The treasurer's report showed that all bills are paid and that thers is a balance in the treasury. The officers of the association were reclected_as follows: James L. Case, president; James C.

The women have served twenty-three Bible class suppers for the boys, who ;:id ten cents each for each supper. e auxiliary also serv. ed supper for the Father and Son an- nual event, the camp reunion and the anpual affair for the boys taking part in the entertainment for the benefit| of the boys’ camp. Five hundred dollars was paid to the association for current expenses and at a recent meeting the ladies voted to earn $5,000 for the new build- ing fund to be paid within two year: The auxiliary closed the year with all bills paid and there is a good bal- ance in the treasury. The annual Y. M. C. A. service this year will be held on May 20 at which time a prominent out of town man will be _the principal speaker. President Case’s report follows: 1 count it no small privilege to be able to present to you a brief state- ment of the excelient work accom- plished by the, association during the past year. ere has been a strong association spirit manifested by all de- partments, and the reeults achieved have, I believe, been more far-reaching than ever before in the history of our association. We have been able not only to maintain our local work but have made possibie the continuance of a secretary in_Paotingfu, China, for another year. With one exception our official force has remained unchanged, and this fact has been a very impo: tant factor in the success of the year's wor. Religious Work Department. The work of our religious work de- partment has been continued along similar lines to those of last year and regular meetings for men have been held in flve of the factories, and whersver these have been condueted much interest has been manifested by the men. Through the Ikindness of Judge John M. Thayer we have been permitied to hold most of our Sunday afternoon meetings in one of his large stores on Franklin square. This loca- tion hes been very favorable for our purposes, and more men have aitended regulatly than in past seasons. Sev- 1 poor fellows who were “down and " have been aided during the trust that thoy- have { helped to lead better lives. The work at the jail has been carried on as in past vears under the leadersirip of Mr. Prentice, who has so faithfully con ducted this work for several seasons. Business Department. Because of the generous financial support given the work by our many friends, the treasurer’s report shows that for the 13th consecutive time the has been closed with all bills pa d a balance of $30.30 in the treasury. The speci care that has { been given this department by L. O. Smith and his assistant, Philip A. on, has in no small measuré made ‘e this result. report of the trustess will show funds have been carefully in- , and the income received there- from has been larger during this vear han ev before. Because of a successful members campaign held during the vea¥ we are able to report a total membership of i 9 which 1s an _increase of 223 o tite 730 reported May 1st, 1516. Dormitory. Receipts from our dormitories during the past year have been the largest in the history of the association.” All the rooms have been occupied practically throughout the entire year, and many times thcre has been a large waiting list. We are forcibly reminded in this department alone of what additional accoinmodations would mean, not oniy to the men and boys desiring such ac- commodations but also to the financial return that the association would re- ceive. | vested Educational Department. Because of our inadequate facilities the educational work has been very iimited. Mr. Crandall bas done good worl in his class in salesmapship and Mr. Carlevale has had a successful class in italian. - Because of the fact that it was im- possible to secure a proper auditorium we were unable for the first time since 1309 to give our Star couree of enter- tainments. We were, however, fortu- nate in securing Marshall Darrach for a series of three Shakespearean recit- als, and these proved a source of great delight to those patronizing the course. Our reading room has been kept well supplied with newspapers, magagines end other periodi¢als, and the large daily use of this departFent shows its importance as well as its popularity. Social Department. The social committee’s work under Mr. Gray has been one of the marked features of the year. Throughout the different months some activity along this line has been conducted, and much pleasure and profit have been dgrived because of the efficient work done by this committee. Several socials have been given to different_organizations throughout the city, and the result has been that many peopie have been attracted our rooms because of the Work of ti department. Physical Department. Mr. Nickerson, who for two years had_been our physical director, left us in September, 1916, to _accept an im- portant position in the Tacoma, Wash., Y. M. C. A. We were very foréunate in securing as his successor Roy T. Crosby, who had been for several years in Knoxville, Tenn., and who was 2 graguate of the'Silver Bay Fraining school. James L. Case Chosen President of Local Association for Another Year—Plans for Building Fund Campaign Out- — SN 4 - Benevolent Department. There has been comparatively little sickness among our members during the year. The secretaries have visited those who have been reported ill, and on some occasions flowers have been sent to the shut-ins. Every oppor- tunity to visit young men who are in need of friends during periods of fll- ness has been availed of. Foreign Work. As mentioned in the opening para- graph of this report, our foreign work has been continued, and it has bec® very gratifying to us to learn from a letter from Arthur Rugh, who visited Norwich two years ago, and who has recently been making a tour of China, that the association has been fortunate in secyring for a very small sum one of the best buildings in the city of Paotingfu. This was made possibie by the interest of a Chinese merchant who owned the property and who had been impressed by the Work the association was doing for the young men of the city. Over 1,000 of the Chiinese younz men have been in Bible and education- al classes in that city, and in the new and better quarters which are to be provided for the coming year's work still greater results are to be hoped for. J Mr. Clack, our secretary, Is at the present time on a furlough in this country, and it was a pleasure to wel- come him to Norwich in the fall of 1916. We ask for your continued in- terest in and prayers for Mr. Clack and his work in China. Junior Department. The boys' work has been one of the most successtul efforts of the entire vear's_activities. Mr. Ely's influence over the boys seems to grow from year to vear, and the results attained in this department have been very gratifying. Whether in entertainments, Bible classes, mid-week religious services, «ports, or summer camp, a high Chris- tian atmosphere has seemed to pre- vail. The boys are taught to I0ok at lite from a serious standpoint, and I belleve that much good is being done the Jads who are fortunate enough to be identified with this department. Women's Auxiliary. It is with pleasure that I express the appreciation of the association to the Women's Auxillary. Their con- tinued support and interest has made o large part of our work possible. Never have they faled to assist when ®alled upon both for service and fi- nancial assistance. The renewal of their contribution of $500 to the gen- eral treasury of the assoclation has made possible some things that other- wise could not have been accomplish- ed. Their large membership, the largest In the state of Connecticut, is not enly gratifying to us in Norwich, but is a Source of Inspiration to other asso- ciations in the state. ¢ Trust Funds and Endowment Duting the past year our invested funds have been increased to $30.520.71 and I am simply bringing this matter to your attention in the hope that Eome of our generous citizens may sce their way clear to remember the association in_their will: We believe that the work for young men and_boys Is one of the most im- portant done by any organization in our city, and that without the strong Bssociation_work in the thousands of cities in North America today, the work that is beinz done throughout tie world by the international com- mittea could never have been made possible. New Building Campaign. T cannot close this report without referring to the campaizn for the pu pose of securing funds for the ne: Dbuilding which is to be conducted from May 18 to May 26. Every detail has been given careful attention, and nearly paign officers, captains of mcmbers of zoneral staff sceured. Never have we realized so much the need of adequate anarte in order that the work which is pr tng s at the present time should be carried on in the most efficient man- ner. While we realize the which exist throughout the firmly helieve that the need of n bet- ter men itual and physical training for our members s “greater than ever before. Ve cannot do the worl: which I3 absolutelv requirea in our present quarters, and we are pray ing that the efforts which are beingz put forth next week may resuit in the securing of at least $150.000, which shall make such a building possible. A number of our fricnds have sig- nified_their willingness to contribute very large and substantial am: and we are couating upon a very zen- erous support in smaller amounts from our friends throughout the city 1 ask the hearty co-operation of ev- ery member that he will use his in- fluence in every possible way in as- sisting to make our new building cam- paign a complete success. We are living in a time such as the world ha: never known, and the demand fo strong men is greater than ever be- fore. Opportunities’ press us on every side, and the need of a work for which our association stands is even greater and the possibilities even larger than at any time in its his- tory. T desire to express my personal ap- preciation of all that has been done by the many during the past vear and to urge a hearty continuation of their interest in the coming year. Your officers and directors pledge to vou the best service that they are capable of performing, and I bespeai your continued interest, prayers and co-operation to the end that the com- ing vear may be the very best in the history of our organization. ¥ cam- teams and have been conditions world, I A emall mosquito is a dangerous thing.

