that degree of confidence and proper self assertion which are the forerunners of success.
 T can readily understand that your problems in many respects here differ from our problems in New York, although with a common purpose Mrs. Dutton continued. We could no more prescribe the ways for you here than you could fol us in New York. This does not mean. however, that there are not purposes in common which are consistent with all our endeavors.
 My business utilization has been with women l am the business manager of a corporation, with &> board of directors composed of 40 women," Mrs. Dutton said They are a remarkable board and inde fatigable in their activities. A little while ago heard a well known lawyer and or ator say:
 received one of my greatest inspir- ations when I placed my hand on the tombstone of a soldier in the little cems- tery of Princeton university recently. : heard that federal judge said, the proud est moment in his life was when he told his mother about his appointment Now, say, if two such men have inspirations and proudest moments from events sucn as 1 named, let the women of the Ma tional Federation of Professional and Business Women combine the two~ and make themselves a force in the land ana let us dedicate our efforts, our purposes, the best in us, to the memory of our American women who lie buried in France; those wonderful women trained nurses and volunteer workers, who gave their lives for their country"

smallest child in the public school. through the music department of our state universities. which eventually must be the nucleus of state orchestras and state choral societies, and looking for ward to the establishment of a national conservatory which shal enroll in it's faculty teachers of international fame, each step in musical education is filled with significance. We do what we do, believing that music is, in sober fact, the only international language" and that knowledge and understanding of that language makes for better citizen ship.
 The plans are in the making for the eleventh biennial convention. When de- ciding to assemble at Peterborough. we were influenced by the thought that in these unsettled times of warfare a pill grimage to the shrine of America S great est composer would inspire loftier pat riotism and renewed dedication to the highest ideals of the National Fedora ton of Musical clubs.
 The camp recreation committee is re- organizing it's work the country over. and everywhere is seeking men and women to lead in the work of holding at high pitch the enthusiasm for camp singing, for community singing. By whatever name it may be called, group singing mass singing-is universally recognized as great constructive force.
 It was used to build up and strength en the morale of the men in training camps: 1t was used to comfort and en- courage the men enduring the. hardships and dangers of the trench and the battle front it must be used to establish com radeship and mutual confidence as the men return to their former occupations.
 It takes it to be the very great priv ilege as well as the bounden duty of the music clubs to put forth greater effort to support and encourage this great Ann ercanizing force.
 Our soldiers proved their willingness to die for an ideal democracy. Have we proved our willingness to so live that an ideal democracy may rule the world?
 We must not fail to recognize the great opportunity that has come to the music club.
 In the necessary readjustment of work. I again urge the music club to think deeply of it's obligation to the commit nifty; to extend it's work to a very gen. erous help in all local needs; to prove it's faith in things American by support ing American art and artists.
 I know of no other plan which will more effectively broaden the life of the music club to a realization of the na- tional opportunity.

Mrs. Ida /. DuttOn

M AT Rs. Ida J, Dutton, the distin- | IlWll guished business manager of the oNS New York Exchange for Wom- ems work, who came to Birmingham with a message for the Business and Profes sional Women's clubs, now in state con ference here, has right royalty deliy- cred her message.
 Mrs. Dutton is a typical New Yorker; she is one of those charming women brim full of enthusiasm and energy, who. as long as she lives, will bring a fresh viewpoint and new angle to any busl- ness proposition which she elects to dis cuss. and her own experiences in the business world, of which she is such an
 important and valued factor in the great city of New York, make her at once an inspiration and an example of what wom- en can accomplish in the commercial world when they set their hearts and hands toward the high standards
 Of stunning appearance graceful and stylish, with an air of exquisite elegance and refinement, Mrs. Dutton impresses one as being one of the most attractive types of business women one meets, and for this reason I sought her out to hear from her own lips some of the messages of inspiration and encouragement she brought to Birmngham-to Alabama-to the south, to the splendid business women here.
 A bit of history in regard to Mrs Dut- tons business career right here seems to me sapropos, and l may as well say at the start that she represents the execu- tivescommittee of the National Federation of Business and Professional Women and she Types in her personality and her ex- perience the theory of the federation.
 Mrs. Dutton's professional career began as trained nurse in the city of New York where she specialized in surgical cases under the direction of such eminent surgeons as the late Doctors McCosh, POLK and Markoe. Unconsciously she had been preparing herself in the fundamentals of business. In several cases she was called upon to assist in the management ot the business affairs of recuperating patlents.

tWlI dent of the National Federation SVS of Music clubs, sends the fol- lowing message to Alabama musicians:
 Musicians everywhere must rejoice that it was at time when every resource of our country must be utilized to the highest limit of efficiency "to preserve us a nation." that music was given the high place to which it has ever been entitled.
 The 475 clubs, approximating 100000 members, probably represent not more than one-thrd of the music clubs in the country We believe it is not only the privilege but the duty of every music club and individual musician to join the federation and add the force of their working influence towards a broader ac- conplishment. Always striving to inz crease it's usefulness in a programme Of activities, the National Federation of Musical Clubs has a generous vision out reaching the boundaries of a charter. It is ever ready for service in national un- dertakings for musical extension.
 We have ever been convinced of the Fundamental necessity of music in the life of the nation.
