the industrial Y. M. G.. A. While tho
organization abroad has stuck more or
less closely by the original idea OF the
soclety's founder-that of bible study
and mission work among young men
that they might grow spiritually-the
home Y. M. c. A. looks after the mind,
spirit N body. believing that all are
irdissolubly bound together. all go TO
make the man, and to neglect any one
OF these constituents is TO neglect the
others also. This Is the one great idea
hat the American Y. NJ. C. A. has Civ

world at large. n within recent years
the foreign branches have been loosing
their hold on conservatism and grasp
ing the enlarged American principle.
IL Made Physical Culture Popular.
While putting this principle into
practice the home Y. M. c. A. has in
~cidentaliy made physical training pop
uiar in this country.
Physical training was introduced into
the Y. NJ. C. A. about thirty-five years
ago. So few persons had given any
attention to physical development that
the only Instructors VINO could be OBJ
tanned were former circus men, ex-
sluggers and men OF like stripe. Grad
ually, however. capable physical direc-
tors In thorough sympathy with the as
sociation and its aims were trained up,
and from then on began the triumphant
athletic march OF the association. And
when the Y. NJ. C.. A. had proved that
physical training was a good thing for
the masses. then there began the de-
mand for physical culture which has
now become a craze in many quarters.
ard led TO the establishment of heaven
knows how many physical culture

where the mountain is named for her.
She was attracted to the mountain
from her first sight OF it. Evening aft
er evening she sat in the door OF the
primitive log cabin built for the min

peak. Frank q. Shaffer, her father,
entertained some members Of the gov

and the talk turned upon the owe OF the

that ought to have it."
The due process OF business was COM

channels, the naming OF the mountain
went on. Now a circula from official
sources notifies all who are engaged In

This branch OF the educational work Is
especially valuable in town and country
districts, where the authorities, unlike
their brethren OF the cities, do not main
tain night schools, which are the only kind
suited to the average immigrant, since he
has TO earn his bread by day.
In one of the classes maintained for
immigrants I'm New York, twenty-five

lacking New Fields Continually.
The Y. NJ. c. A. is not only engaging in
settlement work; IL is entering the social
welfare and Industrial betterment fields,
Its plans in this direction are ambitious,
The country has something like -four
million men working in its mines, quarries,
lumber camps and mills OF various sorts,
and IL is the aim of the Y. Nj. G. a. IL
organize these men into associations.
This movement began in Cleveland with
shop bible meetings at the noon hour and
at all sorts of queer hours when the men
were at leisure. Meetings for the CleVe'
land street railway men are held at 4:&
o'clock in the morning.
Fifty-seven associations hav already
been formed among industrial men, and
employers are aiding I'm the movement,
thus following in the footsteps OF the rail
road officials, who, after the Railroad
Y. NJ. c. A. was proved to be a good thing
for the railroad from the business stand
point, nave been heavy contributors TO
this branch of the work. One hundred and
fourteen OF the 1874 railroad associations
have buildings, and about half the money
expended for these homes has been fur
nished by the railroads Interested. The
cotton mill operators of the Carolinas are
now entrusting the education of its oper-
atives, fresh from the mountain districts,
70 the Y. NJ. c. A: while one of the most
fiourishing industrial associations has a
headquarters that was given TO II, scot
free. by Senator Proctor, OF Vermont.
The attendance at the bible shop meet
ings in 1901 was T,00; last year II was
$50, 700. These figures are indicative of the
organizations growth all along thei line IN
recent years.
Not only are railroad corporations and
hard headed business men and manufac-
turers coworkers with the Y. NJ. c. A; the
United States government is a partner In
the movement as wen. This is a direct
result of the Y. NJ. c. A, work among the
Kingsbury County independent. (DeSmet, Kingsbury County, S.D.) 1894-1929, 1906-05-25

growth of this department is evidenced in
the specialties that II offers.
These number fifteen. There are fifteen
automobile schools. Several hundred bust
ness men are studying business economy
methods OF Y. NJ. c.. A. instructors A
course in investments is offered TO capital
lists. New ideas In publishing and printing
are made known to foremen and head
printers OF the big publishing houses. The
Massachusetts, Legislature has authorized
the Boston Y. NJ. c.. a. TO confer degrees
on the graduates OF It's Massachusetts, law
schools. Forestry classes are being started
up, and the Oregon associations are giving
instruction I'm poultry raising.
Bible education-the original Y. VI. C.. A.
educational iden-is being extended beyond
the members OF the organization. A de-
cided innovation Is the organization OF
bible classes among the member of the
college fraternities. Every frat at the
University OF Missouri has been organized
into a bible class. The movement Is meet
ing with great success at Harvard: 600 OF
Yale's students are studying the bible I'M
der Y. VI. G.. A. direction. The 720 student
associations throughout the country have
a total membership OF $1,000. an increase Of
10000 in five years.
1t is not too much to say that through
its educational department. the Y. NJ.

