A fragmentary profile discusses Dr Byron Forbush and his influence on boys, comparing his methods to Pied Piper rhetoric and Orphean allure. It notes his power to shape behavior, the risks to youths, and references his book The Boy Problem, with remarks on his leadership style and early life.
Mary Bronson Hartt portrays the Rev. Doctor Forbush, a dynamic Charlestown pastor who bond with boys by living among them. He learns from their slang and pranks, rejects ladylike repression, and uses energetic street missions like a 1902 night out with the gang to test religion in real life. He balances discipline with genuine boyish faith and leads large boyhood classes that embrace wriggling and honest laughter.
