I THE BEE: OMAHA, FRIDAY. MAY 26, 1916. MRS. PENNYPACKER TOUGHESJJYE TOPICS Club Women Advised to Co-Operate Directly in Problem of Amer jcanizin; Immigrants. SHOULD JOIN NATIONAL COUNCIL N'ew York, May 25. A step from nationalism to internationalism, to that assistance may be rendered in a world-wide movement by women to "harmonize the nation" after the close of the European war, is recom mended to the General Federation of Women's Cluba by Mr. Fercy V. Tennypacker of Austin, Tex,, in her report, as president, given out today at the thirteenth biennial convention of the federation. "Whlla call ourselves tha Oanaral Titration of Women's Clubs, ret may a wall tha fact that our for eign cluba ara so few and far between that wa ar In reality only national," Mn. Ponnybackar said. "On the conti nent of Europa and In other eoiintriss little la known of the federation because there the great woman's movement la rerreaented by the National Council! of 1 Women all united In the International Council of Women. Should Join National Council. 'Now, there la only one way In which the federation can be repreaented In thll International council and that la by Join ing the already low -eatahllBhsd National Council of Women In the United BUtea. "I will confess that there la a deeper reaaon that makea me so eager to aee thla brought to paee. When the cruel war la, over and peace cornea we ahell find In the Internationa! council an or ganisation that la ready ready for har- moniaing the natlona which now are at war ready for calling back Into wise common counsel women who for ao many yeara were accustomed to work aide by aide. "I pray that the l.WiO.000 women of the federation may have the privilege of alt ting in the council and of helping to bring back Joy and harmony to the women of the world." Americanization of Immigrant. Mra. Tennybacker made other raeonv mendatlona of Importance to the future activities of the federation. One of theae urged that the organisation "go on record hj favoring a continuance of effort on the llnea of Improvement of rural life and the Amerlcanliatlon of the Immigrant.' tin thla connection the president ex plained that her administration, having "early felt the need of proper alliance with the government," had established a, system of co-operation with the De partments of Agricultural, Interior and Labor. "Every club which la willing to aid the gevernment In Americanizing the Immi grant." Mrs. Tennybacker urged, "la Invited to send the name of Ha president and secretary to the president of the fed eration. These names wilt be filed with the commissioner of immigration. When a foreign family lands, destined for a town In which a Woman's club exlata, If the commissioner finds on his list that thla club baa signified Ita willingness to co-operate, a letter will Immediately be sent to the president of the club. It la not money that these people want, but It la the touch of human aympathy, the as surance that there la a place for them In the community, that women know so well how to give." These alliances wllh the government branches, Mrs. Tennybacker declared, "strengthen us, place ua In the dignified position where we belong, and aid us In doing efficient, scientific work; each step thus taken helps our government and, If we are sane In our action, each such co operative step helps the whole cause of womanhood." i Latin American History. Another recommendation made by the preaident favored action by the federa tion by urging upon the clubs "the study of the life and history of I.atln-Amerlcan peoplea" and that the incoming board suggest definite plans for assisting the development of Tan-American relatione. Recalling that the federation was, by In vitation from the secretary of state, rep resented at the Tan-American rongresa In Washington. Mra Tennybacker said; "Careful study convinces us that Ideal relatlonshipa between the I'nlted Status and the other American republics will never be brought about until the women of the countrlee more thoroughly under stand each other. Knowledge brings until-re tending, and understadlng brings ympathy." Motion Picture Problem. The motion picture waa considered In another recommendation, the president urging the convention to request the In coming board to make a survey of the problem and outline a plan of action. "No question haa aroused more inter est among the homes of our land," she said. "We realise that this institution lias coma tn stay; that It ran be mads a great educational f r-e, thai ni one Is wholly to blame for the stata of affaire that now confronts ua, but we realise aiao that the av.raa. motion plotiire tentla to drgrade rather than to uplift the motl status of the spectator, He meintr, please, I ear the eeraa pl-- lyre, W a want ilia Mpertlen of the film rr-n a! should take no hasty "P " Two Serious Danger, Mrs. liml.c ner ut,-4 'Warning ' J -certain in(t whin aha .1 late t iti. dt, t u. fe,)iet!n. rVl, lri I (ha ...n.Uut U'nptS 1 lof ! tx ptitt, t un TMf i'f.mr,,! v ii u i ah said, t ' Ut p r f rtn ,i ail are "'' '' ' i kf l.ii,tt,, mva. m. ikl tfc it,. n,r.,, n.. t ti u , sva th Hn )r '' 1 ftUI.il.il U I .iv. , t tf mt I s..t prtie a.

USEES OF TOBACCO CENSURED Saratoga Springs, N. Y May 2S. The Methodist general conference re fused today by a vote of 435 to 360 to remove from the discipline of the church the clause which provides the penalty of expulsion for church mem bers who play cards, dance and at tend the theater. More stringent regulation regard ing the remarriage by Methodist minister of divorced persons are provided in a report submitted by the committee on the state of the church. The church ha never recognized any cause for divorce except adultery and ha alway forbidden remarriage in any case where a divorced wife or husband is living. By the proposed change a minister who performs such a marriage ceremony is guilty of mal administration and is to be held an swerable to his conference. The total abstinence by Methodist church member from the use of to bacco i urged in another report, which states: "We regard our solemn judgment that the habitual use of tobacco is a practice rait of harmony with the best Christian life." Polygamy and the social evil are condemned by the committee on tem perance and public morals. The en forcement of laws prohibiting the former is urged. Regarding the social evil the com mittee asserts that neither segrega tion nor punishment by fines is a remedy. The community should offi cially expel and disperse vice, it con tinues, and the state should provide industrial settlements for the mental ly deficient and an honest place in so ciety for those mentally capable. "Parents and others charged with care of the young ought to give care ful consideration to the proper edu cation of our youth, to the end that there may be health of body, purity of mind and righteousness of life, the report concludes. Action will be taken later. Th r"or nf Knsland. ttlt th time of Henry VIII, iuh.net, aa lh ont nj trln1 tin l tl H3, entirely upon prlmte b. nevoti-iire. DR.
