Rev. Hans j. Wolner, rector of St.
Paurs Episcopal church, Virginia, be-
gins a series of lectures at the Guild
hall of the church on Poplar street
Tuesday evening, February 3 on,
'The Boy and Reformation" The
lecture series is divided into six. heads
and will be given on three dates, Tues
day, Wednesday and Thursday, Feb:
ruary 8, 4 and 5. The subjects to be
treated under the general title of
t'The Boy and Reformation" are as
follows: Reformation in General"
''The Boy at the Gate," "Started,"
Holidays and Holy Days." "Inter-
views" ''The Guard"
Rev. Wolner is especially we'll
equipped to treat the subject which he
has chosen as he was for some years
in his student days connected with the
Minnesota State reformatory as a
guard. His lectures will be an inter-
esting treatment of the life, hopes,
aims and ambitions of the inmates
there, the sociological side of the
problem being also thoroughly gone
into. The lectures are from init
mate experiences-covering several
years-of the subjects treated. Also
the subject is one which has always
had strong appeal for Mr.. Wolner
and which he has given much thought
and study. His lectures will be of
interest to every parent in Virginia
and are an amplifcation of series
he has given at other towns before
which were very well received,
Tickets for the series will be SOC,
while an admission of rs cents will be
charged for single lecture. Seats
will shortly be on sale at the Model
Pharmacy and at the store of the
Sodergren Drug company.
