MANY OTHER THINGS ARE
 PLANNED BY INSTITUTION

The Young Women's Christian As sociation of Bisbee is a little more than one year old, but it has lived lopg enough to prove it's usefulness and to satisfy many, and those in charge hope all the best thinking peo- ple of Bisbee see that the camp can not well get along without such an institution. It is an organization among women with special emphasis on the word young, so far as isans are made. It exists throughout the world and is to be found among young women of many races.
 The association in this city has already accomplished a few things, \ but is planning all the time to make | the organization such that 1t may be useful and helpful to every young wo- man. This truth holds good in life We get according to what We put in and every woman and girl who desires | to have the association mean some thing in her life must put something into it. Something of self is what counts most.
 The present quarters are beautifully located and are meeting many of the lneeds, but not what could be met with "a building planned for association pur- poses and as well located as the pres ent quarters. The board of directors and the association members are in. deed grateful to the Copper Queen Co.," for renting the property TOW be. ing used and shall hope to remain in present quarters until they see theiI own building.
 | The association desires that the women of the camp understand that the association building is for them and that visitors in the camp are al
 ways welcome. Members should es pecially feel at home and invite others to join, so they wiIl have that honey
 feeling. The reception. dining. recre ation, reading and toilet rooms are open from s a. m. until 70 D. m. The porch is fine place to rest, read and vait for friends.
 The noon lunch and rest" should appeal to every woman and girl whc needs to be down town at midday One may have little or much to eat. as she chooses. To the girls who desire to carry all or part of their lunch there is table provided. To be able to buy hot dish or drink 10 go with the cold lunch means very much. The
 physical strain on the body is great and to eat ones lunch in g quiet restful place to go to one side anC quietly rest for fs- minutes time
 saves one from many of the ills flesf is heir to and preserves that poist which makes life bright and happy
 The reading room feature will grow as We have some funds to spend fol magazines and books. The education | alclasses 10 be taken up in July August and September and carried on throughout the year. will be o such a character that many will find just what they desire to make hands useful with the needle. to advance one
 mentally, morally and physically Some of the iolliest happiest and most instructive social affairs are
 being enjoyed and will be in the flu ture. The clubs for girls and others are growing in numbers and useful ness-a new feature this summer will
 be camping party in the mountains if there are those who desire it.
 The association can furnish home for only nine young women, but il looks forward to the time when ii will have room for many more. These
 rooms are comfortable and homelike surely fortunate Young women who { asiC away cal diN see these rooms and learn what rates } and accommodations are-At present there is one vacant room and in June there will be two more.
 A growing feature is the employ ment director. Those seeking hell and those seeking work are leav ing their names And making known . their wants. The secretary seeks tc bring these persons together. Tran |, sients are accommodated whenever there is room in the house.
 Many going into other parts of the : country and others coming to the camp are finding how helpful the as ; sociation may be to them while ye , strangers.
 The confidence of women and girls , who are needing big sisters" ad i vice or counsel will never be be trayed by the general secretary. EverS i, secretary throughou; the land nigh [ tell many instances ot girls who have , been savfG from that which would !. rui9 lifc a"i brirg sorrow to many
