y. w. c. a. The Y.W.C.A. considers the year of 1930-31 one of the most satisfactory in its existence in E.J.C. The social service department was especially active this year in helping the Red Cross and other charitable organiza- tions in distributing aid to the needy. All of the members entered into this work with fine cooperative spirit. World fellowship, peace pacts, and international relationship were the themes of the conference which delegates of the y.W.C.A. attended both at the Junior College Conference in Coffeyville and at the joint y.M. and y.W. Conference at Wichita. A notable undertaking of the y.W. was the vesper service given at the First Methodist Church on April 26. Nearly forty girls took part in this service. Cabinet officers who helped to make this a successful year were Frances Caldwell, Florence Davis, Louise Longnecker, Imo Insley, Anna Wilda Hovis, Barbara Boston, Elizabeth McCall, Margery Kilgore, and Mabel Knust.
