MUCH WORK DONE
ON ''Y" BUILDING
Past Week Has Been One of
Real Progress on the New
Structure.

The past week has been a period
of real progress on the Y. NJ. c. A.
new building. During the week, the
walls have been carried up to the sec.
ond floor level, and most of the forms
have been built for the concrete and
tile work TO be done this week on the
second floor
By the end of the. present week, the
pouring of concrete on the second
floor should be we'll along, while the
gymnasium walls will probably be up
to the roof level. At the present rate
Of progress, there is no reason why
the whole building should not be
ready for the roof some time in, July,
which will be indeed notable success
in pushing the contract. Contractor
Larkin is sparing no pains in his ef-
fort to complete the building on sched-
ule time, and it is due to his energy
that such good progress is being
made.
AS the big building rises into shape,
people are just beginning to get an
idea of the magnitude of the project
1t is probable that most of those who
helped last spring to raise the money
had very little conception of how big
thing they were doing, and even yet
it is hard for most people to realize
the greatness of the building that
they have made possible. building

Women Gamble for Hiah Stakes.

Many women are gamblers for very
high stakes. They stake their health
and good looks upon everything work
ing out all right when attacked by
those ailments which their sex alone
are called upon to suffer.
The only excuse can be ignorance
of the dangerous consequences or an
aversion to undergo medical examin-

recourse to Lydia E. Pinkham's Veg

years has been curing American wom-

BISHOP MCDOWELL TALKS
OF CHRISTIAN EDUCATION

Bishop Edward F. Mcdowell of Chi
cago addressed a large audience at
the First Methodist church yesterday
evening on Christian Education"
Bishop Mcdowell is president of the
branch OF education in the Methodist
schools of Illinois and it was in the
interest Of these schools that he
spoke. He laid special emphasis on
the value of an education received in
a Christian college and especially in
the school of the denomination which
the student processes. The associa-
lions formed by the student with 9TH
ers of the same denomination are of
inestimable value in after years and
contribute greatly to the profit of an
education. He illustrated with many
examples from his own Hfe's expert
ence and the sermon was one of the
finest and of greatest value on the
subject ever delivered at the church.
In the evening Dr. ]. C. Nate of
Bloomington, secretary of the For
ward Educational movement of the
Methodist church for Central Illinois,
delivered a splendid sermon also on
Christian education and its value. Dr.
Agnew Of Hedding college was to
have been the speaker of the evening
but il was found necessary to alter his
plans and he spoke in Geneseo in.

| Sunday school in the morning and
