d. w. Norris, Jr., of Marshalltown,
who was the leading man, in putting
across the big campaign in which
over $4,000 was raised for new
Y. NJ. C. A. building in his city, states
that the two principal reasons for big
subscriptions are as follows:
"First-We believe that the Y. Nj.
C. A. was doing practical and bust
nesslike work of applying Christian
ity in its helpfulness to men and that
is what appealed to us as business
men, because we saw in the institu'
Ition a work of efficiency.
"SecOnd-Everyone of us who had
prospered in this community felt that
we owed an obligation to the com
,munity's public institutions which
ought to be paid in some measure
whenever arpubiiC building or public
subscription was to be raised"
Mr.. Norris gave $500 to the Mar
shalltown fund and helped persuade
nine other. men to do the same. He
