a. M Lunches will be served by the

Of Indianapolis, is proposed for presi-
dent. She Joined the organization in
1885 and in 1887 was elected secretary of
her corps. She filed the position of
department president of the Indiana
corps, for two terms, the position of
national aid, and has been assistant
national inspector twice. She was APP
pointed to this position two years ago
when Mrs Wallace was national
president. She is a very energetic
woman and one of ability and her
friends are hopeful for her election to
the highest office in the order this
week. The candidate for the senior
vice presidency is usually a resident
of the city in which the encampment
! is held and Mrs. Henry HaZenWinkle
is being urged to take the position.
She has filled many offices in the de-
partment of Minnesota and has done
good work in the various positions. She
joined the organiZa ton in 1884 and was
elected department secretary in 1885,
department instituting and installing
officer the following year, organizing
relief corps outside the state, which
entailed a vast amount of travel In
1883 she was department inspector and
has been the president of this states
department for the past year. She has
also held positions in the three local
corps, most often the position of secre-
tary, which office she filled with abil-
ity Mrs Hazenwinkle's husband and
brothers were in the war and she has
always felt great interest in patriotic
subjects. A resident Of this city for
forty years she has many friends and
acquaintance who would be glad to
see her fill this high office. The trea-
surer, Mrs. Isabelle Bagley, who is es,
tablished at the Ryan, will probably
retain her office as it is no easy thing
to find competent woman for this
position and reflections to this office
are customary. The secretary will be
appointed by the president, according
to the ordinary practice.
