Society has come bark from the World a
ftilr that is last week s pilgrims have
footsore nnd weary, and In most cass with
a bad cold to boot. And no wonder, con
sidering what they went through with. The
exposition Is In Itself enough to maim an
ordinary nblc-hodled person who might un
dertake to "do'' it In a week, but when It
comes to adding the Pike to this and one
certnlnly gels the Impression from hearing
them talk that tb"y saw a good deal of the
I'lkc well, that I;; too much for even the
endurance of society. There .have been an
unusual number of rongenlals there during
the rnst fortnight, and some who ore not
congcnlil. too, even if they do belong to
the fashionable set. and some altogther
Interesting and highly entertaining stories
are being told of what happened. But, of
course, people are expected to have a gay
time nt an exposition. Among those who
rhnnecd to meet there were Mr. and Mrs.
John L. Webster and Miss Webster, Mrs.
A. J. Benton. Mine Oreutt nnd Miss Jane
Oretitt. Mr. and Mrs. Frank Kennedy, Mr.

Shane, Misses Mary and Lurlle Hayden,
Mr. Tom McShane, Mr. Oerome Mngne and
Mr. Rider, Mr. Oallord Martin, Major and
Mrs. Cecil. Captain Wilcox and Lle-itonant
Clarke of Fort Crook.
A brilliant function that closed the week
was the reception given Saturday after
noon between 4 and C o'clock by Mrs. John
A. McShane at her residence, 305 Dodge
street, at which she introduced her daugh
ter, Miss Mary Lee McShane, to about Son
guests. It had been a week of flowers, but
several hundred dozen, mostly chrysanthe
mums nnd American Beauty roses, all the
gifts of frle"nds, were arranged through the
large rooms. Mrs. McPhnne, with her
duughter, stood before a bank of American
Beauty rones that rearhd tn the celling of
the reception room. The hostess wore a
handsome gown of light hlue chiffon taf
feta, with trirnmlrrs of hlue chiffon velvet
and lace, and Miss McShane was gowned
in pink chiffon cloth, with transparent yoke
and trimmings of pink renaipsanc lace.
Her bouquet was n dainty and most artis
tic bit of wp'k, The hunch was composed
of lilies of tho valley and English violets,
from which dropped a shower of pale helio
trope illusion, suspending smaller clusters
cf lilies and violets.
The windows were darkened and the
house lighted by the shaded chandeliers.
The windows of tho reception hall were
hung with Tnse-rolored silk draped over
with lace and ferns banked the corners. In
addition to tho bower of American Beauty
roses In the reception room, there were
huge branches of Meteor and La Franca
rosea, while In the library beyond hugu
bunches of yellow and white chrysanthe
mums literally hp.nked the mantle nnd the
window before which the punch table was
placed, and filled huge vases arranged
about the bookcases. Here presiding alter

The dining room was In white and green,

bunches upon the sideboard and cabinets
nnd massed In the south end of tho room.
Tho table, covered with cluny lace, had
for Its centerpiece a large basket of chrys
nnthemum daisies, the handle tied with
a largo green Illusion bow. At the four
corners were white candles In silver hold

The enthusiasm engendered by the horse
Bhow did not all rass with it by any
means, and there Is more interest in horses,
riding and driving right now than ever
before In the city. One needs but to go
to the boulevard these fine autumn days
to be convinced of it, particularly In the
morning, when the horseback riders art

WOMAN IN CLUB AND CHARITY
The following communication has been
issued by the press committee of the Gen
eral Federation of Women's clubs:
One of the sunjerts taken under consid
eration by the board of directors of the
General rederation at Its recent meeting
in M. Louis was the advisability of estab
lishing a bureau of Information, which
would serve as headquarters for General
federation activities, from which all mat
ters of Information should be sent out, and
by which ail matters of interest to club
women should be collected, catalogued nnd
mea. With this end In view a committee
was appointed to formulate plans and to
circulate such plana, when completed,
among the State Federation presidents and
in the columns of the various club periodi
cals throughout the country, at the same
time asking the dosirabilliy of carrying
such plans Into execution.
The committee at this time begs to sub
mit a few of the reasons for the considera
tion of this matter and a plHti, which is
fimewhat crude as yot, by which the work
of such a bureau might prove of benellt
to club women and to club work.
The General Federation, with Its lurge
membership, needs more compact organ
isation and deserves the dignity of a home
otllce. The efficiency and the Influence of
tho organization would be Increased ten
fold if north, south, east and west could
be kept in touch through a general bureau
with the work of which eaci. is doing. Tne
woman in a small club In New Hampshire
who may wlfh to do some necestary work
In her own town feels a natural hesitancy
In addressing the president of the General
Fedeiatlon, whose time and thought are
engrossed in the great questions with which
the parent organization has to deal. She
would, however, feel a perfect freedom in
addressing a bureau whose sole reason for
existing was to give her and every

