In meeting the post-war needs of women the Young Women’s Christian Assoclation stands as an instrument of service, tested and proven by war, and organ- ized to meet the manifold problems of peace. “Because of its fifty odd years of ex- perience in meeting fundamental prob- lems affecting girls, ‘the Young' 'Wénd en’s Christian Asséciation Is an organi- zation particularly fitted to exert a stabilizing influence upon the troubled times through a consistent program of service for girls and women. “American women are asking how they may share in the world's recon- struction. They can do so by enlisting the support of their communities for this World Service Program, which will insure to the world a healthier and bet- ter womanhood. “This' campaign of the Y. W, C. A. to tell the people of the Uniteéd States about its work and to raise $3,000,000 with which to carry on Y. W. C.

We can no longer ignore the character, the manner of life and the ideals of other peoples, whether we want to or not. A special call is now coming to the Association from China, Japan, India and South America, where work was held back during the war because of the necessity for spe- ‘clal activity n France and e United ‘States. “The World Service Progrnm calls for $4,500,000. Of this amount $1,500,- 000 has already been secured.” The educational campaign commit- tee includes among its members Mrs. Robert E. Speer, president of the Na- tional Board of the Y. W. C. A.; Mra Henry P. Davison, Mrs, William Van V. Hayes, Mrs, Robert L.
