They VIII Reopen the First Week
in October.

IN OctODeEs
Statistics show that of the boys in
school until u years of age, four-fifths
drop out before they are two years older.
OF every 100 young men only five are
prepared and equipped by education for
their occupation and business. OF every
100 grammar school graduates eight obtain
their livelihood in the professions and
business trained for their vocations by
means of college and university privi-
leges; the other ninety-two earn their liv-
ing by means of their hands.
The great majority of these ambitious
and deserving young men and boys are
busy in the day time, having only the
evenings to utilize for improvement. The
Young Mems Christian Association are
making effort to extend to this army of
young men DEFINITE, practical, helpful IA
ciliues through their evening industrial
schools. Last year over 25, 600 young men
were thus practically aided in evening
classes along commercial and Industrial
lines
The Savannah association will resume
its evening classes the first week in Oc-
tober, teaching the following classes. tut

English, embracing grammar, spelling,
composition and practical correspondence;

arithmetic; mechanical and freehand

practical instructors, who are anxious to
help those who wish to learn and are not
afraid 10 study hard. 1t has been wisely
remarked by some one:
The association seeks to aid young men
in every manner to obtain success, pros
perity, character and usefulness There is
nope for every man who is willing to
learn chance for those who wish to
learn, and bright future for those who
are determined to learn"
