Senator Stanfield charged O.

Boys’ work In Ashland was
given an added and enthusias­
tic impetus last night at the
annual meeting and banquet of
the Ashland Y. M. C. A. in tho
Llthla Springs hotel.
Fathers
and mothers and boys filled the
large dining room to capacity
and listened for nearly three
hours to messages from boys and
the men who work with boys.
As a climax to the splendid
gathering there was given an
enthusiastic
talk
by J.

Portland that he might keep his
promised engagement with the
parents and boys of Ashland.
