[228] Among the many entertainments during the congress were a
reception given by the British delegation; a motor excursion by
invitation of Mrs. McCormick and the American delegates; a dinner
party at Hotel Beau Rivage by Lady Astor for British and American
delegates; a delightful "tea" by the French delegation and a garden
party by M. and Mme. Thuillier-Landry. Excursions were arranged by the
Geneva Committee and visits to the schools, museums, parks and endless
points of attraction in this most interesting city.

Wicksell on its Mandates Commission and Miss Henni Forchhammer on its
White Slave Traffic Commission. These women had already been sent to
the League meetings by Sweden and Denmark as alternate delegates.

grant to woman every right and protection, even to favoritism in the
