...warn the Christian population under my leadership against the influences of the Protestant controlled and heretical Young Men's Christian Association on Catholic youths. I base my warning on the Pope's decree dated Nov. 5, 1920. The Y. M. C. A. is neither Polish nor Catholic. It is supported by Protestants and heretics and anyone who gives a cent to this institution is harming the Church and Polish youth. We can not give our Catholic youth to this American heresy, born and bred of Protestant propaganda, which is now being spread over the whole world...
...baiting the literary public almost as successfully as does Bernard Shaw. Indeed the new messiah once employed the alias "Shaw," and there were those who hoped and whispered that he had been born beneath a Shavian rose.

Few will be able to read this series of talks and still remain under the impression that the spiritual has no place in the life of youth. It is possibly emphasized less than at certain previous periods but its presence is still very real...
...first speech, "Religion for Modern Youth" is by Charles William Eliot '53, and it is followed by "Religion and the Mind," written by Professor J. B. Pratt '99. Among other articles which would prove especially interesting to Harvard men are: "Personal Religion," by Bishop William Lawrence '71, "The Bible, Its Nature and Its Use," by Assistant Professor H. J., Cadbury '10, "Ethics and Religion," by Professor G. H. Palmer '64, "What is the Good of Philosophy?", Professor R. B. Perry, G. '97, "Religion and Health," by Professor R. C. Cabot, "Religion in Education," by Dean H. W. Holmes '03, "Religion...
