Founded on the highest ideals of fellowship, character buildin ,. self deveh)p- nient. and service, the Y. W. C. A. work has contrihuted consistently to the dexelop- nient of a high type of college spirit. Just two vears have passed since the organization of the Y. W. C. A. on thi campus. In that time tlie association has become affiliated with the National Organi- zation, has been granted a charter, has sent representatives to the Asilomar Confer- ences, and to Southern California Conferences, and has gained an enviable place in the work of the field. The closing of the vear has brought to Santa Ana the first Southern California Junior College Y. W. C. A. conference. More than one hundred delegates from Junior College Associations of the South were on this campus in conference with Miss Alice Hoyt, field secretary in the Asilomar division and Miss Lillie Margaret Sherman, secretary of the Association on the campus at the University of California. The local Association has been further recognized bv the appointment of the directing secretarv. Miss Isabel Anderson, as a member of the student council of the Asilomar division, which is a council of five members chosen from all student associations in the division, to govern in the interim between National conventions. Miss Anderson has also been appointed chairman of a committee to plan a special group of Junior College councils at the Asilomar Conference in August. Activities for the year have been chiefly centered in the development of the organization and the advancement of Y. W. spirit among the girls of the college. Discussion groups, which have gone deeply into vital problems and have added much to the intellectual and spiritual life of the Association, have been successfullv conducted bi-weekly at the home of Miss Lasby The most important day of all the year for the local Association was the dedica- tion of the Y. W. Hut on April 15. Mr. Schrock of the Congregational (Church de- livered the dedicatory sermon. Mrs. Eleanor Northcross and Miss Isabel Anderson spoke of the various ways in which the hut was to be used. The beautiful painting, presented by Mr. W. A. Griffith, hung over the fire place, giving the touch of beauty the building needs. The color tones of the picture are repeated in walls and rugs and draperies.
