^ Y. W. C. A. NOTES ^
On lust Sntidiiy, iiistciul of tlio usual Suu-
(liiy I'vtMiiujr service, there was, sit fouv o’clock
in the iit'tcriioon, a uicetiuj'held in chapel at
which iliss Juliet Jlathcv, who lias been witli
IIS tor a week feaehing a W. if. U. study
class, j?avo a very delightful aud interesting
talk. We were glad to have with us at this
meeting several of our friends from out in
town. 'I'he devotional exercises were led by
ilrs. ifaddry, and after this Janet Holloman
and Klizabetii Kendrick gave a vocal duct.
]\lis8 iMathev spoke about the value in our
life, especially our college life of knowing
Christ. She told \is that of all the knowl
edge and the wisdom we gained while in col
lege this was far the most imj)ortant. And
she also dwelt on the importance of winning
souls to Christ, for “those who win many to
Christ sinill shine as the brightness of the
•firmament.” After Miss Mather’s talk iCiss
liighsiiiith sang a very beautiful solo.
We feel that we have been more than for
tunate ill having Miss 5i[ather with us for
even such a short period, and we hate for her
to leave us.
