taken this little ceremony ION its
own" consequently delegations have
been constantly turning up missing"
at the sessions OF the congress, and
altogether this new order of pro-
cedure would seem to be rather a bet
ter arrangement -
For the rest, morning and after
noon sessions, reports, addresses, and
business meetings will proceed pretty
much as in other years; the brief
intervals between the various ses-
sions being filed by entertaining for
the individual delegates to the con-
gress. And I mustn't forget to men
tipn another new feature of the. con-
vention, the exhibit of photographs
showing the various wartime 'ac-
tivities of the d. A. R., particularly
the society's work for the American
izatiOn of foreigners, which will be
on view at Memorial Continental Hall.
It's well worth seeing.
