Prac tically all the del-Ka'es have arr,,d. nd eem to be enloyu.g the hosplta fcle reception given to them hy thf local association ar.d the cordiality hown them by the people of the city In general. The noticeable feature f tba convention lthe h'arty spirit " anwui hy tbe .dele-ss (n the itwcrt Iod and In the attendance upon the eealona of the conrentln. Th dele gates hav attended the meetinrs of the convention remarkably well, con Iderlnr the other attractions tn the city. The aong- service has added no mall part In the spirit of the con vention. Rome time V devoted to alnflnf and prayer before each aes stfon. Th (first speaker of -the mornlrrr avas Mr. Edwin Kettle, of Wilmington. fir. Kettle's subject was "Bible Serv :." Taking .the atory of Caleb and aha a ia general tliene, the speak , mt' mentiooed several leaaona to be amad from the live of th two t-plea that war sent to Inspect the Hand ef Caneian.

' ' niiHaia1i.iH e a.t,,',rT ? letegate to Uc Inierwaie Conventiou of the Young- Men' OarlsUaa Aaewcta tlou Grouped In Frout of the Liocavl difficulty in coming "was the fact that o.f. account of railroad schedules some of the North Carolina reopl' might have to stay in (JreenNlHe. a few hours " This, he said, Ui)p should be willing to sacrifu e for the sake of And'rsjn. However. other towns were to be heard from, and no action was taken. COVTRIBCTIONS AND PLEDGES. The neit thins on the programme was related to the "State Supervision Work." Mr. William Knowles Coop er, of New York, wa asked to take pledges of the associations and In dividual contributors. Mr. Cooper, by his jovial manner and witticisms, kept up the spirit of the convention. A little over 300 was raised by per sonal contributions, and a little less than 00 waa pledged by the differ- Building. AV hardly realize that more than a third of our members In North Ameri ca are boys. This ts troe In all de partments. The boy's vork of tha U. c. A. ts no small thing." In the language of Theodor Roose velt, "If you are going to do any thing permanent, you must begin with the boy." The problemr of the laboring men will never be solved un til the problems of the boys are set tled. You can make anything you want to out of a boy. Applying the work for boys to the Youns. Men's Christian Association, the speaker said a united campaign Is necessary. How shall we have this united campaign? First, what ts best for the boys Is best for the as sociation. Jesus Christ said th boy la greater than the Sabbath. The svd dress of sir. Robinson was of the Toung Men's Christian Asso ciation; second, in. the Interest of the city council; third. In the Interest of the chamber of commerce, and fourth, in the interest of the Ander son people in general." He mention ed the fact that Anderson has a new association and that the work there would be greatly enhanced by the presence of a largo body of youg men. The next bid for the convention was that made by Oreensboro. A committee, consisting of Messrs. J. W. Humphry. T. W. .Alderman. Arthur Coffin, and Rev. C- W. Wlndhold, pre sented th claims Of the Gate City. This committee presented a petition signed by 400 citizens, and 110 mem bers of th Oreensboro chamber of commerce. Mr. 3. Wl Murphy, Its chairman, nxado strong appeal for his town as the nel meeting place. The next Invitation to the conven tion was that from (Jreen vllle, J. C. A letter was read from the chamber of commerce of that city, urginir the convention to ncl-"-t (ircenvllle for the next meHtinp place. As th work of selecting a meeting place fur th.' . (invention Is left entirely in the hands of the business 'ommiltee, no iictlon was taken on the resolutions presented by the different cities. DK. Fl.SHKK LAST NIGHT. The feature of last night with the convention was the address hy Dr. .George .1. Flshfr. of New1 York, on Phvsical Ktflclenev Necessary In the Making of Better Men." Without the slightest attempt al oratorical or dra iMtli. effevt. but speaking with di rectness and earnestness. Iir, 1'isher addressed an audience of men and ! women which taxed the capacity of i Minna Hall. That, of course, Isn t 'saying so very nm h for the pi.e of the crowd, but it was an Intelligent. 'Interested audience, as shown by the I attention it paid the speaker and the questions fired at him at the close of h's remarks. ! Many people are not good, the speaker declared, simply because they have not the physical basis for living lives of self-control. All morality must have a basis which makes poise possible. Adenoid growths are re sponsible for the truancy and vices of many children rated as Incorrigible and they themselves are In no way to blame. "I really believe that there Is such a thing as being saved psychol ogically and yet not physiologically." aid the speaker. There are many Christians who are often Irritable and cross. In our desire for education we have minimized the physical In over emDhaslzIng the mental. We should j exorcise In order to secure organic 'vigor. To get this It Is necessary to ! exercise the large muscles of the chest, the abdomen, the back, etc. The speaker criticised the system of the schools which requires a child to sit still for four or five hours a day, se vere punishment, and at the same time to deal with psychic matters. He quoted the distressingly large percent age of pupils who are physlcslly de fective. Investigations In New York city the other day showed TO per cent, of this class Fifty per cent, had enlarged tonsils and adenoid vegetation. For this reason they were being retarded In their studies. "I venture to say thst BO per cent, of the children of Charlotte are physically defective." declared the speaker. "I can guarantee you that SO per cent, are." Although mankind Is conquer ing th communicative methods of sanitation, yet there Is a number of other complaints, diseases of the lurgs. the kidneys and -the liver, which are steadily on the Increase. One-hlrd of the young men who died In a recent vear between the ares of !0 and !S rlfd from tubercu losis and there's hardly any extruse for anybody dying from that now aday. SPORTS VALUABLE. Dr. Fisher emphasized tha Talus of sports. In the cnanly, lively games th young mu experiences psychic rem iniscences, sensations which sr al-, most lost to th race, but which should bo retained. In th hand-to-hand grapple thera comes U old time thrill of combat when prehistoric ancestor goufht for aelf-sresrrauon. Games give the ! is unconscious i physical dep.i rt a I health. The Y . iet of exercise and It The purpose of the cut Is to develop M C. A. has not a I system of Its ow n but It has a pnllos ophy of its own. It has never been 'afflicted with faddlsms or crank r.o itlons, but Is abreast of and In accord w ith the best knowledge of physiology of to-day. Fravtical suggestions were given In response to ipiestions. No person should be allowed to exercise or take exercise without an examination, since It Is very dangerous for a per son of weak heart or other organic trouble to take a cold plunge or exer cise immoderately. Following is the programme for to day: MORX1NG. 9:45 Fellowship meeting. Boys' meeting (over 15). Speaker, Dr. George j Fisher, of New York.
