Wai- Fund Iiudget cannot be touch

therefore i? has been found neces

funds for the regular work in cur

field of that work lia.s been enlarg

the church, or for business, or for
any worth while enterprise. It has
become necessary to take in more
territory and h''ii'ce it murd. reach
out. in more territory for aid. So
whole states have been organized
and jju-t now the North Central
Field composed of North and South
Dakota. Nebraska. Minnesota and
Iowa are carrying on a campaign
to raise $122. SoT. Nebraska is-assessed
for ? 20,32 4 and is lined up

you don't fully understand to what

of your precinct; she will be able
to explain in general, for the extent
of Y. W. C. A. work is too. great and
results too far reaching to be ex

the close of the campaign a report
will be made through the papers,
