Smith Directing
Formation Plans
Y. M. C.. A. Conference

Plans are being formulated under
the direction of Jeff Smith, State Y.
M. c. A. secretary for the boys sum-
mer camp at Winthrop Center. Me.
Among the conferences which will be
held there this year will be tie lead
ers training conference, Christian
Endeavor conference. clergy confer
cnce. college student conference. en-
ployed officers conference and other
gatherings. Mr.. Smith expects that
there will be over 1000 people that
will attend the meetings. Many peo-
pie do not realize the vast number Of
young men that attend the State
conference, but it is on record that
for eight consecutive years the State
OF Maine Boys and Students y. M.
c. A. conferences had the largest at
tendance than any similar gathering
III the entire world. Mr.. Smith says
that this is not guess work as he had
the figures to show. The benefit de-
rived by the churches from these
conferences can be determined by the
number who attend the conference to
join some church during the year.
The average has been slightly over
800 per year during the last Is
years. The State Y. NJ. c. A. office
is in the Watervilie Savings Bank
building and employs several stenog-
raphers to answer the large amount
of correspondence which is received
daily asking for information concern
ing the different projects which the
"Y" is promoting. 1t may be inter-
cstinS to the public to learn that Mr..
Smith has a file which contains
thousands Of names CT boys and
young men in this State and that
they are tabulated by a color sys-
ten. for instance. a name on red
card means danger, and that the boy
whose name is on the card Of this
color will have to he under the
watchful eye of a secretary or leader
during the conference or other meet
ing. The boys tabulated on the white
cards are those which have Joined
churches. and the black denotes those
who were once attenders of the Y. NJ.
c \. gatherings but has passed to

great file system the characteristics

the Great organization is tabluatcd.

These arc the foods that contain nee
cssary food factors necessary to proper

Historically. the races which have
survived through all the ages have
been those who have had pasture

Cereals have not predominated their
food but they have freely used milk

Probably no discovery in the fields
of biological chemistry or physiol-

basis than the discovery of the sub

be secured from widespread natural

dict that the time may come. after
