The Invitation of the Hastings Woman's
club and the Commercial club of Hastings
were accepted and the annuil convention
of the federation will be held st Hastings
next October. Omaha was the only other
city to invite the convention, the Omaha
Woman's club extending the Invitation.
Th representatives of the local clubs were
much chagrined at the silence of the Omnha
Commercial club. When It was decided to
Invite the convention to Omaha the ciuo
women uslted the Commercial club to nec
ond their Invitation. Officers of the club
dSHtiml the women that something would
be done and that the invitation would' be
telegraphed to the executive meeting Tues
day. The telegram failed to materialii",
however.
A discussion of two Iglslative measured,
an amendment to the present compulsory
education law nnd another to the child
labor law, was a feature of the meeting.
The measures "were presented by Mrn.
Draper Smith of Omaha, chairman of the
state industrial committee, and are the
same endorsed by the State federation at
Kearney to be presented to the next leg
islature. The amendment to the education
law provides that children not regularly
, and lawfully employed shall attend school
j the entire school year Inxtead of twenty
weens, and until years of age Instead
of 15 years, the present provision. Also
that a child may bw excused from school
at 14 to enter regular nnd lawful occupa-
tlon, provided ho present to the employer
a certificate from the superintendent of
schools as to his age and attendance at
school and that when he ceases to be em
ployed ho shall at once return bis certifi
cate to the superintendent, thus enabling
the school authorities to prevent truancy.
The child labor provision requires that be
fore beginning to work In any manufactur
ing or commercial establishment a child
shull have completed the first five grades
of toe public schools; tnat no child under
IS years shall work after 7 o'clock In the
evening nor longer than eight hours a day
it forty-eight hours a week. District vice
presidents will be furnished copies of these
inf.imros and all clubs of the slate will
be Informed regarding them.
The standing committees were only par
tially Jlllc:). but the.ic appointments cannot
be confirmed until accepted. A resolution
was pass.-.l asking that Superintendent
Hayward of the Boys' Industrial school at
Kearney bt retained In his present posi
tion. Mrs. Edftard Johnson of Omaha was
appointed vice president of the second dls-
inci io eucceea Mm. jj. L. Johnson of
Dundee, resigned.
Considerable importance attaches to an
action providing that the tjepenses of the
superintendent or her substitute be tald
to attend the district meetings. Every ef
fort has lieen made to strengthen the dis
trict organisation and the annual illvf.t..
meeting, and the presence of the state
president has been counted necessary. As
mere are six olstrlcts this would email
considerable expense to the nreslrin. .

Douglas Members' Select Heats.
Representatives Lee, Barnes and Tucker
of Douglas county called at the offlce of
Secretary of State Galusha this afternoon
and selected their seats for the coming ses
sion. The Douglas' delegation will be lo
cated directly in front of the speuker In
the second row of seats across the aisle
from where the members were located dur
ing the last session. While here the repre
sentatives visited the representative hall
snd then met with the Board of Public
Lands and Buildings and gave their consent
to having the secretary of state paper the
room. This work will not lie done unless
a majority of the members of the legislature
agree to it. Inasmuch as the secretary of
state has no right to make the expenditure
previous to the appropriation by the legis
lature. The three Douglas members expressed
themselves as standing squarely upon, the
platform of the state convention, but none
of them would say who his preference Is for
speaker of the house. "Douglas county,"
said Mr. Lee, "now has two candidates,
though the delegation may later agree upon
one man and present his name to the cau
cus." McMnlleu Out for Speaker.

asmuch as the Lancaster delegation cannot
agree upon one of Its members for speaker
and neither can the Douglas delegation. Mr.
McMullen feels that he hab a good chance
to be the next speaker. A number of mem
bers, he said, have already written to him
assuring him of their support.
"I look for the next legislature to carry
out the platform of the republican party,"
said Mr. McMullen, "but I believe it Is not
going to tie easy sailing right straight
through. The platform pledges the legis
lature to many very Important measures
and the members will have their hands full

herited the weakneb from me.
"Now, I place i teaspoonsful of Grape
Nuts in a dish, then set It in the oven.
When good and hot I eit it with cream.
This, with some other food, gives me a
nice, hot breakfast. Fur the children wc
give each one 3 teaspoonf jls, with warm
milk, which softens it and they like it better.
