necessary to do intensive work among
the active workers and friends Of the
Y. W. c. A.
There r more Indians in the
north central field than in any other
of the eleven fields in the United
States, and the Y. w. c.. A. has not
before this time done any work
among them. There are a great many
foreigners in these five states. In
many instances, as in the Russian
colonies in North Dakota, these for
eign-born people do not speak English
as rule, n have therefore very
little in common with their American
neighbors. -,
There are many more girls in in
dustry now than before the great war
and not only their welfare but the
problem Of girls who are being dis
CHARGED to make room for the soldiers
is the concern Of the Y. w. c.. A..
