EMINENT RELIGIOUS
WORKERS TO ATTEND
James A. Whitmore of New York,
who is to give several addresses at
the State convention of the Texas
Young Men’s Christian Associations,
is looked upon as one of the real
leaders in the ranks of the employed
force of the associations of America.
While Mr. Whitmore was at college
he took front rank among religious
workers among the students. He was
also prominent in athletics. About
five years ago he was called to be
associated with Fred B. Smith as one
of the international secretaries. Since
that time he has traveled about the
country developing and strengthening
the religious work of the associations.
Mr. Whitmore has had considerable
part in developing the varied types of
religious work now carried on under
direction of the associations. He
works largely among railroad and city
men and devotes considerable time to
work for older boys. In the associa
tions there are four distinct lines of
religious work now carried on. First,
conducting religious meetings in as
sociation buildings, halls and theatres
for men and boys; second, the hold
ing of meetings at the noon hour for
men who are employed in shops and
factories; third, conducting Bible
classes; fourth, the organization of
personal work groups.
The last association year more than
7,000,000 boys and men were reported
as having attended religious gather
ing under the auspices of the Young
Men’s Christian Associations, and
there were over 135,000 different men
and boys enrolled in the Bible classes.
In the coming convention L. A. Coul
ter, the State secretary of the Texas
associations, says that special em
phasis will be laid upon discussion
which will mean a stronger religious
work among men and boys of the
State.
CHAPEL NOTES.
Dr. H. A. Boaz, president of the
Texas Woman’s College at Fort
Worth, filled the pulpit at the morn
ing service here on last Sunday in a
very creditable* manner. He brought
out very strongly the fact that “sterl
ing integrity” is sought after more
diligently at the present time than
ever before in the world’s history.
Dr. Boaz always spices his sermons
with enough wit to demand the un
divided attention of the college man.
And therefore everyone, also, grasps
the lesson of his sermon.
