"While the year that is Jnst clos
ing has pot been an unproductive
one, its work has been along rither
unusual and unexpected lines owing
to an abnormal condition brought
about by our nation's participation
in the war.
"Departments arid kindred activi
ties which usually take first flace
in club life, have, during this year
of 19 17-1 S been relegated to the
background, and it is more than
probable that all clubs for women
will share in the general reconstruc
tion attendant upon the rosimptlon
of normal activities In that "longed
for time, after the war.
"Demands made by the Stata Fed
eration have ben generously met.
The sum of $20 was sent to the Fed
eration Hospital fund.
"In September a reception was
given at the home of Mrs. Z. J. Riggs
for the federation -president, Mrs.
Cljarles Castner. This was an en
thusiastic meeting and Mrs. Castner
won golden opinions both by htr In
spired words and her sweet womanliness.
"The work of the calendar com
mittee was most -fficietly planned,
but there were of necessity many
changes in the proaram during the
year for which the committee was In
no way responsible. In each ae
the substitute program proved finite
as satisfactory as theonj originally
planned.

"The Red Cross autiliarv aided
the allied bazaar of November, by a
fortune telling booth, which netted
$23. after which its independent ex

preferring to give: more time to the
work at headquarters, whero lb de
mand had become pressing.
"The art class has done some Red
Cross work at its regular meetings.
"While the number of standing
committees has been Increased at
the; request of the federation, the
active committees are comparatively
few, but these have been efficfenj.
The scholarship loan, committee has
sent $0 to that fund, this being
the maximum amount askrd for by
the federation committee.
"The art committee has interested
itself in plans for improving tho ap
