Movement Of American Woman.
 League for Chapter House.

E. C. Lewis of the Lewis Publishing company of St Louis. founder of the American WOman's league. has offered the Phoenix chapter slOO as a special bonus toward the purchase of lot for the chapter house of the league. This offer is conditioned only on the chap ter having a membership of thirty six by March 1, its present membership being .thirty-two. The local chapter therefore needs only four more mem bers by Saturday night to secure the sl00.
 The thirty-two members of the chan ter are naturally very anxious to se- cure these four. While they are scout ing around among their friends to that end they call attention to the fact that they may be rendered great service by some who are already affiliated with the work of the league. but who hasve not become members of any particular chapter. They may be only temporary visitors in the valley. but they will be welcomed to join the local chapter. which perhaps they can do more good just now than by joining any other
 The secretary of the Phoenix chap ter is Mrs. R. G. Phillips of 325 North Fourth avenue, and any person w,.o desires ta affiliate with the chapter can secure all the necessary informa- ton by applying to her.
