T wish In the following words to tftt the men of this city know what they have had a large part In doing drarlng the past months. 1 Between eventy-flve and one hundred of the ftostncss men of thla city have dur Big the past nine months been sup porting the Y. OP. C. A. in La Grande. Some have supported only In a finan cial way, others have aided both fin ancially and In personal Interest Still others have aided the work won derfully by service and Interest alone. To all of these men goes the redlt for work done during the past wine months la our little growing Y. X. C. A, No one department of the association work could be well organ ised or completely handled though something has been done along many f the usual lines of activity. . Physical Dtnortment. . The first part that the association took In the physical activities of La Brando was to aid in starting off, what proved to be a very Interesting erfea of Twilight League baseball game.s The swimming classes for Joys at Ora Dell with sometimes fifty toys tn at one time was another mall part , of our activities. The gymnasium work supplied during the winter months has been as succers ful as might have been expected with small amount of equipment Religions Work. ' f The religions work has been on tned largely to the 8unday afternoon meetings for men. During the ?'me ft rhee moetlnga have keen held . i tendawe lias boen close ired. The i speakers for .. ."gt have come from as far east as Boise, Tdnho, and as fnr . Trmla Alarm at Pendleton. (Pendleton' East Oregonlan.) At the East Court ; street railroad crossing where the little Grubb girl was killed severs weeks ago the O. W. R. & N. company has installed a warning bell, the work have -been done yesterday. As a resut of the Improvement travel across the cross ing will be safeguarded and' It is hoped to prevent any further acci dents there' ' f : ' ' "We have Installed the warning bell on East Court street ana we. wiij place balls at other crossings in the city if the city authorities or the peo ple wish to do so," stated T. F. O'Brien, local agent, to the East Ore gonlan today. According to Mr. O'Brien he will notify the city offi cials so that effect. . In the view of Mr. O'Brien It would be futile to place bells on the crossings near the depot as f the switch engine would keep such bells ringing almost unuousiy. However, ne regaras u aj Kssible jthe city may wish a. warn ing bell ntj West Webb or West Alta crossings'. Jlf so the bell will be pro vided. i " J ' i . went as Salem, Oregon.

Besides the swimming boys have bad many hikes and val uable training in other way.s The Boy Scouts have learned some splen did things during the winter months. The Indians have 'flamed endurance, obedience and the value of friend ship. The boys gymnasium classes have been most popular during the winter. While less than fifty took advantage of the "gym", they have surely enjoyed It. We must not for get to mention our boys camp, i Sev enteen boys spent a happy week In camp. Thla year should see at least twice as many boys In camp. It was great. The little 'personal confer ences with Individual boys cannot be mentioned here, though Important.; . ' Employment. No record has been kept of the men and boys who have found positions through the Y. M. C. A. Both em ployers and those seeking employ ment have been served. . Socially. Socially the Y. M. C.
