hericanism Never Complete.
In Alexander Blacks Opinion

"Americanism will never be finished 1t
has only begun. The American who doesn't
want any more changes is the kind of
American who keeps the schools, from
kindergarten to university, as they are.
The university teacher who tries to meet
the new day is called a dangerous radical.
"I think Mr.. Johnson is quite right in
saying that the children of the successfully
rich do not carry forward as they should.
The people who are best at carrying are
those who have had to hustle to get some
thing to carry. But l do not agree that
this is a new appearance The world has
always been that way. Each generation
thinks that it has invented backsliding.
plato spoke reverently of the 'ancients.'
From the beginning people have thought
that there were giants in those days-the
days far enough back Snowstorms were
deep when measured on boy legs, and corn
cakes were wonderful to young stomachs.
wealth is seldom well handled by those
who haven't earned it, The father hustles,
with the prospective fun of spending. The
son, true to form, having the wherewithal
in hand, starts after the good time at once.
Great families are not built up that way.
Neither are great nations. The United
States, with a huge inheritance, often
seems to be acting like spoiled boy. That
progress has to be earned seldom appears
to be considered by the inheritors of rich
past.
IF hustle could be inherited. if we could
transmit wisdom, perhaps we should have
a lot of supermen and a lopsided world.
Maybe this is Natures way of keeping the
balance. Each of us has to grow his own
wisdom such as it may turn out to be.
Big men don't drop off family trees ready
built They grow up out of the soil.
"This is one of the reasons why I'm not
afraid of foreigners. We're all imported.

This is the way c. B. Fowler, assistant
secretary of the New York Universitys
School of Commerce and Finance in Wash
ington Square, speaks of the generation of
young men who are about ready to begin
their work in the business world. AS he
has seen and taken stock of 5000 who have
enrolled this year. and as he has had ex-
cellent reports of their immediate prede-
Cessors-the recent graduates of the school
he feels that in justice he must speak in
the highest praise of the young men of
the day.

FOLLOWING along with the wasted
generation" idea, nickname ap-
piled fondly by Owen Johnson to
the rising young sons who refuse to. rise
reveals several other writers who are not
so willing to fall in with Mr.. Johnson's
mood concerning current society. There
are those who hesitate to go on record as
believing that the world is headed for the
"bow-wows." There are even those who
persist in the optimistic belief that the
world is doing very nicely, all things con-
sidered.
In an interview granted to THE NEW
YORK HERALD recently Mr.. Johnson charged
that the sons of successful men in America
were failing to take advantage of their
opportunities in not assuming their re-
sponsibilities. He said that the old Amer
lean strain was gradually losing it's heri-
tage and yielding before another that had
not been long in this country.
Mr.. Johnson has made this waste of a
generation the theme of his latest novel,
"The Wasted Generation" He feels that
the colleges are partly to blame in failing
to inspire men to leadership, and that
Characteristic lack of family solidarity in
American life is a contributory cause.
At any rate, he feels that we are facing
tremendous problem to-day one that
should almost arouse the instinct of self
preservation.

Calling Back Birds.

In the devastated areas of Belgium
and Northern France the birds as
well as the human inhabitants lost
their homes. Their nests and nest
ing places were destroyed.
Now they have been invited hack
for the matter is not merely one of SEN
timent, inasmuch as the birds are need
ed to eat the bugs that devour the
farmers crops.
With this object in view, areas of
woodland are being set aside and
made as attractive as possible to
feathered creatures. 1t is expected
that by such means colonies of birds
will soon be established, and that, with
proper protection, they will multiply
and become as numerous as ever be-
fore long.

ITCHY of the hickory wood and it may
be for that reason your favorite. Gen.
Andrew Jackson was endearingly
called "Old Hickory" by his soldiers

his men on hickory nuts over a period
