The Y. M. q. A. District Convention,
which meets in the Y. M. e. A. rooms this
afternoon, assemblies under peculiar and
unexpected circumstances. Since its last
meeting the Presidency Of the State Asso-
citation has fallen to it's lot, Staunton has
been made the headquarters of the State
Association and its working machinery
has been removed here. At the State Con-
vention, in Richmond, last week, Il. l..
Hoover, ESQ.,. of Staunton, was elected
President of the State Association and the
following resolution was adopted: '"That
we recommend the headquarters OF the
State Committee be located at stanton,
and we nominate the following State Com
mittee: H. l.. Hoover, T. D. Ransom, j.
w. Newton, J. W. Todd, James 81. Skim
ner, A. Koiner, Rev. T. M. Boyd and A.
G. Christian, all Of Stanton" The FOL
lowing resolution adopted at the State
Convention will account, we think, in part
at least for these changes:
That the SUCCESS that has attended the
work in the district Ut which StauntOn Is
the centre, demonstrates the need for dis
trict work and district conventions, and
it is recommended that the State Commit
tee divide up such sections of the State as
may be practicable. aud We urge upon the
associations the impOrta ICE OF extending
their work by stimulating and organizing
associations in the section contiguous to
them.
In the report Of the proceedings OF the
State Convention, we find the following:
