"Why Men Should Join the Y. M. ('

Kiven which emphasized this point
These were- Large and broad social
and religious principles, also clean liv
ing in individual life. The objections
brought against joining the Y M. C
A are lack of time and a general in
difference. Mr Hunter's talk was verv
practical and made a deep impression
on those who were lortunate enough
to be a tthe meeting.
Chairman Ganz of the social commit
tee reported that work on three big
features was being pushed. These fea
tures are: University night, a joint
reception and a banquet of university
