The Association has fairly entered
Hpon canvas for one hundred new
members, and it is believed this mum
her can be secured within thirty days.
p can certainly be accomplished if one
trnth of the present members will in
terest themselves in the work. This
work has not been pushed for several
months, on account of the fact that dur
ing the fall and winter number of the
young men were working on short
hours and reduced pay, but now that
most of them are putting in full time,
and some working extra, it seems an
opportune time to call their attention to
the benefits to be received from mem
bership in the Association.
Approaching the advantages of mem
fership to young men, the Estey Manu-
facturing Co. has just made arrange
ments with the Directors, whereby tick
cts good for all privileges for one year
will be issued to the first fifty men in
their employ applying for the same, at
the reduced rate of $4.00. This oppor-
tdnity to secure the privileges made
possible by the liberality of the Estey
Go. lis being appreciated, and already
. number of applications have been filed
from among their employees.
Members, let us make a strong pull
together to roll up one hundred new
members by May 10th.

NO uNBELIEF.

There is no unbelief--
Whoever plants seed beneath the sod,
And waits to see 1t push away the clod,
Believes in God.
Whosoever lies down on his couch to sleep,
Content to lock each sense in slumbei deep,
Knows God will keep
Whoever says Tomorrow, 1.-THE unknown"
THE future, trusts that power alone,
His words disown.
The faith that sees when earthly eyelids close
And dares TO live when life is filed with woes
Gods comfort knows.
There is no unbelief-
And day by day, and night increasingly.
Mans heart lives by the faith his lips deny,
His soul knows why

Stanton, this State. is little city of
about 1000 population. Several months
ago it occurred to man of some means,
residing in the city, that something
should be done for their young men,
and at his own expense and at cost of
about $1,000, fitted up reading room,
gymnasium and bath rooms. A leader
of one of the gymnasium classes of the
Detroit Association was employed as
physical director, and six classes have
been conducted weekly with an attend
ance of seventy men. Oh for one or

The annual dues are S5 (less than ten

Another question that may arise is,
does the Young Mems Christian Associ-
alton actually reach young men, and is
the work of the Owosso Association
adapted to the needs of all classes ? Is
it doing the work it has undertaken and
processes to do? This is best answered
by saying that the membership roll of
our local Association shows its members
to be engaged in sixty-three different
occupations as follows: Attorneys,
bankers, book-keepers, boiler-makers,
BARRIERS, bother, blacksmiths, bakers,
clergymen, carriage makers, carriage

A young man in one of our meetings
recently said he was thankful we had a
Young Mems Christian Association in
Owosso, where young men could meet.
He was reminded by another gentle
man, that while large number of the
young men of the city appreciated and
enjoyed the privileges of the Associa-
ton, there were many others who were
totally indifferent to our organization.
To them, it is as though there was
not an Association in town: Do we
not owe it to those fellows, to try to in
duce them to share the benefits with us?
1t is like many another blessings-it in
creases by being shared with others.

If there is one thing in our work that
Is apparent, it is the great need for
facilities for carrying on work for boys.
There are scores of boys in the city who
would be glad to avail themselves of the
privileges of the Association, but these
advantages are denied them. What is
aeeded is a room, under supervision,
provided with literature and games
suited to boys, and which would be open
afternoons and Saturdays. The design
Is not to take boys away from their
homes,-the most unobserving see they
are away already-but to provide ONE
place, at least free from communicating
influences, where they can meet their
friends. This work is now carried on
by two hundred and sixty-six Associa-
lions of our country, the membership
of the Junior Departments aggregating
1884. We believe one of the strongest
arguments for enlarged and increased
facilities for the Association is that we
may undertake a legitimate line of work
for our little men

PROSPECT OF RELIEF

The Senators who are engineering
the tariff bill through the Senate are
counting ON forty three Democratic
votes and expect to pass the bill if
necessary, without the support of Mr..
Hill. About one hundred amend
ments have been agreed upon. The
principal change proposed is said to be
the income tax provisions. The Dem
ocrats are said to have agreed to elimi-
nate from the bill the tax on the in
comes of corporations, because such
a tax would either be double tax or
would affect persons whose income is
less than the amount exempted.
1t is predicted by those in a position
to know, that the bill will be passed
by the first of June. This is con-
summation devoutly to be wished by
the suffering industries of the country
The Mckinley tariff has brought about
a period of severe commercial distress,
but even this product of the Harrison
administration, with all its atrocities,
is better than the uncertainty under
which merchants and producers are
now laboring. However, the Senate
should be excused for moving eau
tiusly, and the country should give
them conservative judgment in weigh
ing their actions, for it is safe to say
that the great bus mess interests,
which represent the prosperity of our
country, will not allow the tariff to
be meddled with again for ten years
to come. Campaign speakers will
have to reconstruct their speeches
and party conventions will have to re-
frame their cut and dried platforms,
for whichever way Congress settles
the question it must remain for some
time to come.
