 i The Arizona Federation of Women's
 Clubs will meet in Tucson i'll January.
 | This will be the most important con- vention since that of d few years ago when the question of suffrage came l before the members. Peace the
 most discussed subject in this coun- try today, will undoubtedly be an issue and while many other topics that are receiving the attention of the general federation will come up for consideration, those of local bearing will be given prominent place on the program. It is election year, and that, too. will add to the interest of the convention. As vet, no candidates names have been presented. Relative to the program, Mrs. Henry D. Ross, the president in asking the co-op- eration of the clubs has issued the following important notice:
 ''To the Presidents of the Federated Clubs of the Sate:
 [ Article 1. Section ?. of the By Laws provides that the program com mittee shall consist of the executive committee, with the president as chairman.
 The executive committee is now arranging the program for the Janu- ary convention. If your club has any suggestions to make, any subjects to submit, or any speakers to offer will you please communicate with the president at once? We will be very grateful for your cooperation, and will promise to consider carefully any material yoI may offer"
 The subject of club houses and their uses that is of widespread interest just now, should strike a sympathetic note in this county, where there are So many rural clubs and even school houses that might be utilized in the ways suggested by those' who have made d study of the question. It is agreed by all that the Woman's club house be more than a place of club

As q community center the club house will appeal to many women who should belong tO clubs but are timid about asking for membership. think ing that the club is some exclusive institution.
