 He took up the boys work particu- lafly, showing that the association was following well recognized psychologi- cal lines in its plan, utilizing the group | plan of influence, which he illustrated | by the story of Bob" a boy who first came into the Eastern district associa- | tion as a refugee from the police, but | who had developed in successive stages | under rightful influences until he had | become one of the leaders in the boys i Vo-l1 there. particularly in the summer
 camp work and then in Bible study. | MT Hirsch was listened to with clost | anu app eclative attention
