The "Biq Sister"

n HoULD any ask whats in a

Sisters" it can be readily an
swered, for THERE'S magic inthat little
phrase; there's protection; there's gen
tleness; there's kindness; there's woman
illness; there's everything THAT is sweet
and tender and big sisterly what. more
can you ask?
The big Sisters" is the very youngest
child of the big Community Council
which is a postwar activity, continu-
alton of the Council of Defense which
accomplished such splendid measures
during the war, and which has as us
honored president Mrs. H. Fl. Smell.
Just at this moment when the BID

patrick. the efficient chairman, is bend
ing every energy toward making inc
drive big success, and when Mrs. Kirk
patrick determines to do thing she
generally succeeds. as all her splendid
activities during the war with Red cross
work and other war measures show.
In speaking of the big Sisters" move
ment in Birmingham, and what it will
mean to the women and girls of this
community, Mrs. Kirkpatrick said yes
terday:
"a committee from the Community
Council made survey of conditions IN
Birmingham during the past sumner
and found that one of the greatest needs
is better housing conditions for our en-

There are over 5000 women and girls
in industry in Birmingham, and many

! Kirkpatrick continued "Of course, by
crowding the Young Women's Christian
association larger number can be cared

cared for by the Y. w. C. A. Some OF the
employed girls, of course, live in thelr
own homes, but many of those VINO earn

finding comfortable quarters. And il TINS
be true of those who earn good wages,
what must the conditions be with those
who earn small wages? How do they
manage? Shall we help them And If So
how can we help them?
