sour readers may not be aware how valuable
the Y. M. CA. associations are becoming to the
great and important class of commercial trav
elers To illustrate and convey an idea of this
work, we will use the name of Warren w. Cole,
who made us pleasant call a few days ago,
and asked information and reference to good
boarding house, all Of which was cheerfully
given Mr.. Cole is the western representative
of the Burrowes Sliding Wire Window Screen
Co., of Portland, Maine. He is christian gen.
tleman, and the member of the Y. M. c. A. at
Portland. By the annual payment of his dues
in that city, he receives commercial travel
er's ticket which admits him to all the privil-
eyes of any association where he may go, as he
is deprived of the privileges of his own. Ac-
companying his ticket is a list of the associa-
lions in the United States. When Brother
Cole arrives in town he visits the Y. M. G. A
rooms, and if they have bath rooms, his ticket
gives him free bath: if they have lecture or
social entertainment, his ticket is passport to
that enjoyment, &C. 1t will be seen at once
what a blessing this system would be to young
man in strange city among strangers, with
idle time on his hands and the churches open
only one night in the week.
