the committee so that outside clubs
may keep in touch with the work their
fellow musicians are accomplishing.
At the convention to be held in Long
Beach in the spring the various clubs
will be represented, and it is hoped
that there may be one entire program
devoted to a songfest in which vocal
departments from all the clubs will
contribute. The exact plan for this
is not complete as yet, but may result
in the formation of one big chorus Of
wofnen's voices to be directed by a
local musician, the songs having been
practiced in the individual clubs before
the convention. Many other plans are
under consideration, and by the time
the club work for the season really
begins the music department will un-
doubtedly be completely organized.