It was learned on Wednesday that a_movement will be started by the Chamber of Commerce to learn the sentiment of Norwich citizens on the advisability of holding Americaniza- tion Day on the Fourth of July. The matter first will be brought to the at- tention of the directors of the cham ber for comsideration and it is quite possible that the ciy officials may be asked to cooperate in the movement i it s adopted. Americanization Day is a call national service and national alle unce of foreign-born and native-bi alike. Over one hundred and seven cities in America conducted such cele- brations last Fourth of July. Many more are planning to do the same this vear. Suggestions on what to do on Amer- lcanization Day and how to conduct a_citizenship reception as announced by the immigration bureau of the . 8. Chamber of Commerce foilow How to organize an Americanization Day reception: A citizens’ Americani. zation Day committee should be ap- pointed by the mayor or the chairman of an Independence Day or sane Fourth committee. This committee should represent the city government. naturalization officials, board of edu- cation, chamber of commerce, city club, soclal agencles, patriotic socie- ties, women's clubs, and fraternal or- ganizations among the foreign born. The services of an executive secre- tary, possibly obtained from some lo- cal organization, will be of great as- sistance in organizing the work. A secretary’s services can usually be se- cured free of charge. The following sub-committees are suzgested: (a) arrangements — pro gram, speakers and decorations; (b) finance funds can be raised by pri- vate subscriptions or by special ap. propriation by the city council from public funds. Several citics made ap- propriations last year. Cleveland raised necessary funds by selling In- dependence Day seals.

Honored Guests: The newly alized citizens can be given specinl recognition by presenting each with American flac on his entrance and a special admission ticket for himself and his family. The new citizens can then Le ushered to a special section, preferably ‘a_raised platform on the stage. Boy Scouts have been used ef- fectively in several cities as ushers for the honored guests. Decorations: The National Ameri- canization committee sugsests (hat all cities develop their decorations aiong these lines: (a) Only American flage and bunting.
