|YOUNG BUSINESS MEMS
SUNDAY SCHOOL CLASS

On last Wednesday evening a
large number OF young men assem-
bled at the home of Mr.. and Mrs. C.
W. Van Patten on Hazel avenue In
response to invitations issued to a
stag party and incidentally to dis
cuss the possibility Of organizing a
class at the First u. E. church to be
confined to young business men. At
ter an interesting program. arranged
for the entertainment had been given.
followed by delightful refreshments,
the proposition was explained by Mr..
Van Patten and E. w. Thomas. the
I principal promoters of the plan.
1t was explained that in order to in
terest the young men OF this class
in the Sunday. school 1t was neces-
sary to effect an organization which
would include only men limited
with some business occupation. thus
creating a congenial atmosphere and
feeling OF good fellowship. The sue
cess of other classes of this kind was
pointed out, In most cases exerting
stronger influence over young men
than was possible through any other
means.
A teacher capable of making IL in
teresting and giving them something
out Of he ordinary would be chosen
by the vote OF the class, as would
also an executive board for the man
agement OF the class, in the same
manner The social side OF the prop
osition would be made one OF the
strongest features. the class meeting
once n month or oftener for a social
and business session In brief. ev-
erything would be done to make =;
thoroughly congenial in every way
In a manner that should appeal to the
tastes of young men.
At this first meeting 1t was hoped
only to obtain the sentiments of the
young men regarding the plan and ar
range the plans for the organization
II possible at later date. but after
giving the matter over to them for
discussion the proposition was met
with such hearty enthusiasm and ap-
provai that a permanent organization
was at once effected.
An executive board was nominated
and voted on by ballot Those elect
ed were. C. W. Van Patten. president;
r. NJ. Boyle. vice president; Harry w
Coombs, secretary and Robert Pryor
treasurer.
The class has an initial member

On account of the nature OF this
Organization 1t is expected that the
membership will eventually exceed
that OF any other class heretofore or
ganized in Canon City. and the good
to be created through its influence un-
paralleled.
The first assemblage Of the class
had been arranged for yesterday. but
on account of the Sunday school clos
ing by the board of health. on account
OF measles. 1t has been temporarily
postponed.
A business meeting of the class Will
be called for sometime this week.
