Instructions 
The Annual Meeting of the Garden Club of America for the 
year 1920 will be held at the invitation of the North Shore Garden 
Club of Massachusetts, Mrs. S. V. R. Crosby, President, Manchester, 
Massachusetts. 
It is hoped that the ofiScers and delegates will arrive in the late 
afternoon of Monday, June 28th. 
Arrangements will be made by the Hostess Club for the accom- 
modation of officers and delegates. If they have made plans to stop 
with friends they are asked to so indicate on the enclosed cards.* 
It will be helpful if officers and delegates, living within a reasonable 
distance, will bring their own motors. 
Since the distances on the North Shore are great and most of the 
places to be visited are inaccessible by train or trolley, it is suggested 
that non-delegates and members-at-large form motor parties. If 
it is impossible to bring their own motors, motors may be hired. 
To facilitate arrangements it is requested that only hand luggage 
be brought. No evening dresses will be needed. 
At a meeting of the Executive Committee on December 8, 1919, 
the following resolution was passed: 
That owing to the increasing size of the Garden Club of America, 
•// has been found necessary to make some slight changes in the hitherto in- 
formal arrangements for the Annual Meeting. As this is the occasion most 
interesting to Garden Club members, the Executive Committee hopes for 
a large attendance and feels that as many members as possible should attend 
the meeting. 
The business organisation of the meeting allows for two delegates , one of 
whom is the President, or her duly appointed alternate, from' each Club, the 
other a duly appointed delegate from that Club. The members of the Execu- 
tive Committee of the Garden Club of America, and members of the 
*The cards referred to throughout are being mailed, together with a letter, of 
which these Inslrticlions are a copy, to all Presidents of Member Clubs.
