- While there are plenty of stay-at-homes
who can recall summers that have been a
great deal less Interesting than this one
has been. It Is comforting Just the same
to note that "have returned" Is beginning
to be substituted In the society chronicle
for the "have gone" that has prevailed
since the early summer. People are be
ginning to corns back In numbers that
promise soon to restore society to Its nor
mal activity.' And with the return of so
ciety will come the return of the clique,
but of course everyone expects that, for
when one's preferred friends are scattered
broadcast, one has to be sociable with
thef people, In self-defense. That Is
really the most lasting benefit of the sum
mer; people really get acquainted with
each otiier while the other members of
their set are away and then have some
thing to fall back upon later In the sea
son. The week of bad weather seems to have
quite put society In the notion of Indoor
affairs, In fact any other sort would have
been Impossible, but the rain ,and storm
made everything seem cosy last week and
Inspired ever ao many luncheons and little
card parties for the visiting girls that were
altogether enjoyable and promise to launch
the soason for Indoor entertainment several
weeks earlier than usual. While there was
by no means a rush of entertainment,
practically . everything was In the homes
which loaned an air of formality that does
not usually attend the gatherings of the
late summer. In the main, the visiting
girls have been the occasion of tilings,
though the wedding of Miss Shaver and
Mr. Hoy Jones at The Bunkers Wednes
day afternoon, waa the conspicuous fea
ture of the week.
'' The opening of. the theaters premises to
be a conspicuous feature of the week and
while there will not be the theater parties
that were talked a fortnight ago, at least
not all of them, society will bo well rep
resented at both openings.
The early August vlsltora at Hot Springs,
t. D.. are chatting of the devotion of one
ef Omaha's most eleglble bachelors to a
prominent society girl of Bloux City, the
daughter of a well known plate glass dealer.
t wiie not the mere summer resort sort
ef devotion, but the serious kind of atten
tion I that Justifies suspicion. She has been
out several seasons and he might have been
In society for several years past had he not
been more Inclined to business than social
dutlifl. 'His name has long been Identified
with the Omaha Street Railway company.
: The stormy weather of the last week had
a very perceptible effect upon affairs at
the Country, club, and while there were
Severn! smart gatherings there, chiefly
luncheons, there were as any more that
mere called off or postponed and things
wero comparatively quiet, a gloom perva
ding the place, that not even the grate Are,
the card table or the efforts "of the musical
contingent could dispel. Practically every
thing waa indoors and there were many of
the devotees who did not go out at all last
Week. Another such week and society
would bo quite ready to open Its drawing
rooms. Last evening there were few din
ners and all of those were small. The Hat

meeting of the Nebraska Federation of
Women's Clubs, October 7 and . The an
nual meeting Is considered one of the chief
factors In arousing ,n.nd extending an in
terest In llbiary affairs and the association
has Invited all librarians nf the state and
members of the bosrds of trustees and
others engaged In educational work to at
tend the Fremont meeting and Join the as
sociation. The program committee hns
planned to present a very attractive and
Instructive program which will be of great
value to all Interested In the work of
library extension. Mr. J. Cotton Dana,
librarian of the publlo library of Newark,
N. J., will address the meeting In Joint ses
sion with the Federation the evening of

made to Increase the membership and funds
of the association and the officers believe
that If every person In the state engaged
In library work would constitute herself a
committee to secure more members and
thereby increase the fund, that the work
would receive great, impetus. The fees are
needed for the association expenses In
curred during the year and all members
and those desiring to become members are

