Club gossip just at present centers Ia
the subject of the choice of the pres1-
dent of the city federation to succeed
Mrs. H 0. Garvey, who after a years
successful administration OF the office
refuses to receive the nomination for an
other term. The friends of Mrs. A H.
Horton have been suggesting her name
during the past fortnight, rather fur
lively. il is true. because she has her
self not yet been consulted. but with
growing conviction that she is the best
available candidate for the place Mrs.
Horton is a member of the Good Gov
eminent club and the Daughters of the
American Revolution. She has several
times been mentioned for the presidency
of the federation but has always de-
clined to accept the nomination on ac-
count of family cares and duties.
There can be but one opinion as to Mrs.
Horizons ability and she would undoubt-
eddy make a strong candidate.
