A Suggestion.
“It seems important that every col
lege student should make large use
of the advantages that this Y. M. C.
A. convention will bring to us. It
will be many years perhaps before
these advantages come to us again.
Let us make the largest use of these
men and let us appropriate the mes
sages that are brought to us.
“Let us not forget that the dele
gates are our guests. It is the duty
of each of us to assist in entertain
ment. Remember that these men
will get their impression of the col
lege from the way we act and talk.
Let no incident occur to mar the suc
cess of these three days. This will
be the severest test that has been
made on us to entertain on a large
scale, but I have no fear of the re
sult. I am sure that the same quality
of entertainment that is shown to
ward visiting athletic teams will be
shown our guests on this occasion.
If we meet this standard nothing
more could be expected.”
PRESIDENT W. B. BIZZELL.

DR. FISHER TO TELL OF
Y. M. C. A. ATHLETICS
One of the special features to be
discussed at the State conention of
the Texas Young Men's Christian As
sociations, will be the physical de
partment of the associations.
The Young Men’s Christian Asso
ciation, it is said, was the pioneer or
ganization in giving attention to the
physical well being of young men and
boys of the cities under wholesome
influences. It is known that some
years ago most of the physical work
carried on in the nation was conduct
ed by professionals whose aim in
most cases was to make pugilists or
professional athletes of certain types.
The Young Men’s Christian Associa
tion conceived the idea that a strong
body could well go with a developed
mind and well rounded character, and
therefore called to positions of lead
ership physical directors who entered
the association work in its physical
department that they might occupy
positions giving them opportunity to
develop all round Christian manhood.
The real leader of association physi
cal directors of America is Dr. George
J. Fisher of New York City, who will
be present at the convention and dis
cuss the physical work of the asso
ciation. Dr. Fisher is looked upon
as a real leader in his sphere, and is
counselled with not only by associa
tion men, but with leaders in schools
and with other men having to do with
physical and moral well being of men.
There are 637 gymnasiums connect
ed with the associations and in ad
dition 173 athletic fields. During the
last year practically 300,000 different
men and boys took physical exercise
regularly in the associations.
STATE CONVENTION
OF Y. M. C. A. FEB. 18
That the State convention of the
Texas Young Men’s Christian Asso
ciations, to be held at the A. & M.
College, February 18-21, will be a
gathering of great importance and un
usual significance, is the statement of
L. A. Coulter of Dallas, State secre
tary of the Y. M. C. A. That it will
leave its impression on the young
manhood of the State, is another
statement of Mr. Coulter.
Speakers prominent in religious
work not only in Texas, but in the
nation, will address the convention of
Christian workers. Among them is
Dr. George W. Truett of the First
Baptist Church, Dallas, known the
country over as a pastor preacher;
Dr. George J. Fisher, secretary of the
international committee for physical
work, is another speaker. James A.
Whitmore, secretary of the interna
tional committee for the reigious
work department, and who was leader
of one of the teams of experts in the
Men and Religion Forward Movement,
will also attend the convention and
address the delegates. Other speak
ers are G. S. Billheimer, executive
secretary of the Southwest, with
headquarters in Denver; Charles G.
Hurrey, senior secretary of the stu
dent department of the international
committee, with headquarters in New
York City; John L. Hunter, secretary
of the college work in Texas, and
others.
The sessions of the convention will
be attended by about 300 delegates
representing the city, railroad and
