INACCURATE CAMPAIGN TO RAISE
$4,000 TO MODERNIzE Y. N. c. A.

are far too small and too poorly ar
ranged to accommodate the large
membership and immediate action was
deemed imperative. If the Y. M. c.
A. is to do It's part in growing Marion,
the building must be fitted to its needs.
1t is probable that no movement
heretofore commenced here, has been
so carefully mapped out beforehand as
| this. Every detail has been worked
out and members of each one of the
ten teams. have been assigned to coll
upon certain individuals. Having
charge of the campaign in addition to
Mr.. Van Scotch and DR.. Sawyer, there
Is an executive committee composed of
George ID. Copeland. John Waddell,
O. S. Rapp, f.. X. Uhler, George b.
Christian. Dr. Sawyer Is chairman OF
this committee Fred Il. CUTLERY is
chairman of the working committees
of 100 members.
During the seven working days that
this campaign will be in force, the
members of the teams will devote
practically al of their time to solocit
ing donations.
Watch the Big Clock.
Each day at the noon hour the
workers will assemble at the Y. NJ.
G. A. for dinner i'm the gymnasium and
reports of the progress will be made.
A large clock, illuminated by cleo
tricity. will be placed on the south
portico of the court house. At one
o'clock each afternoon the indicator
on this clock Will be moved and Will
record the progress made by the COM
mittees i'm their efforts to raise $780,
000 to give Marion a modern Y. NJ. c.
A.
Headquarters of the committees Will
be at the Y. NJ. G.. A. building.
special telephone will be Installed
there and the number will be $4,000
The slogan of the workers in this cam
paign will be $4,000 or bust" and
| 1t is said without hesitation that there
will be no busting.
That Marion will come to the front
and literally donate to this worthy
| cause, is confidently expected. Cam
paigns of this nature have been waged
all over the state and many cities
smaller than Marion have donated
more for the work. Here is an OPP
portunity to demonstrate that the old
Marion spirits disappearance Is all d
myth and that the enthusiasm for a
greater Marion still burns brightly in
every Marionite.
At tonight's banquet, S. F. Melon
old, of Ashtabula, senator elect from
| Ashtabula county, will be one of the
speakers. MIR. Mcdonald will tell how
the committe, of which he was chair
man, raised $6S,000 to improve tho
association building at Ashtabula. BY
ron j. Balliett, of Mansfield, head OF
the committee which raised over $42,-
900 there, will also address the gath
ering
| At a meeting of the local minister
ial association today Mr.. Van Scoten
and DR. G. II. Sawyer suggested to the
ministers that the work of raising thi'
money for the association hight be as
sisted by having Y. NJ. c. A. speakers
| talk in the local pulpits next sunday
| It Is probable that numerous speakers
| will be announced for addresses i'm the
| church next Sunday, not to collect
| funds or ask donations, but to explain
more fully the place of the Y. M. Z.
| A. in a city's work and the good ac-
oomplished for the young and old.
