The first month was spent largely tn the office with Employment and Room Registry work and other office details which in the absence of an office secretary, filed the days and presented the development of a general program.

T could tell you of girls, either weak or trustful, disappointed by men un- true and who have become public charges a lability to the community, financially and morally. I could tell you of mothers deserted by their husbands who cling to their father- less children until they must have aid, of wives broken hearted who not having met the world before. have stolen away with the one child to an untried life to escape the fear of a drunken husband. I could tell you of young girls who have sought an outlet for a super abund- ance of life in places that furnish thrills and excitement without pro- tection—whose faces have hardened in a few short weeks. This is but a beginning of what I could tell you out of my short experience in Casper. 5 “I could tell you of the ever tn- creasing group of splendid young women who are constantly coming to the city as well as young men who are living under unnatural con- ditions and who, though they are well served as to spiritual needs by the. churches, have daily physical needs as well as possible but it has expenses, housing and boarding loneliness of detached living, lack of proper forms of recreation, dis- ‘ouragement—all of which affect the finest type of spiritual life but with which the churches are not pre- pared to assist.
