A joint meeting of the Y. M. C. A. and Y. W. C. A. was held in the large Chapel on the first Sunday of each month. These meetings were well attended and the programs rendered were spirited and edifying. Our regular Sunday evening meetings were as a rule well attended and the music and talks were spirited. The male quartet which was voluntarily organized for tl1e benefit of the Association rendered fine music. A Bible Study Class was organized with Prof. Roth as instructor. The class used the Normal Lessons, by Jesse Lyman Hurlbut, D. D. The Association observed the Week of Prayer by holding special prayer services each evening. These meetings were well attended and a general interest in spiritual work was awakened. The Association was represented by delegates at the District Conven- tion held at Shippensburg. Cumberland county, Pa., December 2-4, 1898. Among the principal participants in the discussions of the convention, were Hon. H. M. Hinkley, Mr. Lewis, Profs. Hoffman and Billet, H. W. Gibson, E. D. Soper and State Secretary S. M. Bard. One ofthe special features of the convention was the College Men's Conference which was held in the Normal School Chapel on Saturday afternoon. The conference was in charge of Secretary Soper and proved to be a pro- litable as well as interesting meeting. Dr. G. M. D. Eckels addressed the conference in words of welcome, and encouraged the young men to' con- tinue in the noble work they have undertaken. May the Young Men's Christian Association prove even more suc- cessful in the future than it has in the past and may it accomplish much good in the direction for which it was established. 21

Our genial friend, Dr. 'i I',f , Barton, had made all preparations for departure, but it X seems Providence had arranged things differently. Lo! x i when we arose on the day of our departure, Heaven was 0255 refreshing the earth with a beautiful shower. I l It was not very refreshing however to the students but rather depressing. When the chapel bell rang for our devotional exercises, I. am sure most of us would rather have gone to our rooms and wished that we had never heard ofchestnuts or chestnut excursions. However we trusted to Providence and hoped to see the King of Day shed his beaming rays upon the earth before it would he too late. But alas! we trusted in vain for a long time. 22
