EXTENDS TO MEXICO.
Organization of Y. M. G. A. in Capital
of the Republic

A Young Mems Christian Association is
to be established in the City of Mexico.
This announcement was made yesterday
afternoon by Mr. E. T. Cotton one of the
student secretaries of the international
committee. in an address before the local
" NJ C. A. at the cub house on G street.
Mr. Cotton was the guest of the Volunteer
League of the Y. M. C. A., which met for
the first time this season. This organiza-
ton has charge of the work in foreign
lands, and it's progress was discussed by
Mr. w. l.. Beard, recently arrived from
Foo Chow; r. l.. Ewing. who is preparing
to go to India. and Messrs. Dzau and Hi
rayama. natives of China and Japan, re-
spectively.
In making the announcement relative to
the establishment of the branch associa-
ton in the City of Mexico Mr.. Cotton said
many of the business men of that city, and
especially the employees of the railroad
companies living at the Mexican capital,
had made repeated requests. He said that
as 1t had been decided to start an associa-
ton in Havana no good reason remained
why the City of Mexico should not receive
similar treatment. A student secretary
will leave shortly to begin the work of or
ganizing. Ten new secretaries will be sent
to other foreign fields to carry on the work
Of the association. The meeting was pre-

were laid.
Mr. Cotton spoke at the big meeting
held yesterday afternoon at the Lafayette
Theater, and notwithstanding the inclem-
ent weather the auditorium was comforta-
bly, filled Mr.. E. G. Wilson, director of the
religious work, under Secretary Pierce, an
nounced that it is proposed TO organize stu
dent bodies from the several schools and
colleges in this city to work in connection
with the Y. NJ. c. A. Music was furnished
by the Amphlion Glee Club, led by ]. Henry
Lewis supported by the association or
chestra, under Mr.. d. B. Macleod. The
singing was led by Mr.. Percy S. Foster.
DIR. Harold M. Rider, pastor of the North
Capitol Methodist Church, made the OPEN
ing prayer, and Rev. d. w. Montgomery of
the Fifth Congregational Church closed the
services with a benediction.
Mr.. Cotton made a direct appeal to the
individual lives and conduct of his hearers.
urging higher ideals. He contended that
back of the predominant sin in every mans
life there is to be found a reason that Is
easily read by the earnest seeker after the
truth. The reason for the individual sur
render to temptation Mr.. Cotton said Is
sometimes rooted In the realm of ambition,
appetite or pleasure. but wherever 1t may
be seated there Is almost invariably dis
obedience of the first law of living exercise
in its broad and comprehensive sense. Men
to be what God intended them to be must
have exercise, physically. mentally and
spiritually.
Bible study said Mr.. Cotton, is believed by
and SO. he declared would be Shakespeare's
masterpieces and every other great literary
classic II they were read in the half-hearted
way that many people read the Bible Spir-
ttual power and reality do not fall upon
men. They come. rather. from q personal.
