WOmen's Clubs.-On Friday at 2:3O
pm. at the Rockville High School
the chairman of applied education,
Mrs. Ivan G. Weld, met the applied
education chairmen of each individual
&. club belonging to the federation. There
Is a considerable amount of work to
be discussed and every chairman was
urged to be present or supply a sub

mulated for the chairmen to take back
to their respective clubs, and Is con-

active cooperation of the clubs. BY
having every club thoroughly informed
on the work to be done, more can be
accomplished and a closer unity with
the federation established.
