A., ana | Americanization director of Wlndnaln' | who spoke briefly on his work in tnls | city and the organization for whlch ne i works throughout the world. when you see 8 Y. M C. A. building in any clty' do not think of it as a separate building but as one part of great orSanlHat4oii' said Mir Gilman. In this country t."te are 700 city associations, 240 assoclatloHs exclusively by railroad men, and l5S as- socjatior buiidinrs used for industrial workers Work is also done among ti'e Indians and members of the colored race. In Connecticut feature ot the as- sociation is the county work, in charge or a county director whose duties it is to get young men together to enjoy the priv ileges of the association
 Resides the buildings mentioned great work is done among the colleges ana pre- paratorv schools Yale University men are doing great work along Americanlza- ton lines in New Haven. The assoclatloh is still doing work among the AnerlctA soldiers now in Germany, also among the Polish troops ond Russian troops in East ern Siberia. There are 42O aSSoclatloh buildings in countries other than in Eu- rope and the United States and Canada In China. where there is a long waiting list a campaign was held recently and A oucta of s100, 900 was assigned, but the people there raised S1, 100000.
 The local associations endeavor to help young fellows who come into the cities 1 in search of work. The Northeastern 1 College of the Boston Association now i has branches in many New England States and men in the courses are able [ 10 enter further studies in universities. Many prominent business men are en- rolled in the courses.
 The Willimantic association building is 1 one of the best in the country for city the size of Willimantic. It costs 1 s20000 gross to keep up the local ac- i tivities and of this amount s5,000 must | be raised yearly by pledges. The great | est need of the local Y is more commit i tee work and the smaller the association | the greater is the need for individual work.
