Hester, chairman of the entire pro
gram committee, has designed meth
cd Of breaking up the ordinary list OF
papers which 1t Is expected VIII llghten
all the sessions. This method is as
follows First there will be confer
ence OF the chairmen Of the depart
ment that is to appear Then the
federation chairman Of that department
will read the reports as briefly as pos
sible. Then an address on the topic
which has engrossed the attention of
that especial department viii be given
by an expert, and then will follow dis
custom lnterspersed with the discus
sion win be musical numbers, both vo-
cal and Instrumental and readings by
skilled entertainers. This, it Is hoped,
will afford an element Of brightness
otherwise impossible to put into a
morning or afternoon given over solely
to dry talks by even clever women. The
state is being secured for desirable

probability Is that the Chicago school
would call for three times the $1,000

to not only interest local clubs In the
enterprise but women generally. Miss
