MIDDLE class, LIFE, BELIEF & doubt, SYMPATHY
Abstract

The article focuses on the book "The Middle of the Journey," by Lionel Trilling. the book presents information about the political commitment of intellectuals. The chief protagonist, John Laskell, the liberal, crossing the perilous Dantean decade in which risks, doubts and challenges of a man's life declare themselves and his personality first begins to contract into limitations and decisions to which it is fated. He is a fortunate young man of the middle class who has disciplined his privileges by an earnest if skeptical liberal faith. He has become, after earlier creative leanings, an authority on housing, so justifying in his own mind the social bearings of his political sympathies.

Dreiser, Theodore

COST of living, POVERTY, QUALITY of life, ECONOMICS, HUMAN ecology, LIFE
Abstract

In the article, the author focuses on the cost and standard of living, and plight of the poor in the U.S. All the wonderful things they see or of which they hear are apparently not for them. They have no material, constructive sense. They are not quick at figures, nor are they clever with their hands. They can only think and write, in a way. They see the vast institutions, filled to overflowing, apparently, with the financially interested and capable, but they have not the least idea how to do likewise. They have never earned more than thirty-five dollars a week.

Abstract

This article presents the author's early and childhood experiences. I am twenty-nine years old, and I know that this is the end of a part of my life, the end of youth. Sometimes it seems to me the end of the world's youth too; certainly the Great War has done something to us all. But it is also the beginning of a new phase of life, and the world we live in is so full of swift change and color and meaning that I can hardly keep from imagining the splendid and terrible possibilities of the time to come. A great deal of my boyhood was illness and physical weakness, and I was never really well until my sixteenth year. The beginning of my remembered life was a turmoil of imaginings--formless perceptions of beauty, which broke forth in voluminous verses, sensations of fear, of tenderness of pain.

Abstract

The article examines the recreation profession in a changing society. Today, new technologies have influenced our way of living. According to Greek concept, leisure was for the privileged minority. Technology and urbanization have combined to produce more free time for more people. The increase in leisure has outstripped its former primary functions of restoration and recreation. Man must be educated toward the respectability of leisure, so that free time can be spent without guilt. Sports and other forms of physical activities must find a more respectable role in a changing society.

Abstract

The article provides information on the philosophical definition of leisure. Those who are meeting the exigencies of existence has no time for leisure. The seriously ill, infants and those managing to live on a subsistence level therefore have no leisure time. Their energies are devoted to the task of living, rest and play are only occasions for recuperation and preparation. Leisure is different from recreational time, in that the latter is a period when men are readied for work through relaxation and rest.

13. INTERRELATION BETWEEN CITY AND RURAL LIFE.

Author

Steiner, Jesse Frederick

Subjects
RURAL geography, SOCIAL interaction, CITIES & towns, HUMAN settlements, URBAN sociology, LIFE
Abstract

The interrelationship of city and country is a question of vital concern to the rapidly changing modern civilization, and its full discussion would involve consideration of a wide range of issues and problems. In the paper this question is approached from the point of view of its bearing upon the organization and administration of social work in rural districts on a more comprehensive basis than has hitherto proved practicable. During recent years those interested in the improvement of social conditions have recognized more clearly than ever before the need of extending social work programs into small town and open country communities. Thus far results have been disappointing in this field in spite of a few signal successes. It is impossible to promote any far-reaching plan of social organization without encountering the traditional conflict between a city and country, which has wrecked many schemes of social and political reform. An understanding, therefore, of city-country interrelationships becomes essential for the development of a sound policy upon which may be based more adequate and comprehensive social work programs.

14. ACTIVITY LEVEL AS A CONSTITUTIONAL DETERMINANT OF INFANTILE REACTION TO DEPRIVATION.

Subjects
INFANTS, DEPRIVATION (Psychology), LIFE, RESEARCH
Abstract

Vulnerability to deprivation has often been regarded as a function, of constitutional factors, and in this paper an attempt is made to isolate one of these, namely, activity level, and to show its relation to individual differences in the reactions of infants to a deprivation experience. The hypothesis that inactive infants are more likely to be adversely affected than active infants is investigated in the context of a project in which measures for both activity level and vulnerability to deprivation were obtained. The findings indicate a significant relation in support of the hypothesis, and the suggestion is made that, at this period of life, organismic factors may be of greater consequence in determining outcome than such parameters as age or length of deprivation.

