A special plan for Bible study during Lent was carried out among the girls on the various fioors, and plans were also formulated for the organization of hiking parties through the Spring. A series of talks running through February. March and April was planned, the following friends of the Conservatory giving the after- dinner talks on Current Events: Miss Howard, Miss Boynton, Mr. Heitkamp, Dr. Lowrie, and Rabbi Heller. On the alternate Wednesday evenings to a smaller group, talks on Funda- mental Beliefs were presented by distinguished speakers: Miss Simrall, Dean of Women, Uni- versity of Cincinnati; Dr. Eubank, head of the- Department of Social Science, University of Cincinnati; Dr. Frank Nelson, Rector of Christ Church, and Dr. Christie, Pastor of the Mt. Auburn Presbyterian Church. On April 8th an Easter vesper service of music was given to which all the members of other branches in the city were invited. As last year, the appeal for the Student Friendship Fund was presented to the student body and the sum of $300.00 was forwarded to headquarters. The Cabinet regularly sends its representative to the meetings of the Y. W. C. A. Metropolitan Committee, and in this way keeps in close touch with the Association in vari- ous institutions like the General Hospital, Kindergarten Training Association, as well as those of the University of Cincinnati and City. It is hoped that by next year our group may take its place as a part of the National move- ment and mean much more in the life of the Conservatory girl. , t

, r Y.W. C. A. LTHOUGH not yet afiiliated with the National organization, the Conservatory branch of the Young Women's Christian Association this year has taken its place among other student activities, since its organization. September'27, 1924. The candle-lighting service held on Wednes- day, November 5, 1924, when the members lighted their candles from those held aloft by the Cabinet, was an unusually beautiful and in- spiring service and was carried out with the aid of various guests who assisted in the program. Mrs. Wallace, President, Miss Young, General Secretary of the City Association, and Miss Mary Louise Buck, President of the University of Cincinnati branch, were most happy in their words of greeting to the young sister organiza- tion, and Miss Baur expressed her satisfaction in the carrying on of the spirit of service so de- sired by Miss Clara Baur, the Foundress of the Conservatory. Miss Esther West of Christ Hospital, as the Spirit of the Association, gave a beautiful talk on Friendship, illustrating the part the Associa- tion may have in giving its members the fullest possible life. During the first semester the Social Service Committee operated effectively, furnishing sev- eral bushel baskets of provisions to poor people at Thanksgiving time, and giving away to or- phans and poor children forty-four dolls which were beautifully dressed by the girls. On January 19th, ten of the girls with Miss West took part in a Friendship Service at the annual meeting of the City branch, thus cement- ing the tie between the two branches. During the second semester several changes took place in the Cabinet, the following mem- bers taking the positions of girls who resigned: President, Susan Fisher, Chairman of Religious Page 135
