That tha woman's club Is the moat direct

tha present system where all rades are

Mrs. Richards of Iowa also emphasized
tha necessity of hwtter school housee, com

erally, with actually luxuriant horsa barns
and cattle bams that stand In Right of
tbem today,
The farmer muet eome to realise that
getting money la not the main object In
life and that he ewea much to his wife
and children, she argued. To the district
vlra presidents of eluha she urged "Hound
up your country women." and then made
auggestlons as to hnw this might be ac
complished so as not to offend or repel the
senkltlre women.
Waste Thema to Visit.
Mrs. Hlghee of Minnesota advocated the
establishment of the "visiting habit." Thla
plan brings seveial famllea together at
frequent intervals to spend the day; the
men to discuss stock and farm methods
and the wemen to talk over the things
that Interest them. The telephone, aha
aald. would aerve to make all arrange
ments for providing things to eat. fihe
named the town rest room where farmers'
wives may wait while the men attend to
their business aa one of the best means of
getting hold of the country woman that
la. of getting them 'acquainted, and alee
tha country club or neighborhood club.
Mrs. F. H. Cola of Omaha told af th

the only charge being the general admis
sion paid to the exposition.
Tha afternoon program waa a general
conference of club women. Mra. F. H. Cola
af the Nebraska federation presided. "Tha
Btate'a Aid, the Woman's Club," was the
I subject of a paper by Mrs. Francis Everett
of Illinois. "Good Cltlxenshlp as. Influenced
by Home Training" was presented by Mrs.
Julian Richards of the Iowa federation;
"Play and Playgrounds," by Mra. Ood
dard of the Kansas federation and "Value
of Organlaatlon," fcy Mrs. C. G. Hlgbee of
Minnesota.
fttote Federation Ilenda Heard.
The elub movement In many of lis
phase, waa presented at the afternoon pro
gram, the visiting presidents of state fed-
ei-atiorta belnv the aprakers. Mia. Francis
verett of Illinois discussed the club as
The Btate's Aald."
"We are no longer merely study clubs
becaune our study ha guided and fitted
ns to do otheT things. The hlsiory rf the
olub today 1 reflected In the Individual
club woman," said she.
'Just as any normal woman must give
aid to the child In distress, so the club
gives itself and Its efforts to Improve the
greater needs ef society, 'the federation
of clubs. Is at e.nce the clearing house for
Information und tha center for Inspira
tion. The aim and the and of It all la tha
aalvation of the child and the bettering
of the condition ef tha family."
Than Mrs. Everett took Suaan B. An
thony'! famoua statement: "Men seem by
common consent to have turned over to
women the repairing of the damagu done
to society," and told some of the meth
ods club women are using; in making thsas
repairs, chief of which la the proverbial
ounce of prevention. By a campaJgn of
education they are lnfluenlng legislation
and public sentiment which will sustain
and enforce tt, and their accomplishments
stand among the feremoat achievements
of the century.
Mrs. C. C. liuxbee of the Minnesota fed
eration spoke of the "Value of Organlxa
tlon." "Anne Bradatreet, wife of Gov
ernor Bradstrect, was lite first woman or
ganizer In tbla country," raid Mr. Hlg
bee, who than aha compared Anne Brad
atreet's discouraging experlencea with tha
opportunity of women today, made poa
slblo through the eettrts ths pioneers.
In conclusion she aald:
Weunea, Even tat Peraoa.
"Into Uila experience of sympathetic
relationship women are entering througli
the close organization of the club. Loyalty
and charity grow with underatandlng.
Each member makes her place regardless
of scot or ef social position. She gives
and aha takes. Her own merely peraonal
Interests become merged In those of tha
group. Her selfleh .- Intereata, net her
identity. There Is no cause to fear that
Irdivldualiem will suffer lors. It la aald
that even In prison, no matter horn
mechanical the rules, woman never be
comes merely the convict with a certain
number attached; ahe remains ever the
wtmtn In prison. It gtvee permanence and
Interest to organization that members re
main so distinctly Individual.
, "The beat things in programs are written
between the lines. Gradual awakening to
the greater significance of life; new en
thusiasm for humanity; the dlacovery of
a friend; these were never expressed In
printers Ink. Theae make aubatudy quick
with promlae; they create a vast system
of Intereata and enthusiasms, ef inspira
tion and ' protection. These constitute the
values ef organlaatlen."
Mrs. Julian Riehards ef the Iowa federa
tion talked of "The Influence of Home
Life Upon Good Citizenship." She esti
mated that M per cent ef the club women
today are Interested in the home and tho
child and pointed out the neceaalty ef In
stilling In the child tha principals that will
make him respectful ef authority, of the
rlghU and privileges ef ethers and of hla
Don't let your stock run down when

Mrs. C. C. Ooddard of the Kansas
federstlnn gave a paper on "Play and
Playgrounds, " prepsred for a Kansas
meeting and while It waa not general In
Its scope, afforded auggestlons that might
profitably be accepted by other states,
which have not made provision for direct
ing the compensating home and other
envlrommenta In life. ,An Informal dis
cussion followed.
Women's flab Plater tains Visitors.
Ijtst evening the visiting women w-ere
entertained at a reception In the rooms of
the Omaha Woman' chin In the First Con
gregational church. There. throtiRh the
Ingenuity of the women, the Corn exposi
tion was cleverly suggested in the dec
oration and other details of the function.
Corn In the shock and the ear afforded the
decoration, and It was admirably managed.
Mrs. Edward Johnson, president of the
club, with Mrs. F. II. Cole of the Ne
braska fedetstlon and the four visiting
stale federation presidents formed the re
ceiving line and assisting through the
rooms were the local club presidents and
officers, st the refreshment table or as
sisting In better acquaintance among the
out-of-town guests. The vlstlng members
o fthe state federation's executive commit
tee were also honor guests.
This afternoen at 1 o'clock, the vlstlng
women will be honor guests at a lunoheon
to be served at the Grand hotel at Council
Bluffs, the Council Bluffs club women

"I'd like to get your recipe for preserv
ing those apples," suggested a farmer to
Joseph Abel, a government officer who is
connected with the force in charge of the
exhibit.
"Thoee are Just imitations made of wax,"
replied Mr. Abel.
"Oh, j-ou wise guys can't fool me," re
turned the farmer, leaving In disgust. "1
guess I've seen more apples than you ever
heard of, I raise 'em on my farm."
There are plums with the natural "bloom"
on them and peaches with nice fuzzy fuzz,
that leek good to eat, but in their hearts
they ire just paraflne frauds.
Each of the beauty fruits or terrific
bugs represents many and many a day of
slow painstaking work by skilled hands.
Every microscopic spot and coloration of
the original fruit Is reproduced on the

reproduction of enlarged specimens of the

the operator to work hour after hour with
