On the return of some young
men from London to this contin­
ent, the appeal they made for the
organization of Y. M. C. A.'s met
speedy and almost simultaneous
response in Montreal and Boston.
I t was in these two cities, quite
independently of one another,
that the first two organizations in
North America, bearing the name
Y. M. C. A., were formed ,one in
Montreal on November 25, 1861,
the other in Boston on December
29, 1851.
The Boston Association started

every student who matriculates at a Normal School con­
sciously dedicates himself to preparation for a career which
entails a responsibility greater than that of any other pro- ,
