FK I DAY Went to a bridge party here
yesterday and hav discovered that I am
not cut out for polite society. I mean
very polite society. The whole trouble was
my being so hungry, and the fact that Jim
was going to call for me to take mo home.
He has taken a room at the "Swell View"
this time, Bnd says It Is much more com
fortable than the "Hllge Water." He aays
that as long as I cannot foil In love with
him, he wants to be a close friend of mine,
a regular brother, in fact. He really
must by an awful Idiot. But It's hie look
out. I told him that If he thought It con
ceited I couldn't help It, but people never
could be brotherly toward me.
There la one man that I have known for
ages who really Is rather that wav when
we are together, but he bores me so dread
fully he never Is with me except very oc
casionally. ,
Kttll. It Is very sweet of Jim to be willing
to try, and as he couldn't possibly accom
plish It, we may get along very nicely.
Anyway, he said he would come to the
Wilton's and take me home the day of the
bridge, and I kept thinking about htm and
made awful mistakes. I had been so late
about getting dressed that I didn't have
time for much lunch, and as the drive over
was pretty cold t began to long for tea
quite early In the afternoon.
When Margaret (.'sines' back was toward
me It fascinated me so I couldn't play at
all. How a person with any money at all
(and she la supposed a have unite a lot)
can dress as she does Is a perfect marvel
to me. Her neck always looks very Im
tnodoat In a high collar and very modest
Then, as though it wanted to cover up the
expanse of skin that showa. between the
roota of her hair and her collar at the
back, a bang of short serviceable looking

the subject of the Incubators with so much
enthuntasm that his wife began to think
there really might be something practical
In ths notion after all.
She decided that ?he would go over to
the publlo library and read everything
about chicken raising that Its dusty shelves
would afford.
Aft-r lunch on she. carried out her plan,
and durtuK a lutia. sogs', afternoon delved
so deeply and enthusiastically Into the lit

later, she had begun to f-cl she would like
to be hatched ov-r again herself.

She ran toward him. hr face alight
with enlt.usia.Klc npuiry.
' I've tx-en reading up on Incubators ail

away. What did you find out? And what
lave you got In that package? They look
kind of hlg for cgs-s. Where's the Incu

The Boss smiled rather sheepishly.
"res." he said, "they are kind of bg
even for duck eggs. I saw the Incubator
notion didn't appeal to you so I gave It up.
They're the tennis balls you asked for last

hairs flutter down. Her low necked dresses
are always trying their best to' be high-

would be more suitable if they had been

always wear at best two very atrehy, full
petticoats that advertise the - starch at
every step she takes. -
The day of the bridge she ba,d a pink
sash tied right at th back of her waist.
If it had been pinned to her knee or under
one arm, even. It might not hare looked go

Whera Busan Van Tomb gives one the

there haa been too much.' Hex face Is evi

skin haa a pained sort of loek. Her nose
gets furious about It. but. although It Is
such a big one, of course It Is more or less
helpless. I suppose. Bhe had a cold that
day and treated It so roughly I should
think It would keep the cold Just to spite
her.
I kept getting hungrier and hungrier, and
when it was time for tea I felt like mak
ing a dash for the d:nlng room,. They had
wonderful looking sandwiches which old
Mrs. Wilton handed to me. I tooV one

Nobody else had even commenced theirs.
wlchrs. ,1 was very thirsty, but the tea
was (00 hot to drink. The maid handed
the sandwiches arougd next, and I took
another and managed to make two bites
of It. No one else seemed to be touching
theirs, and I felt quite embarrassed.
Then Mrs. Wilton aaked me to have a
cake and I bit the whole aide of it off be
fore she. had even aeen tbat I had pro
cured one. It was dreadful. They were so
stingy with the things. Old Mm. Wilton
may have noticed the glare of my eye as
I gazed at the platea, for she actually
handed me the cake again. I said. "Oh,
thank you, Mrs. Wilton: I'm really
ashamed to take any more, but they are
so delicious."
If you say 'that while helping yourself
largely the fifth or sixth time It takes your
hostess attention away from you. and she
only thinks what a genius she Is at provld
lng refreshments for her guests.
Margaret Gaines, of course, behaved like
a perfect lady . and showed no signs of
hunger. I heard Jim outside soon and had
to go away without vetting anything more
to eat. 1 hadn't won a prise, but I didn't
care, as they turned out to be small dust
pans and whisk brooms tied up with rib
bon. Mrs. Wilton said aha thought it was
such fun to give simple little prises, and
We all said It was so much more sensible.
She asked me playfully If I wasn't sorry
I hadn't won one, and ' I was so busy

