1、The birth of the imagination and of the passions, the perception of the richness of life, and the consciousness of the possession of the power to master and use that wealth, create a critical moment in the history of youth, —a moment richer in possibilities of all kinds than es at any later period、 Agitation and ferment of soul are inevitable in that wonderful moment、 There are times when agitation is as normal as is self-control at other and less critical times、
