The work of the Young Women's Christian Association is by far the best work have ever engaged in, as it unites all work under Christian influences.
 The lunch room takes the place of Womans Exchange, and Is a source of remuneration. We closed our last year. having served 75.736 lunches at an aver age cost of IS cents each, food well pre- pared and of the best quality. In this department we came put $l,1S2 ahead.
 The Boarding House is seIf-sustaining and gives homes to forty.five or fifty-five girls at a time at prices ranging from &. .5O to A per week, which is less than they can get 1t for elsewhere in the city.

 ''rhe State Board sends a secretary into every institution of learning tn the State. establishes associations among the gtrl boarders, and brings them under the in- fiUence of Christian union.
 Tt also establishes such work as Lila Little is doing at West End. and 1t unites all denominations in Its support. and it brings the Ministers Union into cooperation with 1t.
 The gymnasium is an important fea- ture: this one of ours Is self-sustaining. Another great end gained is this: While doing good work. the Association ere ates offices for women. too, offices which the most refined can i'll.

 Sometimes women are puzzled to make
