Text Appearing Before Image:
Here was struck the dominant note of Edith's
character, which at that early time was obstinacy
and self-will, but which has been developed through
succeeding years, largely by the untiring efforts of
the young girl herself, into a firm determination
and indomitable courage which carry her onward
triumphant over obstacles. From the first Edith
displayed an innate sense of right and duty, to-
gether with unflinching honesty, and, when a temp-
tation arose to depart from the path of rectitude,
she would fight out the battle alone, bringing both
hands and feet into service and striking herself re-
peatedly. If left to herself the victory invariably
rested at last with her better nature, but any asser-
tion of outer authority brought about the triumph
of the evil spirit at once. In later years, when oc-
casion for self-discipline has arisen, it has been
Edith's practice to retire to her room, where, hav-
ing first thrown the window wide open, she seeks a
special penitential seat and silently persists in the
struggle until the right prevails.

EDITH THOMAS.

Being by nature extremely capable in the use of
her hands, the employments of the kindergarten
gave her intense delight and aided greatly in her
development. The gifts and occupations furnished
welcome outlets for her tireless energy, as well as
an opportunity for original expression. Thus, one
day, having finished her modeling in advance of the
other children, she was given a piece of clay with
which to amuse herself. She first made a twisted
stick of candy; next a penny, and spelled money;
and finally a dulcimer, with keys and a stick with
which to strike the notes. This was so well formed
that it would have done credit to a seeing child, and
yet it was accomplished entirely by the aid of mem-
ory, an instrument belonging to one of the little
girls having once been examined by Edith. In the
games and out-of-door sports she found her greatest
pleasure, and her vigor and freedom of motion were
remarkable.
In February, 1890, she was transferred from the
kindergarten to the parent school, at South Boston.
