OFFICERS OF THE FEDERATION OF WOMEN’S CLUBS.

The new officers of the General Federation nos Women’s,.Clubs, elected at the convention in Louisville, are ail prominent members of the organization and splendidly equipped for the service to which they have been assigned. Mrs. Ellen Martin Henrotin, re-elected to rhe presidency-, is foremost among the progressive women of the day. Her activity in literary, social, educational and philanthropic life has been of inestimable value to these good causes. Perhaps Mrs. Henrotin’s, greatest faculty is seen

in her wonderful work as an organizer. It is to her capacity and power in this respect that is chiefly due the growth of the great association of which she is the head. Mrs. Alice Ives Breed, of Lynn, Mass., elected vice-president of the federation, has been a prominent woman in the East fbr many years. She was for a long time president of the Woman's Auxiliary of the Young Men’s Christian Temperance Association of Massachusetts, and did admirable work as the chairman of the Lynn branch of the Emergency As-

sociation. She is a thorough club woman. Mrs. C. P. Barnes, of Louisville, the new recording secretary, is one of the original members of the Woman’s Club of that city, and was made president of the Louisville club in 1893 and re-elected in 1894 and again in 1895. Mrs. Philip N. Moore, of St. Louis, the corresponding secretary; Mrs. Frank Trumbull, of Denver, the treasurer, and Mrs. Anna Laws, of Gin ciunati, the auditor, are all able officers and women of broad culture and marked ability.
