Excerpt from Applied Ideals in Work With Boys Men fear even while they honor science. They are slow to act upon deductions from the mass Of common knowledge. They warn their wise men away from direction in practical affairs as they do their preachers from politics. There is an instinctive no tion that a too accurately ordered view Of life tends to dehumanize it. Now, whether or not there be justice in this view, as it applies to the rest Of the world, it never can hold true for boys. A dehumanized boy is inconceivable. On the other hand, there is good hope that the boy will humanize science, whose chief use in this field is, after all, to bring the man up to the point where he can see what the boy looks like. Upon that view he may safely act. In this volume knowledge and action are never di vorced and the solvent Of both is love. The annual Institute Of Workers with Boys, gathered in Pennsylvania at the call Of the State Young Men's Christian Association, expressed through its speakers so clear and unified a gospel that the complete report Of the convention required little editing. In deed, this conference merited the rare dis tinction Of being called not SO much a con vention' as a conspiracy to create enduring literature.
