Mrs. Myers gave a brief but thor ough resume of the business conduct ed and of the elaborate entertainment afforded the delegates in all of which the outstanding theme was the cry for peace. Presidents of each chapter were urged to pool interests with other or ganizations to reach that goal for which the nations are now striving.
