It Seems to Heywood Broun

If the younger generation is in almost every respect an improvement over the generations which have gone before there must be a reason. Some have pointed out that children of today are less harassed by parental discipline and that Sunday school attendance has fallen off considerably. And yet the author thinks that people must look to other sources for the increase in courage and gallantry of spirit among the boys and girls of their own day. The author is inclined to give the credit to the newspaper comic strips.
