Stressing the pioneer work done
by club women in their early or
ganization days, Mrs. Einar Gull
GRANDSON of Albert Lea, state
president spoke on "The Tomor-

meeting. She made special men
ton of the efforts of the Sorosis
club of New York which was
directly responsible for the for

of women's clubs Tracing the
history of the organization down
through the years, she said, "Only
by the fine quality of our pro-
grams and projects can we merit
the role of leaders for after all

analysis, all glory and prestige
but rather it is acceptance of re-
sponsibility and willingness to
serve"
Continuing. Mrs. Gulbrandson
offered this suggestion to her
fellow clubwomen: SIN our To-

ophy of get be set aside for the
God-given tenet of give, for the
seed of a great future will never
terminate in any soul except
through the rendering of UNI
selfish service"
