have enjoyed listening to an explain

inception was mainly for aiding re-
turned soldiers to fit themselves for
civilian life. More than 10000 cX
service men have already been train
ed through this institution, he de-
clared. The Extension Division Of
the Y. VI. c. A has been set up for
Christian service, he said. and the
idea of it is, he continued, is not to
make money but to make men, to
make better citizens and better AM

high school and to college if possible
but warned that if fate should pre-
vent the from attending either high
school or college they should take IN
the course offered by this new branch
of the Y. NJ. C. 4. He passed out

night that the new city incinerating

visit OF the Councilmen to the plant
last Monday.

pany's bill of $4,000 Is not payable
