BOY'S LOVE FOR "Y" TOLD AT MEETING IN ATLANTIC CITY Perry A. Wilson, boys' work secreI tary of the local Y. M. C; A., has subjruitted the following Etory of the Y. M. C. A. written, by a boy. In offerling the story for publication Mr. WilMn remarked that the story should be read by parents and by those interested in the association a3 the story was told by the boy hfmself at the International Y. M. C. A. convention held at Atlantic City. He said that it is the personal history of Arthur V. Larson, president of the "Y" Industry club at New Haven, Conn. -la Jane 190 I graduated from the New Haven commercial high school.

The clas book gravely announced

that -'Kid' iArson would enter the busi

ness world. - As a matter of fact I

had already been in the business

world for two years, working afternoons. However, something else of

immiriamv 1 ill haDnen to me that

Juno. I joined the Young Men's Christian association. The hard earned

S2 bill that I paid for a summer membership was the best two bucks

I ever srpeut. "The vear and a half that, I have

t,f-pn in ihe Y. M. C. A. covers a life

time of happy experience and physi

cal, mental and moral growtn. ine things that appealed to me at first in the 'Y' were the gym and pool. As ihe old gang in our neighborhood had been broken no. the only opportunity

for sport was in the park. It was at my mother's request that I kept away

from them. I soon touna tnai m we

'V 1 could get plenty of fun and sport

in a good wholesome way. It seemea great after a long day indoors to get a good sweat up at gym work or basketball, with a shower and a plufige . after it. Club Ende Lonliness "At 1irst the Y' was rather a lonely

plaf-e for nie until I joined the Industry club, a club of fellows ia the employed boys' class. It was in the club work that I gained friendship with tbe other fellows. Our leader was a business man who had been a Irtniouth college athlete. We all admired and respected him. Although he lias left New Haven his name i3 still a byword for clean, hard sports and good times. He still holds our affection. Through his interest in me I became president of the club. "To many of us' fellows, the club is the most important part of the Y' program. This year we are planning to continue all of our activities socials, suppers, educational and vocational talks, a Bible class, and sports. The club is represented by a basketball team in the Interchurch league. In brief, the Industry club gives all the advantages of an athletic club and also the help and guidance of men who are working for our benefit. Their only reward is to see the wonderful improvement in character that is a result of their efforts. "A3 a delegate from the club to the ITi-Y summer camp and the Older Boys conference, the wonderful experience I had made a deep and lasting impression on me. The devotional and Inspirational program in the atmosphere of the water and woods aroused in me a deep and reverent spirit. The counsel and example of the leaders inspired me. Determined to Win "With two other boys I returned determined to put over the work of the club in the right way. The con

ference had converted us into enthusiastic leaders in tb- club's Christian

program. Last r:i:,:nier I eagerly

signed up for ';s at the camp with a pal of i:: ,vs a tent leader in charge of 12;. ear-old boys, I had

mere responsibility and less freedom

than he. We wondered afterward who did get the most enjoyment out of camp life. Bob said it was the best camping experience he had ever had and that he would return next year as a tent leader, if possible. Al

though he is quite an athlete, it is the spiritual and educational work and the good fellowship that he liked best. "My mother has often said that the "Y" was a fine place for me. It means a great deal to her that I spend my evenings in the Y. M. C. A. instead of the pool halls. This summer she was willing to let me go out of town to work for months because I had a room in a Y. M. C. A. dormitory. Dorm life is next to living at home. "This IS months membership in the Y. M. C. A. has given me wonderful

benefits, physically, mentally and socially. It has given me a cleaner, stronger character. In our town there are a lot of other fellows for whom ihe Y. M. C. A. has done the same thing, but to some of us the thing for which we are most grateful is the spiritual help we have received. The association has aught us the value of clean, sincere Christian life. Today we are ready and anxious to serve the Young Meu's Christian association in helping the olhr boy get what has been given us, love and devotion to our Master."

73RD LEGISLATURE REPORTED IN FAVOR OF FEW NEW LAWS

(By Associated Press) INDIANAPOLIS, Jan. 10. Members

of the seventy-third Indiana general assembly have indicated that they are in sympathy with the appeal of Gov

ernor McCray for a passage at this session of few new laws. Expressions

from both senate and house members

are favorable to the governor's program for a "season of governmental economy and a period of legislative inaction and rest."

