The evening meeting opened with
the usual song service, conducted by
c. B. Willis, of Milwaukee. followed by
an address by Ex-President j. Nj.
Whitehead. of GAINESVILLE, who spoke
on "Twelve Months Among Young
Men," He showed the great good &C.
complished by the association, espec-
iallv among the loggers, the progress OF
the association in financial and num-
erical way, and gave brief resume OF
the work done by the association IN
the past year.
Following the short address OF MI.
Whitehead came the illustrated lecture,
" The Association Home and Work, "
bv L. Wilbur Messer, of Chicago. He
began by showing upon the canvas the
bedroom of London gentleman, 10
which he, with eleven young men in
vited for the purpose, organized the
first Young Mems Christian assocla-
ton. He next threw upon the canvas
the st. PauPs cathedral at London,
when fifty years after the first organl-
cation the Y. NJ G.. A. met in conven-
ton with an attendance of over 2,OOO
Young men. The 7. M. G. A. buildings
throughout the principal cities OF the
country were presented as an evidence
of the present substantially OF the as
ISOLATION. In order to Illustrate the
power of the Y. M. G. A. for good in
opposition to the evil influences about
them the lecturer gave a picture of the
Hoffman house bar. There are 5000
of those places in the city of Chicago.
Other places of vice, such as gaming
and card saloons, were pictured.
A very touching feature of the even
ing was the reproduction of the beau
tiful picture, Breaking Home Ties, "
while C. B. Willis rendered pathetic
song with a similar theme.
The speaker also showed the branch
building of the railroad men in New
York, given by the Vanderbilts, and
costing $35O,O00. Other buildings
among the railroad branch of the asso-
citation were pictured and it was stated
that these men contribute $40, 900
yearly to the association.
The Y. M. C. A., of Chicago, sup
ports a night school, at which over
400 students are in attendance and
1850 of tuition is paid in two months.
Mr.. Messer also stated that there were
$4,000 more students in the night
schools throughout the country than in
the liberal arts school and colleges
Less than half the members of the 7
M. c.. A. are christians, but are drawn
into it by the night schools and gym
nasiums. The speaker closed with
saying that the association is growing
continually both in material power and
influence for good.
