1916-1941 : TRADITION AND CREATION THE EDITOR The times are assaulting Time. Even we, whose memories and traditions bind us so powerfully to the Past, must also feel the sickening indecision of the rockingstone. The Past has misled so many countries—especially the Past sentimentalised and exploited and smugly accepted as the unalterable Law—that the world must contain many men to-day who are quite ready to say to all tradition : ' Good-bye to all that/ And they would probably be ready to say it even while they know what a vain-glorious gesture it would be to try to jump off their own shadows. Here, we know better than most how much a man's emotional blood-stream is made up of memories : we know even better how easily a man deceives himself into thinking that he is 'just himself/ a modern, a man of 1941 : and how quickly he is undeceived. The sight of some old cabin on the jaw of a mountain, its thatch sagging, its lime peeled from the mud wall—and we feel a surge like to a vomit of ancient loves and hates from centuries that, five minutes before, we thought a bedtime story. And yet, even here, with all our piety, with all our reverence, with all our memories, can there be any man who becomes aware of the tyranny of tradition who does not constantly revolt against it in defence of his own individuality ? It is unmanning to live in indecision ; it is just as unmanning to feel a mere speck of emotion in a sludge of national evolution. As time goes on, and our traditions retire into history, that revolt is certain to occur more and more frequently.
