 Owing to the unusual interest in the great gathering. it was felt that the largest and best auditorium the city could afford would hardly give sufficient accommodation for the throngs that would attend. Massey Music hall with a seating capacity of 4.0O0, was there fore chosen as the place to hold the evening sessions. To accommodate busy people and to guarantee the expenses of the meetings. the hall committee are reserving a number of seats, which may be procured on application to Mrs. Will son, Lowther avenue, Toronto, for $1 each.
 These tickets are numbered, and sub- scribers will have the right to select their seats a few days before the con- vention in the order in which they sub- scribed for the tickets. The applica tions even at this early date have been very numerous. not only from the citi-

 The hospitality committee numbers about 40. Mrs. Baseom. who has had a great deal of experience in this line, is chairman. Already invitations from some of the best homes of the city to entertain the distinguished guests have come in, and it is confidently expected that in good time accommodation will be provided for the 250 expected dele- gates.
 The transportation and reception com mittee will meet all trains, receive the delegates and direct them to headquar- ters or to the homes where they are to be entertained. The season of the year will not permit excursion trips, the only feasible place being Niagara Falls.

ters in connection with the Worlds Woman's Christian Temperance union is Miss Olifia Johansdottir, the presi- dent of the National W. c. T. U. of Ice land Miss Johansdottir sailed from Iceland last month for Norway and England and comes to Canada to the great gathering of the worlds white ribboners in Toronto. Her ancestors settled in Iceland in the fifteenth cen- tury, being Irish religious fugitives. For generations her relatives have been famous patriots and have figured con- spicuously in the national struggle for freedom from Danish rule. Olifia's par ents died when she was very young, and her training devolved upon maid en aunt and bachelor uncle. Her aunt and uncle wield wide political power and are well informed on sociological subjects. Her uncle is speaker of the lower house of parliament, and her aunt's voice is often heard in public gatherings, particularly in those that concern the interests of women.
 With such a heritage it is not sur prising that Olifia is universally ac- knowledged to be the leader among the women of her country. She received an excellent education and has travelled great deal, studying the great social problems. The burning ambition of her life is to bring the women of her country to an absolute equality with the men. It is a we'll known fact that the women of Iceland already possess more privileges than in any other Eu- ropean country, but only perfect jus~ tice will satisfy the great souled lead- CT of the north.
