel Webster, whose genius is so wonderful that he achieved the four supreme things of four realms, the greatest legal argument we have, the Dartmouth College case; the greatest plea before a judge and jury, the Knapp murder case; our finest outburst of inspirational eloquence, the oration at Bunker Hill; the greatest argument in defense of the Constitution, his reply to Hayne.
There is a stage of development through which he must pass in which the spirit control assumes charge of the body of the medium, and this takes some time and is usually accomplished in steps. First, the medium gives evidence of inspirational speaking by uttering guttural sounds, and very often his mouth merely moves without giving forth any sound whatever.