A. O'Brien, public library, Omaha.
Three Omaha women have recently re
turned frm the second meeting of the
Woman's auxiliary to the International
Typographical union, held In Washington
August 12, 13 and 14. Mrs. Frank A. Ken
nedy of 2326 South Eighteenth street being
the president of the organization. Mrs. H.
Matthes of Omaha was also present as
Chaplain, and Mrs. Charles Mathews rep
resented the local auxiliary as delegate.
The auxiliary waa organized a year ago
at Cincinnati, Mrs. Kennedy then being
elected president and elected for a second
term at the recent meeting. Mrs. Matthea
declined to serve a second term as chap
lain. The organisation now Includes twenty-
one branches and Is composed exclusively
of the wives, mothers or sisters of print
ers, thejr. object being to promote the In
terests of the Typographical union. To
this end much substantial work was re
ported accomplished at the Washington
meeting, the convention deciding that the
special effort this year should be agitation
for union-made and union-labeled goods.
and for the Increase In the number and
slso of the auxiliaries. Another decision
that will mean much to the women was the
Inauguration of a general admission card
upon the presentation of which auxiliary
members will be admitted to the meetings
of other auxiliaries any place In the United
States or Canada. Among other matters
that came up for discussion was the estab
lishment of an annex to the Printers' home
at Colorado Springs, where women might
live. It was decided that the organization
la still too young for such an extensive un
dertaking and the matter was laid over
until next year. Only once was the perfect
harmony of the meeting threatened, and
then not seriously, In the application for
membership In the International of the
Brooklyn NV T.) federation of wives of
the various labor organizations of that city.
While .the federation Includes many print
era' wives. It 1 not composed of them ex
clusively, and this fact, in the opinion of
the executive, barred them rom member
ship. The Insistence of the president of the
federation to be admitted to the meeting
caused some Uttle difference of opinion,
some feeling that granting her that privil
ege, would be. but courteous, but this she
was denied on the ground that none but
officers and delegates to the convention
could be admitted and no exception was
considered advisable In the opinion of the
majority. The next meeting will be held
at St. Louis In conjunction with that of
the International Typogrsphlcal union.
The following officers were elected to serve
during the coming year: President, Mrs.
F. A. Kennedy, Omaha, Neb.; secretary
treasurer, Mrs. Ed D. Donnell, Cincinnati,
O. ; first vice president, Laura B. Gordon,
Washington, D. C; second vice president,
Mrs. Charles McKee, Indianapolis, Ind.;
third vice president, Mrs. Edward Bu
chanan, Nashville, Tenn.; fourth vice pres
ident, Mrs. C. C. Houston, Atlanta. Ga.;
chaplain, Mrs. Cora Wandby, Rochester,
N. Y.; guide, Mrs. Lily Martin, St. Joseph,
Mo.
The right of suffrage has been extended
In the Isle of Msn to unmarried women

The September meeting of the Woman's
Christian Temperance association will be
held Tuesday, September 1, at 10 o'clock.
In the parlor of the Young Men's Christian
association.
Unbeknown to the many club women of
the city, who would have delighted In
meeting her, Mrs. Mary Lockwood of
Washington, D. C, chairman of the re
organization committee of the General Fed
eration, and one of the best known workers
In the Interest of women at the national
capital, was a guest In the vicinity of
Omaha for several weeks recently, having
visited Mrs. Guy Barton, her niece, at
Walnut Lodge, near Gllmore, and only
returned tn her home last week. Follow
ing the Milwaukee biennial, Mrs. Lockwood
served as chairman of the committee ap
pointed to secure a new charter for the
General Federation, and was among the
most conspicuous women on the platform
of the Ixs Angeles meeting. Though well
past the meridian of life, Mrs. Lockwood
retains a remarkable activity and Interest
In alt affairs of women, and because of
her ability and experience Is constantly In
demand by women's organisations all over
the country, to bring their Interests before
congress. When It was learned late last
week thst she wss here, scattered as the
club women are there was a desire to en
tertain her, but It was then too late, as
he left the city before they could com
municate with her.
Owing to the scattering of the women
the roster of the standing committee of the
Iowa Federation of Women's Clubs has
not yet been Issued. It Is expected, how
over, that It will be completed within the
coming week, when It wll! bo announced.

BOYD THEATER NEARLY READY
Painters Nearly Throagh with Work
ob Interior the Hand
some House.
Manager Burgees la Just now waiting
with eager anticipation for the coming of
the opening night of his season, which
Is to begin next Thursday with "The Prince
of Pllcen." The painters and other work
men who have been engaged for the last
two weeks at the theater are nearly
through, and the Interior of the house Is
as fresh and bright aa though It was en
tirely new.' The chief change has been
made In the lobby, where, as explained In
The Bee on Sunday, .the color plan has
been reversed, the woodwork being made
dark and the walls and ceilings light.
The plan for reserving seats adopted two
year ago will again prevail at the Boyd,
and Its benefit Is already being enjoyed by
the regular patrons of the house, many of
whom are taking advantage of the list of
bookings announced by Mr.' Burgess on
his return from New York to make reser
vations for the season. The fact that the
big attractions will be In Omaha longer
than one-night stands Is a great advantage
In this regard, and will be found to work
well for all during the season. "The
Prince of Pllaen" company, which opens
the season here, Is singing In Chicago this
week, and . Is . attracting much attention
there.
