Never before have so many women been
closely in touch with the work of the
Young Women's Christian association as
is the case this summer The unusual
heat and the growing popularity of swim
ming as an athletic pursuit and pastime
have combined to attract scores of wom-
en- to the pool which Is comparatively
recent acquisition to the institution. This
has given to many outsiders an insight
into the work of the many departments
and has brought the good work of this ex-
celient charity under the eyes of the gem
eral public. The swimming pool is only
one of the many phases of association
work. To one who is permitted to look in
upon the activities of the work in its Diff
ferent localities for even half day there
can but come a thrill of gratitude for the
visions of radiant youth, and there will
come, all unconsciously. feeling of pride
in the wholesome touch which is reflected
from it upon the entire young womanhood
of the city.
The Birmingham candy factory is one of
six such centers entered by the Young
Woman's Christian association. This week
a short drive brought a party of motorists
interested in the work to this place, where

them to be at the very heart of the work.
Leaving with the intermingled picture
of girls in such wholesome surroundings
and doing such fine things, there was not
member of the little coterie who was not
uplifted-and this completed only four de-
partments of Young Woman's Christian
association work. There are others
equally interesting.
Will we ever know how much this work
has meant in the guiding of our girls to
whatsoever things are just, whatsoever
things are@lovely, whatsoever things are
of good report?" Wherever it touches
sirls-and 1t is reaching them in great
numbers-it touches them for the greatest
good. It's deals are so bright and are be-
ing so wonderfully realized that 1 have
had ever before me since groups of girls
radiant in service, and a new song is in
