The 7. NJ. C. A.

Permanent Steps were taken
Saturday night at the high school
building in the matter of a 4ourg
Mems Christian Association at this
place.
The meeting was we'll attended
and all present heartily endorsed
the movement.
r. A. Jones was elected present,
Ebert Gum, Secretary, and A. P.
Gum, treasurer. The question Of
a meeting-place was discussed,
there being two or three available
rooms, and reasonably suitable.
This matter was left in the hands
of q committee, as was also the
necessary work of completing the
organization, putting it in harmony
with, and making it legally part
of the great Y. M G. A. body.
This important move on the part
of the young men of the town and
community is the outgrowth of the
great religious awakening that came
to the town early in the year, and
bespeaks most gratifying sincerity
and earnestness.
There is no reason why such an
organization cannot be SUCCESSFULLY
carried on in a village like Monte
rev, and at this time when a fer
vent moral atmosphere pervades-
the character and latitude" of the
diversions and furnishings are al
most sure to be praverfully and
carefully determined.
Every thoughtful citizen should
cooperate with the young people,
not only in this particular move
ment, but along all lines that tend
to cultivate and develop better
manhood and christian character.
