The May number Of young Men," a

"A Christian young man who enjoys
an income of at least 81, 200 per annum,
and who by his own confession Is saw
ing money. refused to renew his menu
bership in the association. after having
had two years of help and training, be-
cause the promotion which came to him
largely as a result Of that training,
made 1t inconvenient for him to use the
privileges as often as formerly. 1t
would be an unfortunate thing for the
Young Mems Christian association. and
for the development Of Christ's king
dom among young men, II this short
sighted and utterly unChristian atti-
tude should be assumed by very many
of our members.
God pity the church or the associa-
ton which Is supported by men for
what can be gotten out of II In temporal
advantages; and God pity the men who
fiatter themselves with a hope of
