Girl Reserves Have
Many Detectives

Girl Reserves, but they can be
stated in quite simple terms. The
girl who moves from adolescence
to young maturity and who has
been part of the Y. w. c. A. move
ment should have an experience
in, an understanding of, and some
conviction about, the major areas
of life.
The first area is religion. It is
possible for a young person to
come into young adulthood with
enough inner security so that she
cannot be battered by the troubles
of life or thrown back on fears
by lack of faith and the cynicism
in others. Never has that faith
been needed so much as in the pre-
sent time.
The second objective is that of
some genuine experience in part
icipation and some conviction
about that form of society under
which it is best for people to live.
We call a form of society that
meets many of our ambitions for
the good society, democracy"
The third objective is with an
experience in, and understanding
of, and a conviction about rela-
tionship; relationships that begin
with the intimate ones of person.
al and family life and that extend
to people of the entire world.
The fourth objective is our need
to understand that all human be-
ings must be contributors to the
work of the world. In our modern
world the significance of this
truth needs to be borne in upon
young people past the point of
getting jobs, so that one under
stands the relationship of his
work to our whole intent to keep
civilization going at the level
where it now is, and to have that
civilization continue upon higher
levels.
The fifth objective is our need
to understand that we are Great
i've creatures. We are the only
species of life on the planet that
knows how to delve deep and pull
out mysteries and to combine in
new patterns.
There is a sixth objective, the
matter of physical and mental
health. We are rare and complicat-
ed machines that must enjoy an
abundance of health and an excess
of vitality if our approaches to
any of the other detectives are to
be as fruitful as they should be.
Through program we put these
detectives into action, and pro-
gram is the vehicle we use for get
ting from where we are to where
we want to go. The most signifi-
cant questions that young people
are asking today are, why was I
born? What are we here for :?
What is life all about?" Only as
we help them to discover for them
selves the answer to that funda-
mental query, do we help them
find a rudder or a chart for the
uncertainties of the world in which
they are destined to live. The fun
damental help we can give to
them is our own answers in word
and action to such questions.
