Charlotte, Jan. 14.—My at tention has bean called to the editorial item in your iaaue of Dec. 27 concerning the building to be erected at High Point for a Young Men's Christian Associ tion, and 1 am constrained to call your attention to a few facts in connection with it. We appreciate highly the influence of newspapers like yours and want it with us In our efforts to promote the welfare of young men, Pint of all let me say that the movement in High Point started with the ministers themselves who, after careful study of the situation and of the work that Young Men's Christian Asso ciation is doing today when properly equipped and support ed, unanimously agreed that it offered the best solution of their problem. Then the best business men and most success ful manufacturers were led to consider the matter. They af ter carefully doing so reached the same conclusion and ap pointed a committee to raise the necessary funds. a aiu ii«uk 10 mam mac, where towns propose to start the work on the basis that Gas tonia and many other places in the Carolina* conducted it some years ago, ocr Inter-State Com mittee’s advice agrees with you, " Don’t.• We have done so in a number of places within the past year. But High Point, with its usual enterprise, pro poses to erect a building with adequate provision for reading room, library, educational work, hatha, gymnasium, bowling and other games, boys' work, dor mitories, social and rrligion* gatherings. With such an equipment, in charge of a trained Secretary, the work is invariably successful and en ioys the hearty approval aod support of all good people. I am sending you the January nnmbcr of "Association Men" by which yon will see that ' the advance in the past five years surpasses the entire forty-seven years of the Association's previ ous history.” At to your suggestion about the churches putting their yonng people to work it is a tbiu^ to be devoatly desired. Bat it is not wise for all the churches to nnite in providing a building for tbeir young people to work with which will be adeqoatc to the requirements of successful work for yonng men. The remarkable growth of the work in recent years certainly indicates that such is the opin ion of the leaden in Christian effort,, and that successful CHristisn business men are so fully convinced of it that they are giving largty to the sop port aud exteusion of the move ment, ' 11 alter looktnv over "Associa tion Men" you feel like calling attention to the progress which is shown we will be glad to have yon do so. Yours sincerely, G. C. Huntington Inter-State Secretary, Mr. Kiadky laflrar. There is no advertise meat in ThkGazhtth to-day of Kindley Belk Bros. Co. Mr. W. E.
