In the notice of the Annual Meeting given on the cover page, it will be observed that one of the sessions is to be given as usual to the Woman's Department. A cordial invitation is extended to all, and we especially hope that all Women's State Unions will be represented both by State officers and auxiliaries. On the programme there will be speakers representing the Unions, missionaries from the field, and speakers of note.

"How to interest the uninterested," is the missionary puzzle of the times. Will it not help to solve it if every friend who comes to this Annual Meeting at Concord, New Hampshire, October 25-27, will try to bring one who is not interested in missions?
