Excerpt from A Study for the North Carolina Federation of Womens' Clubs, 1918-19, Vol. 1: A Series of Outlines Studies of the Historical Background and the Literature of the Great War This series of outline programs on the principal countries engaged in the Great War has been prepared for the use of women's clubs and reading circles. It has been adopted as the official study program of the North Carolina Federation of Women's Clubs, with the approval of the president, Mrs. Clarence Johnson, and of Mrs. Hugh Murrill, the chairman of the Department of Literature. The purpose of the outline is to provide a systematic program for the study of the Great War from an historical and literary point of view. The outline is arranged for sixteen meetings in order to conform to the calendar of the majority of the clubs which meet fortnightly during the eight winter months. If extra meetings for business or sociability are desired, they may be inserted at convenient times. If more programs are needed, the important subjects may be treated more intensively, and some special topics taken up in greater detail. Contemporary France or Russia, for instance, might well be made the subject of three or more meetings. In fact the difficulty of dealing with such a general subject has been to condense it into the required limits, and to make selection from the vast amount of literary material now available. If the manner of treatment seems somewhat sketchy and incomplete it is because many of the clubs have previously made a detailed study of several of the European countries, and because we think something may now be gained by a bird's eye look at these great nations in relation to the present crisis in the history of the world. The program for each meeting is arranged under three headings which are intended to be used as the topics for papers or essays, or for talks or informal discussions.
