It is here that a new building cost ing about $45,000 is to be erected. To this amount must be added the furnishings, which will bring the whole cost to $55,000- About $30,000 has been pledged, but only $16,111.35 has been paid; two more payments, however, are to be made in 1910. It is necessary to have at least $25, 000 more than has been pledged in order to complete the building. To ward this amount a gift of $500 came unsought a few days ago, and it is believed that others are ready to as sist in giving to the young women of Charlotte this much-needed building. The board of directors Intend to be gin the building in the spring of 1910. No one wishes to build only a part of the building now, for each part needs the other to make it complete. An urgent plea is therefore made for further gifts at this. time. Many people have the mistaken idea that the Young Women's" Chris tian Association is simply a boarding home for ,young women away from home. This is an important depart ment and ample provision is being made for this phase of the work, but the all-round work of the association is broader than that. Its object is the advancement of the physical, so cial, intellectual and spiritual welfare of all young women.

NEW ORLEANS Wlft ENTERTAIN SHRINERS Elaborate Preparations Beinge Mad for Biff Event in April "Glad-U-Kura" the Slogan. NEW ORLTANS, La., Jan 8. To furnish an idea to the character ot. entertainment that will be afforded the representatives to the Imperial Council, Mystic hrin, at the April convention and all Siiriners who come to New Orleans for the monster gathering, the committee of Jerusalem Temple, which has charge of the ar rangements, calls attention to the fact that $20,000 alone will be ex pended in decorative features. This does not include the many different -formg of illumination, the plans for which are .now being drawn. The latter will cost more than the decora tions, so it can be seen at a glance that Jerusalem Temple members are not overlooking anything to make the stay of the visitors to New Orleans from every part of North America the most pleasant they have yet ex perienced. The programme of entertainment proper will embrace features distinc tive of New Orleans. This form of entertainment, will, no doubt, appeal o the visitors as it will be different from anything they have as yet par ticipated in. During their visit, the Shriners will have ample opportunity of "rides on the Mississippi rivei when they will be in a position to get a magnificent view of the great harbor. Every hotel and business house here has been placarded with the words "Glad-U-Kum" printed in strangers April 1 1, 12. 13 and 14. Letters from the captains ; of he different 'patrons over in North Am erica . indicate that the men in Arab costume , are paying strict attention to drills, their purpose being to cap ture the prizes offered by the execu tive . committee, in the exhibition drills. This gives, rise to -the belief that the various patrols will be large ly represented and will take part in the magnificent street parade. x : COLLIE A 'SUICIDE?

"Glad-U-Kum" will be the greeting extended to all Shrin ers in April, not. only by -Jerusalem Temple members, but by everybody in New Orleans. Men, women and child ren are already becoming familiar with the slogan for 1910 and by the time the convention date arrives, nothing but "Glad-U-Kum" will be heard on the streets of the Crescent City. This slogan was adopted by Jeru salem Temple shortly after the Louis ville convention, upon the suggestion of lllustrous Potentate, Gus D. Levy. It met with ihstant favor, the proof of this being the fact that many of the members are using it as a greet-. ing to their friends who now" have occasion to visit this city. , The slogan was usad when the Imperial Council Committee, compos ed of Messrs. Melish, Brown, Howell, Cutts and McCandless -met here re cently. It was also the greeting ex tended Fred A. Hines, Imperial De puty oPtentate, who was also a re cent visitor to the "City of Sunshine." It met with popular favor and there is no doubt but that "Glad-U-Kum" will sound good to the ear of the Canic Near Choking to Death., A little boy, the sort of Chris D.
