Although he did not wish to de- preciate the work done by service clubs, `he believed` it far more im- portant to have the boy tied up with the Sunday School and churc1'r, some- . thing which will function year in and year outand which he cannot out- grow. ` - "'- g ' Only within the last twenty years, said the speaker,. had the men ap- proached the problem of reaching the boys and developing them on fourfold lines. from a scientic standpoint. In the old days the style of church teach- ing was partly to blame for the fail- ure. They studied the Good _Book but they failed to study the boy. The _ atmosphere of theological V colleges often led the students away from` the children, directing their efforts. to- wards adults, but now all churches are impressing upon the students the importance of 'work among_ the \ young. .
