ARMY Y, M. G. A. NOTES.

Nov. 10th Lieut.. Gregory spoke to the
men at Army Y. M. G. A., 10th and
Park, at .. m. The men present were
pleased with the address, because 1t
dealt with facts that we must face IN
the coming days. This is the time that
we should deal in stubborn facts and
tell the masses what is needed to be
done. Each one Of us as individuals
should make ourselves responsible for
the putting into practice the things we
Lear and then act as missionaries TO
take this truth to others. The time for
talk and selfish motives has long passed.
Nothing but actual work from true
and unselfish' motive will avail us any
thing as a race.
Sunday the 18th we are to have an
other treat from w. O. Payne, editor
of the Forum of this city, and is said to
be one Of the best friends of the race.
Let us show how much we appreciate
these men who come to us to help and
cheer us on the road to success.
We still hold our Bible class on
Thursday evening from to 9. This
message is from the class. Come with
MS and we will do you good.