The triennial i omentum of the Inter
national Young Men's Christian nssocln- j
tlon. which begins its deliberations In
Toronto next Thursday, focuses the eyes
of the world upon an Institution whlrh
has been one Of the must potent factor
in raising the people J every race and
clime to a high standard of right living
and right thinking.
In Its ever broadening endeavor to de
velop In their right proportions the
trinity of man his mental, spiritual and
physical sides the Young Men's Christian
association has gon Into every country
on the globe. At the Toronto gathe-lng
there will be between l,:oH end dele
gates from every quarter of the world,
euger to solve the great problems which
face the Institution and which will have a
far-reaching effect upon the spread of its
beneficent Influence.
The three most Important concrete ques
tions to come before the convention will
be: First, the resolutions presented by the
I'aciflo coast presidents and geneial sec
retaries, providing that any 10 pur cent
of the associations stiull have the right
to file a referendum, petition at any time
J within ninety daya after an international
convention. The argument for this Is that
at the conventions many of tue associa
tions are unable to have proper repre
sentation and therefore are not partici
pants In making, the laws which govern
the Institution's activities. Second, a fur-
j ther dlscuaslon of the ' "evangelical teat,
provisos which reatricts active management
and control of the Young Men s i.nnsuan
association work to members of Protestant
churches. Third, plana for the advance
ment of the "men and religion forward
movement," a campaign whluh Is to be
set in motion In tieiitember, 1M1. and con
tinue through May, 1912. During that time
It Is hoped to bring to Christ and the
church 100,000 men and boys, to double the
enrollment of the Bible classes and to add
conclusive testimony to the essential
reality of ChrH'fan unity,
While thee, at e' the formal questions to
be discussed, It is known that many of the
leaders In the Young- Men Chrlatlan as
sociation movement are mote vitally con
cerned In questions of advancing the work
of the organization In continental Europe
and hi England along the lir e which have
brought sucli .a. rich harvest In America.
The democracy of the American Young
Mens Christian association Is the ideal
toward which the continental organisa
tions are atriving. In Kngland tlio work Is
largely confined to the classes among which
the association : waa founded by George
Williams in 184L ;in America the Young
Men's Christian association appeals alike
to the Slav who cornea from the depths of
the coal mine to learn the rudiments of,
Kngllsh In tho night achools and to the
Sons of America's multl-mUUonalrea who
find In the Institution's gymnasiums and
tn Its aoctal circle recreation and sound
moral Influence. On the continent tl.e
work Is handicapped by the traditions of
caste and claaa. It Is these traditions
which the leadera are' trying to overcome
so that the benefits of the Institution may
he as . widespread ., elsewhere as In this
country. In the Orient, where the Ameri
can has been the'1 Toung Men's Christian
association pioneer, the work haa pro
gressed far mora satisfactorily than In Eng
land where tho movement waa star tod.
Th great bold which the work haa taken
upon tho Chinese -and the, Japanese Is
shown In the fact that In th city or
Tokyo more than 1.40 Chlneae students as
semble from time "to time In th new build
ing erected as th headquarters of th 15,000
Chinese students who ar studying In
Japan. Count 'Okumra, the famoug Jap
anese statesman, who Is not a Christian,
but maintains a Shinto shrine In his palac
grounds, said ,. to th secretary of the
American board recently: "It Is Important
that theae Chinese students b Impressed
with th fact that Christianity Is good for
a nation." He added that he proposed to
do all h could to help the association get
hold of th Chinos young men. Th work
In Korea Is, likewise, advancing rapidly.
Th cardinal virtu of the Young Men's
Christian association method of reaching
men is that it I unhampered by traditions
and that tt la a democrat! o Institution la
th broadest and best sense of th word.
It is progrsslv In its work, utilising th
common-sense means at hand. The best
example of this 1 to be found In th work
