DOSS, Illinois Jurist* Husband (dejectedly): "I say, if It takes a lot of modest optimism to be a reformer and expect to make people as good as you are.--Vancouver Sun. 'TITLE "Methodism" haa had a vital influence on American lit'o for more than a century, it might be better to consider whether the church has exercised real genius in solving the more pertinent problems before it now. The painful fact is that in scarcely any church that I have observed within the last year or two do I see a great percentage of attendance of younger people. Unless the older membership in attendance at these church services be replaced or increased, it is a mere matter of time until it can be mathematically seen that death will eat away the major portion of/the present church attendance. i . I am not criticizing the young people if they should not be drawn to such an emotional way of gaining a spiritual lesson, but the point is: .Would young people attend in any considerable numbers any strictly church service now? ' v It may be that because of the advent of the auto, radio, moving pic tures, etc., the young people have acquired unconsciously to themselves or us & sort of standard of religion and morals to which old or former ways of religious observance will give way. Frankly it must be admitted that this is a kind of competition or resistance to the form of success which our church must meet. It would be useless for us to deny that there is competition, and we must demonstrate that our plan, our product, is superior and better if we are to have it survive. I have complete confidence that our younger folks will ultimately very largely adopt the plan which proves to most efficiently develop the best Christian men and women. . ~ ^ Sailor: They say the flapper is pass* Tng and that soon she will be no more.'

The second hypothetical objective would be the organization and direction of the emotional life of youth until the organized emotional complexes, or sets, would tend to operate in behalf of altruism, nobility and righteousness, rather than in the interests of the opposing forces. If the first course in chemistry were a course that told the history of the science of chemistry, showing how it started in mysticism and how slowly and at what a cost the intelligence of man gradually supplanted the forces of mysticism a^id ignorance, they would come out of that course at the end impressed with the fundamental significance that the science of chemistry had been a triumph of intelligence over the forces of darkness. They would find the same thing true in geology, in physics, in social science and in religion. Laxity of Parental Ruling Threatening Youth's Sense of Morality and Propriety - By REV. J. D. MATTH1US, IndianapolU (Lutheran)V, ' A*' MM _ I ^ ^ We look with apprehension and with no small degree of alarm an the future of the present-day generation when we consider how little is done for the proper rearing of the young. The growing sentiment of the present day is to permit children to have their own way and not to punish them for wrongdoing, and a crime wave is sweeping the country which threatens to submerge and inundate all sense of morality and propriety. Many of the most pronounced criminals are young people. Many of the young folk, known as criminals, have had a good education, but they lack religion. The minds of so many parents are set only on giving the child a good schooling. They are content with having the child advance in its studies and of having its name on the honor roll and they urge the child to accomplish great learning, but the way to heaven is not thought and spoken of. Only the mind of the child is developed while the soul is permitted to die and waste. In rearing children it is most important that both parents and children recognize the divine authority to govern children, given to the parents. It is the parents' sacred duty to govern and the children's sacred duty to be governed. Parental Problems increase in Proportion WitK the Progress of the World W ^ r By DR. ADA HART ARUTT, University of Cincinnati. Progress of civilization has demanded radical changes in the relation of parent to child comparable to the changes in industry or farming. Under a simple civilization child care correspondingly was simple, but modern* progress has presented a new problem for the parent. Under the conditions of our complex living the radio, the newspaper, the telephone, the automobile place us in. .contact with far-distant parts of our country and even with remote parts tof the globe. Children come in contact with a constant flood of . new ideas and influences. Under these new conditions older methods often break down or need modification. Modern parents are eager toj the new knowledge of children and scientific methods in child care and the parents' problems are those which deal with health and normal growth, discipline and education. Idea of Everlasting Punishment Has No Part in the Faith of Judaism By RABBI STEPHEN S. WISE, New York. v /ttdaism considers death as not the end of life, but merely an incident in a fuller life. It urges the unquestioning acceptance of death as the will of God, and none of the Jewish prophets has enlarged upon the topic by telling anything of a future life. Judaism does not believe in hell or everlasting punishment Life is not to be as if good deeds are to be rewarded and bad deeds punished. Judaism is not a religion of fear. It says nothing of a hell after life, but teaches that a hell in life should be avoided. Judaism does not subscribe to a system of rewards and punishments. There is none of the terror and horror in Judaism that is found in religions which hold out the specter of everlasting damnation for the naughty.
