"Is THE YOUNG MAN sAFE9"

Under the above caption the State
executive committee of the Young Mems
Christian Association has issued an ap-
peal from the Richmond headquarters
to the thousands of fathers in this State,
and, In fact, to every father in the land,
to aid in the work being carried on by
the association by such financial assist
ance as they can give to the
treasurer, Mr.. G. z. Willis, of
Richmond. The report of the work
being done and the statement of
the condition of the treasury, which
were made at the convention held some
time ago in this city, show that more
money is needed for the performance of
the plans outlined at that time. The
appeal therefore comes at an opportune
time, and is calculated to call forth
from those who are able to respond q
considerable sum, which no doubt
would be judioiously expended.
The proper development and training
of our young men is one Of the most
important questions of the day, and the
@. e., in cooperation with the various
associations throughout the State, is
earnestly endeavoring to solve this
problem by throwing around our young
men Christian influences at times when
they most need helpful counsel and
assistance. That they are succeeding
is manifested by the large membership
being attained by many OF the associa-.
tlons and the interest shown by the
young men who become Identified with
the work.
Aside from the fact of tho moral train.
ing and the throwing around the Young
men of wholesome religious atmos-
phere, the association is doing gre at
work in providing reading rooms and
pieces for social Intercourse, forming
classes for educational advanceua e 4 t
and giving opportunity for physical de-
velopment, all of which cannot but
prove beneficial to any one who may be
drawn into these circles of its work
Whatever may be the religious princi-
Piles of the young man, or however OBJ.
posed one may be to the acceptance of
church doc trines, the good to be derived
from such an organization cannot be
overestimated.
Under such circumstances, then, the
father who cares for the moral welfare
OF his son could have no hesitaucy in
assisting in supp orting a work which
can accomplish and has accom- lished
so much.
