 A number of members of the Young Mems Christian association of Yale In the spring of 1888 began to conduct mis- sion meetings In hall on Grand ave- nue. The work grew and was prosper ous, so that the association decided in the fall of 1893 to take steps looking to a considerable enlargement of this branch of It's effort. A whole house was rented at 215 East street, and the upper floors were supplied with twenty comfortable beds. and otherwise fitted up for a lodging house. The first story, which was once used for a saloon. now makes an excellent meeting room. Dur ing nearly the whole college year stu dents conduct services here every Fri day and Sunday evening, and for time last winter a meeting was also held on Wednesday evening. This year the work lis to be still further extended by the opening of a Sunday school The need of this new departure Is clear ly shown from the fact that there are many Protestants, but no Protestant churches, in the vicinity.
