Rev. Lester Mallory
Holds Special Service
For Young Organiz-
ation at Church

“GUIDE POSTS”

Declares “Wild Oats”
Never Made for
Good Life —— Urges
Boys to Be “Clean”

The special DeMolay service giv-
sIen at the South Norwaik Baptist
church last evening was attended By
no persons. P ferns and flow-
era ace-retes- saints. mm. the
‘nltar was arranged in front of the
I pulpit by the Deuoiay members. as
in their lodge roe s.

The text of Rev. Lester Mallory's
sermon was taken fromthe 119th
,l’sulm. the ninth verse: ~“Whers-
withal shall a young man cleanse
his way."

The development of the subject
"Guide Post: that Indicate a Clean
Path." was unique in that the
speaker used familiar signs found
along our highway. as symbols of
- thosu principles which make a.
worth-while life.

Rev. Mallory said
things:

"’1 he Ettempt to brirg young men
of every class together in an order
like this. under the shadow of such
Virtues as patriotism. fidelity, com-
radship, courtesq. cleanness. love of
parents and ltevurence for God and
sacred things is very laudable.

“Parents may take a leaf out of
this open book of youthful idealism
presented in this order. and learn
that youth is not averse to the bet-
ter things. Youth is not rebellious
against restraint. but it must be the
restraint of love and leadership and
not that of force. Youth with its.
idealism. human clay yet to be fas-
hioned. and harnessed. is the hope
of the world.

"I feel like the Great Master and
teacher. who, when confronted wun
the young man asking what good
