The Young Men's Christian Asso
ciaticn cf Spartanburg was organized
early in 1903, and began work in
April, 1904. Its existence was made
possible by the liberality of the citizens
cf Spartanburg.
yy The association has rented a home
ites !ln(1 has equipped it thorougly for
orj- the work. The equipment consists
)erg nei|t and attractive furniture for
I j.-. tho various rooms, including rugs
e and over two hundred chairs for the
Mcr- assembly hall, suitable rugs and furII
niture f<;r the parlor, reading room
lj,(_ and cflice, and also for the thirteen
, bed rooms on the upper iloor. Included
in this furniture is the nec
^ e.ssary bedding, linen, and towels for
* . the sleeping rot ins, and also towels
for the baths. In addition, the associate
n has supplied the bath rooms
wit.i shower fixtures, tub, and conveniences,
and the gymnasium with
a full complement ot apparatus.
..... Besides the tcorns furnisliol bv
the association, three have been furnished
for the junior department by
tiie family t I the late Dr. C. 10. Fleming
as a memorial to him.
A handsome piano, given to the assceiaticn
by Mrs. Virginia Cannon
lias proved very useful in the soeial
r[( and religions meetings.
Y \ The resources of the association
111 have consisted of the donations received,
the rent from the dormitories
and the fees from the members, and
all of this has been spent in equipment
and expenses as outlined.
The work is three-fold?spiritual,
mental and physical?and they rank
in importance in the order named.
The first year,s report of the worl>
issued January 1, 190a, shows that
thirty-one gospel meetings had been
held, with a total attendance cf 5,326
>> men, an average cf 172. In these

personally dealt with, and sixty-one
have confessed Christ.
Bible classes have been conducted,
in which eleven lectures have been
given to an average audience of BO
men, or a total attendance of 330.
A night school has been organized
which has enrolled men from 45
\cars cf age down, representing all
occupations, and all anxious to avail
themselves of the opportunity for
soli improvement.
The attendance cf the school has
1 e:n irregular on the part of some
pupils, and a number have dropped

rogularh attending the school. lOnglish.
arithmetic, bookkeeping and
penmanship tire here taught by some
( I the best teachers in the city.
The reading room is stocked with
twenty-two of the best periodicals,
six daily papers and 575 well selected
hooks. These are open alike to
mouthers and visiters.
rilYMCAL IfWWUTMENT.
The physical development of our
members lias not been neglected.
Three classes have been organized
by tno physical director, in which exercises
fitted respectively for busl_k
ness men, younger men and boys ere
y givi i These classes meet threj
times a week each, and have a largt
enrollment of members.
An important, adjunct to the "gym"

SOCIAL.
An important side cf cur work is
the social. Through it the members
are brought into contact with one
another through favorable circumstances,
and are prevented from resorting
to undesirable places for their
social life and amusement. Our
games, our reading rcom, and our
altogether attractive home have been
important factors in this part cf our
work. Nor can I leave this subject
without z grateful acknowledgement
cf aid given by the woman's auxiliary,
both in helping at our receptions,
and supervising cur housekeeping.
and also in a financial way.
