Are you an introvert or an extrovert? An introvert, it seems, is a person who, having had a hard childhood, retires into himself and becomes brainier in consequence. Others who«e childhood has been sugary and sentimental live on. the outside of life, because they have never learnt to fear it. The advocates of this theory believe that our stem grandparents did well. ' Henceforth when a local magistrate sentences little Jim to ten strokes or a teacher uses the cane, no agitation in the correspondence column should follow. They are merely making an introvert of little Jim, starting him on the thorny road, to genius or at least brain power, states a writer in an Auckland exchange. Says the exponent of this theory: “There never yet was a great thinker who had a childhood otherwise than unhappy.” There is a sex difference, nevertheless, I think. Jane Austen, and George Eliot were the greatest women novelists of a century, arid both had a phenomenally happy childhood. , The author of “Adam Bede” even said that if she had to come back to earth she’d “be a little sister once again"—which is an unusual aspiration.
