ranks, bear more than ever an abiding
affection for you and our beloved cause.
hope every member in the division will
find it her pleasure to make not cursory
review of the minutes, but d real study
of them. 1t were a wise thing if ca Il
chapter should devote one meeting to Il
reading of the actual pr oceedings-then
afterwards, the reports of officers COM
nittees and chapters. The benefit of III
formation thus gained would be inspir ng
~ helpful In this last word to you
wish to express my qualification AT
plans were provided at Camden for suffi-
cient funds for the speedy completion OF
the Sallie Jones scholarship-ftting me-
mortal to the founder Of our organization.
l hope and believe that all chapters viii h
SO generously contributed to make this
scholarship available. viii redeem their
pledges promptly at their first meetings..
To other chapters who were not at Cam
den, the convention ordered to be sent
special word asking that they. too, con-
tribute TO this memorial that these chap
ters also might be recorded among those
honoring themselves by assisting in this
work OF love. This record viii go out to
the world, and 7 am sure no chapter win
wish to have it's name omitted from this
roll of honor"
The memorial cholarship to your fourd-
er should claim your immediate attention
before any other work of the division To
lnser over il or allow it TO be pushed
chanter which hos not promised should
send in its contribution soon, that it's
name may be enrolled with those already

president. the work of making this me-
,lforial scrS'larship speedily available has
been Entrusted.
Now just a word about the university
boulder and stained glass window. to
which / hope each chapter viii contrib
ute during the year. While this was in
tended for a combined work. and my idea
was to have the memorial window and
boulder dedicated at the same time, | have
consented, in Difference to Mrs. Bryce's
wishes. TO have the boulder dedicated
first. This does not mean that you should
send what you contribute to the boulder
alone, but whatever money you send
should be for both, part for the boulder
and part for the window.
These contributions, either for Sallie
Jones scholarship or university memorials.
should be sent direct to our Alabama d.
vision treasurer, Mrs. r. B. Dickerson.
Greenville. Mrs. Dickerson will then turn
q yer the money as follows For the Sallie
10 mes. memorial, to Mrs. L. r. White,

stain ed glass window, to Mrs. Belle r.
