"The Y. W. c. A. Fifty Years
Ago" a tableau with living mod

When the association had its be-
ginning in Boston, something over
fifty years ago. girls were just be-
ginning to make a timid entry into
industry and the business world,
and the first association taught
girls typewriting-an innovation at
that time. In the tableau one OF
the three figures in stiff crinoline
will be seen sitting at an old-fash-
Toned typewriter, while the other
two young women will be seen
practicing the more usual (for
that time) feminine arts-sewing
and cooking. On the wall Of the
room. which will be as nearly as
possible a reproduction of the first
Y. ". C. A. class room, will be
copies OF the announcements and
posters Of the day.
The exhibit hall. which is the
ballroom of the Masonic building
in which the convention sessions
are to be held. will have displays
of all sorts, showing the world
wide activities of the Y. ". c. A.
today and will be open to the pub
lie A hostess house. patterned
after the hospitality houses which
the Y. ". c. A. maintained in
camps and abroad during the war

tors. The decorations, lights and
exhibit proper are under the direc.
ton of Miss Mary Tyson Page, a

liminary announcements promises
