somewhat cringing, not to say servile,
attitude towards America which,
with all her sincerity, makes the
authors admiration seem somewhat
adulatory.
Another story of similar meta
morphosis is "Witte Arrives" by Elias
Tobenkin. Here, again, we find a
family, the women and girls wearing
shawls on their heads, the boys in
rags and barefoot, arriving to their
father in America, and again, after
few years elapse, the older boy, Emil,
becomes a journalist, marries, loses
his wife who dies because of their
poverty, but finally "arrives" in the
journalistic world and becomes
he marries Gentle woman with
whom he, Emil extraordinarily
Wilkowsky-fnds he has very much
in common. The story is we'll told,
although in places it savors more Of
journalistic effort than that of fiction,
but it holds ones interest and gives
good insight into journalistic life
in this country. Tobenkin also dem
onstrates that his hero becomes more
of an American than the native
American.
"Witte had become peculiarly
American. He had drunk deep not
only of American ideals, but of
American culture and American tradi-
tions. His articles and editorials in
the Age attracted attention partic-
ularly by their Emersonian flavor.
The cultural background of Whites
writing was that of New England
Not one in thousand readers of the
unsigned editorials on American life
and problems and ideals would
have suspected that they were writ
ten by any one not of American birth.
Many, indeed, would have placed the
writer Of such articles as none other
than a scion of one of the oldest
American families"
ton is Americans in the Making"
by M. E. Ravage in which the story
of young immigrant from Rou-
mania is told. He first lands on the
East-Side but after a while enters
Western college where he is snubbed
by his Gentle fellow-students. Later,
however, he discovers that it is his
peculiar Jewish mannerisms and hab-
it's that are repulsive to his fellow
students, and, having reformed,
they become quite chummy and
friendly with him. Whether in this
metamorphosis actually lies
the road towards true Americanism,
remains a question, which, to my
mind, has not been satisfactorily an
swered by Ravage's book.
