BOYS AND MEN ARE

Washington. d. c.. Nov. 11.-Since

boys begin to form character, in the
opinion of some evangelist experts,
and they hold that a boy should be
converted between that age and 20
The chances are less than half for his
conversion after 20.
Alexander Muscle Argument.
John Alexander, the former leader OF
the Boy Scout movement in America,
denies the theory that boys are delin-
Cueut because they lack viii power.
He says that it is because their mus

Tt has already been proved that the
number Of delinquent boys Is less IN
those cities where there is an organ

is great need of extending these eff

An Ohio church started boys club

a prominent business man. The club
developed several classes for studies

SENATOR LODGE BELONGS TO
ERA WHICH is ALREADY DEAD
GOV. FOsS.
Massachusetts Executive Declares
Statesman's Own Utterances
Have Defeated Him.

BOSTON. Jan. Sin answer to
Senator Lodges speech in symphony
hall Tuesday night, Gov.-elect Eugene
n. Foss last night issued statement,
saying. in part:
Senator Lodges speech OF last
night was an eloquent personal rem
iniscence. 1t told of the past, hut not
word of the present and the future.
II there was any doubt as TO the fact
that the senator was defeated, this
speech has completely dispelled that
illusion. For his own utterances have
defeated him.
HE stands-Pat on the tariff, on
reciprocity with Canada, on the IN
come tax,/on the dinect primary. on
e/efection OF United States senators
BY popular vote, on the recall, on the
initiative, and on the referendum. And
all these issues are what the election
was fought and won on In Massachu-
sets last fall. During the campaign
he evaded all these issues. We now
see that he is opposed to every one
OF them, and IL he had been candi-
date before the people, he would have
been overwhelmingly defeated. He
knows IL, and for the life OF me
do not sec how he can offer himself
as candidate for the senate Cuhder
the circumstances.
He Is discredited man In the
eyes Of the people. and for that reason
could render no effective service In
the senate of the United States, for he
would not represent the sentiment OF
the people.
He does not stand for the new or
der OF things. He does not believe
in the capacity and the right OF the
people to govern themselves. He has
said Enthusiastically that he does not
think the people competent to advise
their public servants. He Is n reic-
tionary. He faces to the rear, and he
belongs to an era which Is already
dead.
Massachusetts demands something
besides oratory. She wants a man in
the senate who, in the fret place,
stands for the will OF the people: who
believes in the people, whose heart
and conscience and efforts are with the
people,
