Is 20 the Dangerous Age for Men .?

At the age of 20 man is liable to
do almost anything. He is stepping
from late youth into early manhood.
He is about to take his place as a citi-
zen with a right to voice in the
affairs of the nation. He is harassed
by responsibilities and attendant
doubts and fears.
At this age young man spends
most of his time arranging his necktie
and encouraging. a feeble growth OF
down that is slightly discernible just
south of his nose Occasionally he
falls in 1ove-f1irts with matrimony-
escapes falls in, love all over again
escapes once more.
Many professors of one thing or an
other, all learned men, consider that
the age of 20. is the most dangerous
for men. 1t is either make or break
with them then.
Samuel Merwin, in October Cosmo-
politan, writes a story (the beginning
of series) about this dangerous age.
Henry Claverly, known as Henry the
Ninth, is the hero and the first story is
entitled, Henry is Twenty" There is
enough distress and foolishness in it to
make any man or woman look back
and thank their lucky stars that they
got past 20 with credit.
