partment of the general fedration and should be in active and close co-opera- ton with that department. Every club and every aggregation of clubs should see to it that waste of effort is elimi- mated, and that forward movement is not hampered by out-grown methods. The council meeting. which will be held in New Orleans April 10-12. 1917, will be an occasion when the club women of the country will have an opportunity to en- joy the far-famed hospitality of Louis jana. The programme promises well for council in every sense of the word. The plans of the local board offer many unique and interesting features. We trust there will be a large attendance from the club women of evry southern state, and that the gathering may be source of inspiration to all participants.
 The fourteenth biennial convention of the General Federation of Wornen's s Clubs will occur in Hot Springs, Ark, the first week in May, 1918. From now on this well known United States govern ment reservation will be the mecca for club women all over the country. Keep these dates in mind and prepare to send a full delegation.
