CONCERNING  A  COLLEGE 
Y. M. C A.  SECRETARY. 

T he  following  is  self-explanatory: 

A G R I C U L T U R AL  C O L L E G E,  Mich. 
May  8th,  1903. 

To  those  interested:— 

At  a meeting  held  some  time  ago 
at  the  president's  office,—at  which 
were  present  State  Secretary  Buell 
and  State  Student  Secretary  H u r r y, 
— for  the  purpose  of  considering  the 
advisability  of  appointing  and  main 
taining  a  Y.  M.  C.  A.  secretary 
here  at  the  College, the  undersigned 
were  appointed  a committee  to solicit 
subscriptions  from  the  faculty. 

In  order  that  all  interested  in  the 
enterprise  might  have  a clear  under 
standing  of  it, our  committee  asked 
Secretary  Buell  to  write  a  letter  set 
ting  forth,  as  he  saw it, the  oppor 
tunity  for  and  need  of  a  secretary  at 
M.  A.  C,  and  we  take  this  oppor 
tunity  to  call  your  attention  to  the 
enclosed  letter. 

At 

same  meeting 

A  careful  estimate  has  placed  the 
expense  of  maintaining  a  Secretary 
at  $600.00  to  $700.00  in  addition  to 
the  $300.00  which  the  Y.  M.  C. A. 
has  been  spending  in  the  past  for 
current  expenses.

body. 
This  committee  has  been 
at  work  for sometime, and is  assured 
that  one-half  of  the  necessary  ex 
pense  will  be furnished  by  voluntary 
subscriptions  from  the  students  and 
regular  Y. M.  C.  A.  dues. 

the 

T he  Secretary  of  the  College  will 
be  Treasurer  of  this 
subscription 
fund  and  the  money  will  be  paid 
out  only  upon  an  order  from  an 
Advisory  Committee.  This  com 
mittee  to  be  composed  of  two ( 2) 
members 
the  Faculty  and 
three  ( 3)  from  the Y. M.  C. A. 

from 

It  has  been  suggested  that,  inas 
much  as  the  secretary  will  need  to 
be  paid  monthly,  that  the  subscrip 
tion  paper  be  arranged  for  monthly 
payments, and  it will  be so  arranged. 
M r.  Decker,  president  of  the  Y. 
M.  C. A .,  will  call  upon  you  in  a 
few  days  to  receive  subscriptions  for 
this  movement,  which  we  commend 
to  your  careful  consideration,  and 
trust  that  you will  feel  disposed  to 
give  it  material  aid.

Committee. 

To  those  interested: 

In  view  of  the  contemplated  em 
ployment  of  a General  Secretary  by 
the  Y o u ng  Men's  Christian  Associa 
tion  of  the Agricultural  College,  I 
wish  to  state  a  few  of  the  reasons 
for  such  a  step  which  seem  to  me 
important.

3.  T h ey  are  mostly  grouped  in 
dormitories, and committee  work can 
therefore  be  made  much  more  effec 
tive.  This  "committee-training" of 
a  young  man to  use  his  daily  influ 
ence  over  his  fellows  for  their  bet 
terment  is  an  invaluable  acquisition 
to  his college  course. 

4.  From

1.  To  plan  and  unify  the  work  of 
the  present  committee  force  requires 
more  time  than  the student  officers 
of  the  Association  can  give  and 
properly  keep  up  with  their  studies. 
To  enlarge  the  present  committee 
force  so  as  to  reach  the  entire  stu 
dent  body  and  give  each  man  valu 
able  training  in  committee  service  is 
impracticable  without  a 
therefore 
secretary  giving  his  entire  time  and 
thought  to  the  problem. 
training 
" committee 
school" for personal  service  to  others 
needs  more than  purely  student  tutors 
who  leave college  as fast  as they  have 
accumulated  an  experience  for  them 
selves  that  would  make  them  valu 
able  instructors  of  others. 
It  needs 
a  director  w ho knows  how to  inspire 
and  then  how  to  train  the  students 
in  definite  practical  service.

A  general  secretary  could  visit  stu 
dents  in  their  rooms,  etc., and  win 
their  confidence  and  wisely  apply 
the  remedy. 

