The morning ses- vill open at 10.30 in the fifth de- gree for the transaction of general business. Tt has been suggested that a short period of the morning session be devoted to remarks appreciative of the lives of two past masters who have re- cently died. Dinner is pianned for 12.15 and is in charge of Brother Ben- nette anc ‘Sister A. M. Bassett and Sister Fates. The afternoon session Will_te in the fourth degree and will Fafin at 1.30.

Gallup, $211.30; Team C, through S. B. Palmer, $207; Team B, through President Browning, $215: Team A, through J. L. Case, $20, a total of $653.30. The total amount raised to date is $5,025.55, leaving a balance of $1,000 which has to be secured today, the last of the contest. Inasmuch as $1,200 pledged is conditional upon the raising of the entire amount, every member of the various teams will have to see every prospect on his list, and a large proportion of those seen will have to respond.

Moreover, the canals must be covered throughout their length; otherwise, so rare is the atmosphere, the water would be evaporated before it could be of any service to vegeta- tion.

Tt is therefore hoped that a hearty response will today be given to the hard work- ing members of the various teams. Mr. Bates, state secretary, had to leave for his home in New Haven, and as faint appreciation of the good work which he has done throughout the’en- tire week a rising vote of thanks was tendered to him, as was also done for Secretary Wilson of the New Britain association. In a short speech Mr. Wilson told the members present how his associa- tion recently held a membership con- test with the idea of bringing in 200 in one day. So thoroughly were the various committeemen imbued with this idea that 299 names were secured the first day and fifty more the follow- ing morning. On Thursday Mr. Wilson very ably assisted Team B in its work with very gratifying results. During the present week, while the various teams representing the local Y. M. C. A. are interesting citizens | in subscribing to this worthy object, it ! is quite interesting to learn of what is being done by associations in various parts of the country. Many Sides to Work. | There are a great many different sides to Y. M. C. A. work; religious, social, athtletic, and not least import- ant of all, educational. Right here in the local Association a large number of classes have been held throughout the winter months, under competent in- ( structors, which have been very well attended by young men eager to ac- quire knowledge in the various sub- jects. A very interesting item in this connection is the large proportion of foreign born young men, the future voters, who take this means of gaining an education outside of their regular working hours. While this is to a great extent true in Norwlch, it is much more so in localities where there | is @ larger proportion of foreign boon. It may not be generally known, but | it is a fact that the Y. M. C. A. main- tains a corps of port secretaries, eight of whom are stationed at the principal sailing points Europe and seven of America meet the emigrant upon arriving. 'This is a very import- ant factor in the work, and as first| impressions are very strong, especial- them in Contributions New Amount to $5,025 55 for the Week’s Efforts—Sum of $653 30 Raised on Thursday—What ! light of a gala day. . tures are given in the open air, views 1y with foreigners, it has led to a large number of them joining the Associa: tion, and made of them better and more useful cltizens. A large number of these young men have taken their first steps in learn- ing the English language through Y. M.'C. A. work. In Pennsylvania,where there are a large number of illiterate workman, the English language is taught my means of the stercopticon. The teachers are recruited not only from among native Americans, but from among those who have already been taught through the same medium and who have become so interested tha they have become active workers. In this work no attempt is made to teach a higher education, but, follow- ing up the study of our language, they are taught lessons in patriotism, facts concerning our laws, and a strenuous effort is made to induce these people to lead both outwardly and inwardly clean, moral lives. It is very certain that young men thus instructed be- come better wage earners and {ar more efficient workers in the community. Special Services. On national holidays special effort is made to interest these citizens, and under Y. M. C. A. auspices services appropriate to the day are held, which 80 a long way toward giving the for- eigner a better idea of what these hol- idays really stand for, which means a great deal, as the average new arrival considers our holidays merely in the Stereopticon lec- of foreign countries and the United States being shown, closing with slides of Ellis Island and the Statue of Li erty. At one Fourth of July lecture one of the men remarked that they did not want to =ee views of foreizn lands, but more about the United States, and pictures of its great men. The eagerness to learn more about America and American citizens seems to be present in almost all of these newly arrived emigrants. “That belongs'to all of us,” said one of a group of men, pointing to the Amer- ican flag on top of a tree which stood in the midst of several shacks. Men want_citizenship, and they know it and they are inspired by a true loyalty to the flag. Men who are anxious to learn the English language are very apprecia- tive of this opportunity to do so and they are strong workers to have their friends and relatives take the same courses. There are a large number of college men among the workers who are rendering very efficient aid and many young men who are graduates of associations just like the one in Nor wich. All over the United States foreign men are coming into the local associa- tions with cards of introduction from the port secretaries stationed in Fu- rope and have thus been kept out of cheap Jodging houses and away from the prey of boarding hou shariks. There is no work being carried on to- day among the young men of this country which is as far reaching and powerful in its influence as is associa- tion work. This fact is so well recog- nized by the great railroads of the country that aimost all of them bave given buildings and money toward maintaining branches,for their em- ployes and there are also quite a num- ber of associations which are espe- cially designed for eoldiers and sail- ors. The public will remember the magnificent gift of Miss Helen Gould, who after the Spanish war erected a large building for the sailors of the Brooklyn navy yard, and John D. Rockefeller recently erected one at the Norfolk navy yard. Right here in Norwich there are no spectal needs of that character, but ever since the rooms were first opened in the Pierce block the association has been a power for good among the young men in the community. Upbuilding Christian Manhood. The first work of the association, a5 its name implies, is the upbuilding of Christian manhood, the other features being but 2 means to the desired end. Many of the earnest workers in our associations might rightly be called graduates of this school, as through the influence of the Christian men who have acted as secretaries a large num- ber of them have been brought into the churches of Norwich. There is no cause which comes before the people of this city asking for their aid which pays a better dividend, not in dollars and cents, but in better manhood and a more wholesome and energetic class of citizen: Today is the day that counts concede that as a Commissioner dollar which the citizens of contripute to this work is mone: spent in the interests of the cit is to be hoped that when the da over the thermometer will show the desired goal has been attained. is that WANT A CITY MEETING CALLED BY THE MAYOR Petition Presented to Him on Thurs- day in Which Improvement in Pri ent Municipal Gevernment Is Sought A petition headed by Gilbert S.

Consid- ering the criticism to which he has been subjected in many quarters this praise of the roads from those who are of necessity keen judges, must be accejtable as doubtless it is ac- served. Speaking of this outcome the Ansonia Sentinel very truly says: “This information should be pleasing to a great many besides the state highway commissioner, and displeas- ing oniy to those who ecriticise Irimn and his methods for other purposes than for the good of the state. It should be pleasing to thousands who use the highways for business and for pleasure and it should prove a sat- isfaction to txxpayers. It scores one for MacDonald.
