1921 CONFERENCE OF CoLoRED Y.
W. G. A. GIRLS AT LAKE OKoBoJT
(By Mary E. Wood.

(By Mary E. Wood.
Thursday morning, August 25, dele
cation of nine, including the secretary
boarded the train going to the Y. W.
G. A. camp at Lake Okoboji. The trip
was long and tiresome because we were
so anxious to reach our destination.
When we got off at Milford, Iowa, taxis
were waiting to carry us to the camp
which is four miles and half from the
station. AS we drove up in front Of the
dining hall we were greeted with cheers
from Davenport, Clinton, Rock Island,
ILL.,; Omaha, Neb.; and st. Paul, MINI.
girls. Acquaintances were soon made
and by dinner time we were stauncl
friends.
I know everyone is familiar with the
old adage, ttAll work and no play makes
Jack a dull boy" On Friday morning
we found that this had been reversed
and now read, "AH play and no work
makes Jane dull girl,'' for we were
all organized into Bible recreation and
forum classes. +
Tn our Bible class the main subject
was: "Friendship with Jesus Christ, -
the recreation class gave us many help
ful suggestions on elbow to make a
party success and the forum class dis
cussed, "Problems confronting the Ne
gro girl of today"
All classes were held in the morning
and the afternoons were spent in swim
ming, rowing and other athletic diver
sions. The evenings were usually spent
in a novel way and at 10 o'clock the
bell sounded lights out
II. Camp Gains.
The chief gain was our new friends,
"every girl comrade true, whatever
school or fame.'' We established a
regular way of living, learned new plans
to bring home to our "Y' discovered
the real meaning of recreation, learned
to further develop our character, create
deeper sense of uprightness and loyal
ty to friends.
...,g.se Statistics.
There were forty-two members in
camp, three permanent officers, eight
leaders and thirtyone girls. Classified
lows: Fifteen Methodists, twelve Bap-
fists, six gregationalists, five Epis-
copalians, and one registered no church
connection. Classified according to oc-
crpation there are: thirteen students,
eleven Y. W. c. A. secretaries, three
Office girls, four housewives, four ca
teresses, one saleslady and one elevator
operator. .'@
Each girl returned home September 3
with a determination to return next
year and induce as many girls as pos
sible to return with them.

BEWARE OF BORROWING

A woman who was too econ omical to
subscribe for her home paper sent her
little son to borrow copy from her
neighbor. In his haste the boy ran over
four-dollar stand of bees, and in ten
minutes looked like a warty summer
squash. His cries reached his father,
who ran to his assistance, and failing
to notice a barbed wire fence, ran into
it., breaking it down, vutting handful
OF flesh from his anatomy and running
five-dollar pair of pants. The old COW
took advantage of the gap in the fence
and got into the cornfeld and killei
herself eating corn. Hearing the racket,
the mother ran, upsetting four gallon
churn of rich cream into basket of
kittens, drowning the whole litter. In
her hurry she dropped and broke, past
all hope of mending, twenty-five dol
lar set of false teeth. The baby, left
alone, crawled through the spilled cream
and into the parlor, running tweney-
dollar carpet. During the excitement
the eldest daughter ran away with the
hired man, the dog broke up eleven set.

Holds Meeting in
New Club Rooms

Monmouth, Ore, Feb. 16.- The
right kind of community spirit
prevailed in Monmouth last eve

Community club, held in the new
Community house provided by the
Baptist church society. For more
than a week committees have been
working-out plans toward a sue
cessful community meeting, and
their efforts We're successful, The
program committee featured Prof
Gentle of the Normal school as
the leading speaker, and he made
an interesting talk. Others pres
cnt responded with interesting
stories when called upon. As the
recall election has been the topic
of much discussion in Monmouth
during the last few weeks, the at
titude of Monmouth in this mat
Ter was discussed in a friendly
manner, and all through the meet
ing, there was manifested a friend
ly community spirit intended to
better conditions, generally, in
Monmouth and the surrounding
country.
A community dinner was served
at 6;30, and the program rendered
in the evening. The meeting was
largely attended. This was the
first of series of meetings to be
held in the Community house,
growing oi1t nf which much c0o1
is likely to be accomplished.
