ciously.
Conversion as Preparation for
"Teen-age' Perils
Because statistics seem TO show
that the years from fifteen TO seven
teen have been years when more
persons have been converted than
at any other period Of life-more
have also been perverted in that
period-some have inferred that we
should not urge the great decision
Of life till then. But the statistics
only show that the churches have
neglected religious work in child
hood. Manifesly we need TO fortify
boys and girls before perilous strain
of adolescence comes upon them
That was Gods plan long before the
peculiarities of adolescence were
discovered by parents and teachers.
IL is very significant that Jesus,
like other Hebrew boys, joined the
church at twelve. But in those
days they were not twenty-one till
they were thirty; and as thirty is
to twenty -one, twelve is to eight.
Eight is recognized in the courts as
the age Of responsibility.
Sunday School Seven Days in the
Week for Boys
But the conversion of boys and
girls is by no means the end Of
religious work for them. The
young lady who asked the superin-
tendent for a new Sunday School
class on the ground that the boys
in the class she taught had all join
ed the church and she had nothing
more TO do for them had a
very dim conception alike OF
boys and of religion. CONVEX
sion, in school parlance, is only
commencement" IL is but the
door TO real living. And in the
case Of a boy especially there is
need OF something more than relig-
ious exhortion one hour in the
week. Even 10 get enough Bible
study to prepare the boy TO meet

should have besides the best possible
Sunday School teaching, the habit
of church attendance, a mid-week
training class in Christian life, daily
family worship, and daily Bible
reading in public school, the five
fingers of the hand that moulded
the fathers of this Republic. The
Sunday School is but the little fin
ger of that full hand; and the Sun
day School alone, however perfect
ed, can never do the work OF the
whole hand. All churches should
have an all week plan of Religious
Life for their young people, and
most of all for their boys. This is
being provided for, in part, by the
organized boys class, with its week
day activities, social, athletic, and

aim to "destroy"-not TO regulate
or mitigate-the bar room, the
gambling devices, the houses Of i'll
fame, and any political machine"
that is allied TO them.
For a church to petition such a
legislation is 10 get into apostolic
succession to prophets and apostles
who reasoned" with kings OF
righteousness, temperance and a
Judgment TO come" In many
churches even the mems Bible class,
with Bible study and community
service" as its double aim, fails to
take up the manly side Of social
service, contenting itself with wo-
manly charities. The supreme re-
form is to enlist the churches in
reform, especially the men for the
sake Of the boys. In savage tribes
work is mostly put on the women,
but the men at least do the fighting.
In many towns the Christian men
leave IL to the women TO do both
the work and the fighting. Men
must be summoned as fathers and
big brothers" to fight the devils to
save the boys.
Behold in the city street the
spirited white stallion of passion
driven by youth who can scarcely
hold him with the reins twisted
about his strong hands. Manifest
ly il would be dangerous to touch
the throbbing steed with a whip.
But out of news room jumps a man
with a story magazine twisted up
like a rope, and strikes the stallion
a strong blow across the eyes. He
rears madly, and the youth can
scarcely calm him. The danger Of
a runaway is not fully passed when
q tobacconist leaps out with a rope
of tobacco and hits this white steed
of passion in the mouth, and again
he plunges and almost breaks from
control. Then three leaps before
him from a theater dancing girl
singing a lewd song, with which
she strikes him cutting blow
across the flank. and he takes the
bits in his teeth and runs away,
dashing himself and his rider to
death through the red windows at
the bottom OF the street.
Which things are an allegory Of
application to the social
duty Of morol street cleaning.
Fathers and big brothers, give the
boys a chance by smashing the traps
set for their feet by the devil and
devilish men all along your streets.

HOOVER SENDS APPEAL TO 100000
PASTORS
Waste Means Loss of the War

Herbert C. Hoover, National Food
Director, mailed today a letter &c
100000 pastors of individual
churches, Catholic, Protestant, and
Jewish, calling upon them to coop
crate with him and with the Depart
men of Agriculture in urging The
largest possible production Of food
and the smallest possible amount OF
waste.
"As a minister Of Cod writes Mr.
Hoover, IA leader of the people and
a lover of liberty and Of your fellow
men, your cooperation is earnestly
desired and greatly needed. In such
a time as this the people naturally
turn TO the church. IL will be q
calamity TO the nation and to the
churches if their chosen ministers
neglect to exercise their proper
leadership in the great cause OF
feeding a world in need. For the
world is in want of food.
ITO meet the needs of the war and
of the world, we must produce gen.
erously, give freely TO our allies.
ourselves eat as much, but no more
than we need, and especially save
the waste. Lasting disgrace will
fall upon us if lack OF self-restraint
should prevent us from taking our
proper part in this great conflict
against the doctrine of might ma'es
right"
Mr.. Hoover estimates the annual
waste of food at one billion dollars.
He urges a larger use Of corn and
corn bread in the family ration.
The women Of America says Mr..
Hoover, have never failed to ans
wer such a call as comes to them
now. The saving of food is within
their sphere, and without food con-
servation we cannot win the war"
All pastors are urged TO preach
upon Conservation of Food, Sunday,
July 4, which is designated as Food
Saving Day, and TO secure the Co
operation of religious and civic
bodies in a campaign for Food Saw
ing.
Mr.. Hoover's 100000 letters are
sent to pastors through the agency
of the Federal Council Of the
Churches Of Christ in America, &C
companied by brief supplementary
appeal by DR.. Frank Mason North,
president OF the Council.
