WOMEN'S CLUBS OF THE STATE
5o Diminution in Intersil Shown by the
Meeting at Ksarnev.
IMPORTANT MATTERS GET ATTENTION
Meetings Will Be Held Annually a
Heretofore aad Some Proposed
Changes In Uwa Will Get
t'alted Support.
The allegation that club Intercut Is on
the decline ran certainly not be made with
reference to the Nebraska Federation of
Women's Clubs. If Its twelfth annual con
vention, held last week at Kearney, Is to
be accepted as Indicative of the state.
While not aa large as the meeting- last year,
this was due to the location of the hostess
town, which was not bo accessible from all
parts of the state as Lincoln, and fw
Nebraska Hub women can afford more than
three or four, days away from home at
thla time of the year, even for the federa
tion meeting,
Th final report of -the credentials com
mittee -showed nUty-nlne clubs represented
by U4 delegates, officers and committee
chairmen. Every program was replete with
interest and every session largely attended.
The program provided under the direction
of Mrs. A. A. Bcolt of Lincoln was one of
the strongest and best arranged that has
ever been given. In that It Included three
speakers recognised as national authorities
on subject that are just now claiming the
attention of club women and the generil

public, besides some of the brightest women
of the state, who have helped to gain for
Nebraska a recognized place among the
state federation.
Appropriate and Interesting-.
An additional Interesting feature was con
tributed by holding the Industrial session,
of which Mr. Florence Kelley of New
Tork, secretary of the National Consumer'
league, waa the principal speaker, at the
State Industrial School for Boys, and the
educational session at the Kearney Normal
school, where Miss Jane Brownlee of
Toledo, O., talked on "Ethical Education
In the Public Schools." lTno Mills of
Estea Park, Colo., was the third national
speaker, and his talk on "Our Friends, the
Trees," afforded one of the most profltablo
as well aa enjoyable sessions of the con
vention. One especially commendable Innovation
was the presentation of club report by the
district vice presidents instead of club
representatives as formerly. The new pltn
not only save much time, but prevents thr
repetition necessary where so many clubs
are following the same line of study or
endeavor, and that, no matter how Inter
esting, becomes -tedious. The one social
function was the musicals given at the
opera house Wednesday evening, although
there wa no lack of opportunity for socia
bility before an after sessions.
Aaaoal Convention Remains.
One of the most Important matters that
Mine before the meeting wa an ameml
.iient to the constitution providing for a
lennlal Instead of an annual convention
nd this wa defeated by a vote of 87 to 85.
Just how much the annual meeting Is
valued by the clubs of the smaller com
munities waa demonstrated by the large
Vote to retain It, In spits of the fact that
the majority of the speakers during the
discussion, among them some ot the most
prominent women of the state, argued for
the biennial meeting. The large majority
In the defeat of the proposed change waa
sot only a surprise to many, but served
also to .Illustrate the independence of the
smaller clubs. Much of the argument for
the biennial meeting wa based upon the
supposition that a part of the funds now
used for the - annual program would
be' allowed the various districts for
their annual meeting. although the
amendment carried no auch provision. The
discuHsion plainly Illustrated that tha dis
trict meetings or the district organisations
are still not strong enough to take the
placo of the annual state meeting.
State Pood Control.
A number of resolution were passed
committing the , federation to the support
of several Important matters. Among these
waa a pledge to petition tha next slate
legislature tor the pasaags of a bill that
shall give the state Jurisdiction over all
food products. At the suggestion of the
civil service committee the following reso
lution was pMsed: -
That each' club appoint a visiting com
mittee, not to exceed three members, who
shall , make a atudy of the conditions In
their local and stale charitable institutions
to find wherein they may be bettered, and
that their visits be tlrst for Information
and made-in the utmost spirit of friendli
ness. Second, that conditions be entirely
understood and suggestions for reform
(tune MiHt through individual clubs.
-At the suggestion of ,the art committee
the federation pledged Itself to petition it
representatives In congrf m to support the
measure providing that works of tine ai t
imported into ' this country shall ba free
from duty. ...
t'haaaee In Children's Laws.
The industrial committee suggested two
important amendments to the Nebraska
educational and icbor laws which are to
bo embodied in a bill by the committee and
presented to the next legislature. The first
provides that all children under 11 years
of age not employed shall attend school
during the full school year;. also that no
child under It) shall be allowed to work
who has not completed the first five grade.
Another bill will provide that no boy or
girl under H year shall work more than
eight hour a day, or 41 hour a week, or
after T o'clock p. m. in any manufacturing
or conmif rrtal eetabllshmeot.
Tb last pledge given was to th libiary
commlttee to support the petition to the
legislature to grant $2,000 additional to the
$6,000 given two years ago for the support
of the State Library commission.
Officers Well Chosen.
In its election of new officer the" federa
tion Is to be congratulated. ' Mr. H. L.
Keefe of West Point, the new president, Is
one of the best qualified women of the
state to serve in the position to which she
has been called. In addition to the culture,
the education and the experience so neces
sary to that position, she has rare tact
and a personality that encourages the
most timid woman to forget herself and
give her best to the assembly. Her ability
aa a leader ha been demonstrated dur
ing the last two years In the splendid ac
complishment ot the Third district, of
which she has been vice president.
Mrs. A. O. Thomas of Kearney, first vice
president, 1 another of the bright women
of the state who will be a welcome ad
dition to the executive committee.
Mrs. C. B. Letton of Lincoln was re
turned to the office of recording secretary
and Mrs. C. C. Maryott of Pender elected
corresponding secretary. Mrs. C. 8tcele
of Falrbury, the new treasurer, has long
had an active part in . the club work of
the state and Mr. F. W. Miller of Omaha,
auditor, was a valued member of the
executive committee four years ago, when
she served for-two years a corresponding
secretary. Mrs. W. T. Pag of Syracuse,
for two year president of the Nebraska
Federation, 1 the new General Federation
secretary and especially well fitted for the
office through her former experience.
