Y.M.C.A. TO GO UP THREE STORIES
business Men Pledge Aid In Raising
the Funds.

Prospects that the Young Mems Chris
tian association building at the corner OF
First avenue and South Seventh, will be
completed without lessening the size OF the
structure as originally planned are now
bright. For a while it looked as If lack OF
funds would necessitate cutting off the
third story. containing the dormitories, but
at a meeting of representative business
men held yesterday noon at the Grand hotel
around the luncheon table, 1t was the
unanimous opinion that the building should
be completed as originally planned. The
men present promised their assistance In
raising the money necessary to complete
the building.
Thirty representative business and pro-
f~essional men were present at the meeting,
which had been arranged for the express
purpose Of discussing the situation. b. c.
Wade, general secretary of the Omaha
Young Mems Christian association, was
present by invitation, and he not only
offered some most valuable suggestions. but
urged the business men OF the city to
take hold of the matter with a vim and
see to It that the association. building here
did not suffer fofA1ack OF funds to com
plete it as originally planned. This
money ought 70 be raised without any
difficulty" said Mr.. Wade. Every dollar
you business men put into 1t will come back
to you many times over. 1t is a good In
vestment. In fact, 1 know OF no better in
vestment."
Mr.. wade's remarks aroused the en-
thusiasm OF the men present and they one
and all declared they would do everything
in their power to raise the money needed.
Mr.. Wade was followed by j. A. Goodel
Of Des Moines, extension work secretary OF
Iowa State Young Mems Christian assocla-
ton. Evangelist Charles Cullen Smith also
addressed the gathering along the same
lines as Messrs Wade and Goodell.

DO MORE

The man who makes the best progress
is the man who does more than he is
told. Some men think they have done
their full duty when they perform certain
routine work. They consider that they
are being paid fifteen dollars week for
fifteen dollars worth of work-and they
measure out the correct amount with as
much care as the grocer measures out
rice, putting in and taking out few
grains until the scales balances.
But the progressive man goes about his
work with the spirit OF the athlete. The
satisfaction of accomplishing feat, and
the knowledge that with each trial more
skill is developed, form one of the best
incentives to good work. The athlete
does not confne his practice to certain
number of runs and jumps, but keeps at
it until he has achieved some greater de-
gree of skill than he ever had before. He
delights in attempting harder and harder
feats because it means more and more
skill.
Thus does the truly progressive man
love his work. He does not consider
that he is working merely for his salary,
nor for the house, but for himself-for
the development of his individual capac.
ity and skill. He delVes into things not
required OF him, because he wants to gain
power to do more-because that is the
normal impetus of progressive mind.
