NO F0LITICS IN CM HA WOMAN'S ClUo All Trraent Officers I.llail.lr for econil Term anil Cuml llrrnrd Mnkes Their He-elecllou Ilrslrnble. Although the annual elertl n of efTlfe'-s Is scheduled for Monday uftemoo i's me t Ing of the Omaha Woman's club, there has been practically no political gos-iip afloat. The club has Just completed one of the most profitable years In Its hlstrry and with all tho officer eligible for re-elect Ion, the member have been too busy and have woiked too harmoniously to ylvn iniicli thought to the election. Everyone seems to take It for granted that the present of ficers will be elected to a second term and everyone seems anxious that they should be. But this harmonious condition of affairs must not be mistaken for lethargy nor the calm that pieced, s a storm. The Omaha Woman's club has never been on a better wo:ktt: luisla than now, nor has there ever been a time when the ilepirtm ms were doing more serious or better work. Elected last spring, Mrs. A. B. Burners, the club's president, has guided the organ ization from ono of the most doubtful periods In its history to lis present glow ing, prosperous condition, und It seems the unanimous opinion of tho members that another year under her administration will go far toward restoring the club to its former place as the largest of tiie state. Mrs. Draper Smith, us first vice presi dent and leader of the social science de part mint, has headed one of the most con spicuous branches of the club's activity. I'lnler her le.ideishlp the women have had a aul'styntiul part in promoting tho work of the jVvcnile court nnd detenti ui home, the public playground and various other social and civic movements. The other of ficers, Mrs. A. L. Sheets, second vice pn sl dent; Mrs. D. M. Cameron, recording secre tary; Mrs. W. II. Hancock, corresponding secretary; Mrs. J. W.' Akin, treasurer, and Mrs. C. H. Chlsam, assistant treasurer, have had a part In the year's achievement. Mr. I'eoliiiK nt OsLhIoonb. Among the prominent speakers on the program of the biennial of the Iowa Fed eration to be held ut Oskaloosa in May is Mrs. Alice Dynes Feullng, dean of the domestic economy department of Bradley institute, Peoria, 111., an institution af filiated with Chicago university. Besides receiving the Bachelor of Scence degree at Chicago university Mrs. Feullng lias made nn extensive study of home economics in England, Germany, France, Switzerland and the Netherlands. While at the head of tho domestic economy department of the State college at Brookings, S. D., she co-operated with the experimental station at Washing ton, helping to find the best methods of preparation of native food products. Mrs. Feullng was the first person to success fully use macaroni wheat flour In muklng bread and this distinction won her the unusual recognition from the experimental station of a special bulletin outlining the importance of her work to the study of dietetics. In addition to her teaching she has covered quite a lecture field and the Iowa biennial program commute I for tunate In securing her. Sixteen of the twenty-one federated clubs of the Fourth district of the Nebraska Federation were represented at the sec ond annual district convention held at Da vid City Monday and Tuesday of last week. Several of the unfederuted organization of tho district were also pregent, making the meeting one of the largest and most Interesting, held this year.

Letton of Lincoln, state recording secretary, gave a practical talk on "Business Methods in Club Work." Mrs. W. A. Harrison, chairman of the civics and forestry committee, was also present.
