Slxty-thrco years ago December 20, 18C1 tlio fitst Young Men's Christian Association was organised in tlio United Slntes. In tlio winter of 1850, G. M. Vandcrllp, n Colum bia University student, wlillo on his way to Edinburgh University, stop ped In London. Ho did not like tlio prices lio had to pay for foods In ros- tniimnts. Strolling through Groilmm Btroot lonely and looking for a cheap or rcstuurant, ho walked Into a largo stucco building over tho door of which was written "V. M. C. A." Ho found cheer and comfort, frlonds, books, newspapers and cheap and ex cellent food. Ho had stepped from the cold, Htrango strcot Into n now world. Ho wrote an onthuslaHtlc descriptive loiter to tho lloston Watchman and Hoflector. TIioiiiiib V. Sullivan, a retired sea captain of lloston, saw tho loltor, and went In London to noo tho Institution, llo re turned to lloston with nil I ho nrdnr and zeal that had Inspired George Williams to organlzo tho rlrst Y. M. ('. A. in Loudon on .In no Cth, ISM. The old Bn captain, who had been' n score of Union around tho globe In ii Bailing ship, gathered a little baud of young men In the old South Meet ing IIoilso In Ronton niul there was born tho flist American Y. M. (.'. A. Under the English association, tho Ilonton association laid great stress upon tho association an a social re sort. Kb success waa phenomenal from tlio nlart. Til UN Ono hundred and twonty-nlno years ago January , tlio lassachu BCttH Ilumniio Society built Uh first hut on Lovoll's Island near Doston ,to succor tho Htrauded mniiners n- ,long tho dangerous and dosolato Capo Cod Const. From that llttlo dark red hut, tho iirst house of i mercy or tno son to do erectoii, nroue I a sroro of llko hutii along tho const that had boon blenched with tho jbo lies of snllors for two centuries. In 1807 tho flrsf llfo boat station I was organized at Coluissct and nut o (.inn sprung iiiu iiiiihi eiiiciun llfo snvlng sorvlco of nil tho sovcu Isous. At first if tho wreclcod and frozen snllor wero lucky enough to nnd nt ono ot those huts ho found dry clothing and food and boddlng and wood and tho old flint and tinder to kludlo n flro. Tills now hnvou of rofugo lacked only the volco of n human brothor to wol como him. It was on a stormy .March night In 1807 that tho first llfo boat on tho Amorlcnii const bnttlod through tho raging uorf and picked up n half dozou enllors from a stranded schooner. In IS 18 Con gross recognized tho noblo work of this society by granting it nu appro priation of $10,000. Thou tlio (lev eminent organized a small sorvlco of Its own on Capo Cod.
