SON 1t will be remembered that
something like a year ago Mr. Mar
crm was caught under a fall of slate
in coal mine and very badly mash
ed, from which he suffered very
much until the end came.

Mr.. Frank Fisher returned Wed
nesday mornino from Chicago where
he has been attending the great Y.
M.C.A. convention for railroad men.
He reports a great time, no doubt
the best in the history of the Asso-
citation.
Work on the chapel building and
school house is progressing very
nicely. The buildings are taking or
shape. The work would progress
faster but for the inability to get
the lumber on the ground, as then
is such demand for material at the
present time.
The new culNert at the mouth of
Culross Hollow is completed and IS
a piece of work that the East End
may we'll be proud of.
We are hoping in the near future
TO have on arc light near the Chapel
and school building, as it is needed
very much. At the present time we
only have a small incandescent light
which is hardly sufficient. Our peo-
pie often comment on what a nice
thing it would be to have about three
lights along near the railroad be-
tween East and West Williamson,
the only walk way we have to get
down town at night. The travel
would be much greater If the dang
ers of the darkness were removed
We hope to see it come in the near
future.
Mr. E. G. Carnes, our new secretary,
is getting climated and liFes his new
field Of labor very much. He is be-
coming very popular with those he
comes in contact with, and bright
prosperous future is predicted for
the Y M. G. A. All the regular SER
vices as usual Every one invited
