The old folks will go to Sunday school from a sense of duty while the children will go because they know no better, but the intermediates come only when the school is conducted in a manner attractive to them. Lack of adequate building equipment, uninteresting programs and lack of understanding of the nature of the intermediates are the things that must remedied if the young people are coming to Sunday school. Three out of four boys and two out of thre0 girls drop out of school during the teens, Dr.

Dobbins cited. This also holds good in schools, he said, citing a school where 12,941 students were in the first grade and only 2,453 in the twelfth grade. This loss not only affects the Sunday school and graded school, but also is felt in the home. To combat the migration of children from these three which are fundamentally essential to their growth the tho church, the school Dr. Robbins said they must all work together and unless all three cooperated the work would fail.

G. Robbins, of the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, before the Baptist Sunday School convention, assembled here tonight. It is during this period that the structures are firmly founded and if these structures are placed on the rocks where they will hold, then the young people will not stray far from the right path, he said. The most significant thing about this period of immaturity is its power of growth, which means plasticity and capacity to change, he said. When the boys and girls pass the intermediate age tha foundations have been laid and life begins to settle in molds.

Much of the troubles of the race today can be traced to the misunderstanding and neglect of children during the period from 13 to 19, Dr. Dobbins told the Sunday school workers, in urging them to familiarize themselves with the conditions of their community and the needs of the young folks.
