154THE FINAL SESSION.
156Friday morning, June 9, at 10 o'clock, the federation convened for the final session of this memorable fourth biennial. Mrs. Dorr and Mrs. Kinney "sharing the chair."
158A number of messages of greeting and good will from absent members were read and applauded.
160Not many different matters were discussed, but the session was the culminating and most interesting one, perhaps, of the convention, arousing quite a little mild excitement among the delegates in several instances.
162Probably the most important action was the election of national officers. The "slate" was "broken" several times, just as it often is by the men! But the ladies finally arranged everything and all of the offices were well filled, to the apparent satisfaction of the body. The new officers are: President, Mrs. Russell R. Dorr, New York; first vice president, Mrs. Kinney, Colorado; second vice president, Mrs. Kelsey, Michigan; section vice presidents, Mmes. McCutcheon, Lawson, Steele and Winger; recording secretary, Mrs. Frey, Syracuse; corresponding secretary, Mrs. Walker, Tennessee; treasurer, Mrs. Elison, Indiana; auditor, Mrs. Robertson, Indiana; librarian, Mrs. Leverette, Illinois.
164A strenuous effort was made to induce the members to approve affiliation with the General Federation of Women's Clubs as a member of that organization, but met with even more "strenuous" opposition, because of reluctance of many members of the N. F. M. C. to have their own federation lose even partially its own individuality by joining the Women's Club. The motion to join the General Federation was lost by a decisive vote.
166The late Theodore Thomas was eloquently eulogized and a memorial resolution passed in honor of his memory as follows:
167"Whereas, We, together with the people of Chicago and the cultured of the entire nation, have suffered an irreparable loss in the death of Mr. Theodore Thomas; and
168"Whereas, This has brought deep distress and affliction upon our honorary president, therefore, be it
169"Resolved, That the National Federation of Musical Clubs, the beloved child of Mrs. Theodore Thomas, extend to her our deepest sympathy and our loving greeting; and further be it
170"Resolved, That the National Federation of Musical Clubs give expression to its adoption of these resolutions by sending a copy of them to Mrs. Thomas."
171The usual resolutions thanking the Hostess Club, the members who prepared and handled the routine and detail of the convention, the Woman's Club of Denver for their auditorium and the musical and daily press for their great courtesy, were unanimously passed.
173The invitation of the Beethoven Club of Memphis, Tenn., to hold the next biennial in that hospitable Southern city was enthusiastically accepted. Numerous sectional meetings and informal discussions helped make this convention notably interesting and helpful. FRANK T. McKNIGHT.
175W. O. FORSYTH on the Moltke.
177W. O. FORSYTH, of Toronto, Canada, was a passenger on the Moltke Thursday of last week. Mr. Forsyth will attend the Wagner festivals in Munich, Vienna, Leipsic, Bayreuth, Weimar and other art centres. Before returning to his home Mr. Forsyth will present his talented pupil, Abbie May Helmer, the young pianist, at a recital in Berlin. Miss Helmer has appeared in several successful recitals in Canada and her teacher is naturally proud of her progress.
