In this dawn of the Twentiet h Gen.
 tury woman appears in a far more
 prominent position than at any pre-
 vious period, and it is therefore fitting
 that the ways in which she aSachieV-
 ed this prominence and the means
 whereby she hopes to keep it should
 be brought before the public. It is
 desired by the managers of this depart
 ment that on this occasion the repre-
 sentatiOn of the trades and industries
 of women should be as comprehensive
 and varied as possible. Therefore,
 women of all parts of the country are
 urged to respond to this invitation to exhibit their work. They will thus
 aid greatly in the success of the expO- sitiOn and also create greater interest
 in their own endeavorS l OFFICIAL CLASSIFICATION OF EXHIBITS: State Collective Exhibits

 Although this circular explains it. self, there may be room for some especial mention of it's scope. It is intended to cover an exhibit of the bett work of the women of our state, both past and present. Among those who eagerly look for THE BEE, there must be many who could contribute, and wish each one .o feel called on to respond. We have limited time and space, for both of which reasons it would be wise to get in an early application, and to avoid duplicates. Every facility will be employed to in- sure safe carriage, proper exhibition and return of all loans, and articles for sale will have competent and trustworthy handling. This depart ment is exclusively for women's work. Address for particulars, and in writing fully describe your exhibit D. Beach, 78 Wall street, New Haven.
