The Ens,,.hm.n :. . Groove.


In England nine-tenths of the lads
OF the middle classes look forward 70
nothing more than a seat at an Office
desk with a certain number Of shil-
lings a week for a certain numb2r OF
years. To attempt to do anything else
would be to run the risk of social os-
tracism. A young a may loaf re-
specially on his family. but he must
on no account start a business II Il
involves selling anything or producing
anything with his hands. That would
be bad form. 1t would be getting out
side the groove. Thus Tor the great
mass of the people England holds NO
romance. The lad who thinks he could
