MANY SLEEP IN
Y.M.C.A. ROOMS
MEMBERS MAY RESIDE IN THE
BUILDING
VACANCIES EXIST FOR SEVERAL
MORE LoDGERs
Young Men Joining Association Privi-
legged to Eat, Sleep and Lounge In
Headquarters, Beside Using
Gymnasium

One of the most successful features
of the work of the Young Mems Chris
tian association is that of its pro-
vision of sleeping rooms for its mem
bers. In the new building are ITO fur
nished airy, first-class up-to-date sleep
ing rooms, which have been in use
since the first of September, 1908. AS
early as the middle of August the
young men began. coming in to make
their selections and reservations, and
in about a month after the opening of
the building on the 1st of September
all of the rooms were occupied, While
quite lengthy waiting list was being
carried of men desiring to secure
rooms there.
The splendid accommodations of
these rooms, a great number of which
are sunny and all of which either have
windows opening on the outside of the
building or else on it's large open
courts, together with the splendid ac-
commodations of gymnasium, baths
and swimming pool, make it the most
delightful home for young men away
from their families to be found in the
city. There is always a large, conge-
nial crowd of fellows to chum together,
ana IIl6 yOuuS lldu llCfCT ihIAS III
plenty of company for any legitimate
pleasure or pastime.
Akin to College Life
In addition to the advantages men
toned above, he has the advantage of
entering any one of more than forty
different courses of study in the night
school or day school. Life in the as
sociation building is indeed very close
ly akin to college life for the young
man who wishes to benefit himself for
life and its arduous duties.
These rooms are rented to members
only as permanent tenants, though any
one not member may secure a room
for a few days as a transient without
joining the association. Only the gem
eral membership is required to take a
room in the building, while the room
carries with 1t the gymnasium, baths
and swimming pool tuitions.
Up to the LIST of May it was practi-
cally impossible to secure room in
the building without waiting turn, as
they were always full to overflowing
and a long waiting list signed up. But
since the 1st of May a great many
young men have changed places, either
going to the beach or away on their
vacations, or else have left the city
permanently; hence there are always
a few available rooms to be had.
though the number of vacant rooms
still is small
A regular restaurant is maintained
on the ninth floor of the building in
connection with its roof garden for
the accommodation of the young men
and their friends. This is perhaps the
ightest, airiest and most comfortable
dining room in the city for hot weather
and young men may take their friends,
either women or men. there for any
of their meals during the day-break-
fast, lunch or dinner.

Liquor License Revoked

The restaurant liquor license held by
Herman Wysser at 5O21k West Sixth
street, was revoked by the police com
mission last night because of violation
of the liquor ordinance. Evidence was
introduced to show that Wysser served
liquors in small quantities and without
meals.
He has a retail saloon license in the
room adjoining his restaurant and de-
clared that he secured the small drinks
from the saloon by a connecting hole
in the wall. The commission declared
this clear violation of the ordinance
and revoked his permit.
