Itcstlcssucss causes most abnor mal manifestation. And restless ness springs from Idleness. Idle ness ronios from lack of Interest, lack of purpose, lack of something hard for Ihe Individual life to bite, on. The. jazz general hii is a genora tfon. Is It not. that has outgrown its luirents? Thn nlrlor generation has retired this one to life of great er ease than its own, of hotter physical strMigth, of hetter school ing, iwlth m eonseiiucntly keener edgo to tile Intellect without the corresponding need to use It In rnrvlng out a living. "Tlie m ne t ion of n knife Is to rut," says an old proverh. "Whether It rut bread or cut to slay ilepeiulH upon thn mn tlvo of tho user." Thn function of young hndles Is to exercise, to perform hard feats. The function of young minds. Is to Inquire Into lire, to exiKTlment. to rronto, to Invent, to go to school. They sop up knowledge an a sponge sops water. To old knowledge they ndd youthful vigor and ' thev make tho world ever new. I Hilnession is no good. Letting the knife, rust Is poor business, (live youth something hard e igh to do to utilize Its physical powers, something- Interesting enough to nlwnrb Its mind. Tho present Jazzy bunch must now work out Us own tsalvatlon. Hut for Ihe'huuch Just behind them cannot Interesting occupations be found.' A "tough gang" has been known, when organized, to rlom up a whole neighbor) d. The cm' is hern. Shall thn knife slay? Or shall It cut bread? Or cut n new path through the wilderness? The Great Gulf There Is, perhaps, no keener nor kindlier observer of men and events than, sir Philip filblis. His Is no opinion of America formed by week or two In a New York hotel Hi' lias been much in Ihe country, anil was much with Americans abroad. He tin, Is Unit "beneath the surface of American cheerfulness and self-caofideace there are tnan minds seriously disturbed by their analysis of political land social life In tlie I'nited Slat, s." To his mind, he says: "Tlie chief drawback to tlie power of leadership n,,. Cnt,., ,sia,,.s Is the great naif which seems to exist between the semne mid the liberal thought of the nation. Tlie war. it seems, and , ,o changed con ditions of Hi,, world, hae loll the psychology or the senate untouched It is still thinking, 1 ni t,i, terms of old watchwords Hint havi no rcaih response In the minds of intelligent people who sec the neces sity of racing tlie realities of the after-war world ami 'adapting Amer ican traditions of isolation and sell dependence to the new needs of co operation in world reconst ruction " Sir Philip Instances the m-aticr of tlie Cenoa t-onf, tence Individual Americans he met. from New York to San Krunrisco. all believed Anici lea should ban' participated in It.
