Y, M. G. A. State Work.

The State Committee of the Young
Mems Christian Associations OF New
Hampshire and Vermont have arranged to
employ number of college and other
students, beginning the latter part of June
for systematic visitation Of limited
number of the smaller towns and villages of
the State.
The object of the visit is to aid pastors in
their efforts to increase interest among
Young Peoples societies and others in
personal Bible study and aggressive Chris
tan work. 1t is also desired to acquaint
the friends of young men everywhere with
the work of the Associations, with special
reference to their being brought under the
influence of some pastor and church upon
their leaving home for new residence.
The plan is to spend one week if nee.
essary in each place. 1t is hoped thai
union meetings can be arranged through
the Young Peoples organizations, or else
by the pastors of the various towns.
There will be no charge for services o
the visitors, as the state committee is re.
sponsible for the expenses.
Young Peoples societies, brotherhood
or unions desiring to avail themselves o
these visits, can learn further about then
by addressing members of state committee
Or, Claus Olandt. Dr., state secretar.
