First, andvery important, is the fact that the Cedarville College Y.W.C.A. became affiliated with the NationalStudent Y. W.C.A.Through this the members have received such privileges as corresponding with foreign students, taking part in state and nationwide conferences, receiving a great variety of religious literature, and contributing to the World's Student Christian Federation. In October,the Y. W.sponsored a candy sale in the administration building. Homemade candy wasbroughtfor sale by each of the girls and was purchased by thefaculty and student body. On November 4the group sponsored a Tag Day. Each individual donated some time during the day for selling the tags in the down-towndistrict. They felt sure that their time had not been wasted when a total income of $45.50 was reported. The annual CommittalService was presented on November 9 in the Methodist Church with Miss Marie Fisher serving as president and leader of the devotional program. Rings and pins were purchased by some ofthe members. The triangular shaped pins were of sterling silver with a fire-blue bar reading "Y. W. C. A." across the top. The triangle is the symbolic emblem of the organization. The rings were similiar in appearance. During December the Y. W. girls were busy selling Christmas cards.