4.  If  the association  is to be a  pos 

itive  factor 
in  the  institution  and 
command  the  respect  of  the  entire 
student  body,  it  must  plan  and  exe

these 
communities  among  which 
young  men  will  be  looked  upon  to 
become 
leaders,  certainly  calls  for 
the  best  and  widest  leadership  that 
can  be obtained.  A  general  secre 
tary,  w ho shall  direct  the  forces  to 
this  end, is therefore  essential. 

So  thoroughly  are both  M r. Chas. 
D.  H u r r e y,  our  state  student  secre 
tary,  and  myself  convinced  of  the 
importance  of  this  step  being  taken 
at  the Agricultural  College, that  we 
want  to have  a share  with  the  faculty 
in  supporting  it.  M r. H u r r ey  will 
be  one of  ten  to  give  $10, and  I  will 
be  one  of  five  from  the  faculty  to 
give  $25 towards  attaining  this  ob 
ject  the coming  year. 

Trusting  that  this  movement  may 
meet  your  hearty  approval  and  sup

Yours  sincerely,

COMPETITIVE DRILL. 

Last  evening  the  first  competitive 
drill  for  the spring  term  took  place. 
Captain  Wheeler  won the  Captain's 
medal 
and  Sergeant  Sweet  the 
Sergeant's  medal,  the  competition 
between  Messrs.  Sweet  and  Merick 
being 
very  close.  Col.  Shubel, 
Captain  Durst  and  Lieut.  Baker 
made  the  awards. 

T he  drill  was  an  unusually  good 
one  and  all  the  companies  were 
handled  well.  A

Isaiah  4 4:  17.  " A nd  the 
residue  thereof  he  maketh  a  god, 
even  his  graven  image,"  etc.  T he 
spirit  of  the  text  is,  the  first  and

the  events  of  home  field  day  were 
run  off,  the  remaining  events  being 
run  off  in the  early  part  of  the  after- 
noon. 
In  comparatively  few  of  the 
events  were  the  winners  pushed  to 
the  limit.  T he  day  was  ideal,  and, 
taken  all  in  all, M.  A. C.  has reason 
to  have  faith  in  her  track  team.

God.  All  through  the  history  of 
man's  activities  from  the  first  to  the 
last,  only  those  lives  have  been  truly 
great  that  have  given  the  first  and 
best, not  to  self,  but  to  others  and 
God.  T r u e,  lasting  happiness  comes 
only  from  being  the  most  for  others, 
not  self.  On  the  imposing  monu 
ment  to  the  memory  of  that  great 
character,  Pestalozzi,  is  the  epitaph 
— " F or  himself  nothing,  for  others 
all."  Germany  loves  that  name  as 
herself  for  he  was  a  real  part  of 
Germany.  Does  it  pay  to  live  all 
for  self  ?  Answer  !

score  of  4  to  3.

every  one saw  his  money's  worth  of 
sport.  On  Wednesday  De  P a uw

10  to  1 by  Notre  Dame,  whom  they 
had  previously  defeated  this  season 
by  a  decisive  score.

schools  attended  t he

men  in  the  most  effective  and  aggres 
sive  methods  of Christian  w o r k;  the

social  times.  These  afternoons  gave 
an  opportunity  which  is  rarely  found

men 
from  other  colleges,  and  for 
students  of  the  secondary  schools  to

of  Y a l e;  Hutchinson,  of  Princeton; 
Marshall,  of  Columbia,  and  M c-
Cracken,  of  Pennsylvania.  One  of 
the  most  interesting  forms  of  recre 
ation  at  this  conference  is the  Fourth 
the  uni 
of  J u ly  celebration,  which 
versal  opinion  of those  in  attendance 
in  past  years  adjudges  to be  the  most 
unique  of its  kind  in existence.  In 
the  afternoon  a  field  day  is held,  and 
the  various  colleges  compete  in  all 
manner  of athletic  contests.  In  the 
evening  the  college  delegations are 
large  audito

themselves 
engage  lustily  in  college  yells  and

May  look  alike  to  you,  but  there  Is  a 
very  great  difference  in the  quality  we  han 
dle  and  that  sold  by  some  other  markets. 
We handle  none  but  the  very  best.  Like 
the  pudding,  the  proof  of good  meats  is  In 
the  eating.  A  trial  will  convince  you  that 
you  ought  to trade  with  us.
