Y. M. c. A. NOTES.
Big Campaign On.

At the close of luncheon and
conference of the officers and mem
bers of the Y. M. G. A. at 8:15 Fri
day of this week a big campaign is
going to be launched to quickly en-
large the membership and work.
The past year has seen some not
able advances in the work and scope
of /. the institution but much greater
achievements are certa My possible
as there are still many boys and
men to be brought within the ben
efits of the Association. To boys
over IL and to men who aspire to
physical vigor and sound health,
clear minds, and the attainment Of
high ideals the Association has a
multitude Of things to offer. These
all are offered at considerably low
err than actual cost and may be paid
for on the most reasonable terms.
During this campaign it is entire
ly within the, realm OF possibility to
raise the standing Of the Payette
Y. M. C. A. to first place among
the Association OF North America and
the world in towns the size of
ours9 To plan campaign that shall
bring forth such a result is the pur-
pose of the luncheon and conference
Friday night. Plans will be consid-
ered a policy outlined. opposing

Consideration of what is included
in these memberships reveals the
fact that these rates are exceedinly
low-the Association was founded
not for what it might get but for
what it might give.
1t hardly need be said that all
boys and men who are membe.s and
all other boys and men who want
to see the Association forge ahead
will be welcomed at Friday even
ing's meeting. There will be some
thing interesting in the way of a
program and the stakes will be st

pears on more than three Of the

of the basis for the conviction that
it is possible this year to make the
Payette Association the very first in
existence for it's class.

Friday evening of this week to in
crease the membership of the Y. M.
C. A The membership of this in
stitution has increased the past year
from 21S to 300 but the feeling ex-
lists that it should be much greater
than this. Elsewhere we publish an
outline of what the campaign will be
like and hope all interested will
help make it success. The Y. M.
G. A. is one of Payette's best NOR
al assets and deserves the support
of all right thinking people. Com
pared with the advantages to be
derived from membership the fee
is very small and the boys fee is
exceptionally SO. The young man
or boy taking advantages of what the
y M. c. A. has to offer is bound to
be broader, better citizen in ev-
cry respect All activities of the
association lead toward better no.-
ais and as that is the Underlying
principle of efficiency one can east
ly see the great advantages from a
business standpoint of this instftu
ton. The boy or young man who
spends his spare time at the Y. M.
c.. A. is certainly putting it to pro-
C. A. is certainly putting it to
profitable use besides enjoying it.
Every right thinking man and wo
nan in Payette should see to it that
this campaign for membership is
successful.

The Death Pain,

A reporter asked well known sur
geon whether his experience as med
zeal man had led him to believe that
death is painless.
Speaking generally" he said. "the
death agony is very rarely attended
by pain, because the system is always
prepared for death by weakening OF
the vital forces, by the circulation OF
impure blood through the brain and by
the obtunding of the nerves. OF course
some. people have more pain than
others, and this is very largely deter
miued by temperament A nervous
mar-all other things being equal
suffers more pain than a man who
has enjoyed ROBUST health, because
the nervous mans sensibiiities are
stronger, but tbs pain of death is more
In the anticipation Of it than in the
reality. Men OF educa ton face death
with greater fortitude than men who
are not educated. Women are almost
always pluckier than men. they en-
dure pain much better. LONDON

these huge masses of stone are placed

They are simply caves in stone, arti-

uncanny to reflect that In one of those
caves, scintillating with the highest
resources of science, men stand over

movement and position of the ships of

gunners in the open such instructions
for pointing their guns as enable them

Where We Aim,

William Dean Howells in one of his
talks about literature said: Good lit
erature Is always condemned on its first
appearance. That is because. being
original. il Is new and strange. Shell
ley's work was bitterly condemned at
first. So was Coleridee's. SO was Words
worth's. SO was Stephen Cranes"
Mr. Howells paused. then added i'm
presslvely. "Stones are only thrown at
those trees which are heavy with
fruit"
