|THE BELLEFONTE Y. M. C. A.
SUPPLIES A GREAT NEED.
From September 1, 1930, to Sep-
tember 1, 1931, there were 53,891
persons at the various activities
conducted by the Bellefonte Y. M.
C. A. That represents a mass over
ten times as large as the entire
population of Bellefonte and may
be surprising to many who do not
realize what a busy community cen-
ter the Y has come to be.
All manner of recreative activities
for the body, the mind and the soul
are going on there every day and
night. Especially is the Y. being
the haven of the unemployed. Num-
bers of men and boys out of work
| seek the advantages it offers in the
| way of books and magazines with
which to while away idle hours.
And it is a splendid environment
for them to be in.
However the depression that has
brought about this demand for read-
ing matter and other entertainment
has affected the Y. by reducing its
sources of revenue. It is having a
hard time meeting increased needs
