The International Scholarship established a. Memorial to Lady

     The pre-Conference tour of the British Isles — visiting 
     
     Loughry College, in Northern Ireland, Wye College, Kent County, 
     
     Denman College, the trip on the Clyde, the Pageant “Daughters of 
     
     Scotland” in the Historic “Assembly Hall,” Edinburgh; a visit to 
     
     a Women’s Institute in Surrey, and the reception at Edinburgh Castle 
     
     for leaders of delegations. 
     
    
   
   
    
     In summing up, I think that all delegates felt that the Con- 
     
     ference provided an opportunity for women of all nations to meet 
     
     one another, discuss their problems and by greater understanding, 
     
     friendship and concern for one another, build roads to a better world. 
     
    
   
   
    
     The Conference demonstrated that ACWW is one big family, 
     
     comprised of groups from all over the world, with the language of 
     
     the heart and home breaking down all rac‘ial barriers and cementing 
     
     friendships. The delegates saw people from many lands, experts in 
     
     their own fields, tell of the work being done in their areas for home 
     
     improvement and community advancement. 
     
    
   
   
    
     Institute members should realize the value of this vast organ- 
     
     ization which links women of so many lands together and their great 
     
     desire and endeavour to make this a better world in which to live, 
     
     through their coming together to work out their many problems, and 
     
     thus “Build Roads to a Better World”.
