example in the work for the veteran we shall
sorely miss. Many of the members present at
the National Convention at Washington will
doubtless remember the sole representative
from Oklahoma in the W.RC., who ionrneved
so far TO learn more of the work, and who
brought home with her fresh inspiration in the
cause. An immediate result of her visit with
her sisters there was the formation of new
Department of the W.R.C., of which she was
elected the first President

occasion of the trip 10 the Convention at Wash
