to the securing Of charter, ritual, badges, &c,
we would suggest that the society continue in
its present work until after the organization
at Denver, when, if union is successfully
brought about, the work will become uniform
all over the country, and societies and consti-
tutions may be rclAodeled accordingly. To all
ladies expecting to organize under the new
order of things, we would say: Come together
and learn to carry on your meetings in a bus
iness-like manner, and so be prepared for the
work of the future.
Mrs. Emily Thornton Charles, Of the National
Veteran, viii represent the Washington, ID. c.,
Auxiliary at Denver. Mrs. Charles is the
author OF many beautiful war poems, writing
over the signature of Emily Hawthorne.
A lady, writing us of the progress of new
society, says: 1 presume it will be quite nec-
essary to add that the chairman was half an
hour late; that the minutes of the last meet
ing did not arrive until the session was half
over, and the treasurer came in just in time to
read her report before time to adjourn" If
any society feels that the shoe pnches, we hope
it viii put it on. Promptness in attendance
and the discharge of duties, ladies Order is
Heavens first law and should be the first law
of Woman's Auxiliary.
VIII some one note the request for recipe
for making whisky pickles and send it along
before the season comes for making them?
Mrs. G. T. Clark, secretary of the Columbus
Auxiliary, wife of Department Commander
Clark, and Mrs. David Lanning, wife of the As

Columbus delegation to Denver.
Miss Clara Barton, the distinguished army
nurse and philanthropist, will be present at the
