their first anniversary last Sunday
evening at the Methodist church, and
presented to the large audience an
interesting order of exercises. The
music, which was remarkably good
was furnished by the members of the
association, ably assisted by several
of the best voices among the young
ladies OF the city.
Morgan Frierson presided at the
organ, and performed with rare skill
The association is doubtless deeply
indebted to this young gentleman fol
so kindly assisting them AT this meet
ing.
Mr.. II. P. Figuers made some ex
cellent remarks, taking "lnconsis
tency" as his subject.
The address of w. $. Fleming, Jr.
the President of the Association
| ton. We give only a brief synopsis
| of it. He said that the association
aim was not to supplant the churcl
but was IN fact what it professed t.
| be, the right arm of the church. Any
| association that fails in this, is un
worthy of the support of the public
| but any association that fultills thu
object for which it was organized, de
serves not only the financial supper
of the public, but the encouragement
of the peoples presence in. all thei
meetings, and a remembrance in thu
peoples prayers.
The Association does no CHART!
work that branch of religious wOrl
having been left to that beautiful ant
most excellent order, the King
Daughters.
He referred to the liberality will
which the people of Columbia re
spunded last year to the request 70
said that the Association was there t
render the dividend to each one TO
| the investment they made.
He referred frequently to til
Secretary's report and emphasize
the facts contained in it, and showed
that the associations life for the pas
wear was one of undOubted progress
He closed by saying in substance
that the Association loves the sup
port of the low minded, and deserve
the practical support of the hig
minded.
We cannot add to what was sal
that evening, and we cannot hope t
impress more fOrcibly upon the pub
lie mind than has already been dor {
that the Young Mems Christian
Association is q grand organization
but we lay it down as a truth tina
cannot be controverted, that idlenes
is fruitful cause of backslidingr
There are many young men who fee
that their christian growth depend
upon active work for their Loru an
Master. To such we say, what tn
association says all the time, go visi
the sick young men of your city
go to the gospel meeting for men onl
and take a friend wi IN you; take ad
vantage of the opportunity given 20
to testify of the hope that is in you
Go to the reading room and spend a
occasional evening there, and whe
you go take some young man whom
you know to be living bad life, wit
YOU; entertain him and endeavOT
keep him out of evil places, ava
from evil companions.
This is what the young men of tn
association have been trying to do
this is some of the work it will Civ
you to do. Will you do it?
