BOYS DEPARTMENT coMM1rrEE:
A Membership Hustler.

.- 4
At recent meeting of the board of
directors it was decided to give 25 ner
cent Of all the money taken in on mem
bersh1p to the boys building fund. Ey-
cry member brought in means $1.25 for
the new building. This is a plan NOT
only to increase the treasury budget.
but also to increase the membership.
The boys have been divided into two
factions, the reds and the blues. It is
the aim Of each faction to bring in the
most members before Feb. 1. The side
bringing In the most members before
that time will be banqueted, providing
they have brought in more than fifty
members, and only those who have
brought in one member or more will be
invited.
Inc boys are trying hard to raise the
remainder Of their 81 1000, and this plan
was adopted because it would not only
create In them desire for a new build
ing, but also an increased membership.
A new building is an absolute neces-
slty. 1t becomes more evident day bv
day. There are more boys in the bows
department this year than ever before.
1t is expected that the five hundred
mark will be reached before the close
OF the association year.,
The night school for boys that ara
employed during the day is overflow
ing and all the gymnasium classes are
larger than ever before. They do not
want to stop the growth, however. The
only remedy is a new building equipped
to take care Of all who come in. The
game rooms are always overcrowded,
and the only thing to be done is to
work for new building
ID. G. Garrigues, J. s.. Porteous and
E: G. Decker were appointed as a COM
m1ttee from the board Of directors to
raise money for the new. building. Fred
erlck Ware, Charles H. Alcock and
George Akerson were appointed from
the boys cabinet for the same purpose.
Sunday Meetings Popular.
The Sunday afternoon meetings are
attended with a great deal of enthu-
slasm. About eighty younger boys at
tended the opening meeting Of the
Boys Sunday club. Last Sunday Rev.
W. B. Riley of the First Baptist church

Mr.. Riley's address was in the nature
OF an evangelistic sermon, and at the
close Mr.. Morris sang Lord, I'm Com

A business meeting was held and Off

CHRISTIAN ENDEAVOR
CONVENTION SOUGHT

Kansas City, Los Angeles, Seattle,
eapolis-which9
All Of these cities want the 1907
Christian Endeavor~ convention, and the
placing of it will not be decided until
the trustees Of the United society meet
in Boston in February, but it is be-
Iieved that, from geographical stand
point, the plum strategically and logi-
call y belongs to Minneapolis. The gen
eral conditions in Minneapolis favor the
bringing of the convention here.
The treasurer of the World s union,
William Shaw of Boston, comes to Min
nesota next week particularly to be with
the local union on Friday evening
Wednesday evening he will be in Will
mar, Thursday in Redwood Falls, and he
returns to Minneapolis on Friday to be
entertained by the Commercial club at
a o'clock luncheon and to meet with
the city union of Christian Endeavor
at banquet at the First Congrega-
tional church at $50, after which he
will address mass meeting in the au-
ditorium Of the same church.
The entire executive committee Of
the St. Paul union will attend the ban
quet, and will be followed for the mass
meeting by two chartered carloads of
fellow workers.
The occasion of the banquet is the
semi-annual meeting of the city union
The business will be disposed of very
expeditiously in order to give as much
time as possible to Mr.. Shaw and the
message that he will bring. One fea-
ture, however, that will have free
course will be in connection with the
forming Of an alumni organization, an
association to include all the ,"veter-
ans''-to use the words of an active
worker-who can be interested. It is
believed that such a company will be
of untold help in handling the great
convention that Minneapolis is looking
forward to. Tickets to the abanquet
are so cents, and may be had of W. v.
Haight, D. E. Loomis, and at meet
ing Of the local society presidents at
the Y. NJ. G. A. hall next Wednesday
evening. There will be $50 plates laid,
and when that number of tickett has
been disposed Of the sale will close. The
city pastors are particularly invited.

200 to $50 persons. which will be used
for Sunday school purposes as well as

On the second floor will be the cooking

ner of the building day nursery, with
accommodations for upwards of thirty
small children who can be cared for

The Movements Inception.
The movement for q new settlement
building in which to house the work
heretofore carried on, by Bethel settle
ment- was inaugurated at an informal
meeting of friends. of the @awork, at
which We're represented Plymouth, Park
and the First Congregational churches,
held at Plymouth church on April I
last: A call was issued on the fol-
lowing Sunday morning for a larger
meeting to consider the matter. On the
afternoon Of that day Mayor D. p.
Jones was visited by Charles s.. and
John s. Pillsbury, whose father had
given the land for the old building and
whose family has always been interest
ed in the work. They suggested that
they themselves would be pleased TO-
give the money necessary to build and
equip a new plant which should be
erected as memorial to their parents,
MIR. and Mrs. Charles A. Pillsbury.
The sum of $4,000 was named as
likely to furnish the work with a suit
able site and building. One stipulation
only was attached to the offer of the
Messrs. Pillsbury-that there should be
raised the sum Of 100000, the income
therefrom to be used for the proper
Hus1HIeHdHce ol tne DullulHg Needless
to say, Plymouth church Immediately
undertook the work Of fulfilling this
condition, and by June 1 the entire
sum was pledged.
A new corporation known as the So
cial Settlement association Of Mime
apolis was organized for the purpose
Of holding the property and acting as
trustees Of the endowment fund. This
corporation consists Of D. P. Jones,
president; Charles s. and John s. Pills
bury; Benjamin P. Woodwork, treas
urer; N. F. Hawley, Miss Mary T. Hale
and J. R. Kingman. Some difficulty
was experienced in selecting and OBJ
tanning a proper site for the building.
The work in the future, as in the
past, will be maintained by the three
leading Congregational churches, Park
Avenue, Plymouth and the First.

AS people we are very fond of | fraud, says a writer in Field and
 stream. We don't much care for law
 and we love to be fooled. In no line of commerce are we more. recularl,
 fooled and defraudcd than in the retail fur trade. The crminc which my lady buys for the collar of her opera coat
 costs her some dollars per skin. She
 may pay S1 for the black tip Of the
 tail of q single erminc skin. The tran- per who caught the weasel from which came the ermine got. perhaps. 10 cents
 Tor the skin. perhaps ]. perhaps noth. ing. Ihat IS not so bad. and no one could object to q. commercial transac- ton of that kind. A great many per sons know that crmine is weasel. How L.dny know that muskrat pulled and dyed Is often sold as seal. that nutria similarly treated is sold as seal or beaver: that rabbit so treated is sold as seal or electric seal: that pulled and dyed otter is reguarly sold as seal: that marmot dyed is sold as mink and sable. that fitch dyed is sold as sable and rabbit also sold as sable; that hare and muSkrat arc sold as mink or sable. and white rabbit as erminc or chinchilla. or fox; that goat is dyed and sold as bear: that many kinds of lamb are sold as Persian: that skunk is called Alaska sable: that American sable is sold as Russian crown sable: that monkey and iynN and dog and fox and polecat and muSkrat and cat. and all sorts of diff fcrent furs. are sold under all sorts of hig sounding names; that white hairs are regularly inserted in fox skins and sometimes in sable skins: Surely moi all of our readers were advised as to these details. There is a vigilance committee appointed ny the London chamber of commerce. whose duty is 10 spread information against thess trade frauds. We presume we need nothing of that sort in America. for Eorc We dcn't mind being fooled.

It cannot be denied that the life in surancc companies have, by their own act. deliberately offered inducement and temptation to suicide.
