The thirteenth annual convention of the Indiana Federation of Clubs I which met in Kokomo October 21-23 was the most largely attended ami one of the most interesting and help ful in the history of the federation There were : *72 registered delegates! and enough visitng club members to increase tin' number to more than five hundred. Mrs John E. Moo-e. the president, urged in her annual message that Amerieinuzfltion con tinue the major work of the coming year. It is to the credit of the Indi amt Federation Hitt Inst year the president, Mrs. Moose, asked that Americanization he made the tl’-st work among the clubs of Indiana ami that shortly after the same call came from General Federation headquarters. So Indiana was the first state to line up for Americanization work. Americanization was 'he keynote which sounded throughout the convention and child welfare, education and welfare of women in industry were especially emphasized. | Reports show that forty-five new clubs have been added to the federation the past year and many county I federations have been formed. The endowment fund was sent "over the i top' by the audition ot some money left from the War Victory Commission. but clubs which have not contributed will be expected to do so. The federation endorsed 1 esolutions favoring the purchase of the Sand Duties for a state park and such legislation as will enable the state of Indiana to condemn property for park , purposes; the purchase of the Faun telroy home at New Harmony, the bitthdplace of the first woman’s club in the United States, for a club shrine; the purchase of Turkey Run ■' tot a state park; co-operation in the work of the state tuberculosis so cietv and the Red Cross seal cam paign. The convention in a resolu j tion also called on Governor Good rich to call a special session ot the legislature not later than the first week in January. 1920. for the rati tication of .the federal suffrage amendment.
