CLUB CHAT.

A cable report OF the annual executive
session Of the International Coun-
ell Of Women held at The
Hauge indicates successful
and profitable session, at which the two
national councils Of France and Of Ar
gentina were received into the interna-
tional.
Most unfortunately the council OF the
United States was not represented at
all, Mrs. Alice Wheeler Pierce, the al
ternate of Mrs -Helmuth, not re-
ceiving her notice TO go 70 The Hague
until July 18th, after the executive was
closed
Letters from the council Of Argentina
give a most interesting story OF the
work in that country. They held their
own executive session on June 9th, be
cause that was their national day-that
Is TO them what the Fourth Of July Is
to the United States-and they wished
to vote aiiiiation with the international
council as a form OF celebrating the es-
adjustment Of their own republic. That
council now includes forty-four socie-
ties II has established a magazine AZ
a means OF communication among the
different organizations belonging TO II,
and seems TO be not only on a very
sound footing, but infused with a very
progressive spirit.
There is also from Bulgaria a
most interesting report OF the
formation OF a national council Of that
country. The report contained formal
application for membership In the in
ternational council, and gives notice
that their national council includes
fourteen national societies.

women managers Of the Pan-American
Exposition a room has been given 10

mans club building for headquarters
during the months Of August ana
September. There win be a bureau on
information open daily from eleven TO
