for the general good. more than un-
usual amount of executive talent in the
management, together with single

fastness Of purpose on the part Of clubs
these are the factors that have pro-
duced our federation, whose power is
felt from ocean to ocean.
One Of the greatest achievements has
been to stimulate members and clubs
alike to more thorough and ambitious
work, thus benefitting themselves and
their auditors. to show that musical art
has its followers the world over; for as
we improve and understand, and as our
difficulties are removed, 80 do our aims
become broader and greater. BY this

In the small town the musical club is

The public sentiment which it creates

We believe therefore. that it is not nee
essary to say that the benefits to be

ton are many and real; and do not
hinder nor limit the work of any club,
nor do clubs pledge themselves to take
up any line OF work. The federation
simply offers sympathy and co-opera-

really grow until they have learned the
practical lesson Of service to others. Ii

The west has as progressive clubs as
any section in the general federation.
Bring your aims and enthusiasm to
bear upon the federation. As each in
dividual has something peculiarly char
acteristic to contribute 70 her club, so
each club has something to. contribute
to the federation. All clubs can assist
in debating plans and methods. They
can indicate their wishes regarding
programs. subjects for discussion, time
OF meeting, or any other feature for its
improvement. 1t has occurred to you
all, but it is we'll worth bearing in mind.
THE more one gives away OF his money
possessions, the poorer he is; while the
more one gives away or shares bis intel
