WILL BUSINESS men !
PERMIT A SACRIFICE


At a meeting OF the Board OF Dr.
rectors OF the Young Mems Christian
Association, held Friday night, q com
mittee was appointed to arrange for
q campaign TO raise sufficient funds
to pay the Indebtedness OF the asso-
citation. -
Now The plain facts are simply us
follows: Some IL years ago the peO-
pie OF Martinsburg and Berkeley
unity decided that they wanted
Young Mems Christian Association
Men of experience were secured to
conduct a campaign for the above
purpose which resulted in subscrip-
tons amounting to over $4,000, from
which the present buildings, grounds
and equipment were turned over to a.
board OF trustees with a debt OF fully
$4,000. OF this amount $4,000 was
secured by mortgage. After 10 years
experience in operating the above as
ISOLATION the indebtedness has in
creased to $1,000. which amounts to
just about the interest on the original
debt.
Condenislng the whole thing in
nut shell, we are simply asking the
people TO pay the above $4,000 and
by so doing secure the above outfit
for the association free from all in
cumbrance, which IL built and equip
ped at this time would cost fully $780,
900. We cannot for one moment think
that the business men of Martinsburg
and Berkeley county possessing the
business sagacity that they do, would
forfeit the opportunity of securing the
above institution at this time.
Very respectfully,
