tronbled with the bills after ihrT have
been sent in to the Treasurer
II took me at least two or three
months this year TO get the committees
filed go many refusing to serve and if
the convention elects them, it will near /
| ~ always be those who are present and
they can say right there whether or not
they will ferve. 1t will al.o be cousiJ |
cred greater honor than il they are
appointed and will therefore be easier
to get them to serve. Therefore ! sub .
mt the following
CAmend Art G,:Sec. ?, by adding, The .
members Of the committees TO be elect F..
ed by the annual Division convention
Sec 3 by adding, And the Division |.
Historian, who shall be chairman Of |
the committee, the member, Of which .
shall be elected by the annual Division .
convention.
The national convention at Richmond |

following to the Divisions and gsu will
| am sure agree with me in thinking
them the proper thing to do We d.
not want Mississippi to be bnnlud o.hrI
States and our room is now wei. iilI"a
with relics which must be carefully
AIRED for, and it is certainly well to
nave a sum Of money on hand each
year to purchase other interesting rel
Ics which our Regent finds She can grl
therefore this amendment
Amend Art, by adding N-o J. a
museum committee to be composed Of
three members the State Regent who
shall be chairman, and two others TO be
appointed by the Division President
who shall be member eN Ofi.jo
! am sure you will agree with me in |
thinking it too much to ask of any one |
person to push this Home matter and
since our President may be changed
every year think it will be well to
have a permanent Committrt TO push
this matter until we get what We are
"i'eF' l therefore submit 'He l""o"lh&
