As It Is Impossible for any one to be sufficiently familiar with the women of the state to select Just those who are most capable of Judging such work whether It be for exhi bition or reciprocity purposes, many of the most able wmion have been reluctant to submit their efforts to the criticism of those whom they considered Inconsistent and. when the present exhibit work was called for the same reeling was encoun tered. It Is well known that while some women sre successful agitators others are usually (he successful educators and the women who are strongest In the club extension or philanthropy rarely are the leaders of the more esthetic side of club work and there wa naturally a lelre to know the per aonnel of the sifting committee. Now that thtft point has been settled there Is littl'; doubt that the women will take pride In contributing" the best that the state can produce. The leaders of the various departments and the chairman of the library and edu cational committees of the Omaha Woman' club have been appointed the committee to encourage and collect the contributions of the club to the educational exhibit at the Bt. Louis exposition. The committee in eludes fifteen members besides Its chair mar, Mrs. Cole, president of the club, and while It I perhaps large it embraces' all of the Interest of the club In the women chosen by the club to lead those Interests. The committee will hold Its first meeting today at the public library, where it meet with Mr. Barbour of the Btate university. superintendent of the educational exhibit Alice Btone Blackwel', writing to the Woman's Journal, says: "After our return to New Tork It was my pleasant duty, as recording secretary, to Join with Mrs. Catt in giving a formal receipt to Dr. Mary H. Hussey for her mother' bequest of 110,000 to the National American Woman Suffrage association It was dune at Mrs. Catt's office. In Park Row building, before Miss Steele, a woman commissioner of deeds for New Jersey. In strong and most amiable contract to some heirs who try to break wills leaving money to equal rights, Dr. Hussey and her brother voluntarily paid, out of their own pockets, the inheritance tax (amounting to nearly trfln) upon their mother' bequest Innler that her wish to give a clear tlO.Ono to the Suffrage asso ciation might be fulfU'ed." v Here Is an invitation that has been ex tended to the Colorado Federation of Women's clubs by the mayor of Fort Col lins, Colo., on behalf of the city council and citisens of that place: Knowing the beneficial influences your organisation has on our state and Its In stitutions, I can assure you our people herj are Interested In your success. Our local clubs have already tuught us the benefits that are derived from auch or ganisations. They have Identified them selves with numerous public Interests to our educational, moral and social advan tage. In my humble opinion, the home Is materially benefited by the enlightening Influence of their Intellectual union. Their I ower for good cannot but be enhanced y affllllHtlon with the various clubs throughout the suite and we proy that your meeting in Colorado Springs may be all that earnest workers and honest hearts can desire. As an endorsement of your splendid work, our people desire -that you grant us the opportunity of welcoming you to our city. . , .

"In the selflsn enjoyment of our opulent civilization," he said, "we forget our mis sion. the object for which God ha raised us up In the world. I cannot see how any one realizing our advancement can fall to realize that it Is God's hand which Is lead- . lng us In development. Our Increased pos sihllltles bring increased responsibilities Why is Qod exalting u? Why Is our action the most weighty In the councils of Eu rope? Why do we control the commerce of the wor'.d? Why do these thousands of strange people come to us? and why do we enjoy thia great Internal prosperity? God has put us to be a light to the nations; to guide the nations. We a-e to exalt his name and to show the nations what God can do. Let us take these blessings de voutly from the hand of Qod and live to their ennoblement, enrlchme.it and their propagation, and make all the world around us more blessed through what we have re ceived."
