The club opened the season for 1912-13 at a regular meeting, held in the club parlors, on Thursday afternoon, Oct. 3. The program for this meeting was the report of the biennial convention, held at San Francisco in July, a meeting whose delegates represented a federation of 900,000 women. This report was given by Mrs. C. G. Bolte and Dr. Alice Barlow Brown, both having attended the San Francisco meeting. At the close of the report, groups of songs were rendered in a charming manner by Mrs. W. G. Baxter. The social cup of tea was then served under the direction of Mrs. Charles Fuller, chairman of the social committee. The public school teachers of Winnetka and New Trier have been invited as guests to today's meeting, and it is hoped that a large percentage of the membership will be present. The activities at the club house are many and varied. Three different instructors have engaged the use of the club for dancing classes. On Tuesday mornings, beginning last Tuesday, Miss Emma J.
