An APPEAL FOR 4
I. N. 6. 4.

There is nothing more certain IN
life than the fact that success de
ponds upon the ability to do things
The young man who is weak physic-
ally, who lacks education, who has
damaged his reputation by an act
of folly or dishonesty, is as badly
hampered in the race for success as
one legged man would be in foot
race This is the statement made
by F. A. Scott, secretary of Cleve-
land, O., Chamber of Commerce.
There is nothing which can bring
this success to the young man OF
Wenatchee but the Young Mems
Christian Association. The church
gives the young man five hours out
of the week of an available 112
hours, or just AZ per cent of the
time is given to the young man for
his moral training. Then for the
other 107 hours the doors of the
church are bolted and barred against
the young man and he is forced to
seek the place of amusement, the
pool room or theatre. to help him to
spend a few hours which hang heavi-
ly upon his shoulders, Tonight as
you read this stop and think that
there are, probably, $50 to 200 We
natchee young men killing time in
the amusement parlors." Probably
80 per cent of the young men Of this
city merely exist at boarding house
and are anxiously awaiting the OPP
portunity which will give them re-
lease from their irksome abodes.
What could better satisfy these
young men than the reading room
and gymnasium of the Y. M. c. A?
The boys, part of them, are receiv-
ing an education in the public
schools, but what is being done for
the young man who has not received
an education? What is being done
for the young man, above the high
school age. who has reached a cer-
tain standard of education to main
tain that standard or to rise above
it? What is being done in Wenat-
chez to aid the self made young man
to rise little higher? What are We
doing to develop strong young men
who have the physical power to I'M
dergo a severe strain of business If
such should be necessary? Is the
young man to drudge all day at his
books or in the Office and then ne
elect the physical self in the seeking
of the amusements, or is it possible
to combine the amusements AMI
physical training in the gymnasium
Of the Y. M. C. A? All of these ques-
lions and more must be answered by
the citizens of Wenatchee soon. or
we shall have a problem of the train
ing of the efficient young man.
We appeal to you, citizens of We
natchee. asking you to help us young
men to prepare ourselves for the po-
sitions which you are creating for
us. We ask you to help us by means
Of a Y. M. c. A., an organization
where we can develop the moral.
mental and physical man. We ap-
peal to you only for that which our
sister cities have already given to-
their young men. You will find r
NJ. C. A. organizations in North
Yakima, Walla Walla, Vancouver,
Hoquian1 and other cities which wei
claim are, by no means, our super
ors. In the world of business the
citizens of Wenatchee will not recog-
nize these afore mentioned cities as
our betters; why then should we let
hem gradually creep ahead of US
md train their young men for more
efficient service.