Bills actually originating with mem

bers of the legislature probably will

be kept to the minimum, but it is ex

pected that ' organizations and indi

viduals with pet projects will increase the total.

Preceding the 1921 session there

also was much sentiment expressed

as to the desirability of placing a few

new laws on the statute books. The records show, however, that there were submitted to the senate 368 bills, 23 joint resolutions and eight concur

rent resolutions, while the house had 464 bills, one joint resolution and six

concurrent resolutions. A total of

280 acts were passed, together with 13 joint resolutions and six concurrent resolutions.

LIQUOR SPOTLIGHT

SHIFTS TO CAPITAL

(By Associated Press)

WASHINGTON, Jan. 10. The spot

light of bootlegging rumors and

charges which lia3 been hovering

over Washington, has shifted back to the capital today, with the declaration Jy Representative Upshaw, Democrat, of Georgia, on the floor of the house, that "bootleggers ply their devllsh trade among too many public men in

Washington.

With opportunity for reply by house

members to Representative "Upshaws

speech, in which he declared he would

turn over to enforcement authorities

all evidence placed in his hands of

liquor drinking by government offi

cials, including members of the sen

ate and house, cut off by. ajoumment

immediately after he concluded yes

terday, this was the next development expected today. Because the house was not a "justice court", the Georgia repreesntative said, ho would not make public names of senators and

representatives "who do not practice the prohibition which their votes pro

fess." And he had not threatened this

in his previous speech on the subject,

he said, because he "did not brandish

a sword," but "made an appeal.""

SCHOOL TO PURCHASE

HARP FOR ORCHESTRA

A harp for the students in the schools is to be purchased, it became known Wednesday, with the announcement that the student council of the high school at its meeting Thursday morning, had loaned $150 to the orchestra for the purchase of a harp. The orchestra has a fund of $250, which will be used with the $130 to buy the instrument. The loan from the student council is to be paid back by spring. Need of a harp to complete the symphonic instrumentation of the high school orchestra has been felt for some time. Efforts have been made to procure one, as there are also a number of pupils interested in learning to play a harp, who are not able to purchase the Instrument. A double action harp will be purchased. It will be second hand, as one of the new harps costs about $1,000. Only eight pupils will be privileged to study with, the instrument. Signor

Pasquale Montani, the celebrated harpist, of Indianapolis, will come once a week to instruct the harp pupils. Signor Montani is also a teacher of a number of other instruments and probably will teach other pupils in the city during his visits.

GOV. M'CRAY URGES

ADOPTION OF COUNTY UNIT SCHOOL SYSTEM (Bv Associated Press) INDIANAPOLIS, Jan. 10. Governor

McCray and Dr. George II. Tapy, head of the pedagogy department of Wabash college, in addressing a noonday lunch today attended by leaders of the legislature, business and professional men urged the adoption of the county

unit system of school administration

in the interests of economy and effi

ciency. Both declared that the change

from the township to the county sys

tem, which is one of tli3 main ques

tions to be considered by the legisla

ture at its present session, would bring noteworthy improvement of all rural schools in the state. Among the legislative leaders at

tending the lunch, which was given by

the Kiwanis club, as the first important public gathering in behalf of the

county unit system since the opening of the legislature, were Speaker Ray

Morgan, Lieutenant-Governor Emmett

F. Branch, Senator Cravens, Rep.

Gottschalk, Rep. Ahlgre'n and Senator

Swain, chairman of the senate education committee. Mr. Ahlgren is the

Republican floor leader and also chair

man of the house education committee.

Urges County Visit. "Of the several recommendations of

the Indiana Education Survey Com

mission, said Governor McCray, "none is so important as the proposal to establish the county unit of school ad

ministration. I have great faith in it

as a means of Improving the rural

schools of the state. I believe its

adoption would be the most construc

tive step the state could take in secur

ing better schools and in developing

greater economy in school expenditures."

After pointing out that the survev

commission had recommended- the

adoption of the county unit after a

year s study of Indiana schools, Gov.

McCray also showed that educational experts were agreed on the advisability of the change. However, the Governor said he would favor the change on the showing of the survey that "the per capita cost of the rural schools greatly exceeds the per capita cost of the city schools, while at the same time the pupils of the rural schools are from one to two years behind city pupils iu their studies."

"The only workable plan for secur-lia

tun tuucauuuai opportunities lor uie country child equal to those possessed by the city child'', added Gov. McCray, "is the county unit -plan of organizing and administering the schools."
