YOUTH \ REVELS
IN PAGAN|SN,
IS CHARGE

MONTCLAIR, n. j., Oct. 2S,
Young people of the present have
little chance to rise above the
paganism displayed by adults everv-
where from billboards to- the family
circle. Rev. Harry Thomas Stock,
of Boston, Mass. declared.
DR.. Stock addressed a regional
meeting of the women from the
Congregational churches Of Pennsyl-
Vania, New York, New jersey, Nir-
ginia, Delaware, Maryland and the
District of Columbia. He is secre.
tary of the students and young
peoples departments Of the National
Congregational Education Societf.
Live for Pleasure
Youth has difficulty In rising
above the idea of international
responsibility held by the D. A. r,
the American Legion and church
conventions, he said. An Ameri-
canism worse than the old Prussian-
ism is being taught today, he
asserted, and the church has failed
in leadership.
Family conversation" DR.. Stock
said, lis too largely in terms of
financial success and pleasure. Bill
boards and magazine advertising
tempt to all sorts of excesses and
give youth the impression that it is
all right to let down all the bars.
Movies and the theater too often
appeal to the lowest impulses of
humanity and constitute one Of the
most degrading influences of our
time. Newspaper stories and edi-
torials laugh at law, romanticize the
criminal and preach an American
ism which is more vicious than the
old Prussianism because at the same
time we pose as the exemplars of
national purity and idealism.
Future Dark
What chance have the ideals of
the gospel in the face of the pagan
ism which strikes our youth from
all sides, all day? Most of our
churches need intensive local mis-
sionary work on a seVen-day .a-week
basis.
The whole future of organized
Christianity depends upon an eff
fective Christian education Of our
youth. And most Of our chuches
are not doing that task with any
great degree of success. With the
best equipment and the wisest lead
ership, it is hard enough to COM
pete with the materialism and lib
eralism of the day"
