VERSATILITY, mm m That thia la an age of specializing is a generally accepted fact, but that to be distinguished, one must specialise is not taken for granted by an English writer who attempts to upset the dictum that except toy concentration of our faculties no great progress can he made in any one thing, and he takes Inane with the underlying that success is incomputable with versatility. Specialization no doubt conduces to Increase (tineas of function, and this is recognized in the principle of the division of labor; but It at least equally trim that the quality of general adaptability la of the hlghcat practical utility. In the earlier ages of history men not ashamed to attempt many thing; and In numerous recorded instances were sble to do them well. Nearly all the leaders of the Renaissance were of this type. Dante was distinguished as a port, patriot, diplomatist, and philosopher. Michael Angslo was architect engineer, painter, p'let, and wculplor. Leonard da Vinci was famous in the varying capacities of artist, soldier, mechanic, chemist, and musician. Among our own countrymen the most remarkable, or at least thr most celebrated, is The Admiral Crichton. At the age of IT he was master of latln, Greek Chaldalc, and.
