That is the- term applied to the young people' of this country by the Reverend Frank K. tiaebelein in an address to the Ea.-lern Conference of Ine Methodist i'rotcs-. tant Church at Atlantic City, X, J., Sunday last. The Reverend i.Headma'stei of the Stony lliouk School for Hoys, Stony Ifrook. i . i., N. V. lie'makes a most amazing statement in reference to .the I' j ...f , .. churches. Thiit^'-six: n illions o I forty-nine millions of young people never set foot" inside a church. Such can hardly be. believed when one keepTs in mind that this, country boasts so strongly 'of .its Chris tianity and sends "so many millions of dollars to "heathen" lands to convert the "hoatht h," If the Keverend has even typproximnted the true state of facts, Americans have been neglecting its own house noifi igr that, oi its neighbor-' Which isn't at all good sense. Dr. Gaebelein gives some pthor * ft g 11 r e s ,ei| u a 11 y as uncomplimenwt'y, revealed, he says. from a questiohnairy, to wit: Of an.OtiO youngsters attending certain schools in New York, more than l'5,()Oo never heard of the- Ten Commandni* rits. Of more than 18,000 students in Virginia, 10,000 were unable to name 1 Biblical prophets, 12.0U0 could not name i the 1 Gospels and lO.OftO three of Christ's disciples. Evidently the ; young people of today are being | seriously neglected. No -wonder , the'Courts are clogged with young , |)eople charged with all kinds of | crimes. Parents, ministers a n 'tl , Sunday school teachers will have to give more afid better attention j to the training, jof the youngsters. ] Public school teachers can't do it , -A . l< t , . 1 B r ' -HMf "? * 1 no issue/ governor.
