Something is the matter with the
the boys and the men. The or
ganized class is very often the miss
ing screw.
"The church must have door big
enough. place bright enough, and
an atmosphere healthy enough to let
in the whole boy. l have real sym
pathy for the boy who frankly tells
nae about he cannot get interested in
the Sunday school. II is n fact, that
the baser part of the world under
stands the boy and the man. It
takes him where he is, as he is,
and bends its energy to the COM
paratively easy task of making him
worse. The better part OF the world,
of which the church is the great
dynamic. should take the boy and the
man in the same way and bend itself
to the Herculean task of making him
better"
OF our total population there are
about sixteen million young men be-
tween the ages of lf and So. OF
our church membership about 20
per cent are young men. Some
time ago careful writer gathered
reports from seventy-eight representa-
tive churches in different parts of our
land. These reports indicated that
thirty-seven per cent of the total
number of young men in the United
States is directly or indirectly con-
nected with the work of the church.
Mr.. Fagenstrom advocated more
class self-perpetrating; pODulariZe

Mr.. Fagerstrom advocated more
courtship among Christian young
men and women. He concluded his
excellent paper by saying: Let us

HEARD THROUGH THE KEYHoLE.


1t occurred to the Free Press man
that if Mankaro was the Key to
Minnesota" there must be a key
hole. He followed out this idea and
caught many valuable points about
the convention.
The most noticeable thing about
the inside work of the convention
is the team work Of the committee.
A number of the workers are vet
Grams of many conventions. Some of
same positions in the Christian En-
deavOr convention last summer, and
the new men have been broken in
in splendid shape. Every man seems
to be responsible for particular
section OF the work. He also has a
regular location or regular beat.
At the same time he is always on
the lookout for chance to help the
man working next to him. AS a con-
sequence, the convention work goes
might be a friction and a burden
We doubt if there was ever cOnven-
ton which had n better team than
Mr.. OsgoOd has been able TO put in
! the field.
Another noticeable thing is the al
most military discipline. An anus
ing illustration of this occurred last
night at the door OF the PreSbyte-
rian church. II want to get in," said
q short, handsome, somewhat pOrtly
gentleman. But you can't" said the
dOOrkeeper. ''the Presbyterian church

flow of meeting at the Baptist"
But ] am one of the officers Of the
convention" said the gentleman.

dent Martin, and I've got TO preside
at this session" "AIl right then, |
suppose I've got to let you in. but
it's against the rules"
The committee must have made
a special contract with the weather
bureau. What is so rare as this
kind of day in March, and the
convention committee has had q
week of them
where shall wisdom be found?"
If Solomon had been at the cOnven-
tion he would not have said that. He
would have gone to the information
