There was no further attempt at organization until 1909 when an agita- tion for a Y. M. C. A. building was begun, accordingly a provisional commit- tee met, December 9. 1909. in the Commercial Club rooms to consider the question of beginning a campaign for that purpose. This committee consisted of W. Y. Morgan. J. U. Brown. J. W. Burns, S. W. Livengood. D. A. Moore. Ed Sweet, Frank Colladay, Will S. Thompson, V. M. Wiley, L. A. Bigger. Ralph Glascock, C. N. Sentney. A. H. Schlandt. J. N. Bailey. A. F. Asher and A. W. McCandless.


The committee considered the conditions were such in the town that such a building was needed for young men, and they started to raise the money for a building. After a campaign for one week they raised $76,801.21, but since they intended at first to raise $75.000.00, they did better than they planned. \ charter was applied for and the following officers were elected for the first year: President, W. Y. Morgan : first vice-president. L. . A. Big- ger ; second vice-president. A. E. Asher ; treasurer, J. W. Burns : secretary. L. V. Starkey.


Mr. Starkey began his work as secretary early in 1910 and served the association until April 15: 1912, when he was succeeded by Garland Craig. who began his work in June, 1912, and continues in that capacity up to the present time.


As the lots for the Y. M. C. A. building on the corner of Walnut and First avenue were purchased for ten thousand dollars; the building cost $58,260, and the equipment an additional $28,547, the total cost of the com- pleted building was $86,807.


The Y. M. C. A. was built at a time when Hutchinson was sorely in the need of a central, non-sectarian, undenominational organization that could become the leader in work that no one denomination or organization could alone do, but which needed the united work of all the forces in the city to carry it forward.


Among these movements that have been greatly helped by the Y. M. C. A., the workers it has developed and the resources put behind the movement was first the building of the Salvation Army barrack. Later came the Red Cross movement, when Reno county raised twenty-five per cent. more money than was asked as its share of the hundred million dollars, raised at the begin-


388

ning of the war for the help of the soldiers. Then came the Y. W. C. A., which was greatly helped by the organized workers of the Y. M. C. A. The surgical dressing organization, that made bandages for the wounded soldiers. found a great helper in this organization.


In addition to their wider advantages, the Y. M. C. A. during the year 1917 maintained two large reading rooms which over seventy-three thousand men and boys patronized. It had four hundred eighty gymnasium classes annually, conducted over eleven thousand games of bowling. and had over forty-five thousand people make use of the physical education section of the organization. It took a great interest in the Sunday school base ball league. which afforded clean sport for thousands of people. It co-operates with the city schools in all phases of boys work. It provides membership privileges for young men and boys situated so they cannot pay the usual fee, and has an annual attendance in the building of over one hundred and seventy-five thousand persons.


In addition to these activities, the Y. M. C. A. has been diligent in all moral and uplifting movements.


They co-operate with all of the churches in the county, supplying them with speakers, help them with their boys' organizations, help get "gospel teams" for fields of work, help locate young men coming to this city and get them interested in their church work and do all that an organization of this kind, non-sectarian and non-denominational can do. It has been a great uplifting force in Hutchinson and has demonstrated its worth on many occasions.


THE YOUNG WOMEN'S CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION.


In the spring of 1917 an agitation for an institution for women and girls, similar to that which had been erected for the men and boys of the county, was started and a week's campaign for funds resulted in the subscrip- tion of over thirteen thousand five hundred dollars for a Young Women's Christian Association. After the money had been subscribed the officers for the first year were chosen as follow: President. Mrs. R. E. Steale: vice- president. Mrs. L. E. Fontron: corresponding secretary, Mrs. M. E. Hin- man : recording secretary, Mrs. Val Adams: treasurer, Mrs. William Kelly.


The association leased a building on Sherman street, west, for two years and on October 1, 1917, opened up their rooms for the use of the women of Hutchinson and adjoining country. The association started out with a mem- bership of seven hundred. They maintain a paid secretary and furnish read-


389


RENO COUNTY, KANSAS.


ing rooms, rest rooms, a gymnasium and rooms where the young women of the county can rest. There are now working in Hutchinson over four hun- dred young women who are away from home, and it is expected that the continuance of the war will bring others to this city to hold positions, and for these the Young Women's Christian Association is a haven.


The association affords a place where working women and girls can eat their lunch. They will not serve meals or lunches as does the Young Men's Christian Association, but will serve hot drinks and furnish a quiet place for women and girls to eat their lunch. Their work, like that of the Young Men's Christian Association, is non-sectarian, and will grow in importance year by year.

CHAPTER LIII.


THE WEATHER.


COMPLETE METEORALOGICAL RECORDS OF RENO COUNTY.


