Honored Mr.. Miller.
In connection with the departure of
A. l.. Miller, late secretary of the Y.
c. A., work in the state, the state
committee held a meeting and unani-
mously passed the following memorial:
The state committe of the Young
Mems Christian association of North
Dakota publicly expresses its appre-
citation of the three years of faithful
service of the retiring state secretary,
A. L. Miller, who leaves North Dakota
to take up student work at the Uni
versity of Indiana.
We believe MI. Miller's efforts in
North Dakota, especially in student
work have been of the most far reach
ing influences for good in the state.
MI Nlll1NL ID Tic OILY u1du WIlO HAS
stayed by this work for over a year
and has done so in the face of great
sacrifices on his part. During the past
two years he has let pass several in
Viting opportunities purely out of his
devotion for the betterment of student
life in the state. His spirit has indeed
been genuinely missionary.
w believe the public will be
pleased to know that Mr.. Miller has
built up in the student field in North
Dakota a work that measures up with
the best organized state student work
to be found anywhere in the central
west, and this work should by all
means be continued and should receive
the support of every friend of young
men in the state.
Besides the successful work ac-
complished in u colleges and univer-
stiles he has been a prominent factor
in developing city and railroad associ-
alton work throughout the state.
The state committee congratulates
the University of Indiana in securing
Mr.. Miller and wishes him God speed
in this new field.
