INSPIRING MESSAGE
AT Y. M. C .A.
Young Men Hear of the Work Done
by Y. M. C. A. Secretaries in Army
Camps.
The Thursday evening prayer meet
ing was in charge of Mrs. Alice Lind-
Ley. Her huslband is engaged in army
Y. M. C. A. work, consequently the
leader .was in (position to give first
hand information in regard to the
indispensable work being done by Y.
M. C. A. secretaries in the army
camps.
Without the services of the Y. M.
C. A. secretaries, camp I'Me would 'be
extremely monotonous. They furn
ish stationery and encourage the
soldiers to write letters. Picture
shows are placed in every camp.
Preparations are made for all kinds
of athletic contests. In short, the
work o.f the Y. M. C. A. secretaries
consists in making the soldier coim
forttetlble and furnishing him pleas
ures. And ail the time tfhey are dem
onstrating to the soldiers that Chris
tianity is a /practical religion; thiat
the example of service set by Christ
has no't Ibeen forgotten and 'that
man 'cannot Jive ,by (bread alone,
They have ta chance to 'get elose to
men, and they are eqiual to the task.
Whenever a company oif soldiers ar
rive at tllie end of a hard day's march
they find that some secretaries have
preceded them and arranged for
their every comfort and pleasure.
The work is hard, ibuit it is always
done cheerfully. Those men 'who are
giving themselves are not working
in vain. One soldier, aipon being
asked wlbat he t'hot of Y. M. C. A.
Work in the camps, answered the
secretary: "You make Christianity
attractive." The Y. M. C. A. has
contributed tgrea/t sums of money t'o
carry >on this work. "But," said
Mrs. L'indley, "is it any wonder that
we are Willing to contribute when
we know what a great good we are
doinig?"
MISS AYER ADDRESSES STUDENT
GOVERNMENT ASSOCIATION
A meeting of the Student Govern
ment Association was held on Satur
day afternoon. The association was
fortunate in having Miss Ayer pres
ent who spoke encouragingly of the
work of Student Government here
at Guilford.
Miss Ayier said that she had often
wtondered la'bout the organization,
and 'as she "had heard nothing about
i:t, she had supposed that the girls
had let it drop. "lit would not have
been surprising if they had," sthe add
ed, "as in a small pl/aoe every igirl has
su'ch a big important part to take."
She, however, expressed her confi
dence 'in the aJbillity of Guilford girls
to imake it a success when she said,
"I have told tihe girls at our college
all about you and have given yo-u as
an example of a Student Government
A'S'Sio'ciation 'in a simlali place. Now
you 'will isimipLy have to imake it go
to keep uip my reputation, and not
only .mine Ibu't your awn, because oth
er 'colleges have heard 'about your
association and you cannot afford to
let iit drop for tftoat if for no other
relason."
iM'iss Ayer laid much stress on the
impo stance iof self government. She
oompliimenlted itlhe girl's on what they
had done and urged them to be (more
loyal in their support of the associa
tion next year.
After the meeting much enthusi
asm was displayed. As Mliss Ayer
was instrumental in (getting Student
Government started at G'uilford, the
members felt that she was deeply in
terested in tlie'ir organization.
