In limited way educational classes
in electricity, mechanical drawing
penmanship and music were started
Practical talks on law. medicine, sci

sues, suggested the educational work
for the new building.
The movement for the third home
began at a gospel service held at Rey-
noIds in January. 1887. by some of the
association men. Two little girls,
Arna Stewart and Libbie Schoon-
maker. were interested in pictures
shown of Y. NJ. C. A. buildings and
gave so cents each without any solici-
tation Ito put up a new building in
Rock Island" for young men. Later a
like amount was given by Louis Bow
man. That $3.50 was the nucleus of
the fund which gave the association
its present vacated property al Nine
teenth street and Third avenue and
interested over 700 contributors for
the new and old projects
Sight Was Eyesore.
The lot chosen for the building was
a frog pond and an eyesore to the
city. The purchase was unpopular in
the eyes of many. II was chosen
from % different sites.
The building committee was COM
posed OF Chairman A. NJ. Blakesley,

The lot was purchased in August of
1888. the corner store was laid June
20. 1890. and the building completed
Jan. l. 1894. The lot, building and
furnishings cost the association SAL

Struggle Was Hard.
Changes in the original plans and a
shrinkage of $4,000 in subscriptions
left the association a debt OF $4,000,
which finally grew to $4,000. For
10 years the association struggled
with interest charges until one morn
ing a woman friend offered 81 900 If
sufficient money were raised to clean
the debt by Dec. 81. The condition
was met at noon Dec. 81.
The vacated home at Nineteenth and
Third avenue was recently sold to the
Rock Island Electric Construction
company for $4,000. and is now be-
ing remodeled preparatory to covering
the exterior with stucco preparatory
to occupancy by that corporation.
