THE Y.W.C.A.'S WORK
A correspondent writes: Ask the girl in the street what she thinks of the Y.W.C.A.! Only the other evening I happened to drop into the association's rooms in Herbert Street. '.Vliile watching the girls at their gßmes, a very shy girl,, about 18, came and eat down near me. I asked her why slie did not join the play.. She said she did not know fiiiyono. I naturally asked: "Whom did you come with?" Looking very frightened sho pointed out a. iii'l. After introducing her to a bevy of girls, and seeing her as happy as a girl could be, I sought out .tlio girl she hnd pointed out In mo, and asked her about, the stranger. She. replied that she had never seen her before, it appears that the girl heard (ho music and the fun from the street, and had followed the first girl sho saw go in. That was only <>no lonely girl out of many hundreds who swarm our streets, and whom the association is out to make happy.
This work cannot fro on and increase unless n. generous rmblic, .who natura'ly love all good girls, come- to the Y.W.O.A.'s did at this lime and heln the association tn continue ind extend its national work.
