 To The Women of Alaska.
 My recent visit to the magic land oi the North has made me extreme ly eagar to see more Womens Clubs organized in Alaska; these clubs sl.ould then organize into a terri torial federation, and in May IoI6, come into the General Federation of Women's Clubs.
 Students of present day affairs are United in the opinion that no force has done more for the social uplift, for the betterment of home conditions, and for the improve ment ot the child than the waman' s club movement.
 It is by no means difficult io gather in a community a group of women who will gladly read or study together to prepare them selves for some line of civil action. There already exist ip Alaska enough clubs to form a territorial organization.
 Mrs. Frank White, the chairman of our membership committee, Valley City, N. Dak., Mrs. Mary l. Wood, the manager of the Bureau of lnformotiQn, Portsmouth, New Hampshire. and Mrs. William P. Harper, Director of the General Federation, 65I kinnear Place, Seattle. Wash, will gladly answer any questions as to the best steps Of organizing and of coming into the Federation. All the forty. nine ] states in our rganization stand ready to welcome most warmly. Alaska.
