growth of the entire movement. One
secretary devotes his time to look
ing up and suggesting men to act as
secretaries, physical directors and
other employees. The number of
such is now 400 and is steadily in
creasing. Two secretaries care for
printing and sale of the 200 publica-
tons of the international committee.
Three secretaries are employed at
Headquarters. conducting correspon-
dence, distributing literature and
performing general administrative
work. Finally. there are eighteen
secretaries in foreign fields, three be-
ing in Japan, FIVE in China. nine N
India and Ceylon, and one in Brazil.
The work of these secretaries is that
of establishing model associations at
certain strategic centers and train
ing native Christian young men to
take charge of them. This work is
done in conjunction with the resident
missionaries of the various church
boards. In India and Ceylon alone
there are 125 associations with more
than 5000 members. They own sew
eraI fine buildings. the one at Ma
dras costing $66 900. and the one at
Calcutta $4,000.

the Y. NJ C. A. associations in North

work has been steadily broadened,
but the directly religious features
still hold first place and have alb
sorbed the best thought of the most
successful workers.
Funds for carrying on the vast and
varied work of the international COM
mittee are provided by the local and
state associations, and by many men
and women of large means, who, al
though in many cases not members.
believe that there is no other Christ
| ian work more effective and wide
spread. and so likely to elevate young
men The expenditures of the com
mittee in 1865 were less than $500;
in 1S9S-99. including the foreign field,
they amounted to $4,000. The lat

army and navy work, but the OK
