At the Instituto I mot many of of the girls and they are all sincerely interested in carrying on the work which they have started. I particularly liked Virginia’s charm, and genuine friendliness. She also is as natural as she seems to be. Her personality exudes the friendly spirit which makes friends easily/ I folt as if perhaps I had knov/n her long before I mot her although I had only hoard about hor and what she was doing. I know you will like hor whon you moot her---you just can’t help yoursolf.
Socorro Moreno is just like one of us girls. With any of those kids wo could just drop in and start talking about things in general and discussing our problems, and we would fool at homo. Somehow as I listened to Socorro present some of the problems they wore mooting, I suddenly realized that I felt as if I wore back home and wo wore talking about those things. The problems of the Mexican Youth are tho some everywhere regardless of tho city or noighborhood wo live in.
