Foreign Bom Youth Feels Inferiority’ BY MARTHA LEE A serious problem confronts us today. A boy of foreign parentage | has been educated out of his class | (so he thinks) and into no other, j He has been taught standards of living above his own people, he says, and has nothing to take their place. Our customs, our modes of living are different from those of other countries. A southern European feels just as strange in the United States as we feel in his native land. Our food is as hard to become accustomed to as their dishes are for us. Os course, through our educational system, the children come in contact with these differences more quickly than do the parents. They see how their American classmates do things. And children are unhappy when they are “different.” They must imitate, to the letter, those with whom they come in contact. And of course, the farther they progress in school, the more they see the necessity of doing and dressing, talking and being like their fellow students: Here is a young man who feels completely out of things; DeaT Miss Lee—l am a son of parents of foreign birth and I was born In the old country, but was brought to America when a baby. I am one of thirteen children. My father is a laborer and W'e are poor, according to the standards of people here. My mother works hard and has no time to learn English, except what we children can teach her. Our home Is small and of course crowded, with such a big family. My father comes home at night, lakes Ills shoes off, and props them up on the stove. The house is always hung with washing, during cold weather, and It is almost impossible to study because of the noise and copfusion of the younger children. I am In my last year of high school, 18-years-old. I am grateful for my education. because I know it has cost my parents a number of sacrifices to give it to me.

I am quite bright in school, nice looking, in a foreign way, and something of an athlete, which has brought me before the students. But X do not know whether I am glad for all this or not. I am discontented with my home life. I hate the crowded conditions, poverty, the oldfashioned ideas. As soon as I am through school, I must go to work. Labor pays the most money, to a beginner, so I supEose X must be a laborer. These pretty. right, well-dsessed gisls I see in school are not for me. I am foreign and poor. But I am discontented with girls of my own class. Figure that one out. Miss Lee. EIGHTEEN. You’re all wrong, Eighteen. In the first place your parents are progressing in the new country or they would not have seen the necessity of you attending school after you had reached the age when the state no longqr requires you to attend. You are intelligent. Exceptionally so, from your letter. You have no reason to feel inferiority wlien you are with your classmates. Your clothes may make a difference now, because I do know children are apt. to be snobbish, but when you get out In the world it will be your good mind that counts. Your parents have gotten along without any help from you so far. Why not try your hand at something you want to do first, and see how you can get along. You could, help them some, financially, and at the same time try your hand at what you want to do. Your knowledge for foreign language ought to make you valuable to some company which has a foreign market. Better forget about the girls for a while. You have a big program mapped out for yourself.
