Ardmore, Okla.

Editor Daily Ardmoreite:
There could bee no more appropriate
memorial erected in the honor Of our
boys who now lie in Flanders fields
than a live, substantial. living Y.
". G.. y. building on the site which
is nov owned by our local organi2a-
tom. There is no other city OF our
size and responsibility to the growing
generations, that is without a !. NJ.
G. \. building. and it will be nothing
short of criminal, in view Of the pres.
! eat need to spend $50 600 or more on
q lifeless marble monument. such as
is proposed by the memorial commit
tee, and pass such a golden opportu.
nifty TO serve the city and county in
such commendable way. The Y.
NJ. G. \. building will serve peculiar
ana much felt need. 1t will provide
rooming facilities for men teachers
and other young and old men alike,
Of good character, who are, for yar
Gus reasons deprived of the pleasures
above all will furnish the training
and stimulus for physical and moral
exercise that il needed for our young
er boys
Alongside the Boy Scouts organiza.
tiun there is no other organ that gives
the prestige, force of character and
helps TO upbuild the community, eX.
gl, hp
ing y NJ. G. \. And how can Y.
NJ. G. \. work without a suitable
building?
Mrs. Gilbert, in Mondays issue of
the Ardmorete, suggests that such u
memorial would be the choice of our
boys, were they able to voice their
desire in such n matter, and there
can be no doubt as 10 that because
the boys that came back those that
were the comrades Of those who fell
in battle, want a Y. VI. c. \. build
ing. and practically every man, wo-
man and child whom ! have approach.
eel on the subject are anxious to see
Ardmore build u Y. NJ. c. A. building
that will be u credit TO all southern
oklahoma.
There are some few who are bitter.
ly opposed TO such memorial, be-
cause of certain Irregularities in the
army Y Nj. c. 4. in France But
the whole organization can not be
justly judged hy few men, especial
ly those Of AN undesirable character
and taken rs a whole the Y. NJ. G. \.
is one of the finest and cleanest or.
GJni2ations OF its kind in the world
\ local organization depends largely
on the local secretary and the work
he does and if the local organization
makes u good choice for the position
success Is assured at the beginning.
Let's try TO overlook such petty
things as mentioned above and hitch
our wagon to the stars. Let's spend
iltty. seventy or a hundred thous
ana dollars right and erect memor
idl in honor Of those who gave their
ALL that will live and he appreciated
on down the years to come to our
fast growing community.
