 year. Further plans were made for ington near the White House, which could be purchased now for this noble purpose. We cou'G have downtown office and downtown locality Is nec- essary for our purpose, easy. of ac- cess. where when you clubwomen come to the capital you could find place to live and fail at once into re- lations with your own kind. Such club houses are very paying propo- sitions in Washington where several organizations l-ss important in size and function than ours are running them. (The club where I am stay ing pays all itI overhead expenses by renting rooms to visitors and women living here.)
 Won't you sstand by" You club women respond .o the call of every noble purpose Just now some of you are contributing to a large pro1- ect in Washington not connected with the federation. Will you not support your own organization first? Many of you have told n,e you believed in me and would back me in anything l asked, so I am appealing to you per sonaily It is, however, not for me but for the sake of this vitalizing of our womanhood that I ask you to support national headquarters.
 Cordially yours,
 ALICE AMES WINTER, President, General Federation of
 Womans Clubs.
