YOUTH AND THE WORLD
CALL n FOR LEADERSHIP An address was given by the Rev. M. G. Sullivan, president of the University College Students' Association, at tho monthly luncheon of the Auckland branch of tho League of Nations Union, held in Milne and Choyee's Reception Hall yesterday. The president, Mr. W. T. G. Aire.v, presided. The world was calling to youth, said tho speaker, but youth could not respond because it lacked opportunity. Even when the floors of employment were closed, a channel should be provided for youth's free-running enthusiasm. ft was eager to espouse any cause that would lead to iinprnvompnt and it could not be blamed if it sought desperate remedies when guidance and opportunity were denied in the right direction. The world desperately needed leaders to-day. The risen generation was a spent force, and it rested with youth to provide those leaders. Ft was handicapped by the loss of its elder brethren in the war, and striplings were called upon to do a man's work. That was youth's great task and its golden opportunity.
