Nebraska's Y. W. C. A. Foreign Secre
tary Passes Awav Was Ne
. braska Graduate.
Word was received today of the
death of Miss Grace Coppock, Nebras
ka's Y. W. C. A. secretary in Shanghai,
China. Miss Coppock was the national

Miss Coppock was graduated from
the University of Nebraska in 1905.
While in this school she was very act
ive in Y. W. C. A. work and was a
member of Black Masque.
Miss Coppock is the foreign Y. W.
C. A. secretary whose support the Uni

dertook when tho Y. W. C. A. was
organized in China in 1907. She has
been executive of the ninety Y. W. C.
A. secretaries in China for ten years.
There is no woman whoso opinion
on Y. W. C. A. problems was more
highly valued than that of Grace Cop
pock. She traveled around the world
several times in the interest of the
Y. W. C. A. and attended the last
world meetinw of Y. W. C. A. secretar
ies in Switzerland two years ago. On

The loss of Miss Coppock will not
only be felt in Y. W. C. A. circles, but
everyone who has ever come in con
tact with her wll remember her keen
sense cf humor and sympathetic un
derstanding. Miss Coppock's unusual
executive ability and her understand
ing of girls problems in the Orient
made her loved by the eastern girls
as well as by the girls of her own
country.
