MRS, I, H, CURET0N ELECTED
 PRESIDENT OF ARIZONA FED.

istence and advancement of this
 Federation depends up on the
 work If the individual club s-
 It is all ol'. saying, but true
 one, that mo chs%i,, is stronger
 than it's weakest link" and each
 individual club is an important
 link in the Federation.
 I never before saw so much
 enthusiasm at a Woman's Club
 Convention. It seems that a
 moving force has taken pos
 session of each one of iIs, and
 now while your enthusiasm is
 high, is the best time for me to
 present my earnest plea that you put forth your very best ef- forts during the coming year.
 Try to make your club better than it ever has been before. You represent the greatest cul- tural force in your community outside of the schools. want to see each club function prop
 erly as a vital factor in the civic, social and, intellectual life of your community. The method by which you attain this high efficiency will necessarily vary in different localities. So don't be discouraged if you have not succeeded. Try some other method. Maybe it is because you don't advertise enough. The slogan that it pays to advertise applies as much to Woman's Clubs as to any business concern. When you have news of interest or unusual achievement send it to the press.
 The next two years of this Federation is now in the hands of new administration, and we give you our earnest pro- mise to work conscientiously and untiringly for. the cause of Women's Clubs. We wish to the debt we owe our predecessors, whose service has been of inestimable value to the advancement of our cause. Excellent work has been done in the past years which renders it possible for us to make substantial progress the next twoyears.
 "The administration is going to compare our State Fedora :ion with other State Fedora tions and we are going to work for as strong a Federation as our population and wealth en- title us to have
 'tWe will deote ourselves to two definite objects. The first object is to increase the number of clubs in our state. We want more clubs and stronger clubs slogan will be "a club ia every town.
 The second object is to estab- ish close relations between the State Federation and the gen eral Federation and to obtain proper recognition from the general Federation. The way 70 do this is to establish mere :lubs and a greater cooperation and unification of the clubs We must have a strengthening of Federation machinery, be- ore our organization can-com- nand the consideration and that is rightfully it's ,wr, and take it's proper place in the General Federation"
