Called "Crowning Glory"

The second criticism. Mr.. Daniels de-
clared, was that the Y. NJ. c. A. placed
religion to the fore in all it's activities
with the armed service.
THAT criticism is the GROWING glory
of the association" maintained the Sec
rotary, land when it does not merit this
criticism it will lose the dynamic force
which justifies it's existence. 1t is the
power of Christian faith and Christian
service which has made the Young
Mems Christian Association the great
est organized agency for young men in
the world today.
1.-THE nations, stumbling on the road
Of suspicion Of their allies and doubt
of the old order. are looking for a light

or disorder, in old or new political
creeds. They must look for the better
way to the gospel proclaimed 1000
years ago."
The association closed the business
sessions of it's fortieth annual con-
vention here today with the adoption
of the principles of the social creed
set forth by the Federal Council of
Churches of Christ and the inter-

Secretary Daniels Address.

The millions of young Americans in
uniform served and Influenced by the
Young Mems Christian Association
during the war will mold the future
of the nation. and the organization
which affords the best welcome and
best aid to these coming arbiters of
national destiny in peace will not only
be serving the men but also will be
serving mankind, declared Josephus
Daniels, Secretary of the Navy, to the
fortieth international convention of
the association here tonight.
Mr.. Daniels expressed high appre-
citation of the associations work with
the Army and Navy during the war.
Two criticisms aimed at the associa-
tons work, he declared, should be
matters of pride. The first was as to
it's canteen work, he said, adding: at
is record that will liye-that when
the hour struck the association was
ready, equipped, and gave proof that
it had practical faith in preparedness
with Army help it undertook the
job and, though it sold at less than
cost. the prices charged necessarily
were higher than at home, and some
Of the soldiers made complaint"
