Ihe annual address of the president
of the Woman's Relief Corps, Miss
Maude L: Mefrick OF Waterville was
presented at the afternoon session of
that organization. Miss Merrick made
the following recommendations:
First, that the incoming department
president ana her inspector prepare a
circular giving full instructions. and
mail a copy to each corps president and
assistant inspector before Sept. |. This
recommendation is made because the
president found. during her inspection
of 16 corps, that the ritual is being in
terpreted differently.
Secondly, that the district conven-
tiOns be continued under the direction
of the department president and the
department inspector.
Thirdly, that the report of the dele
gate large no longer be printed and
mailed to the corps. as national general
orders giving the decisions of the con-
ventiOn are issued very soon after the
convention and National Journals are
sent to every corps within three
months.
Fourthly, that the per capita tax be
reduced one cent, making it nine cents
per member, per quarter the same to
take effect with the quarter ending
June 80, 1910, as the national conven-
ton will this year be held at Atlantic
CITY, N. j., and the travelling expenses
will therefore be less.
