PROTECTIVE WORK
BIZ Mrs. Vi0lette s. Campbell

fhO1f 1fCII Il WohN
The Y. ". G. A. among its many
activities in the county is trying to de-
velop protective work for girls to Il
larger extent, and those who are close
to the life of the valley know how i'm
portant this work is. Mrs. William A.
Fitzgerald, president of the c. j. W.,
when in the county two weeks ago, es-
pecially commended this phase of Y.
w. work, and urged the club women
Of the county to aid it with all of their
influence She said more of such work
would prevent many of the saddest
tragedies of life.
BY working in the high schools
among the girls, the organization is
building up ideals of living and help
ing the students to see and recognize
the dangers that may cross their path
way, but the protective work meets q
different problem.
TO illustrate and show it's need, here
is q story that is true and of recent
date:
A young girl--not bad as yet, but
Just foolish--drifted into El Centre
alone and unprotected. She sought en-
ployment, but happened to fall in with
IN unserupulous young man i'll the af-
ternoon who took her for Il joy ride,
heading for the border at the south end
of the valley. Nobody knows just
what happened, but the pair came back
at midnight intoxicated. The police
found them and rs is the custom, sent
the young man to his room, telling the
girl that if she did not leave town at
once they would put her in jail. Thus
she was left without II cent of money
to3pay for her lodging and absolutely
nowhere to go. f
All night she wandered about, hid
ing from the police. At dawn she
sought the home Of one she had known
in earlier years, who gave her break
fast and money enough to buy trans
portation home.
What Il terrible experience, and it is
just such experiences that ruin scores
of girls. With larger means, the Y.
w. G. A. could maintain Traveller S
Aid in all of county towns and estab-
lisl cooperation with the police and
county officials that would protect
girls from such men and such degrad-
ing experiences. This story is true in
every particular and another just as
tragic happened but few days before.

REALITY IN IRELAND.

Freedom in Ireland is a reality. The
Irish are governing themselves with the
acquiescence of the English.
The British have moved out of Dublin
castle, ancient stronghold and visible
symbol of foreign oppression, and the
Irish have moved in. The British army
is eyacuating Ireland. and IFS place is
being taken by Irish police troops.
Preparations are going forward peace
fully and speedily for setting up the new
government of the Irish Free State, and
the constructive work of this momen +
tous transition is being done BY the irish
themselves. ~
Sim Fein government turns into
provisional government under Arthur
Griffith, and provisional government will
soon merge into the permanent dominion
government provided by the London
treaty. "
Here is an accomplished fact, for the
whole world to witness The regrettable
thing is that a small group of Irish lead
ers, headed by De Valera, refuse to see
or admit the evidence of their own eyes,
minimizing the blessings gained and
holding out stubbornly FOR an impossible
dream. 49,.
Fortunately the bulk of the Irish PEG
pie recognize the immense benefits OF
the new regime, and are happy in them
