170 years ago today - Mar 21, 1843

[Joseph Smith] "Young Gentlemen and Ladies Relief Society of Nauvoo" is officially organized and a charter of 12 rules is drawn up. "If the youth throughout our land would follow this good example and form themselves into such societies, there would be much less sin, iniquity, misery, and degradation among the young people than there is at the present day." (Times and Seasons, Apr. 1, 1843.)