There is no more common topic of conversation than the weather. It interests all; it affects all. The weather records of Reno county are among the most complete of any county in the state. They began two years after the county was organized and have been kept daily from January, 1874, to the present date, September, 1916. The first person to record the tempera- ture and rainfall was C. S. Webster. He was not provided with govern- ment instruments until 1893, when the government established the station in Reno county. Mr. Webster kept these records until September, 1909, when he moved to California and the records and instruments were turned over to Sheridan Ploughe, who has kept them since that time. In this history, Mr. Webster's daily records are not given from 1874 to 1893, but the daily records from 1893 to the present time are a part of Table I, which is added to this chapter, because of its length, and the better displaying of the records. The tables that are added to this chapter include the following : Table I, monthly temperatures, 1874 to 1892, inclusive.


Table II. daily temperature, 1893 to 1916, inclusive.


Table III, monthly temperature, 1874 to 1916, inclusive.


Table IV, record of days thermometer registered below zero.


Table V, record of days thermometer registered above 100°.


Table VI, unusually cold months.


Table VII, dates of last killing frost in spring and first killing frost in fall.


Table VIII, monthly precipitation. 1889 to 1916, inclusive.

GOVERNMENT RECORDS.


These weather tables are of great value. They are taken without any qualification in all the courts of the land. They require no verification, no proof of their authenticity. The statement that they are the records of the government, taken under the direction of the weather bureau of the govern- ment, is sufficient proof of their accuracy. They are constantly consulted by shippers and by railroads, when claims for damages from freezing are made. They are consulted by persons wishing to buy land, especially as to the variation of temperature from winter to summer, and from summer to winter. They are used in damage cases in court to prove the condition of the weather at a given time, the direction of the wind, the presence or absence of snow and, because of their general interest, some of the things indicated by the records will be pointed out.


EXTREMES OF TEMPERATURE.


These records show that there is but little variation in the temperature from one year to another. A recapitulation of the forty-three years the records have been kept shows that the average temperature for Reno county for the forty-three years has been 53.9 degrees. January is the coldest month and the average of the temperature for that month is 29.2 degrees. The hottest month of the year is July, with an average temperature of 74.9 degrees. April and October resemble each other very closely, so far as temperature is concerned, the temperature of April averaging 55.2 degrees. while that of October is 55.8 degrees. August and September are also very much alike in temperature, varying only .6 of a degree. March and November are almost identical in their temperature, there being only one- tenth of a degree difference between them. There is a variance of 45.7 degrees between January and July, this being the average yearly range of temperature. The coldest day on record was February 13. 1905, when a blizzard swept over Kansas from the northwest, and carried the mercury to twenty-seven degrees below zero. This storm started on February IT, with a cold wave from the northwest. The thermometer dropped from twenty- seven to two degrees below zero on the night of February II. The storm increased in intensity, with a high wind, during the 12th and 13th. It blew the snow, which resembled sleet more than snow, and it was impossible


392


RENO COUNTY, KANSAS.


for any one to face the storm. However, but little damage was done to stock and the morning of February 14 opened up bright and clear. The temperature soon rose and the maximum thermometer for . February 14 was 33. a rise during the day of 57 degrees.


"THE HOT SUNDAY."


The hottest day on record was June 25. 1911, which is remembered as "The Hot Sunday." The temperature for several days before this date had been above 100 degrees. There was no wind and the thermometer reached 112 degrees in the "shelter house" provided for the thermometer. Like the blizzard, this extremely high temperature did not last long. The next day the thermometer registered 92 degrees. The extremes of both heat and cold passed away in less than twenty-four hours.


There have been 251 times, as shown by the records, when the ther- mometer passed the 100 degree mark. Of these, May had 4; June. 24; July, 92; August, 110, and September, 21. May 3, 1913, was the earliest time during the forty-three years the thermometer reached 100 degrees and September 17th the latest to reach this mark.


The latest date for killing frost was May 15, 1907, and the earliest frost in the fall was September 11, 1894.


The average precipitation, which includes rain and snow, is 29.22 inches. There have been but three months in the forty-three years of these records when there was no rainfall. These months were December, 1889, Novem- ber. 1914. and July, 1916. Four other months have had but a "trace" of rain, March, 1910, April. 1914, November, 1912, and December, 1908. The wettest year, as shown by the records, was 1898, when the precipitation amounted to 37.10 inches, and the driest year was 1914, when but 15.71 inches of rain fell. July has, on an average, the greatest amount of rain- fall, averaging 4.76 inches, while January has but .78 inches on record. The heaviest rainfall for one month was July, 1904, when 9.37 inches of rain fell, May, 1902. being second with a rainfall of 8.98 inches.


The prevailing direction of the wind is southwest. Next to this direc- tion, the southeast is the direction of the wind. The northeast is generally the direction of the wind in the spring and fall, during a rainy season. The wind is seldom ever from the west, the cold waves coming from the north- west. Seventy-seven per cent. of the days are placed on the record as "clear

days", fourteen per cent. are "partially cloudy" and nine per cent. are "cloudy".


The distribution of the rainfall is most beneficial for the growing crops. Seventy-eight per cent. of the annual precipitations fall in the six growing months from April to September, the fall and winter months of October to March being dry, with an occasional snow, but which seldom becomes heavy enough to interfere with outdoor work.


The following tables furnish a complete review of the temperature and rainfall for almost the entire time that Reno county has been organized :
