Y.W. C. A. MEETING 10 Days Spent at a Summer Conference. Completely surrounded by the blue hills stands the beautiful new building for the annual Blue Ridge conferences of the Y M and Y W C A's of the Southeastern States. Though the R E Lee Hall has one onrl oirrhtv rnftmS in it and 11UUV41VU uuu v.ftuv; * vv..? -? a stranger might easily lose her way in the halls, still, from a distance, so vast are the mountains behind it that the house seems a rather small white place on the mountainside. Behind the house is the new dining room and to the right, the auditorium. Down by the left side of the building a picturesque mountain stream overhung with blossoming laurel and fern sings you to sleep at night, and still farther up the hill-side another stream has been dammed to secure a water supply. Passing through a short stretch 01 woods at the front you come upon the tennis courts and ball field? always take your tennis" racket and gym suit to a summer conference. Amid such beautiful surroundings as these did over three hundred girls from the schools and colleges of all the Southern States this side of the Mississippi, spend a delightful ten days from June the fifth to the fifteenth. There were so many of these girls in fact that the building could not accommodate them and they staid in tents just across the stream from the R E Lee Hall. I Such fun as they did have! If i you've never stayed in a tent just try it and see what a good time you'll have, especially if you have an electric light hooked to a post at your door. You felt like you had gotten back to school a^ain though, for you went every where by bells?even light-bell rung at ten o'clock. But . such a nice school! The doors weren't ' ' ? < 1 A. 1 l?i.^ f snut 11 you nappeneu iu oc mic mi breakfast, you didn't get even a part of a demerit for being late for classes and best of all your teacher not knowing any of her pupils names chuld not call upon you separately. The mornings were given to mission study, Bible classes, students and presidents councils from eight-thirty to twelve. At one the dinner bell rung and three hundred girls swarmed up the dining-room steps. At meals spontaneous hursts of State and college songs and yells, etc, added merriment and gaiety to the buzz and hum of conversation. Here too after hard rapping for silence the leaders of the conference made necessary announcements. The afternoons were spent in mountain climbing, horse-back rides, trips to Montreat, games of tenniB and ball and good times in general. One afternoon was "field day," Then Miss Clinkscales of Converse ( college won the tennis game over , Miss Hill, of Agnes Scott. Also on < that afternoon the girls base-ball : team, having won a game against ] the Y W C A secretaries on the . previous day, were challenged by the young men who have positions at the hotel for the summer. The boys styled themselves "Ladies," played in skirts and won the game by a score of fourteen to eleven. This game caused more pleasant raillery in the dining-room. Platform lectures took up the evenings. Some of the lecturers were Dr Ralston, pastor of the First Presbyterian church at Charlotte, N C; Dr Owen, an Episcopal minister; Dr Brauk from Savannah, Ga; Mr Hounshell, a returned missionary from China; Dr Knight and Dr Rain. These are men who are not only doing great things but have already done great things. Two of the lectures were on "Prayer," ? ? s? ?? tWO OD oervictf, UUC nice uiuu^m that Dr Knight gave us was that he thought a summer conference must be something like Jesus' "Sermon on the Mount." I could not stop without saying something about the ladies of the conference,MissCaroline Dow andjthe noble, sweet-faced women who aided 1 her in making the conference a sue- 1 cess. Miss Mildred Rutherford, a j dear old Georgia lady, was the j hostess. Dr Brown, Miss Casler, Miss Burner, Miss Porter. Mrs * Bledsoe, Miss Adams, Miss Binford, Mi ?3 Helen Crane and lots of others MR.

They gave you loads of ideas to work out for the good of your own particular Y W C A next year. As the Y W C A's went out the Y M C A's came in. Wonder if they will get as much good and have as much fun as we did? We had a glorious time and as we climbed into the carriages to catch the train at Black mountain we burst into one of the dining-room songs: 0, Blue Ridge we love you! 0, Blue Ridge so dear! You think we don't love you? "'L-i - r?i:?u i t vvnat a luuuau iuca . . "Chicora Delegate." Gourdin, S C, June 21. Hall Carriers Will Fly. This is an age of great discoveries.
