-Four Minute Talks
By WILLIAM H. BAwDEN
b Y. M. c. A.

There Is no general organization in
our city that more deserves the sup
port OF the citizens than the Young
Mems Christian Association, and as
1t starts out on its annual drive for
new members and renewals everybody
should give its canvassers cordial
welcome n cooperation. AS one
reads the attractive folder recently
gotten up it Is with pride that the
varied activities during the past year
are noted. The Y. M. c. A. in Perth
Amboy Is rendering a service to its
men and boys that Is offered by no
other institution.
Perhaps you are e business man,
wearied with the cares and troubles
of every day business life, without
much animation at the close of a day,
and wanting nothing sc much as to
be permitted to spend a quiet evening
at home. But why not, twice a week
ION your way home, stop in at the Y
and join the activities Of the Business
Mems Gym Glass? Those lines Of care
will soon disappear from your face,
your step will have q ~springness that
will surprise your wife. and you will
not recognize yourself as the same
man who walked with so heavy a step
from your office or store.
If o are a young man, you need
the Y. M. G. A. no less, just to keep
you young. With those of your own
age you may take the harder exercise
and play the more active games. 1t
is not so much that you may attain
and maintain muscular strength-that
is the smallest part of such exercise.
But without sufficient and varied ex-
ercise the different organs of the body
will not function as fully as they
should, and 1t is this hat keeps off
old & with Its lessened activities.
OF course. If you feel proud Of your
muscular development, there Is open
to you the leaders class, wherein par
~tfcular attention is paid to that side
of gym life.
Then there is the boy. Say, par
ents, If you have q boy of twelve or
more who Is begging for a member
ship In the Y, for heavens sake loosen
lup, and make an investment Of a few
dollars in your boy. There is no
money that you will spend on him
that you will regret less. One can be
young but once, and your boy is @
bundle of nervous activities. Give
his a chance to coordinate himself,
to find himself amid an environment
in which you know he will be safe.
And say. If you haven't a boy of your
own, remember that there are a lot
of Riddles in our city whose parents
are literally unable to provide more
than the bare necessities of life for
ttheir children. Make an investment
In manhood.
have no Y. w. c. "A. But cheer up,
Alas for our women and girls, they
it is in the air, and some day will
find realization. Recall rhe vain at
tempts at first to start q Y. NJ. G. A.
Recall for how long It was simply a
matter of talk. Then something gal
vanized us into action, and the APP
parently impossible thing became an
accomplished fact. Keep on wishing,
and longing. and talking, and praying
and working!

have an elaborate dinner and it was
not expected and would have been

were set; it was a talk feast, pure
crops and the varying currents of
family life within radius of three or
four miles were of vital Importance
in those days. Nor were the current
affairs of state and nation forgotten
and while we did not always agree we
knew when to stop disagreeing after
gaining an addition to our small
stock of knowledge, from our neigh
boris viewpoint.
1t seems to me now, looking back
to those visits, that they were tre-
mendously worth while. We stopped
work entirely when we had visitors
of this sort, which was in itself
blessing We compared notes with
thinking people who faced the same
problems which we were facing. We
were kept informed in a sympathetic
way, with the needs and affairs of
the community. Perhaps we gossip
ed'' a little. Well, what then? Do
you know that the best thing you can
do or think may be made to mean
anything a warped and crooked mind
may choose to make ii mean? But no
one can afford to stop thinking and
talking AID doing their best on that
account.
Perhaps the Grange and farmers
clubs have become a satisfactory sub
stitute for this old-fashioned all-day
visiting between friends of years, But
do we not need both the public meet
ing and the private meeting? We
never can outgrow the need OF
friends, the true kind who stay ON
no matter what happens; and we can
no more have true friends without
aking time to be friendly than We can
have a crop of corn without taking
time 10 plant it, Besides we need to
cultivate the art OF visiting for our
ehildren's sake. We need 10 show
them what loyalty TO our friends
means and how to maintain it with
out break. II is so easy TO criticise
when we do not know, except by hear
say The French, who have taught
the world so much in the past four
years. have a saying like this: "To
know all is TO forgive ALL" We elders
know and the younger generation
needs TO know that one OF the truest
joys OF life comes from face-to-face
and heart-to-heart talks Of triad
friends. And visiting helps to make
friends
