THE Y. W.C. A. The Young Women's Christian Association was organized April 8, 1909, through the efforts of Miss Agnes Jean Smith, then Professor of English, and Miss Helen Sewall, Student Y. M. C. A. Secretary at that time. The membership then consisted of all the girls in college and at present a majority of the girls are members. Weekly meetings are held on Wednesday. This year the organization has been very successful financially. Our greatest drive was election day, November 2, 1922. This we called Tag Day. The girls went downtown in groups selling tags to everyone they could see. We made about $100. This year we have attempted more work of a practical nature than we ever have before, and thus far have been successful. Ten Thanksgiving baskets were filled with all the bounties of the season, and distributed to all the needy of the village. The children of the poor families were remembered at Christmas with well-filled stockings. We feel that our meetings have been very successful and interesting this year. We are especially pleased with the interest which the girls have taken in the work and the active part they have taken in our weekly meetings. Altogether we feel that we have a very bright outlook and that we will be able to accomplish greater things than ever in the future. L. J. 67
