Miss Beulah Borst, of Akron. led the
singing, and the meeting was full of
enthusiasm, which was intensified by
singing such songs as Boston 49,"
Business was commenced at $50 A. M,
Miss Alberta D. CARRIER presiding in
very graceful manner. After appoint
ments of seasonal committees. the Pres
ident gave her annual address which
contained no discouraging words.
The Reports of the Recording and
Corresponding Secretaries and that of
the Treasurer were then presented. The
latter showed the finances to be in a
very good condition, but they would
have been more so had all Unions held
a Convention Social. Several have
promised to do this yet.
The Presidents of the different Associ-
ational Unions and Conferences pre-
sented encouraging reports, and Mary
Grace Garfield, National Superintendent
of the Junior Work made an urgent plea
that the young children be organized in
TO Junior Unions.

Miss Borst conducted another excellent
song service.

the practical work of the Union. The
amendments to the Constitution provid-
ing for a Nominating Committee, and
that at least two new members of the
Executive Board shall be elected each
