No association In the Northwest and ' comparatively few In the United States, fcave made more generous provision for ; the educational side of Its work than has the Portland association In its new build ln. Practically one-third of the entire floor space will be devoted exclusively to ' the Educational Department. This Is but a recognition of the fact that this is the day of trained young- men. Commercial and Industrial problem are rapidly bring. Ins about a revolution in our educational system, and men who keep abreast with the times are men who are students of their work. The Ti M. C. A. In providing educational work sufficiently diversified in character to meet the demands of a large number of trades and professions at a time during the day or evening when men are com paratively free. Is attempting a unique work. It is practically an Educational Department Store, with trained special ists at the heads of each department. . The college graduate of the classical school and course is frequently helpless in the modern commercial and Industrial center as far as making a living? He finds that the demand Is for the man that knows bow to do some one thing, and la an expert or a specialist. In Portland during the past 13 years there has grown up a large educational institution known as'the Educational De partment of the -T. M. C A., that has fitted hundreds of young men for special tailings, to meet the practical conditions cf every-day business and industrial life. The Unit System. .Men may come to this school and take a single class or a group of classes or a full course. They can take these classes In the day time or In the evening hours. They can cocne twice a week or every right In the week, or one day in the week or every day In the week. The- Idea is to give the studies at the time and in the way that will meet the needs and condi tions of the men attending. The Key to Success. The management of the school main tains that their success is not due to the equipment, and 1n the large new building In many subjects It is almost Ideal, but comes from the selection of the best pos sible teacher for each subject. Fred B. Pratt, the head of Pratt Institute, of Brooklyn, recently pointed out to those in charge of the local Institution that they had the very best kind of teachers, name, ly, those who were most of the time en gaged In the practical affairs of life, and so could bring actual business conditions to the class and laboratory. Forty teach ers are employed for their evening hours, while three experienced educators give their entire time In supervising this work, and special flay teachers are employed for various branches. The faculty given be low reveals the strength of this policy: Fletcher Linn, Chairman Educational Committee, Robert C. French, Educational Di rector. J.

AGENTS CROSS GLOVES LARGEST RETAIL DRUG STORE IN AMERICA AGENTS LIKLY TRUNKS condncted as well as classe In pharmar.r and special trades chemistry. In --nnec- tlon with this laboratory Is a classroom and a small mining and assaying labor atory, fitted with furnace for baking ores and making assays. A large room is the wood-working shop. where there are lathes, band saws, cir cular saws, planers, with a 10-horsepower motor as well as a model equipment of 20 sets of the latest carpenter's Ijola. Special lines of woodworking, such as stair building, framing, wood carving. wood turning and the care of tools are taught in this room. The electrical laboratory is aeing equipped to give Instruction in electrical machinery, wiring, meter reading and the practical working and handling of elec trical apparatus. In this room Is also given the instruction of the motor school. fitting men to handle and repair gasoline and electric motors, both antos and launches. This te a part of the regular work of the automobile course, which has been given by the association for the past three years. Two new courses arranged for this year are bricklaying and reinforced concrete construction. This school has been the stimulant to hundreds of young men In fitting them for advanced work In college or univer sity. Special arrangement has been made for the classes of this character this year. The Working Boys' School. While the association stands for Keep ing the boy in the public school as long as possible, they recognize that for vari ous reasons it is inevitable that.. a large number of boys leave school at tne age of 14 and are compelled to become bread winners. . The association has arranged for a working boys' evening school, meet ing three nights a week, to give these boys an educational opportunity. The work Is so arranged that they also have the use of the gymnasium and swimming pool, and the schooling at ths Y. M. C. A. becomes fun as well as work to the boy. The Map of Europe Olass. Hundreds of foreigners have learned to speak and read and write the English language in the association. A number of teachers Are employed In this work. The class has been dubbed the "Map of Europe C16S," because men have been in it from almost every country In Eu rope; last year there were a number of Japanese and Hindoos. A most practi cal method of learning the language is used. The men begin at once to acquire words and sentences, and in this' way build up a working knowledge of the language. The Cost. While a fee Is charged for each class and course given at the association, it la not expected that this fee shall pay for maintaining the school. The fees are nor mal, and the school Is not run to make money; but for the good of the men who avail themselves of the privileges.

ECCMMCi Em Is an ordeal which all women approacn witn indescribable fear, for nothing compares with the pain and horror of child birth. The thought of the sufferine and dancer in store for her, robs the expectant mother of all pleasant anticipations of the coming event, .and casts over her a shadow of gloom which cannot be shaken off. Thousands of women have found that the use of Mother's Friend during pregnancy robs confinement of all pain and danger, and insures safety to life of mother and child. This scientific liniment is a God-send to all women at the time of their most critical trial. Not onlv does Mother's Friend carry women safely through the perils of child-birth, but its use gently prepares the system . for the coming event, pre vents "morning sickness" and other discomforts of this period.
