President's Message.
"Two words loom large these days,
service and convention, is the mes
sage of Mrs. A. E. Sheldon, president
of the Nebraska Federation of Wo
man's clubs, in the current number of
the club paper. The state convention
will be held in Fairbury in October
lo. bo large is each and so in
separable that they may be written as
one word , 'service-convention.'
Democracy, simplicity, good fellow
ship, strength, are its corners:ones.
Democracy: All the clubs, all officers
and past presidents, all state chair
men have a place on the program
each briefly and but once. Simp'icity:
Everything planned along simple lines
as befits this great war period. Good
fellowship: The convention badge is
full and ample introduction of each
to every other. Each of us will speak
our name as we extend our hand in
hearty greeting and be greeted by the
spoken name and hearty hand clasp of
our fellow club woman. No time for
trying to read names on cards pinned
to our garments at varying heights
and angles. We have our powers of
speech, let us use them. Stength: If
each person will give to the conven
tion together with this cordial spirit,
her best thought, briefly and simply
expressed, in a voice easily under
stood by those in remote seats whose
hearing is not quite keen, we will have
a strong convention.
"We expect at Fairbury to meet a
full delegation from each club; all the
state officers; all the past presidents
living in Nebraska; all the state and
district chairmen. (The hostess club
invites the district chairmen, too!);
and the visiting club women who al
ways are welcome."
