many of the intelligent colored WON
en- have been quick to discern the
magnificent opportunity offered by
this movement for the solution of
their problems.
Some four years ago, while the new
national board of Young Women's
Christian Association of i United
States decided to extend its manifold
supervision to the work being done
for colored young women, a repre-
sentative was sent to study that par
ticular field. Among other facts as
certained, it vas noted that in four
teen of our educational institutions,
associations for young m had
been organized, although hardly half
that number were doing any effec-
tive work. Several city associations
had likewise been launched, but only
four were doing anything apprecia-
BILE along Association lines.
In the spring of 1908 Miss Eliza
beth Ross was called by the national
board to be the first student secre-
tary for work among colored wom-
en-, and, after some special prepara-
tIon, began her vigorous and remark
ably successful labors the following
fall. Whether at Conferences at Sill
yer Bay, on beautiful Lake George,
or at work at headquarters in New
York, or in college visiting, the mag
netic personality of this young wom-
an left its impress, and has proven
of inestimable value in these pioneer
days of Association effort. she has
demonstrated by her splendid powers
the possibility of our college-trained
girls serving their generation in a
new and important movement for
the salvation of womanhood.
Student conferences were held
within two years at Talladega Col
lege, Claflin, Tougaloo and Fisk Uni
versities, and flfty-two student or

institutions, quickly s~upplanted the
fourteen found in 1908. Those who

ing with the Travellers Aid and Pro-

ful opportunity to pour something of

tive has been The work of this asso-
citation that its very strong presi-
dent, Mrs. Laura e. Titus, who has

Miss Cecilia Holloway, a young
college of exceptional abili-

the position of Student Secretary of
the National Board last fall, when
Miss Ross became Mrs. Haynes, and
has been following the lead of her
predecessor with splendid results.
The city work, under the supervi-

various sessions, hearing methods ex-
pounded and reports read by the en-
thusiastic student delegates, or who
could watch the sea of eager respon-
sive student faces as they sat under
the spell of those last hours in the
Meharry Auditorium, will never
doubt the beneficent influence of the
Association movement on the lives
of the thousands of young women
now in school. The magnificent pos
sibilities of the Association are most
naturally presented first of all to the
student world because it is from the
OUTPUT Of our higher educational in
stitutions that we look for leader
ship in this great movement. From
this rank we must choose the Asso-
citation secretary, or, better stated,
the executive-a woman who knows
and has great sympathy for girls
who is able to comprehend and meet
the needs in the spiritual, social, ed
ucational and economic conditions
that surround her. Our largest need
at present is not more associations,
although that need at several centers
is alarmnigly pressing. We must
first find trained leaders. To that
end three young colored women,
graduates respectively of Radcliffe,
Hartshorn and Fisk, VIII spend the
summer months at the National
Training School, New York City, pre-
for future service in Associa-
ton work.
The city Association presents a
field of immense opportunity, as yet,
scarcely appreciated.

associations; we must now mention
five others, with beginnings In sew
