The board Of directors Of the Young
Mems Christian association met last
evening IN the association rooms on
North Washington avenue and the
canvass for the money yet to be raised
for the construction of the new build
ing was formally launched.
The plan as arranged is for each of
the ten directors to personally interest
two other men in the work, each group
of three to comprise an active can
vassing committee to wait upon the
people of the city and present intelli-
gently the needs and requirements of
the association and the benefits which
will accrue from the proposed new
building.
1t was stated at last evenings e meet
ing that enough funds had already
been received or pledged to warrant
the advertising for bids and the conf
mencement Of actual work as soon as
possible.
Secretary Mahy yesterday received
letter from Architect Davis stating
that the working plans and speclflca-
tions would be sent on this week his
whole office force having worked upon
them for the past month. In no other
building ever erected in this city has
there been such vast amount of in
tricate detail planning as in this one.
After the working plans have been
received they will. of course. have to
be revised somewhat by the directors,
but it is confidently expected that Lv
about the second week in March bids
can be advertised for. Allowing pros
poctiye hiddarc oua month - hiI ou
the structure, it can be stated positive
ly that building operations will be
commenced May I, If not sooner.
The second number Of young Men,"
the monthly published in tn, interests
of the local association, was issued
yesterday and is, like the initial num-
Der, very interesting and attractive
publication.