Mrs. Ellis Bierbower, who returned the
early part of the week from an extended
European Jour, left Wednesday for St.
Louis to visit the fair.
Mr. and Mrs. Charles Boss arrived Tues

Mrs. I. B. Louneker of the Madison
was hostess Thursday afternoon of a
unique entertainment which was largely
attended. A trip to Europe constituted the
entertainment of the afternoon and proved
altogether enjoyable and quite as .confusing
as a real Journey. The principal trans
continental railroads were represented by
strong corda that crossed and recrossed or
were attached to some convenient place
called Junctions, each being given the name
of some city enroute, but instead of the
name being written out, tho place was
marked with symbols that, rightly Inter
preted, represented the name. Each pas
senger was given a ticket, upon which she
wrote her interpretation of the various
connections. At a given signal the pns
sengers started and a merry hour followed,
during which a few reached their Journey's
end, and several were wrecked entirely. An
elaborate luncheon followed.

elsewhere along the particular line In which
which sha wan interested, and the ways and
means Dy wnicn success was attained.
Then, too, the president of an organiza
tion which is already recognized as one
of the great moral nnd educational forces
in the modern world must be free to de
vote her best mental energy to the further
ance of the work for which the organiza
tion exists. This she cannot do if she Is
forced to act as Information headquarters
and give her strength to matters of minor
detail, particularly if, as now, she has no
source from which to gain information
without an almost endless amount of pre
liminary correspondence.
When established, this bureau should aim
to be in every sense true to Its name a
bureau of Information. No matter should
be too small to merit attention. The dutle
of the office should be many and varied
and the bureau would naturally take upon
Itself the work of the clerk of the Federa
tion, the bureau of information, the record
tiled, the reciprocity bureau, and would
also become tho source of general assist
ance to all clubs and federations. The his
tory, the work, the names of past and
present officers, the dates of meeting, the
subjects of discussion or eacn state federa
tion and each federated club, as well as
lists of the various committees of club and
state Bhould be a part of the ready data
in tne office. A record, as tar as possioie,
should also be kept or unrederated clubs
particularly of those federated in Siate ttd
erations and not in the General Federa
tion.
A collection of year books, all pamphlets
Issued by federations or clubs, club Jour
nals, prefs clippings, all reports of state
and General Federation meetings including
board meetings of tho General f ederation
should be kept full and complete. Out
lines for study should be collected and sent
out as requested, successful and satisfac
tory speakers on all subjects recorded, and
later, outlines and bibliographies prepared
by experts snouiu De a pari oi me circular
Inir work of the bureau. The national conv
mittee work should thus Ua aided and
strengthened. There are countless ways
by which, without loss of prestige or dig
nity, the president, secretary anci cnairmun
alike could have their work lightened by
such a bureau.
Comparatively few or the many tnousana
women who belong to the General Federa-
i nti am ever nrivi earea to attend a nienniai
nnd come in touch with the work that is
carried on by tne various committees, ine
srro.ti maiiiritv of our club women have
tio conception of the magnitude of this
work. Even tnougn mey may aesire io
know more of it, it Is extremely difficult
for them to get the information. One
urnmnn lrvflteo in an ooacure corner ot
a small state can scaroely be expected to
keep herself informed concerning even the
names and addresses of the General Feder
ation officers and the chairmen of the dif
ferent committees. She may Indeed find
It impossible to obtain even the scanty In
formation by addressing her own state
president. But, once the bureau is estao
lished, and she may seek and receive the
help she needs on all matters by simply
taxing her memory with one address, since
the chairman of the bureau, like the at
tendant in a large library, must know
where to obtain the desired information,
even though It be outside of the data of
thff theCeGeneral Federation Is to have the
co-operation of the club women or tne
country, it Is obvious that some fuch means
must be employed to keep thrm in touch
with the work, and some person or peirons
who Bhull give undivided attention to this
important feature or teaerauun i-i"
