Mrs. Walter S. Brewster, Editor of the Bulletin, gave to the 
meeting a resume of the discussion which took place the preceding 
evening at the meeting of the Council of Presidents, upon the Emily 
D. Renwick Medal Award. Mrs. Brewster stated as her personal 
conviction, the great usefulness and impetus which the donation of 
this Medal would be to the whole Garden Club of America, and 
expressed the appreciation of the officers to Mrs. Charles H. Stout, 
for her generosity. 
The next business before the meeting was the revision of the 
Constitution & By-Laws. According to the Constitution & By-Laws

mittee appointed by that Club.
