The First 100 Years

Al. this first meeting no one of the group present realized what would be the outcome of thLs meet- ing. If at that meetingbin 1844 you or I were to drop in with the idea of discouraging Georgi; W lama we could have easily done c0 by addressing them in tlih way: Gentlemen, l have listened with a great deal of interest to what you have to say about starting a Young Men's Christian Associa- tion but I am truly pessimistic u to its future. Do you realise Gen- tlemen that the idea of working with young men will get you and you won't. be able to let. it go? In 100 years the thing will be com- pletely out. of control.

Take the ycar 1944 for instance by that time this idea will have pushed out of this room in London all over the world to places you have not even heard of. It will ln- volve you lln bghysical “education and you w l supper ng g - riasiurns, swimming pools, athlgllc leagues, bowling alleys and hor- rifying steam rooms which will be the 1944 way of losing weight. You will be running everything from trade schools to universities, and into discussions of public af- fairs because young men will be politically minded. You will have to run dormitories and restaur- ants and lauzidrles and even bar- thnt will involve mil- lars.

You will find yourselves run-

ning hobby Kipups, discussion groups and inter racial groups; you will have serious religious responsibilities to youth. And that's not all. Because young men arg boys first ou will be shoulder- ed with Boys Departments and Boys’ Clubs and Boys‘ camps and a. lot of expensive and bothersome work with underprivileged b0 and delinquents. You'll be war - in with all shades of religious. poitlcal and social beliefs. You'd better drop the whole business I‘m warningyou. You haven't much money and this idea is lin- practical and will bankrupt you. n i944 you will have your great- est headache for then it. lhall be that war will ravage tho earth and your members will be imprisoned and killed by the thousands. . You will be given the responsi- |bility of working with six million iprisoners of war; wounded and friendless and uriem loyed will rc- turn to lands seeth ng with social and economic crises. You will have to deal with juvenile dellnrfiiency which will be definitely on t e increase; you will have to deal with youth in dire need. ‘The Y will not be al to 1t: you had better such dynamic id with youth. During the past 100 years the Y has met these prob- lems and thrived on them.

Tho Y of ‘Io-day

our . What is tile "Y" doing in occup- ied Europe‘! While the Association as a corporation no longer exists in tho occupied countries its mem- bers and staffs hold together and serve more peogl: over a wider urea than ever fore. In small rented quarters t Warsaw “Y" feeds several nun eds of child- ren, provides simple educational classes and collects books for prls- oners of war. In Germany tho Polish “Y" serves 100.000 prisoners of war; in France it operates 2i fcyers for refugees; in Swltzerlnnu it serves 11,000 lnt/ernees and in Scotland 30,003 Polish soldiers. ‘ Similar vitality and stick-to- ltlvcness are seen in Roumania and Czechoslovakia. At the last National Council Conference held in Gnu kl . Gcneralilsslmo Chiang KxalF-shnélr referred to thc Y. M. C- A. services to soldiers u follows: “True to their purpose as social lervice organizations the Y. M. C. A.'s in different parts of the country have enlisted the sup- port ofthe people to give gener- ously of their energy and their money and havg opened stations in the diflerent war zones for the service of soldiers.

includn stretcher bearer service. changing of bandages, comforting soldiers and giving relief. in car- rying on this work which is based on Jesus’ spirit of love, the Y- M. C. A. workers are doing their duty

Although an outline of the problems which the "Y" has had to face during the past 100 years would have easily discouraged its founder in 184-4, a forecast of the events with which it will be faced in the next 100 years does not dia- coura e us. We have our feet on the oor so to speak and are ieady for anything; the “Y" will continue to thrive on trying prob- lems. Today the “Y" 1| recognized as a strong worthwhile organiz- ation; the sp endid work it is dolnz among ya and young men throughout the earth is apprecia- by our people and Govcm- ments. Governments have come to realize that youth is tho big prob- lem 0i’ today; the malice that failure to 1am th problem for the past 100 years has brought the social unrest and chaos that. we have about us today. Governments realize too that social service organizations such as the "Y" can bri about de- sirable effects which t ey in ass- irig laws cannot get. The "Y’ has a sincere and personal a pea] for

boys and young men an it gives the boys and youngmrnen what. they need, a friend w is interested in them and will help them. Throughout the world the various Governments are rbing our Y M C A. leaders ‘* these