For the benefit OF immigrants who want

AMERICAS YIN. C. A.
LEADS THEM ALL

James Z. Sullivan, secretary OF the
A A. u. says that the Y. NJ. G., A,
has done more to purify sport in Amer
lea than any other one organization.
Whenever Mr.. Sullivan wantss handi-
cappers n others officials to act at
the meets of the A. A. T., he invaria-
bly, requests of the national training
secretary names of Y. NJ. G. A. men
who are qualified for the work. He re-
Gently appointed sixty Y. NJ. c. A. men
for the New York section OF the union.
The way in which the Y. NJ. c. A. is
continually charging its field is illus
trated in the development of the phys
zeal training department.
The first idea was to look after the
physical welfare of its members alone;
now il is ais looking after the phys
ical well being # the communities in
which the various associations are To-
Gated
In Grand Rapids the physical direc-
tor organized athletic clubs in the va
rious wards. induced the city To appro-
pirate a sum OF money for the pur-
chase of prizes, and the contests which
ensEed were so successful and aroused
such widespread interest that the al
dermen voted money for the purchase
and fitting up Of three Fairgrounds.

policemen; in many towns recreation
centers are maintained by the Y. NJ.
c. A. for the use of all who are to
enter the gates.
The latest scheme of the department
is to send out scientific yet popular ar
ticles on physical training for whole
sale consumption. The philosophy back
of this scheme is that the more per-
sons aroused to the need of properly
caring for the body, the greater will
be the opportunity for the development
of the spiritual in the country.
How the Mind Is Cared For.
While the educational idea originated
In England. ii owes it's development and
present status to American efforts.
The first educational work in this coun-
try was done in 1866 In the Twenty-third
street branch Of the New York association.
Peculiarly enough, three or four classes
were instructed in Greek and Latin. Now
almost anything that will aid a man TO
earn a livelihood can be studied In the
Y. NJ. c. A. classes and schools. This

British in origin, the real home of the
Y. NJ. c.. A. is now North America, as
represented by this country and Can
ada. In membership, property and
ideas, the Y. M. c. A. of North Ameri-
ca is acknowledged by the other
branches to lead the world. and it's
methods are being so steadily adopted
elsewhere that the time does not seem
to be far distant when the interna-
tional organization will be thoroughly
Americanized
TIL American Y. VI. G. A. has 315, 900
members; all the rest of the world
$4,000 less. The American membership
is sufficient to make a city the size OF
Cleveland. the seventh in population in
this country. 1t would take seven
Peorias, or a Pittsburg, with enough
young men left over for Il Savannah,
Ga. Let each man stretch out his arms
TO their full length, and have his fin
gers touching the tips of other fingers
on either side of him, and the line thus
made would reach from New York TO
Buffalo, or almost to Pittsburg, or a
hundred miles past Portland. Me-, or
eighty miles to the south of Richmond,
Va.
Last years expenditures in North
America were sufficient to make sew
enty persons ach worth the comfort
able fortune of $500, 900. If it's property
Eere TO be distributed in one hundred
fnousand dollar lots, there would be
portions for 300 persons.
One-fourth of the $500 associations
are in North America. The combined
libraries of these 1000 associations
would make two libraries as large as
the Yale and Cornell Libraries. which
combined top 500, 900 volumes.
The number of students in Yale, Har-
ward, Cornell, Pennsylvania, Chicago
Leland Stanford, Michigan, Princeton
and Columbia is so, 528. In the evening
educational classes OF our Y. NJ. G. A.
are nearly 80, 900 n Jamestown,

Its 100, 900 men and boys I'm its 500 odd

and eight thousand bluejackets every
month allot TO the Y. NJ. c. A. a portion
of their pay, and his is turned over 10 tho
organization by the government. Then
the Y. NJ. -. A. sends the money to the
persons designated, or sees that the In
stallments are kept up on homes and real
estate, or invests il or old il, as per
directions OF the men.
The Y. NJ. G. A. is not n mission 10 the
army and navy: ii is an integral part or
the army and navy. This is it's status. he
cause the government has recognized its
efficient work in keeping up the morale OF
the men.
Chief Supporter of Mission Movement.
The American Y. NJ, G, A. is the chief
support of the movement in the so called
mission lands; this is conceded by the
European branches. The methods that
are applied here are used abroad. In
! Korea, for the first time in that nations
history, the men are being taught the
value Of physical training. with the result
that the Korean man is fast losing his de-
sire 10 possess long finger nails aud hands
that are soft and feminine, For a Korean
to sweat is no longe TO be dtsgraCed.
All this and more the American branch
of the Y. NJ. G. A. has accomplished since
1851, the year Of it's founding in Montreal
and Boston. A little incident of the Y. NJ.
c.. A. work with the japanese army In
Manchuria may perhaps give an insight
into the methods by which the organiZa-
ton has won such wide favor.
One OF the secretaries thoughfully In
ciuded in his equipment a Yankee hair
clipper. He offered TO bare the long, UNI
attended polls of as many Japs as cared TO
undergo the operation. From the day OF
this declaration he was i'm high favor; on
one day he clipped the heads OF ninety
soldiers; and IL is a peculiar fact that after
the clipper was introduced to the army
the rank and file evinced a keener interest
h before in the Y. NJ. G, A. 1t had done
something of practical benefit to the men.
The associations OF the United States
and Canada present the picture Of a pow
erful, active and complete organization"
said the Worlds Committee, at the London
conference In 1894. 'They are well at the
head OF the whole work, and their inhu-
ence is felt far beyond the American con-
tiuent."
That was said eleven years ago. What
would the same men say now of the
American branch OF the movement?
