FOREWORD 



OUR point of view is that of Divine Immanence. 

 All real forces are God's forces. Undoubtedly 

 man, and possibly devils, may use these forces in 

 fighting against God. But when we discover how 

 those forces operate in themselves, we know what 

 God has planned. All laws, wherever found, 

 whether biological, psychological, or moral, are 

 God's laws and make known to us the divine 

 method and will. Their origin being identical, 

 they are all equally sacred and obligatory. I have 

 never found myself in the predicament where a 

 psychological law contradicted a revealed law, 

 and hence where I must eliminate one or the 

 other; but I do find aid from the biologic or 

 psychologic law in the interpretation of the re- 

 vealed law. Assuming the divine origin of both, 

 I am bound to find an interpretation of both that 

 harmonizes and not to leave them in apparent 

 contradiction. 



The "Boy Problem" is solved usually before 

 it is attacked. If it remains until it becomes 

 acute, it is never solved. Unless solved in child- 

 hood, it is insoluble except in rare cases. A 

 youth is confessedly difficult to influence and 

 guide. He has come to the period of self -guidance
