NEEDS OF "Y0UNG AMERICA''
European Critic Thinks That Youth
Of Great Republic Suffers From
Too Much Freedom.

George Santayana, famous philoso-
pher and writer. in an article written
especially in the Forum ON Americas q
Young Radicals" says:
II have made a severe effort to dis
cover as well as / may from a dis
tance what these rebels want. l see
what they are against-they are
against everything-but what are they
forf have not been able to discover
II. This may be due to my lack of un-
derstanding or TO their incapacity to
express themselves clearly, for their
style is something appalling. But per
haps this scandalous failure In expires
sion, when expression Is what they
yearn for and demand at all costs,
may be a symptom of something deep
er: of radical mistake they have
made In the direction OF their efforts
and aspirations. They think they need
more freedom, more room, a chance to
be more spontaneous. suspect that
they have had too much freedom, too
much empty space, too much practice
in being spontaneous when there was
nothing In them to bubble out Their
style Is a sign OF this; it is not merely
that they have no mastery of the Eng
lish language as hitherto spoken. no
clear sense Of the value Of words. and
no simplicity: that they are without
the vocabulary or the idiom OF culti-
waited people. No, II is not
more freedom that young America
needs In order to be happy; II needs
more discipline"

Ontario folk are turning to auction
bridge as the means of diverting
the evening hours. The rage OF
bridge seems to be growing apace
in the city, which already has the
reputation of playing more bridge
per person than any community in
this section. This increase Is mani
tested in the formation of new
clubs and the extension of member
ship in those formerly established.
The first of the new clubs, which
has not yet taken an official title
was formed Monday evening at the
home of Mr.. and Mrs. Fred j.
Clemo, and is composed of the fol-
lowing couples: Messrs and Mes
danes Clemo, Chelsey and Wilmer
Boyer, G. f. Trow, Don Platt, l.. b.
Cockrum Earl Blackaby and Geo.
w. Hotchkiss.
On Tuesday evening at the home
of Mr.. and Mrs. Larue Blackaby

on, this is a re-organized group
which extended its membership and
will gather every Tuesday evening.

elected president of the club at its
initial gathering.
The Imperial club meets tonight
with Mr.. and Mrs. j. A. McFall.
The first meeting of the Woman's
club was unique in the clubs his
tory. It began this noon with a
luncheon at the home of the Presi-
dent, Mrs. J. r. Blackaby, the mem
bers bringing the refreshments they
thought appropriate without in
forming each other. The only dupli-
cation was a salad, and that just
proved enough to go round while
the resulting menu was all that
the most exacting prearrahgement
couud have conceived.
Last Friday evening Mr. and Mrs.
w. f.. Homan were the hosts for the
first meeting of the Imperial club.
Mrs. c. r. Emison entertained the
Tuesday bridge this week and had
for the out of town guests, Mrs. G.

worth of Weiser, former members.
The Monday bridge club held its
initial gathering of the season at
the home OF Mrs. A. L. Cockrum
this week.
The first meeting Of the Wednes-
day bridge will be held next week.
The Girls club will gather for its
meeting next Tuesday at the audi
torium of the library.
