TRAGEDY OF GROWING

TINE library of Middle-Western city
i recently made a survey of the de-
mand for books in its children's depart
ment and came 10 the surprising dis
covery that "Huckleberry Finn" ranked
below Peter Pam
This is surprising chiefly because we
have always considered Mark Twain's
masterpiece one of the greatest children's
books ever written. But when you stop
20 think ii over, Peter Pans" success
isn't so startling rs it seems,
Because Peter Pan" treats of theme
that has always been close 10 our hearts
the story of the boy who never grew up
Now il you look closely il may occur to
YOU that this isn't altogether flattering TO
the civilization that we have achieved.
Why is il that all of us wish. at times,
that we had never had to grow up?
Isn't it because. subconsaously, we have
found that life isn't quite the glittering,
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. affair we used to
think it was2
For an illustration, consider those exhi-
billions of playground work that our pub
lie schools hold every so often.
You find perhaps n thousand children
grouped together, each neat and shining
in his white track suit. Look them over
and you can find little difference. Billy,
the bankers son, rubs elbows with Icy,
the tailor's boy, while George, the colored
kid, Jokes with Frank, whose father Is
a doctor The youngsters have equality
And each one, very likely, is looking
forward to the time when he will be
mani
Fortunately, these youngsters don't
know what's ahead of them. They can't
see that life is going 10 rob them of that
precious, care-free equality; that pudgy,
pood-natured Billy is going TO become
dyspeptic, irritable old broker; that seri-
Gus little Johnnie is going to become
teacher and fret his life away IN dual
war with perjury and human dumbness
that Hal will be sent TO the electric char
inside of 10 years that Peter and Ralph
and Ike and Bert are going to be shot 10
death in some flea-infested trench lU,UOo
miles away; that couple of dozen more
will toll for years in poverty and drudg-
cry and that another will become rich
and detested.
Whose fault is it that these things must
happen to these unsuspectng youngsters
Just as they happened to all of us? No
body's in particular It's just that we
have made for ourselves the kind of
world in which such things are inevitable.
And so when we say that we want to
make this a better world to live in one
of the things we mean is that it must be
a world in which it is never tragedy to
grow from boy into man.
