Addresses First Meeting;
Discuss New Fund Drive
for Y. w. G. A.

The Nebraska Speakers institute
held a special session Tuesday after
noon at the Hotel Fontenelle under
the leadership of Mrs. Emma
Byers of the central division of the
Young Women's Christian association
in Chicago. Mrs. George F. Gilmore,
president of the Omaha branch, was
scheduled to preside but resigned the
chair to Mrs. Byers.
The budget items into which the
money received in the next Young
Women's Christian association drive
will be divided formed the basis Of the
discussion. 1T is easy" explained
Mrs. Byers, for the business man
or others to say we do not need as
much money as we are asking for the
various branches of the Work, but
a study of the needs in each branch
will convince them of the necessity
of the money"
1t was the aim of the meeting to
acquaint the speakers thoroughly in
the work being done in each branch
so that they may show the public just
what the Young Womens Christian
association is doing.
Mrs. w. J. Calkins of Decatur,
Neb, spoke of the work among the
girls engaged in war industries.
Proper living conditions, recreation
and chaperonage are the things the
association is supplying and which
the government depends on them for,
according to Mrs. Calkins.
Mrs. Bowman Speaks.
Mrs. w. A. Bowman discussed the
work among the foreign born women.
She explained that the association
had been able to accomplish an enor-
nous amount of good through peo-
pie who spoke the language of the
foreign born, explaining to them the
aims of the government and what
the war is about. II suggest that,
when more of these foreign speaking
workers are secured, we request one
for Omaha" she said in closing, and
the suggestion elected great applause.
Mrs. c. E. Johannes told of her
experiences as hostess house work.
er at Camp Pike.
Social morality was the topic dis
cussed by DR.. Abbie Virginia Holmes.
Lectures and personal talks by
women physicians who are paid only
a small sum for this work, require
the money that is asked for this
branch.
A resolution of sympathy for Mrs.
Offutt was passed.
After the meeting Mrs. Frank Jud-
son took the visiting women for
drive to Fort Omaha, the Country
club and other points.
