business session and election of officers

shall. vice president. to succeed Miss

This music club is one Of the most
worthy in the city. The credit for the
original idea of such a club belongs to
Miss Nancy Reed, who. with five other
young ladies. Miss Marion West, Miss
Minnie West (now Mrs. Orville B.
Drown, Miss Halle Franklin (now
MrE Godfrey Bell. of California;, Miss
Tryphena Reed, and Miss Katharine May
Brooks, effected an organization four
years ago last February.
1t is through the efforts of Mrs Drown,
Miss West, and Miss Brooks that the
club has been such a phenomenal success,
as both the Miss Reeds dropped out at
an early stage and Mrs Bell has been
away from Washington for three years.
The three young ladies' remaining be-
lieved in the worthy object of their or
ganization and pushed on. with the re-
suit that the active membership of the
club now numbers fourteen and the as
sociate membership sixteen.
Next season will be the first that Miss
West and Miss Brooks have not been
required to serve on the executive board
Of the club. This shows how effective
their efforts have been to inspire the
new members with their own ambitions
for the success of the club The new
members are not only willing but eager
to take hold of the real work of pro-
viding the programmes and keeping up
the high standard of the club as set by
its founders.
