II The beautiful building of Memorial
Continental Hall, which be,c to the
d. A. RS will be used for many of the
conventions and receptions, though
I many exclusive private entertainments
are planned for the guests.
Invitations have already been re-
ceived in San Antonio from the Penn
sylvania Chapter of the d. A. r. to
a very elaborate reception which will
be given in the New Willard Hotel,
in honor of Mrs. Anthony Wayne
Cooke, who is Pennsylvania candi-
date for the coveted position Of presi-
dent general of the ID. A. r.
Mrs. Cooke is the present vice presi-
&c he Nd
the impression seems to be general that
her election is scarcely more than a
matter of form. She has been en-
dorsed by 50 many state conventions,
that her unanimous election seems al
most a certainty. She attended the
state convention of the Texas ID. A. r.
in 1921. and was a guest at the meet
ing of the Federated Women's Clubs
of Texas. where she made many warm
friends in both personal and public
capacity. She is regarded as leader
of great force, ability, and patriotism
The Alamo Chapter of the d. A. r
of which Mrs. John NJ. Duncan is reg.
emit, is sending the delegates and alter.
mates to the Washington convention
with instructions to vote for Mrs
Cooke for president general OF the
association. The San Antonio de
Bexar Chapter of the d. A. r. with
Mrs. z. o. Evans as regent does not
follow the plan of sending instructed
delegates, leaving the decision of whom
to vote for to the delegates, after they
have seen the candidates and heard
their speeches.
The Alamo Chapter of the d. A. r
will be represented by Mrs. Harry
LYMAN. honorary regent and honorary
state regent of the association, her
being Mesdames III. NJ
Hall. +. J. Larkin, W. Cresswell
]. NJ. Watson, s. W. Scott, Edward
/. Syers and Misses Lorena Robert
son and Evalyn Sterling. The Sar
Antonio de Bexar Ch~pter will have
as a delegate, Mrs. W. G. Dunn. who
is living in Washington at present
but is a former San Antonian and
keeps her membership in her San An
tonic D. A. r.. The president and
vice presidents OF both chapters. Mrs
John NJ. Duncan and Mrs. Robert NJ
