Y,M c, A. NIGHT SCHOOL ATTRACTS
 BIG ATTENDANCE

W. Seymour Lacy, the General Sec retary of the Young Mems Christian Association, one evening last week went rbriskly into his office thinking he was going to have a splendid op- portunity to dispatch a lot of piled up work that night. He discovered his office full of people, and a half-laugh- ing, half-apologetic educational direct or apologiZing for intruding on his office with the unanswerable argu- ment that those people were earnestly seeking education and there wasn't an other room in the building that was not occupied. Secretary Lacy was greatly disappointed not to be able to accomplish what he had planned that night but he would not be the typical Y. M e. A. secretary if after all he wasn't tremendously pleased that the building was not nearly large enough for the earnest, ambitious young people whom his associates were attracting for the various actiVi- ties of the association.
 This leads up to a rather amazing and most interesting fact Over 1000 boys and young men in the City of Bridgeport are scattered around the offices, stores and industries who have been trained for their work in the workaday world by the night school of the Young Mems Christian AsS.,- citation. A few years ago Alexander Dumonkos, then a bright lad in the employ of one of our leading indus tries but now trusted emploSe of the United States Government in Wash ington, entered one of the night classes. Tn less than the number of weeks winch the class was to run this young man had become worth so much more him every week an increase of salary equal to the one-half entire years cost of his course.
 Graduates of the Y. M. c. A night school are, many of them, presiding at the head of their departments in some of the largest industries in this city. Not a few of these graduates are now the owners and managers of their own enterprises in our own city.
 If the added economic value. to the community, of these men, were conn., puted annually, the Young Mems Christian Association would at once stand out clearly as one of the great est wealth producing agencies in the City of Bridgeport
 Last year nearly 1000 students were enrolled in the various Y. M. c. A. ed ucational activities in the City of Bridgeport.

PRAISE WILSON FOR CLEARNESS
 OF HIS VISION

London, Feb. 13.-President Wilson stands head and shoulders above all others as the spokesman of the Allied peoples, in the opinion of the Man chester Guardian, mainly because he 1s able to keep firmly and constantly III view the reasons why America came into the war. The newspaper con trasts the presidents address to con gress with the official report on the outcome of the recent session or the supreme war council in Versailles ana instances the various times in which MT. Wilson has come forward to rem edy four shortcomings, take up dropped stitches and repair all too palpable lapses of our own and alhed diplomacy" and has done it with con- Spicuous and admirable effect.
 President Wilson, say the Guardian finds himself in substantial agree ment with Count Czernin, the Austro- Hungarian foreign minister, but the president criticism of Count Von Hertling, the German imperial chan cellor, frank as it is penetrating leaves him in doubt as to the attitude of the United States towards the methods he represents and the war aims he has fathered."
