THE BLUE TRIANGLE
HE Wellington branch of the Y.W.C.A. has just brought out its 35th Annual Report. One is struck by the wide range of activities and interests dealt with throughout the year, particularly as a great deal of the association’s time and energy has been devoted to providing week-end enterta:.ment for the_men of the forces. It is gratifying to note, however, that while the war-time problems of our young men.have been given consideration, the special wartime needs and problems .of our girls have not been completély neglected. We read that a preparatory conference was held at which questions such as the following were discussed:
What are the problems of girls in wartime? * X Are those of us who know boys overseas growing as fast as they are? How can we learn to understand their outlook since leaving home? Can married women who work while their husbands are away learn how to readjust themselves to home life? Attention has also been given to the dangers of overwork and anxiety which wartime conditions may bring to the women of New Zealand. One feels after reading the report that the Y.W.C.A. has again proved its ability to recognise the problems of the day and to do something about them.
