clerks He did not form the movement as |
Luther did the reformation. We find that |
it is to-day largely business men who run
and shape the business policy of the asso-
Citations. It is the evolution of business
men and business principles as applied to
Christian work. It is momentous cues
ton to-day how to manage the association
grown to the proportions that it now
enjoys of $40 buildings and property OF
100000 C0 in value in the coun-
try. Even work for the lord will not
prosper without hard earnest efforts.
That old motto which often times hangs
on the walls of boarding house, 1.-The
Lord will provide" is an excellent one we
all know, but we also know that the lord
helps him most who helps himself.
Dr. Warner spoke enthusiastically OF the
gymnasium in connection with the asso-
ciation He thought it did not need any
apologies ever to be offered for it. ASIDE
from it's being an excellent chance to sur
round young man in the gymnasium
with Christian influences it gives him
strong, healthy physique to carry on not
only his duties Of life, but Christian work
as well. -,
He emphasized the good of working
among the boys, taking them in from thlr-
teen to fourteen years of age, and In
short time making them active and efficient
workers themselves.
The work of the association is totally
| distinct from that of the church. This
great association is the contribution OF
business men throughout the country as a
| solution of some of the existing problems
| of the day. He complimented New Haven
as having the finest rented rooms of any
that he had ever seen, but hoped the time
| would not be far distant when they would
have a building of their own.
The singing under Mr.. Towner's able di-
| rection was very efficient.
j Mr.. E. w. Watkins of New York city
was the last speaker of the evening on
Association Buildings" His address was
supplemented by stereopticon views show
ing off some of the most prominent associ-
alton buildings in this as well as in other
countries. It was matter to be regretted
that Mr.. Watkins was shortened in his al
lowed time, for he proved one of the most
interesting speakers that have addressed
| the convention.
Among the pictures shown was one OF
Mr., Mcintosh, the efficient and untlr1ne
| General secretary of the New Haven
