15. HH. QI. A. I h HIE Young Women's Christian Association is an iniportant fac- gg tor in the social, educational and spiritual hte ot the girls at QQKYS Highland ParkuC2llegc. Among the SOCltll.CVt?lllS ot the past , Z year were the Y Proms, given at the -beginning ot the sum- ! mer and tall quarters, for the purpose ot 2lCqll2lllllLl1lg the many new students with the social life ot' the association. At an in- formal reception, given to the girls of the institution, each felt that she was brought into closer touch with the other girls. The educational life of the girls was broadened by a series ol' heart- to-heart talks by Miss Hurd and lectures by Miss Lowe. A visit from the student secretary, Miss Lynch, was greatly enjoyed, and her message proved very beneficial. While enjoying the social and educational side of life, the girls did not neglect the development of tl1e smiritual. The weekly devo- tional meetings were a source of spiritua strength, and afforded op- portunity for efficient training in Christian work. A course in The Parables of Jesusf' as outlined by Elbert Russell, was taken up ill the weekly Bible study class. This was followed by a study of the lives and works of many of our home and foreign mis- siouaries. The few moments of devotional services, as observed in Morning Watch, were an inspiration for the work of each day. A revival of religious enthusiasm was brought about through the efforts of Mrs. Bess, familiar to the students of Iowa City as ','Mother Bess, who conducted a series of meetings. In these she advised the girls concerning the problems of a college XV0lliilll,S life. The final meet- ing was the impressive candle service of the association ill which all of the girls participated. The year closed with a noticeable increase in membership as well as a great increase in interest.
