#001 The Worlds Congress Auxiliary Scrapbook, p. 0626
ORGANIZATION.
I. A local membership, consisting of persons resident in or near Chicago,
and embracing the members of the several General and Special Committees
of the Auxiliary in charge of the various Departments, Divisions, Chapters,
and Sections in which Congresses are to be held.
II. Advisory Councils of such Departments, Divisions, Chapters, and
Sections, consisting of persons eminent in the work thereof, and non-resident
of Chicago, who are especially invited to co-operate with the appropriate local
Committees, and who constitute the non-resident branches of such Committees.
The Advisory Councils are expected to aid the local Committees by corre-
spondence freely, and by personal conference as opportunity may offer.
III. General Honorary and Corresponding Members of the Auxiliary, con-
sisting of eminent persons not specially assigned to co-operate with a particu-
lar local Committee.
IV. The Woman's Branch of the World's Congress Auxiliary, consisting
of Committees of Women corresponding to the Committees of Men on all
subjects appropriate for the co-operation of women. These Committees of
Women are composed of members resident in or near Chicago, and are
assisted in their work by Advisory Councils of eminent women corresponding
to the Advisory Councils of men. Mixed Committees are not appointed; but
the Committee of Men and the Committee of Women in a given Department,
Division, Chapter, or Section, may meet in conference and act together as
they may find agreeable and expedient. In several instances the Committee
of women and of men after meeting in conference have resolved to hold joi[nt]
meetings on the subject committed to their charge.
The Woman's Branch of the Auxiliary also has a general Honorary an!
Corresponding Membership of distinguished women.
PLACES OF MEETING.
I. The Directory of the World's Columbian Exposition has undertaken
to provide suitable places of meeting for the proposed World's Congresses,
and to that end has taken action with the Art Institute of Chicago for the
erection on the shore of Lake Michigan of a permanent Memorial Art
Palace, with a suitable Auditorium for large conventions, and smaller rooms
for meetings of Divisions, Chapters and Sections of the various Departments,
to be used during the Exposition season for World's Congress purposes, and
after its close to be devoted to the uses of the Art Institute. Should additional
places of meeting be required, they will doubtless be provided, and the Aux-
iliary will offer whatever facilities may be at its command for the accommoda-
tion of those who will participate in the proposed World's Congresses.
