Mr. Morphett knew Sir George Williams personally, and so was able to give a vivid picture of this kindly and charming man. Sir George was a country boy and came to London when only 14 years of age. He apprenticed himself to a busi- ness house there, and after many year's service became the head of the firm. During his first years of work, how- ever, when he had very long hours and very little pay, he felt the need of recreation and formed a club of other boys like himself. This club gradually became larger, and when Sir George became the head of the firm, he estab- lished it in rooms of its own. Before long other influential men became in- terested, and in 1844 the Y. M. C. A. was founded. It has since spread all over the world but its main aims re- main the same as those given it by the founder. The program for the next two weeks is as follows: -- Sunday, January 17--Arthur Fisher will lead a discussion on the World Court. Sunday, January 24--Andrew P. Canning will talk on "Robert Burns, the Poet of Democracy," and William S. Brown of Kenilworth will sing some Scotch songs. NOW IN PARIS Mrs. John Buckingham, with Mrs. J. R.
