THE MURMURMONTIS Y. W. C. A. The Young Women ' s Christian Association supplies, in a large measure, the spiritual side of the girl ' s life while at Wesleyan. It affords an opportunity for all the girls to gather once a week and discuss topics of interest to all. These meetings develop higher spiritual ideals and a heller and more lasting friendship among the girls. The past year has been a very successful one. I his organization has aided then- sister college. Hwa-Non College. Foochow, China, financially and they have done some deputation work in rural communities of this vicinity. It is the desire of every loval member to promote interest in the association and make it just as successful in ihe future.
