the Y M. H. A. could not be given the
attention it deserved and desired. Good
quarters they had none and they were
forced to direct all their efforts from one
small room in the Talmud Torah. Then,
before long, the boys began to leave for
service
Yet, in spite of all this, the Y NJ H.
"A. has accomplished some wonderful
work. 1t has grown to a strong body
of 125 men. During these two years it
has taken an active interest in all COM
munity affairs. 1t has conducted various
classes such as AUGMENTATION classes,
History classes (both in English and
Jewish) Public Speaking, etc. 1t has
taken part in all War Drives, War Re-
liefs, Zionist Drives, Restoration Fund
Drives, etc. In addition to all this, So
of her young men went forth into vari.
Gus branches of the military service for
Uncle Sans cause, and even now two of
her boys are buried in French SOIL hav-
ing fallen bravely in action, so that
Democracy might triumph.
Truly wonderful record, and one that
any organization might envy. And yet
all this was accomplished under great
handicap. Isn't one tempted to ask
"How' much more could have been ac-
complished under favorable conditions?
What could have been done had they
sufficient members and proper facili-
ties?"
We are now out for both. We expect
in the next few weeks to have our quar-
ters enlarged and furnished to take care
of great number of additional young
men. And we want and must have the
young men. We have set aside the week
of May 1926 as membership Week" in
an effort to add $50 new members to our
list A thorough canvass of the Jewish
community will be made and all young
men who might be of help to the or
ganization or who might be helped by
it, will be asked to join. In the mean
time it is our purpose to bring the Y.
M. H. A. before you telling you all about
it and showing the people the necessity
of such an organization.

their answer. 1t put the Quietus
