Ten young men are canvassing South
Harwell: with application blanks for
membership in the Young Men’s Chris-
tian association, which it is purposed to
organize if sufficient members can be ob-
tained. E. T. Bates, general secretary
for Connecticut, who visited here last
month, believes that a Young Men's
Christian association can be established
here. He has advised, however, waiting
for two hundred applications before tak-
ing any further steps in the matter. The
Young Men’s Christian League, J. A.
Richardson, president, which holds its
meetings in Knudsen’s Hall, Chestnut
street, numbers thirty members, who are
unanimously agreed in their desire ti
assimilate that society with a local
Young Men‘s Christian association.
should one be formed. There would be
a limited membership and a full mem-
bership. the former to include the use
of reading room and piano and the on-
tree to all the entertainments and re-
ceptions of the association, the latter to
include, besides the above-mentioned
privileges, the use of gymnasium and
bath and any etceteras that may be ad-
ded later.

There has been some discussion over
the question of accommodations for a
Young Men’s Christian association. The
only apartments that seem to meet all
the requirements of the case are the
gymnasium and rooms in Dono-
van's block, Washington street. Mr.
Donovan has agreed to let these for this
purpose, with bath, heat and gymnastic
apparatus for the moderate sum of $11)

- per month. All the association would
have to provide for would be light and
water. It is estimated that $1,600 per
onnnm would cover the total expense.

Formerly, when efforts were made to
organize a Young Men’s Christian asso-
ciation in South Norwalk, the plan fol-
lowed was to call first upon business
men, asking them to pledge their sup-
port to the organization. Some of them
objected on the ground that it would in
all likelihbod be a failure; that the town
could not support such an institnlion:
that those who needed help Would not
join the association, and, finally, that
those who were blessed with good homes
ought to spend their leisure time in
them and not go J'gadding 'round" to
Young Men’s Christian associations,
Young Men's Leagues, and the like.

The supporters of the project would
reply to these arguments by citing the
success of the Young Men's Christian
association in Bridgeport, New Haven,
Meriden and cities no larger nor richer
than South Norwalk. They argued that
a large percentage of young men do not
have attractive homes, but that very
few of them could not afford at least a
limited membership in the association;
that, asit is now, in South Nurwalk i1
is a choice with many of them between
the street corner and the saloon, and
that even those who have good homes
are not free from temptations. which the
association, by using counter influences,
enders less dangerous.

They continued, “Say what you will
about the right or wrong of the matter,
the fact remains that very few young
men will spend all of their evenings at
home." They added, ”The influence of
the Young Men's Christian asmintlon
has always been, is now and probably
willblwaysbe on the side of good morals.
good manners, and education, to say
nothing of that higher ideal, which In-
cludes all these, Christian living.” They
would finish with the remark that. in
their opinion, Instead of flouth Norwalk
lining unable to afford a Young Men's
Christian association, it could not af~
ford to do without one and all that it
means for young men.

This time, they lay, it is purported to
getathe young men themselm.get their
opinions, and, if possible, their appllcw
than for membership. Then, if they
favor the idea of having a local organic»
alien, the older men may be asked to
contribute mewhat to its support; but
only until such time as it shall become
sufficiently mature to provide for its
own sustenance.

How Thins Will lime In its Sim Trade in
M Install. '
Thunders is backfrom Boston and the
big shoe sale. In much talked about, is
now on in all its glory—the biggest sale
of footwear. without a doubt, that ever
took place in Norwalk, down town, up
town, or anywhere around town.

A Sentinel reporter who dropped into
his attractive Washington street store,
this morning. found himself buried in
shoes. There ware shoes to the right of
him, shoes to the left of him, shoes all
around him from the caller’s bottom to
the topmost shelf of the big emporium.
Although the at k had just been open-
ed and arrange , the news of the big
sale had evidently begun to spread.
Clerks were as busy as the industrious
bee waiting on customers, and the gen-
ial Theodore was so occupied in giving
directions, with his usual suavity of
manner, that he could scarcely
find time to give the. newspaper man a
few pointers about the big sale.

He came home from Boston, he said,
sanguine that he could do a bigger busi~
ness this year than was ever done before
in the history of the shoe trade in Nor-
walk, and he talked on though he meant
every word he said. Helms purchased
thousands of pairs of Shims for matrons,
maids, misses and men, in all sizes and
styles, and at all prices. The require-
ments of the little toddlers have not been
overlooked, and dainty creations for
their tiny feet area delight to doting
mamas.

Entering the store you are. obliged to
elbow your way through tall columns of
shoes in boxes, each style plainly marked
at a reduced figure, while on the side.
walk is an overflow stock of some
thousand pairs, for which there is no
room in the big store. if Theodore
doesn‘t make things hum from now
until the robins nest again, then thr-
Sentincl is no prognosiicntoi‘ of events
that cast their shadows before them.

 

 

REV. HILL’S NEW OVEHCOAT.

Mr. Johnson, Who Went Securilylor it, Arrest-
ed for Assaull and Acquilled.

In the case of Rev. Johnson W. Hill

timony by Mrs. Nellie Davics and Fred-

also anxious that Mr. Hill pay the bal-
ance on an overcoat which Mr. Johnson
had gone security for of Francis & Co's
clothing store, and on which $5 had
been paid.

When Mr. Johnson met Rov. Hill. re-
cently, he asked him for the money and
papers, and expressed his opinion of him
rathcrlfreely.

Mr. Hill ran into W. S. Slurtcvam‘s
store to escape Mr. Johnson, and after-
wards had him arrested, charging him
with attempted assault.
