PHONE S2 Jones PHONE 32 OFFICIAL, OPENING of Y.F,O,A. CLUB stOOMS. Large Gathering at Opening -Under- taking Highly Commended. The Y.P.C.A. club rooms for the young people of Exeter and commun- ity were formally opened and dedi- cated on Monday evening, when a large number of citizens packed the centre floor of the building, which was formally known as the Pickard Block, opposite the old Commercial Hotel. The program took the form of ad- dresses and musical numbers. Mr. J. S. Harvey filled the chair in a cape - able manner. The dedicating prayer was offered, up by Rev. J. D. Kestle. Mr. Harvey in his opening remarks said that in this young country we are making progress. The' highest conception of a nation is. that of a trustee of posterity. It difficult to arrive at the Valuation of a boy or girl: They are the nation's greatest asset .and if not properly cared for, may become a liability. A number of men had spent days- in fitting up a building for the boys without any financial remuneration. It was not 1n any way intended to take the pleee of the home but to co-operato with it for .the welfare of the young :people. Meets a Long -Felt Want. In the absence of Reeve B. W. F. li "Beavers who was unavoidably de- tained, . Mr. F. W. Gladman, chair- man of the School. I3oard, spoke on behalf of the Council and School1 Board: "If I were reeve," he said, "I would say that as citizens: we ap-1 predate to. the utmost the efforts of! the committee behind_ this move- ment, in- establishing such a long - felt JJ want in the community." He has always deplored.thefact that in years past there was nothing pro- vided to tate care of the leisure .hours of the -young people. He re- gretted to see so many young men standing around the street corners. Not that we are any worse than in other places, in fact, Exeter has a particularly clean record as a village that we Haight well be proud of. There are few crines or infractions of the law. Still the lack of some such place as this, has been felt. The - speaker said- some Might say it was, the work of the 'Connell, .but the- Coundil could ,notv,do: it all. The individual citizen has apart to play. :While not inaugurated .by the Coun- cil, the Council appreciates what has already been done. He hoped the scope of activites would be enlarged. Mr. Gladman said that the School Board 'welcomed such a movement. Similar questions had been discus- sed and at one time they spoke of putting in a gym. in connection with the high school. He hoped the time would come when an appointee of the Council and School Board were on .the executive to co-operate with them. Then the executive would. have every right to expect some financial backing from the town. Christian Church Fills Gap. Dr. Tillman in opening his address said that a school board should es- tablish some such institution. Since they care for the intellectual side of life, they should also care for the physical. There is one institution that always stands ready to fill the gap and that is the Christian Church. We have the Sunday School to look after the Christian life and the day school to look after the intellectual. here should be some institution to ook after the physical. We have been neglecting the physical side of stn doors on Sunday and closes them through the week, will not flourish. The young people have been provided with,. sltrt•Ciuedieree vi wi�ic t vvr should all be proud. This. Section Conmpa.ree With Best Rev. W. G. Ii. McAllister said that we live imm the best country in the world, and that this section corn - pares favorably with any part of- it. He was glad to know the community spirit Was finding expression and the young men should,,he enriched in Muscle, bead and heart. By every man petting _hie nilmtlrin•e, .r••, h•a Wheel, emminent success should come from the efforts. Mr. .Andrew Hicks, 1YI.P.P., was announced 'to speak but was pre- vented on account of illness. Pleas- ing solos were sung by Mrs. G. Wil liams,a.nd'Miss E. rollick. The James Street orchestra provided some splendid music. DIED IN CALIFORNIA. Word was received in town on Wednesday that Mrs. M. J. HiolLs, of Riverside; Calif., had died on Janu- ary 10th. No particulars ee to be death mains are being brought to Exeter for burial. Mrs. Hicks was a daugh- ter of the late Samuel Cobbledick.
