GYMNASIUM BOOSTERS
Prominent Business and Professional
Men Testify to the Value Of the Ply
steal Recreation That They Are Re-
ceivinq at the r. r. Y. M. C.

Increasing interest is being taken in
the gymnasium work under the direct
ion of the Physical Director Schroeder
in the r. r. Y. NJ. c. gymnasium. 1t is
a noticeable fact that every business
man who permits himself to put on
gymnasium shoes and go in with the
class once is usually regular MEM
Der thereafter. The classes are con-
Quoted every Tuesday and Friday at D
o'clock. After an hour in the gymna-
Stun the men enjoy the shower and
Tuesday and Friday evening at $50 by
request of many members OF
the class. Next Tuesday even
ing Just before the Searchlight
club, will be a good time for new mesi
to ioin. Note what some of the menu
bers say about it:
"The business mems gymnasium
class at the Y. NJ. c. a. is the best
kind of a place in which to forget bus
mess and become a rollcking boy
again. Observation-Disclosures Elmer l.. Cot

81 wish to advise that feel that the
gymnasium work that l am getting
under the direction of Mr. Schroeder
in the business mems class has been
of great benefit to me physically ana
/ shall endeavor to be on hand for all
the classes."-C. c. st. Clair
II appreciate the business mems
gymnasium class not alone on account
of the pleasure there is in the work
itself but more especially the direct
benefit physically received."-C c.
Urine.
II am pleased to say that no business
man can afford to neglect the oppor-
tunity of the business mems gym class
for physical benefit. Mr. Schroeder is
the best physical director it has ever
been my pleasure to meet and most
enthusiastic worker Last, but not
least, the spirit of good fellowship ana
the ample amount of good eating alone
justify the time and expense."-C. H.
E. Boardman.
II have found the Y. M. G. A. gym
class very enjoyable and beneficial If
you are not a regular member, one
evening spent with us will seal your
fate. Skeptics speciality. All we ask
is that you have nerve enough to be
shown."-R. w. McCreery.
IT am sure if the bust
ness and professional men of
Marshalltown realized the benefit to
their health that would result from
systematic regular exercise in the
gymnasium under the direction of our
excellent physical director, Mr.. Schroe-
der, and the perfect bath to be enjoyed
afterwards, our classes would be so
much enlarged that Mr.. Schroeder
would be compelled to organize new
classes and work overtime. l.. f.
Kellogg.
Every man who is confined closely
to his business, needs just the kind OF
exercise he receives at the Y. M. Z. A.
gym. 1t cheers him up mentally and
physically, takes the cobwebs out OF
his mind and the kinks out Of his
muscles.'-L. c. Norris.
Il would rather attend the Y. M. c.
A. business mems gym class than go
a fishing The work or play as it may
be termed, has been of 81 at benefit
1 know fifty business men in Mar
shalltown who need just this kind of
recreation and would belong if they
would visit you just one Tuesday or
Friday evening."-Edwin S. Ketchum.
