It is certainly worth while to try to have an International Congress of Women next year along the lines of the historic one organized at the other Chicago Exposition. It was a delight to have the Transcript bring me your picture and the interview last Saturday night. Thank you for giving that interview because you have hosts of friends who do not know you personally, as I am privileged to do, but who greatly appreciate this splendid service to which your life has been devoted. Affectionately yours, Charolette Barrett Ware Miss Alice Stone Blackwell, 3 Monadnock Street, Uphams Corner Station, Dorchester, Massachusetts.