Abstract

The article presents information about Bao Dai, a semi-autonomous member of the French Union. Bao Dai was born in 1916 as prince Vinh Thuy, the first son of Khai Dinh, Emperor of Annam. The court of Annam had been implicated in the unsuccessful uprising of 1916, and Albert Sarraut, France's High Commissioner in Indo-China, thought that a pro-French emperor could be molded by having Thuy educated in France. During the most formative years of his life, from the age of six to sixteen, the young prince received the education of a purely decorative French aristocrat.

Abstract

The article reports on socio-political developments around the world. The honor which has fallen upon the name of scholar of Peru, Antonio Raimondi, exalting him as much as he has distinguished the country in whose service the labors of his life were given, is an example of the just reward of self-sacrificing devotion to a high ideal, notable because the merits of his services were recognized before their fruit had fully matured in the sight of the world and because he had done his work with heroic courage in the face of innumerable difficulties and perils, with no prospect of fortune and uncertain of success and fame. The second volume of Barras's Memoirs is full of details respecting what may be called the domestic life of- the government of the Directory, its gossip makes one think at times of the conversations and stories of the servants in some great house. The police of the Directory were as active in Italy as in France.

Abstract

The article focuses on results of a study, which was published under the title "The College Influence on Student Character," in March 1959 by the American Council of Education. At the end of the survey the author found students to be a "paradox in parenthesis." The author used the word "parenthesis" because, over and over again college students told the research team that, in their opinion, the content and form of higher education are not sufficiently related to the rest of life, nor is education genuinely relevant to their concerns. Because of this, students tend to regard the four years of college as a parenthesis setting off a time in which they can perhaps enjoy themselves for the last time before "real maturation" sets in.

Abstract

The article gives a description of evaluation of different authors, novelists and short-story writers whose interviews had appeared in "The Paris Review." This evaluation reveals an extreme diversity of characters and talents. The authors presented have come from the ruling class, the middle class or the working class of six different countries. Author Frank O'Connor started life as a gunman, and also Joyce Cary, an author, started his life as a colonial official. Furthermore--any writer--is a person who believes in the magic efficacy of words. That belief is central in any writer's personality. Among those who believe in the strict magic of words, fiction writers are a special type, distinct from the essayists and poets.

Abstract

The article presents information on various developments related to various issues. The comparative accord with which the Security Council has accepted the U.S. resolution on Greece is more than welcome, though there should be no pretense that the terms of reference are broad enough to enable the United Nations to reach a solution of the real problem of Greece. Accepting the situation in that country as it is now, without reference to original responsibilities, it is certain that the present government is unrepresentative, tyrannical, and incompetent to lead Greece toward a prosperous and democratic way of life.

Abstract

If Enrico Caruso were alive today he would be seventy-two years old. He died in 1921, at the age of forty-eight, the greatest singer of his own and perhaps of all time. To the people who were fortunate enough to hear him from the stage, he remains, after all these years, a unique recollection; but even for those who know his voice only from recording, it is still a present wonder. In Caruso's case there was, first, the anguish simply of being a singer-of having as one's instrument one's own body, so that added to the not uncommon anxieties for the flesh, there was the uncommon invitation to identify flesh and art.

This article presents information about socio-political developments around the world as of August 26, 1909. The most recent advices from Stockholm indicate pretty plainly the failure and impending collapse of the Swedish strike. Saint Nicholas for September 1909 prints a number of brief essays by boys and girls, written in a prize competition, upon the theme "My Favorite Season--and Why." Their excellence consists in their spontaneity and in their natural, unsophisticated analysis of their delight in the out-of-doors life. The present races of golfers are among the most equable-tempered and well poised of mortals.

Abstract

The article focuses on two books: "Mr. and Mrs. Haddock Abroad" and "The Crazy Fool," by Donald Ogden Stewart. There are men sufficiently acute to recognize the aesthetic principles, which demand that people should laugh at Stewart's latest ventures in humor because "the Haddocks' souls are filled with the tag-ends of modern life and stuffed with the mythology of the daily papers," or even because "Stewart's story is really an excursion into the subconscious of the average 'solid citizen' and his wife." Neither of the books contain the heady stuff of Stewart's earlier books. But at least "The Crazy Fool" is impressionism sufficiently modified to be recognizable both in its achievement and its intent.

The article presents information on a series of articles on various people's and their perspective of the world. The author does not long for a perfect world. It sounds flat.

The roads were, the author believes, made of platinum, or some such high-priced stuff and there was no traffic problem. No corner cop fixed one with a baleful eye as he shamed one before the crowd.