being accomplished In tha lc-hound regions
of Alaska. Ther th ecretary of th Sol
dier' Young Men's Christian aasoolatlon
at Fort Beward spends hi summer, on a
"floating Young; Men' Chrlatlan associa
tion building," a thlrty-elght-foot launch
called tha "Helen Gould." In thla tiny
craft Mr. Reid and hi' wife have traveled
more than S.000 miles up and down tha
Yukon and Its tributaries, carrying niaga
sines, music and good cheer to the Isolated
posts and mining ramps. In soma of these
places the mere night of a human being
gnd the sound of a woman's voice are
godsends to men consumed with lonellnee
and overwhelmed by the "great alienee"
Shifting from the Arctic to the Torrid
lime, the Young Men's Christian associa
tion Is found a potent factor In the Pan
ama canal territory. There the I'nited
State government gives official recogni
tion of the invaluable work being don In
its club houses, giving comfort to the men.
making them contented and aiding ma
terially In the work of law and ordei
When the government erected club houses
on th rone several years ago President
Tali, then secretary of war, "asked the
Young Men's Christian association to take
chirrgc of them. In explanation of till te-Kiiet-t,
he said: "When you want a capital
operation perforiued you go to a good
surgeon; when you want a lawsuit car
ried on as it ought to be carried on you
go to a good lawyer, and when tou wanl
a means of keeping a population occupied
through leisure hours with rational amuse
ment of a hliih moral and religious tone
you xo to the men who have experience
In carrying on such a work and such an in
stitution. It cannot be learned owr night.
Therefore, what we did was to apply to
the Young Men's Christian association."'
A recent movement Inaugurated by ths
Voting Men's Christian association seems to
promise Incalculable benefit, net only to
the Individual youth of the world, but to
the great commercial enterprise so vitally
affected by the efficiency of the young men
employed. Thla movement Is known as th
"vocation bureau." Its establishment Is
ba-ed upon the theory that a boy .raised In
a city takes the first job he can get and
drifts around trying one place after another
without advice or a chance to discover
or develop any special fitnesa for a certain
line of work. The vocation "bureau Is de
signed to study the applicant and his capa
bilities and work with the employment de
partment of the Young Men's Christian as
sociation. In thla way it la believed con
genial occupations will be given to young,
men who might otherwise grope blindly
about and perhaps never secure the work
for which thay were beat fitted.
Among the most ardent supporters of th
Young Men's Christian association Indus
trial movement ar th cotton mill operator
In the south. They have already invested
f 160.000 In equipping Young Men's and
Young Women's Christian association
buildings and ar contributing from their
company treasuries from.tltt.000 to $20,000
a year for their support. 'Through th In--sututlon's
efforts personal and community
cleanliness, more and. better education and
greater attention to the health and re
moval of the causes of disease arc being
fostered.
Tli field whJch th Young Men'a Chtis
tion association haa adopted as its own Is
I th- field of evry-day Ufa, and th very-
day religion of better service, better living
and higher 'thinking aa' coatra'sUd' with a '
Sunday religion of creed and dogma. Th
Institution has gone, to too . railroad man
in his shop, to the soldier on the frontier. .
to the sailor In port, to th workman In
his hour of ease, and has made that' ease
a period of recreation, advancement and
education; to the country boy In th vil
lage, and lias helped hi in equip himself
with th commercial training which lie
needs -grhen he breast th tides of com
petition in the great cities; to the student,
who Is anxious to gain commercial train

to tha Industrial worker In th factories

Its diversity of . Interests. It . freedom
from th shackles of olasa distinction and
Its fundamental principle 'of the brother

mad possible th wonderful growth of
th Young Men's Christian aasoolatlon in

of It olub houara and equipment haa
grown from 120,000.000 to $44,600,000, and Its

larged at a cost of $6,800,000, and ther ar

which will cost more than $10.00.000. Th
