W. C. A. of Bedford High School was organized three years ago under the leadership of Miss Damewood. The group consists of forty members from the Senior and Junior classes. Devotional meetings are held every Monday night at the High School building. In order that each girl may feel respon- sible for the success of the Y. W., leaders are chosen each Week to conduct the meeting and much interest is created. Outside speakers are invited three or four times a year. The Y. W. sent two delegates to Lake Okiboji last summer to a ten days Conference where they received much inspiration. The organization also sent four girls this winter to Red Oak and the reports of the delegates were very encouraging and helpful. In the fall the girls enjoyed several hikes and more are being planned. After the initiation of the new girls, a Motherh- Daughter reception was given where girls displayed their tal- ents as hostesses. A chautauqua is being planned for the near future and many ideas are being worked out. Although the Y. W. has not undertaken any large work this year, its influence has been felt in the school and While a great deal of credit is due to the girls yet much of success has been due to the capable and helpful leadership of Miss Damewood. ,iii 'T . 6-':. w. 4 at-Z 'N , ' . 3 D 'ff V f ...-- gl Y' ,,-371. ?

3' I X V717 f. HI-Y In the five years existance of the I-Ii-Y, it has become an organization of the utmost importance in the school life of Bedford High School. Every year it has added more members and every year it has helped in the development of the three sides of a boy's life, the mental, the physical and the spiritual. The school and community as well as the Hi-Y members them- selves realize the good that the Hi-Y club has been doing: thus they have been giving it their heartiest support. The regular meetings, which are held every Wednesday night at seven o'clock, are carried off with zeal and enthusiasm that inspires everyone present. Problems are discusses that are everywhere giving trouble to the high school student. In the past year we have had many talks by older people outside of the Hi-Y. We have gained much in the Way of knowledge by these talks and advice given by the older people. Among those who have given us talks are Mr. Street, Rev. Roberts and Mr. Parsons. Although having only thirty-two members, the Hi-Y be- lieves in quality not quantity . In 'the years of 1924-1925 we held two initiations and a party for the Hi-Y and Y. W. C. A. Much credit is due Mr. McLain. He has been present at all the meetings and all occasions and We wish to acknowledge our thanks to him for his splendid example before us at alltimes. With the co-operation of everyone in high school and everyone in the community We hope to make next years work in the Hi-Y a better and larger year for the Hi-Y.
