(Isield Chairman of Endowment, Gen
eral Federation of Women's Clubs)
New York, May 25.-We are ready
to announce that the 100000 andow-
ment fund Of the Federated Clubs has
been fully contributed by the clubwo-
men Of the United States. The an
nouncement will be formally made at
the national convention now going on
here.
When the growing need Of a larger
income for the General Federation be-
came too great to b. ignored il was
proposed either to INCREASE the dues
or raise an endowment
Larger dues might shut out some
clubs from membership and the wo-
men gathered at Cincinnati for the
Biennial Convention Of 1910 realized
the value, not only to the club women
themselves, but to the country as
whole. OF this body Of women coming
together from every state and from
every condition Of life to plan for tho
common welfare.
Women who were les-aing TO under
stand and sympathize with circum-
stances foreign to their own home sur
and TO recognize the obiga-
ton resting on them to do their share
in building up the nation.
To reduce the number of those
brought under the influence of the
General Federation could not be con
sidered so the plan Of an endowment
vas adopted.
