Mogge’ s Gripping Talk.

On Manhood

Kiwanis OK. on ‘Y’ Drive

 

'i‘hc Norwalk Kiwanis club yester-
day endorsed the campaign of the
Y. iii. C. A. for “00.0011 to build a.
home here at a luncheon meeting in
the Hotel Mahaciieiuo after listening
to a stirring appeal from Ernest L.
Mogge of the finance bureau. in
cahrge of the drive headquarters. Mr.
Mogge made his appeal to the Ki-
wanlans as “business men. fathers of
boys. brothers of boys, and sons of

boys."
"Every progressive city has its
problems." he said in introduction."

Norwulii has these problems and the
most vital at the present time is the
necessity for the conservation and
training of character of Norwalk'e
youth." Renewing the phrase “the
’ boy of today is the head of the home
tomorrow." Mr. Mogge quoted Ralph
Waldo Emerson in saying:
"The supreme test of a city is the
men it sends forth."
"Man Is the Think"
“The man is the thing." said the

speaker. "it is a greater thing
L t o b e a m a n t h a n b a a.
merchant. g r e a t e r then to be

men. It does not need more force. it
does not need more speed. nor yet
more beauty. The women. we might
sat’. provide enough of that. Men
have little enough beauty if 1 take
the appearance of you Kiwanians as
a criterion. liut handsoms is es
handsome does and so your merits
are known.

"The cry of the day is for man-
hood because man is greater than
any thing he does or creates. The art-
ist paints a wonderful picture: it is
hung fin the walls of a salon and we
exclai about its beauty and blend-
ing of colors. But the artist is great-
er than the picture he has created
‘ The sculptor makes a statue but as a.
man he is a greater object than his
creation.

“1‘" Creates Manhood.

“The Y. M. C. A. is in the business
of creating manhood, Better man-
hood. And don't forget that it’s not
bank balances that make a. city. it is
its manhood. The "Y" is not an ex-
periment. It has 80 years of success
behind it At the end of the year
following the war it had :110. 800.-
000 in property valuation to its cre-
dit. At the end of 1925 the figure
had grown to $180,000,000, an in-
crease of 370.000.000. It operates on
two main objectives: prevention and
construction." he said.

Youth is prominent. the speaker
declared. in the perpetration of
crime. and he quoted Horace Mann’s
statement to the effect that after the
age of 21 few men begin a. life of
' 1 virute or end one of vice as proof
that youth must be molded in char-
... acter early. "We ought to make it
‘ hard for a boy to go wrong and easy
for one to go right." he stated.

0f 6. 453 boys before a certain
court of Justice. he pointed out but
four ever had membership in the 1'.
M. C. A.

"Over a given period of time." he
continued. the "if" justifies every
cent it asks through the prevention
of future cost to the taxpayers for
the building and maintenance of
jails. It is the cheapest form of
community insurance.

Only Character Endurcs

Before closing. he quoted Charles
1 M. Schwab's declaration that the
country can get enough business and
enough money but what business
men need is more character in
young men. ‘Every manufactured
product is on its way to the scrap
heap the minute it leaves the fac-
tory. The only thing that endures
is character.

The building proposed for Nor-
waik will not be solely for the use of
boys and men. it was stated. Wom-
en and girls will have certain ap-
pointed hours to use the swimming

pool and other facilities. The speak-
cr concluded his talk' after an ex-
position of the uses. the full 8400.-
000 will be put to and the reasons
why that amount is required.

John Cavanagh presented the res:
' olution to the club endorsing the
campaign. with a brief speech in
support. in which he declared that
a movement for such an institution
has been under way here for ten
years as a. community proposition
but that he realizes the Y. M. C. A
would be the best organisation to
maintain such a building after it
was erected. The resolution was
forwarded to the public relations
committee.

In the course of the luncheon.

. President George H. Barnes appeal-
1‘; ed to the members to attend the fu-
g. ncral Saturday of William c. Jessup.
late member of the club. and after-
ward said that he had forwarded the
’ testimonial of the club to Mrs. Jes-
y sup.
E Frederick Bryant won the attend-
L ance prize for the day on the draw-
1.1 ing. It happened to be I. theroine-
" ter. Anthony Carboni spoke briefly
on the need for more bowlers if the
season against the Lions and Torea-
dor teams is to be a success. Super-
intendent of Schools John Lnnd
read an excerpt from the Kiwanis
magazine.
