Tens of thousands of young men and young women, made fit by education, are being introduced by universities and colleges such as Harvard, Columbia, Pennsylvania, Princeton, Yale, Bryn Mawr, Ogontz School, Wellesley, with assured preparedness for service. These young livej&ill feed the world with new life by high enthusiasms and generous ardor which will overbalance their inexperience. It is not easy for the old leaders in banking, railroading or commerce to take on new ideas. "Those who offer suggestions quickly discover that it is much the same as ringing the bell of a house whose people have moved away. But the only thing in this new country of ours that we should be ready to stereotype is Our Glorious Star-Spangled Banner Speaking for ourselves, we welcome the valuable contributions of our colleges to roomy hearts and to wide doors of opportunity, to help us to shape new problems and nfeet new situations.
