It was large-scale business, complex and with many public contacts, that has first felt these forces, and therefore has sought systematically to enlist broadly trained men. The smaller concerns are now falling into line. Business leaders began looking for young men who could use their minds, who could analyze problems and take a fresh point of view. They found that college graduates were likely to have the qualities they sought, activity of intellect, breadth of interests, and some familiarity with scientific method...

When the play begins they are visiting friends of the young man, a newly-married couple in Chicago. Here they find their relation to each other rapidly and fatally changing. To the quiet, religious young girl Chicago is a brutal nightmare; to the coarser-grained young man it is gloriously American, "the voice of the great old century we live in." To her his friends, their host and hostess, are vulgar and almost...
