Emma Goldman retains the
youthful spirit, she insists, in
spite of struggles and disillusion-
ments. she has modified her- old
denunciations of America and
socks to rc-cnicr the country.
She has compromised on matri-
niony to the extent of entering
the wedlock though still antago-
nistic to the custom. She sees
the promise of woman suffrage
unrealized. But alto hopes on.

Shortly after my arrival in Eng-
land iwo years ago, a group of
American students invited me to ad-
dress the Auicrlcan Students Club at
Oxford. This surprised me not a
little, coming from American college
boys. whom I know in the past to
be interested only in prize fights.
baseball. rowdyism nt radical meet-
ings and thc doubtful pleasure of
taking the places of striking work-
ers.
Verily. the proscnt generation in
America, i thought. must have un-
dergone considerable changes since
the day when young students drove
out the gentle Eugene Debs from
New Haven. and Ann Arbor boys
tried to break up my meeting.
1 found the group of young men
foregathcrcd in the rooms of a fol-
low student after the lecture to on-
tcrtain mo and fire questions on
every imaginable subject at me.
They were well read in all the host
their own country and Europe had
created—keenly alive to the pressing
social problem of our time. and
singularly free from the provincial-
ism and the priggishness which used
to cramp the body and spirit of
American youth of many years ago.
No doubt. their contact with Eu-
rope helped much to awaken and
broaden the American youth. Travel
is a better medium of education
than college. It helps one to climb
down from one's exalted position
of the “most chosen lnnd and peo-
ple on this planet." it makes one
see that there are others. rich in
culture and experience. who can
teach us much. if we will but bring
to them a receptive mind. And the
events since 1914 at home and
abroad have made the American
youth much more receptive than
was the generation preceding him.

ropean reaction. the American youth

what is real and who: is fictitious in

there is another side to the glowing
picture painted by Fourth of July
speeches. He is now able to pu. his
finger on the many cvils which carn-
est men and women in the l'nltcd
States have been combating for so
long.
There is no blinking the fact that
youth everywhere is in a fcrmcnt. in
revulsion against old idms. old hab-
its, old values—against a world
which is presided over by toothless
old men and spiritually ultlirrcd old
ladies. In vain. they have scaled
America licrmciicnlly against the
contamination of fresh and invigo-
rating ideas.
Youth. like love, laughs at locks
and antiquated immigration laws.
Youth has other ways of fraternm
ing with the awakened generation in
Europe. it has social ideals in com-
mon. literature. the drama. point-
ing. music. All spcak a. common
language and sing the same inspir-
ing songs. The foremost dramatist
in the English language is the
voung American. Eugene O'Neill.
With him are scores of young men

same holds good of the young gene-
ration in the res: of the world. Even
in China. the youth is helping to
uproot the purely ziug traditions and
customs in the land.
Frivolliy Fortunate.
"But." any the windows. “youth
is reckless. frivolous; without stabil-
ity. It has no roots in the past."
Fortunately. how else is youth to
become a factor for progress and in-
novation? Only those grown gray
and stole would attempt to dampen
the ardor of youth -- censure and
suppress all that makes for breadth
of vision. galety of spirit. keen de-
light in the danger of life. and in
the intense struggle for greater
freedom and beauty.
The young generation will have
no interference. It is not only
“knocking at the door." it is break-
ing it with tho flourish. the crash
and the hang of loss which by the
way is itself the symbol of youthful
folly and abandon.
Those of us who have retaincd
a youthful spirit will rejoice in the
regeneration of youth in the world
and will bid it hall and godspeed.

The editors of the Harvard Lam-

only in being boorish. The athletic
authorities at Princeton have now
tried to be dignified in retaliation.
and they have succeeded only in be-
