BY j reason OF the heavy rains yester-.
day afternoon. the crowd that turned out
for the meeting 81 the Z. NJ G. ~ was 'al'
rather small. Though, however, there
we're only a few present, the meeting
was exceedingly y interesting. and the four
speeches by four young men were heard
with the closest attention.
8 It Is the plan now, d uring the summer

conducted under the auspices OF the 3.
NJ. c. a., to be carried on and addressed
by the young men themselves, the time
limit for each speaker being seven min
utes. This manner OF procedure Is cali
culated to increase the general nterest
among the young men, and to show them
that some OF the responsibility OF pro-
Tossing religion and faith and Of setting
q worthy example rest as much upon
their shoulders as upon the men who
usually address them.
The general subject yesterday after
