Four Out of Thirteen Special Rules. I

day or so ago very warm in his

their deportment and general behav

there must be some force b'esides their t

in this pleasant condition, so he look-,

He found thirteen special rules-good.

vhen this is taken into consideration,

Newberry now has two of the best
nills in the State, with a combined
apita' of nearly a million dollars, and
vhich have been remarkably success

The minor details have not yet beei
worked out, but it is authoritativel3

Mr. G. C. Huntington, of Charlotte, M. C.
N. C., interstate secretary of the two The
Carolinas, was present and made 'an aftert
earnest address in which he outlined ficien
the' growth of the work of the organi- bable
zation. In ten years, he said, the most'
value of the property owned by the Endez
Y. M. C. A.'s of the two Carolinas had seasoi
increased from $108,000 in 1900 to
A $523,000, approximately, at the time Bec
of the holding the recent convention prom]
in Anderson. Since that time over every
hse
$200,000 had been raised in building hins
subscriptions, and it was expected Ing
that in a year $300,000 more would teams
be raised, bringing the aggregate up ergy,
to a million dollars. He discussed the fando

Mr. A. C. Jones, who is a member Wessi

one of the most enthusiastic work- The
ers in the cause in South Carolina, at 4.3
made an earnest plea for united ac- man,
tion. He said he bellevea this was the on th
most important gathering held in in thE
Newberry^in many years. He outlin- for hi:
ed the plans which had been consid- be as:
ered fore the remodelling of the old you o
building, and said he believed the worth
people would vote to turn it over to
the Y. M. C. A., and that he had nol

prove it could readily be raised. Mr. One
Jones has been connected directly
and indirectly with the Y. M. C. A. y
for 34.years, and for 20 years has been t
a member of the State committee. It
was largely due to his efforts that the FRES
present movement in Newberry was will
brought .about, and ii it is successful- bre;
ly carried through no small part of fres
the credit will be due to him. goo
Other talks were made by citizens Res
interested, and there was a full at d --
free discussion.DI
It is proposed, if $25,000 can be obs<
raised and the building secured, to mor
put two additional stories on build- is al
ing as it now stands, which would
give a building of four stories and aFUi
basement. In the lower story, in ad- witi
dition to reading room, etc., it is pro
posed to put rest rooms which may lg
be used by the ladies of the county
upon their trips to Newbe,rry, and LOST

The whole project is to make of it a wat<
county Y. M. C. A. building, in which suit
the whole county will have a part and Iat E
may take a pride. In the two addi- 7-12
tional stories would be placed the
dormitories, and it is believed that BARB
such a plant 'would be practically self- clas
sustaining from the beginning. a
At the meeting on Monday nighit all 'Frid
were agreed, and heartily agreed, up- vite
on the wisdom of seeking to secure a
Y. M. C. A. for Newberry, and there
