A WOMANSPLEA FOR THE BIRDS

Los Angeles, Cal, May 5.-Club wo-
men We're treated TO floral surprise
this morning, for when they entered the
great auditorium, which last week was
decorated with GO0Oe Gala lilies, they
were greeted with the odor of thou
sands of pink carnations, which had re-
placed the lilies as a solid background
TO the platform and as a border to the
two balconies. The local committee
was up at daybreak and with a corps
OF assistants accomplished their task Of
adornment for the opening session at
$3.50 o'clock.
This flower feature, which is such a
distinguishing mark of the California
convention, began by local committees
meeting trains at outlying stations
with loads OF boquets. Almost every
day during the convention lunches of
blossoms are handed around, while the
delegate who does not receive from
some source a boquet or box OF or
anges at regular intervals belongs to
the order Of the overlooked.
Mrs. loves room is hover power
from morning til night.
There is an air OF expectancy on
every delegates face this morning, for
there is a probability Of the color que
ton cropping out.
The first big business session is on
and the report OF the committee on re-
Incorporation. headed by Mrs. Mary
Lockwood, may bring lively develop
mcnts.
Mrs Irick submitted the report Of
the Audubon societies, She said In part
"The friends OF bird life have not
been inactive during the past biennial
period Audubon societies have been
organized in most OF the states Of the
Union. looking 10 the protection Of birds
life and other organizations have
worked TO the same end. In this con-
