Dickson. Andrews, Bierce, Barline
and Sabin.
A tentative organization was formed
and the following officers elected:
T. e. Yerxa, president; c. T. Clement
vice president; w. III. White, treas
urer; and an executive committee
composed of Levi Greer, A. G. An
drews, S. s. Lyon, H. G. Plumley and
J. J. Shotwell. These were the first
officers Of the present association.
Used Old Courthouse Building.
Even at this first meeting the mat
ter of erecting suitable building for
the Y. M. c. A. was taken up and it
was decided that it would be cheaper
to construct new building than to
rent suitable quarters for the organi-
cation. However this seems to have
been a rather premature decision for
at subsequent meeting 1t was decided
to purchase the old frame courthouse
which was being vacated by the coun-
ty at that time, and using 1t as an
association building.
This structure, which was of frame
throughout was bought and moved to
site given by the Northern Pacific
railroad on it's right of way across the
tracks from the old Headquarters ho-
tel. This hotel was situated on the
ground now occupied by the power
plant of the Union Light, Heat &
Power Co. This hotel was burned sew
eral years later.
1t is an interesting fact that this
first home of the Y. M. G. A. is still
in existence, being the Birchall flats
located on First avenue south be-
tween Seventh and Eighth streets. 1t
was purchased by the Y. M. G. A.
along in September of 1885 and dedi-
Gated on March 20.
The Secretaries of the Y. M. c. A.
1t was in this month that the first
general secretary was secured to car
ry on the work. At meeting on
Sept. 81, 1886 1t was voted to secure
the services of " H. Johnson as gen.
eral secretary and he was accordingly
| employed and remained in the service
until Jan. 1, 1888 when he was sue
ceeded by T. S. Lippy, who is now
one of the millionaire residents OF
| the northwest. Mr.. Lippy continued
the secretaryship until about Nov
| "a, 1890 when he resigned to go west
and was succeeded by s. B. Chase.
Mr. Chase remained in charge Of
the local association until about July
! Is, 1898 when he in turn succeeded
F. j. Hibbard. Mr.. Hubbard continued
the work of secretary until June 1
| 1895 when he resigned and was sue
ceeded by w. H. Day. General Sec
rotary Day continued in active work
| in the association until Sept. /, 1891
when he handed in his resignation
and was succeeded soon afterward by
Rev. John Orchard. Reverend Or

Erection Of Building.
The association held forth in the
old courthouse until in 1905 when
this structure had to be moved be-
cause Of improvements made in the
yards of the Northern Pacific and the
association was granted use Of the
basement of the Masonic temple by
the Scottish Rite. 1t remained here
until Jan. /, 1908. when the present
building was completed and made

AN UP-To-DATE DRUGGIST

says 1t is surprising how many old
fashioned remedies are being used, which
goes to show that it is hard to improve
some OF our grandmothers' old, tine-tried
remedies. For instance, for keeping the
hair dark, soft and glossy, nothing equal
ing our grandmothers' sage tea" has ever
been discovered. Although, by the addi-
tion Of sulphur and other ingredients, this
old-fashioned brew has been made more
effective as scalp tonic and color re-
storer. Nowadays when our hair comes
out or gets faded or gray, instead OF go
ing to the garden or garnet for herbs and
making the tea ourselves, we simply
