FORECAST OF ACTIVITIES
OF THE O’NEILL WOMAN’S

The O’Neill Woman’s Club enters
upon the fifth year of its existence and
activities with a bright outlook, and
with much anticipation. The program
committees have done their work well,
the year-book is in the hands of the
printer, and, from glimpses into the
pages of tihe proof sheets, it promises
to be one of the most interesting, en
tertaining, as well as the most profit
able of all the club programs. The
membership roll shows 113 members
in good standing, witfh a fine repre
sentation in each department.
All general meetings, held on the
4th Wednesday of each month, will
follow the same outline, as follows:
Business—Current Topics—and Parli
menHary Drill. The first general
meeting will be held on Wednesday
afternoon, September 24th, and it is
the wish of the President that there
be a full attendance.
In the Department of Household
Economics, Mrs. C. M. Daly, chair
man, a delightful program has been

of programs will be given, consisting
of the study of the development of dif
ferent musical forms, i. e. The Waltz,
Gavotte, March, Serenade, Cradle
Song, Nocturne, Minuet, etc. Musical
current events wild be a feature of
each meeting.
It will be plainly seen that no one
can afford tto miss even one of these
programs, so the President, Mrs. Gil
ligan, asks that each member consti
tute herself a committee of one to
bring at least one name for member
ship to the first meeting. We want
the women of O’Neill to feel that this
