at the National Capital a building to

spacious as any in the country. and other
rooms for the meeting of congresses or
conventions OF smaller size, Office rooms
for the headquarters of the various or.
CARNATIONS that may be associated with
the project, and students research
rooms.
1t is proposed by the association to
raise $4,000 600 for the building and

may use the building without charge
The appeal issued by the president of
the association, Mrs. Henry +. Dimock,
says:
This building must be the nations

must have part in it. 1 ask each one
of you to contribute at least one dollar
