A. was made possi ble, I judge that I am in a position to know some of the many benefits derived 1 therefrom. [ Before the Y. M. C. A. was built there i was no place for the young people of | our town to hold a get-together meeting, i Well do I remember seeing the boys hug i ging the telephone posts near the Pearl | and Gibson Drug Stores. A close in l spection now will convince anyone that j I these posts are worn very smooth from I | past uses. Why? Because there was no I place to meet except in the hedges and i byways. i There is no organization in Concord, | save the church, that has a more wholc i some influence on the young people of i our town than the Y. ,-M. C.i A. It has | given thp boys and girls of every age and ; class regardless of social of financial i standing, a place at which to irieet that j they might enjoy themselves and Jay I aside the arduous and trying tasks of the l day. Tiie Y. M. C. A. has a four-fold j purpose. lit develops ri boy !or. girl, spir- I itunlly, physically, menially and social j Y, If the Concord Y had never done | anything else for the spiritual welfare of l th>e boys and girls of our town and sur rounding vicinity than the Bible Story Contest—a contest in which hundreds'of i boys and girls, fathers and mothers and l friends were interested—it would have I been worth while. ► It. is declared by the best educators [ of our country that physical training is ! essential to mental training. A boy or i a girl cannot do his or her best in school J without plenty of wholesome physical ! exercise. The Y is just the place to get l it. as there are varieties iof .games for the [ “tots and teens” that set to work all i the muscles of the body. i The social feature of the Y. M. C. A. | has been great. The boys and girls meet ( more often, and learn to kuow one an i other better by being in games and eon | tests, etc. Occasionally there is a bnn- I quet for the young people. At such I meetings appreciation, enjoyment, and ; good fellowship always abound. There is no father or mother in Con cord but that feels perfectly satisfied and contented when he or she knows that his i or her son or daughter is at the Y under i guidance and leadership of the present | i efficient and energetic Secretary Blanks. | J. W. B. LONG, Principal No. 2 School. | A PERMANENT INSTITUTION. , i The Y. M. C. A. has every evidence of I [ having become a permanent institution i in oifr life in this country. ; This ccrtain i ly seems no less true in our own town I | and community. Our “Y” has so enter i ed into the activities of the lives of our [ people that it has found h warm welcome. I ! One cannot; visit this institution without! i being impressed with the fact that it is! 1 reaching out into every part of our com-1 \ munity and touching the lives of people i i everywhere. It is ipore than merely a j ; gathering place. We might have plenty of' that kind, but it is a gathering place i with a purpose and with a wholesome in \ fluence. The large crowds of people who \ pass through this building every day tes tify to its popularity more positively ! than any thing elseYhat flight jie pro, ! ducedr ■■■-■l9 J JjFj W y ” ' I Then too the "Y” has a progrijn that I will have a telling influence upon the | life of the town. It has become the mect- I ing. place of all the people of this eom ' munity. No one can realize this better than one who tries to, deal with people of every class. There has been shown the possibility of mixing all classes of people. And this “mixing” is having a wholesome effect on other activities of the town. , Visiting the Y. M. C, A. often one is impressed with the serious character that prevails there. Just a casual glance one might be tempted to think that there is nothing in the program but light amuse ment. While there might be some things that every one would not put in the pro gram if he were mapping it out, yet we must realize that this is an institution for the serious minded as well as for those who have strong inclinations in the other direction. There should be no question as to whether the present canvass will be suc cessful. $15,000 ought to be an easy amount to secure from a community that has patronized the Y. M. C. A. as we have. We are glad to add our appre ciation with the many others for the wholesome effect thi3 institution is ex erting in our town. REV. L. A. THOMAS. Pastor St. James Lutheran Church. TIIE RELIGIOUS SIDE. I am glad of the opportuuity of prais ing the work of our local Y. M. C.' A. and to ask for its loyal support. Under the present management the quantity and quality of the work, put out calls for our heartiest appreciation. Go to the Y and you find a veritable beehive of nc ' tivity. Play is a natural, healthy in | Rtinet of growing youth, and rightly di rected is an essential factor in mp.king men and women out of boys and girls. It is a character builder—;good for body, mind nnd spirit. ' ‘.‘All wpi'k and so plqy makes Jack a dull boy"—and man tdo. But play must be supervised. The “Y” is the only institution in our town carrying on supervised play to any ex tent. Kind of, wqrk that every pastor would like to do for his own young people, but cannot for want of equipment and sup ervision. ‘The “Y” should therefore, com mand the ’ support of Christian people. The policy of our admirable General Secretary is that the “Y” should primar ily serve the church, to reach out and lend its efforts in every way possrble for the good of tiie boys and girls of our town. REV. W. C. WAUCHOPE, . Pastor Second Presbyterian Church. THE FOURFOLD PROGRAM. The idea of the four square man seem ed to be in the mind of the founders of the Y. M. C. A. And this idem must have been Divinely appointed as the world is calling for just this kind of men today.. Concord boasts of having an institu tion in its Y. M. C. A. which is meeting this world-demand. Each side of the four-square man—the physical, social, mental and religious—is being developed ! now in our boys nnd girls as never be fore iu the history of the “Y.” We can not place a money value on this kind of an institution. With the passing years it calls for a greater support in tke prayers and gifts of an appreciative people. M. R. GIBSON. Pastor, A. R. Presbyterian Church. J THE SOUND POLICY OF THE Y. Under present day condil ions I believe there is a place and a work for the Y. 1 M. C. A. in our town and community,j provided this institution is properly sup-! ervised nnd conducted. We need a core- j munity center where the Christian eiti-1 zenship of the community can come to j gether and promote those interests which make for the betterment of the common-1 ity. 1 conceive that tlie_Y. M. C. A. I I is in no sense to take the place of the [ Church but that it may properly be nn ! aid to the church when it furnishes a j wholesome atmosphere for our boys nnd i girls, when it serves to stir and stimu j late their higher and nofcler impulses, ] and when it directs their ’attention to the church as a Divine Institution and to the fact that it is their duty' to be identified with tke Church. This leads me to say that from obser vation nnd upon investigation this seems to be the .policy of. the TflUI. C. A. at present. I believe <he jfJRW- isT. sound and that under this polity tile Y, M. C. A. is a safe plaee for our hoys nnd girls. I believe, also, that many of the less for tunate boys and girls of our towns and community are being reached in a'way that will result in much good auc( that will be very beneficial to sueh boys and girls.

