PULPIT AND PEW
Y. N. G. A. IN RUSSIA
Organization Similar to That in
America Is Authorized by
the Gar.
It Grew Out Of Successful Asso-
citation in the Russian
Capital.

The Russian government has recently
granted permanent statutes to a Russian
society similar to the Young Mems Chris
tian Association, which will enable it to
extend It's work turnout the entire coun-
try. among the various classes Of young
men, including the large student body
This is regarded as remarkable and sig
nidcant action by the Russian govern
ment. This action has been advisedly
taken by the government, which has
closely watched and encouraged the or
ganization at st. Petersburg, which now
numbers /, 400 members, and has been con-
Quoted up to this time under temporary
statutes. Its activities have been con
fined exclusively to that city, but a large
number of young men. in Moscow have
been awaiting permission from the gov
eminent to effect a similar organization.
This association was instituted by James
Stokes. with the co. operation of promi-
nent men, including w. e; Smith of St.
Petersburg, an American, who is the rep
resenta tive of the Westinghouse company
in Europe and has spent nearly all his
life In Russia. His business standing and
influence in Russia has ena bled him to
render invaluable help in making this or:
ganization effective Among the Russians
who have been prominent In the move
ment are many. of the leaders in it's great
railroad enterprise. Prince luxembourg
has been its patron, and Mr.. Tourch-
onrnoff its president. Another American,
Rev. Franklin A. Gaylord, has been the
secretary Of this society from it's outset.
The Russian government railroad has
sent its representatives to the interna-
tional conventions Of the American asso-
Citations to Study the movement, looking
to the inauguration OF such organizations
along the lines Of its great railroad
Classes for Bible study are among the
leading and popular features of this asso-
citation, and the sale of religious books,
Bibles new testan1ents and books on BIZ
bic study, has been extensive. The at
mosphere of the entire association is Sc
rious while it is one OF the most popu-
lar social and educational and athletic
organizations for young men in St. Peters

Moody School FIGURES.

w. r. Moody who is carrying on the
educational work begun at cNorthf1eld by
his father, D.lL. Moody, expects that two
new buildings for the schools will soon be
under way. One OF these, a new dining
hall, is to be at Mount lHermon, the other,
science hall, at Mortified seminary. AL
ready s55, 900 has been subscribed and the
work will be started when enough more
has been collected to guaranteed compile
ton. The need for both buildings hhas
long been apparent as the Mortified
schools, III the last ten years, have far
soutgrown their early equipment. The; to-
tai student enrolment OF last year was
about 1900 and hundreds had to be
turned away for lack of accommodations.
It Is further estimated this year, that
for every vacancy in Mortified seminary
there were seven applicants, while at
Mount Hermon the ratio of applications
&c vacancies was approximately four to
one. From this number only the indus
trious and ambitious, and those who do
not have sufficient means to go to more
costly schools are chosen.
i That this is the class of students ia
shown in the annual report which reads,
Two -flfths Of our girls lost either father
or mother, or both; one third are girls
who have done something toward self
support; twenty seven are paying their
way and ten are meeting expenses in
part. while fifty seven more are being as
sisted by the Students Aid society and
schoiarships.'' The annual report of
Mount Hern1on school is similar. OF the
725 boys registered during the year, 24O
are working their way. =.
