why those people cannot know anything about
the conditions on the East Side" he said. we go
on the theory over here that the poor man needs
pleasure lust as much as does the rich man, and
we take pains to give him pleasure or the rght
sort Now, most boys have chance 10 go out
and play football and exercise their bodies IN sports
OF that sort. but the man who lives on the East
Side cannot do that. There is no room, and the
only way we have found to solve the difficulty is TO
fix I'D gymnasums You will find that Grace
Church. st. James's, St. Bartholomew and many
OTHER churches have gymnasiums in their East side
missions. In these gymnasums we have wres oInT

more fervent, do you suppose religion Consists OF
nothing more than saying ones prayers? It's
cad thing that people are led to believe that

reneating psalms The religious life is the hap
piest life there is If it's rightly understood: and we
are trying to make these men OF the East SIDE good
in a healthy way Every man demands pleasure
of some sort, and we are teaching them good KIND
of pleasure. and keeping them away from the
vicious kinds which beset them on all sides. Every
thing we do over here is legitimate pure and above
board and dare say you will find the men or our
club as temperate, moral and manly lot as can be
found anywhere Why. 1t is simply absurd 20
