Mrs. William D. Hurd, general chairman of the trien- nial committee, is in daily conference with her 40 or more chairmen and has called a meeting of the Diocesan Wom- an’s Auxiliary Tuesday at 2 p.m. at the parish hall of St. Margaret’s Church. At that time each triennial committee chairman will speak for two minutes on the high points of her work for the | gathering. Mrs. Hurd has requested each chair- man to have rehearsals of the work of her group before October 6. Women drivers with their automobiles are needed as volunteers for the motor | corps being organized by the Woman's Ausiliary in conjunction with the Gen- eral Convention committee. The motor corps is being organized for the women by the co-chairmen, Mrs. Charles V. Wheeler and Mrs. Thomas J. Howerton. Women desiring to register their names and cars as volunteers in this motor | corps may do so at the Woman's Auxil- | iary headquarters. Several hundred cars are still needed.
