value
Never was there so little neur-
otto morbidness as in this day of
the frank acceptance of the body
and the senses. Our robust youth
are a decent generation. They have
stripped most of the mystery from
life, but they face it clear-eyeo.
The devil is harder to deal with.
But we are analyzing even his
methods, and learning that the best
way to meet hellish wrongs is not
to add fiendish penalty to them
We may yet psychoanalyze the
devil himself into a useful citizen
And the world, though never SO
worldly, was never so idealistic as
now.
Wealth has become conscious
trust, and Service" is the motto
of business. We are tanning and
civilizing the world, the flesh and
the devil. We need the spiritual
too but perhaps it is a good thing
