WORK OF Y.M.C.A.
 NIGHT SCHOOL
Group System Will be Used Again This
 Year - Applications Received.

The present outlook at the Y. M. c. A. night school points to the greatest year in it's history. On the success full work of last year will be built even stronger and more valuable line of courses and educational effort. Last year sixteen factories sent ap- prentice boys to the day school, more will be added to that list this season, and several of the factories stand ready to help bear the expense of their men and boys in the night school.
 The small group policy which proved tinued. This enables the instructor to give every man the individual help that is needed, and give special work if the progress of the men allow it.
 In place of the general opening which has called all the men interest ed in the work of the night school to- gether on one night, the plan this year men for private interviews with the educational men at the association to arrange together for the courses desir- ed and give such advice as the men may wish. These interviews are now going on each evening, and men who want to start in on some course should make arrangements to see either MT. Holmes or MT. Brodhead as soon as they possibly can.
 Groups will commence for men inter- ested in mechanical lines, plumbing, sheet metal work, woodworking, sales r1lanship. office preparation, etc.. as soon as enough men are enrolled to fill the groups, and this will be continued as long as the demand lasts or there is room in the building for more groups. The first group will probably open next week.
