The Y.M.C.A is taking youth in the clay and moulding it into the highest tvne of manhood. It is shaping body "in its Gym: mind in its Educational Classes —the soul in its Ethical courses. Thew and sinew, brain and heart, must all be cared for in the creation of strength. Men must fight life physically, mentally and morally. No matter what a boy's origin may be, no matter what handicaps have checked his start, no matter whatjenvironment has darkened his first viewpoint, he can find the path of .achievement if he can discern the guide post and secure the strength to endure to the goal. The Y.11.C.A. is setting men in the right direction all over the world. It has remodelled thousands who needed its help. Masterton's Association seeks to do this for Masterton's men and boys. It must have more funds if it is to grow as great as its usefulness. Will you help by sending in your contribution to the General Secretary TO-DAY ? /VTAKI MAORI RACING CLUB.
