Church women of every communion are being urged to visit their "YW" during this week, see the activities that are carried on for local women and girls, and relate themselves also to the worldwide services of the "YW" In 6 nations. "The YWCA is your window to the world" la the week's slogan. There are 3, 000,000 members of the "YW" in more than 1,000 branches Miss Jane Doolittle, Presbyter ian missionary promoting the "Iran Bethel Project" in Teher an, Iran, reports that a home has been purchased for the erowine community service center which now operates a library, sewing classes, health clinic nursery school, apd Bible classes for the city. The center has grown out of the needs of young women who formerly attended the Chris tian school maintained by the mission. "The city of Manila Is taking on a new look," reports Miss Roxy Lefforge, missionary in that Philippine Islands city. "We no longer live in a ghost-community. The Harris Memorial School has moved into the newly reconstruc ted Wilson Hall. Everywhere new buildings are going up, ruins are being torn down, and old build ings are having their faces lifted. The sea wall is almost whole again. The streets are being re paired and beautified. People are waiting for the first signs of the 'phoenix' which is expected to arise from the ashes of the old Central Student Church." The Methodist Clinic at Sltia wan, Perak, Federation of Mal aya, opened twenty years ago by Miss Mechteld Dirksen, R. N., of Mount Vernon, N. Y., and closed during the years of Japanese con trol of the territory, has again been opened. "My first venture in preventive medicine was to take over the health examina tions of 650 children in the An glo-Chinese School (Methodist English School)," says Miss Dirk sen. "Even such superficial ex aminations showed a great many defects and deficiencies. Many were undernourished, and we supplied them with the food-sup plement which I brought _ out from home. The teeth of the younger children especially were very bad; about 7 per cent had defective vision, and a great num ber have trachoma. The former are being attended to by an eye specialist in I poll; the latter we treat In the Clinic."