A., to increase the spiritual aiid physical wel fare among the young; people of the Brown and Norcott had Hart Sell Mill schools. We are deeply indebted to him for his work iu this part >of the town. We realize the need of training nmong the young people, and as they grow old er they naturally become a great asset to the Church. * 1 Among some of the movements . al ready started are the four clubs, two at the Hartseli school—one for the boys and one foe the girls; and also two at the Brown and Norcott school. Mr. Blanks is doing a fine work among the boys nnd girls of Concord. It is a No Comeback. ‘The first thing you knew some of your coustomers will get sore and tell the authorities where they bought the hooch."

A.? { Because I believe in youth J Because' I believe in the growth of our splendid yoking life, physically, mentally, spirit ually. There is too much of a tendency j these days to concentrate development in i on* direction, and. as a consequence, we lave physical giants who aye mental weaklings and moral wrecks wc have j mental geniuses who are broken in body j and dwarfed in soul: we have religious fanatics who have neither bodily strength I mi.it,,- S" ■ ■ ■ ■ - - ■ Rare beauties and distinctions \ in lines, finish and upholstery— and the great mechanical luxury of an engine that actually improves vfith useJ The wonderful Willys- Knight sleeve-valve engine is the same type of engine used in the finest cars of Europe.

McBRIDE I ——————— uor mental acumen. What Concord j needs is a development of all the facul ties God has given to the young people of our city. Such a program of develop ment the Y. M. C. A. is helping to pro mote. Under the leadership of Secretary Blanks,' the Concord “Y” is standing squarely behind a program of three-fold | development along the lines mentioned above. It is offering to the youth of our | city an opportunity for physical train | ing that is unexcelled in any city with I equal facilities and equipment. It is I putting new blood into the mental life of the city through its manifold activi ties among the industrial boys and girls. | It is outspokenly religious in its stand I for maral righteousness. i n its appeal for better eo-operation with and among the churches, in its work for the Sunday ; Schools. j The “Y” deserves our heartiest co-op eration and support. It is limited only in that funds are insufficient to provide the PAGE THREE equipment and the personnel needed for the progressive program mapped out by the Secretary and the Board of Directors. Surely Concord will supply the needed funds during the coming campaign! We cannot afford to do less. One of the greatest influences in any city for uplift and for the right development of the young life of the city is the Y. M. C. A. Let's support it! LAWRENCE LITTLE.
