Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Handbook: Of the Young Womens Christian Association Movement To the gentle reader within or without the Association who looks to find compressed within one book the principles and practice of the Young Women´s Christian Association, this book is commended. The Association reader will not expect to find here a strangely new theme, since a useful handbook is not a product of the imagination. The one who lays it down with "our Association isn´t at all like that," may call to mind that there are 907 Young Women´s Christian Associations besides her own, and that this book to have truth as well as value must needs have been a composite view. A third who turns the page with eager fingers to "learn at last what my committee ought to do" will discover that this book is not technical in treatment. Eleven authors with eleven points of view and eleven obviously different ways of saying things, have told different parts of the Association story, each telling as she sees it today, the needs of girls that have evoked this manifestation and that, and the ways in which Association ideals are propagated in different communities and Associations are bound together for mutual strengthening and for ministry to women the world around. As the first fruits of the Commission on the Training of Volunteer Workers, this book will fill a demand that has been earnestly and frequently made. It will find ready use in training classes and groups formed for the definite study of the Association movement. Indeed if we may quote the opinion of those who have reviewed the manuscript, this Handbook will be of use not only to every Association volunteer and secretary, but to all those interested in the welfare of women.
