as follows:

SUNDAY SCHOOL UNIoN.-Accord-
ing to announcement, thu Cedar
Falls Sabbath School Union was
held last Sabbath afternoon at the
p esbyterian church. There was an
evidence Of the growing interest i'm
the work, among the older people by
the liberal turn out, the house being
crowded full. Mr.. Tucker, the presi-
dent, being absent the vice presi.
dent, Caleb May, presided over the
exercises. The Secretary made no
report of the condition of the
schools, not having had anything
handed in from the secretaries of the
various schools represented in the
Union. The singing of the children,
under the direction of Prof. Bum,
was very fine, adding greatly to this
life and interest of the occasion. The
tinging was intcrspersed with the
reading of essays and the delivery oi
short speeches. Rev, Mr.. Griffith
spoke to the teachers. Prof J. L.
Rhodes REID an essay OH the "aspira,
tions of the immortal SOUL" and
Prof. /. IL. Bum and Rev. r.. w.
Keller delivered short addresses Ia
the children. We are glad to see
these meetings i'm our city, and we
trust that they will continue to in.
crease in power and interest.

LITERARY Societies. noticed
In the GAZETTE of last week, that
attention was called to the import
ance Of organizing Debating societies,
and the suggestion that Cedar Falls
should have literary organization
of this kind, was good one. 1t is q
sad commentary upon the in,elli-
gence and tastes of our young men,
that they have never become inter
ested in an enterprise of this kind.
| We doubt If there is a town of the
size of Cedar Falls, in all the broad
State of Iowa, where so little interest
in this direction is manifested. We
do not believe that all our young
men spend their evenings In saloons,
but we are sorry to say that many do,
who ought to be found with higher
aspirations and desires then visiting
thu Sc low dens of iniquity and crime.
We have now no literary organiza-
ton of any kind in Cedar Falls,
where the young can go and be
amused and instructed, while We
have plenty of home talent for an
| interesting debating society, If only
brought out. We would not limit it
alone to young men. Let the ladies
have part and thus aud interest.
The benefits which would result from
such an organization cannot be esti-
mated, for it is a fact patent to the
most casual observer, that young
men will seek amusement, that be-
ing as natural a tendency in them as
that water should run down hill, aud
If they cannot be satisfied in any
other way they will frequent the
saloons where the allurements are
numerous and various. ...a
We are glad to know that there are
many young men i'm Cedar Falls,
who could not be induced to visit the
saloons of our city, but they are not
working with purpose for good. 1t
Is for this class TO take hold of this
matter, and then induce those who
are not thus inclined to join them.
We know you, Mr. Editor, have from
time to time insisted upon the organ.
ization of Young Mems Christian
Association, aud the establishment of

be of no avail thus far. In Waterloo
they have an organization OF this
kind, which is meeting with good
success. Are our young people less

so, while their inactivity but admits
