- Silver Jubilee Convention..
The Nebraska Federation of
. Women's clubs, with its more than
10,000 members divided into groups
v of varied-, size, living all the way
'v from the Missouri's water edge to
. the picturesque foothills of the
t Rockies, are "looking forward."
t; There is nothing unusual about that
.'. frame of mind, but the event upon
which eyes are centered is some-
:", what out of the ordinary. It is the
x , silver jubilee convention to be held
1 ,j at' Fairbury, October 21-24, on the
; occasion of Nebraska's twenty-fifth
' ; anniversary as a .federation.
A supper party will open the con
ventiort and its success as a bril
liant affair , is guaranteed by , Mrs.
Charles H. Dietrich of Hastings,
- chairman of program. Mrs. A. W.
Field of Lincoln, known for. her wit
and wisdom, has consented to be
" . mistress of ceremonies.
A great treat is in store for the
convention in Mrs. Frank Ambler
Pattison, an advisory domestic en
gineer with offices in New York
City and one-time president of the
New Jersey Federation of Women's
clubs. . t
"Shall ' Private Property Be Fur
ther Socialized," will be the big topic
for Wednesday, October 22. Mr.
William F. Baxter and Mr. Horace
M. Davis of Omaha and Hon. Ar
thur G. Wray of York will lead in
the discussion of this subject. ,
Dr. FrVd Morrow Fling, professor
of European history, University of
Nebraska, will speak the closing
, evening on "The Making of World
Peace. , Dr.Fling was chief of 'the
- section of diplomatic history on the
. general staff in Paris.
The outstanding business feature
of the convention will be the action.
J taken on the report of committee on
revision of the state constitution.
This committee recommends that
the offices of state president and di
, rector from the state to the general
federation be combined. It is also
proposed to change the time of
meeting for the state convention
from fall to spring.
Election, of officers, which occurs
biennially, is due for the Fairbury
meeting. Mrs. Addison E. Sheldon
of Lincoln, president, is not eligible
for re-election under the constitu
tion. Mrs. M. D. Cameron, Omaha,
' director from Nebraska to the gen
ial federation, is eligible for re-election
under tne present constitution,
but if the recommended changes are
- adopted the newly-elected president
will automatically become director.
i Delegates' from the Omaha Wom
an's club, elected at the annuaf meet
ing last spring, .are:
Mesdames E. S, Jewell, E. E.
i ' Crane, . Howard J. Bailey, James
' Dahlman, C. W. Hayes, F. A, How

Legislation for Yocng Humanity.
Nebraska is alert to her respon
sibility toward the children of the
state. ; A bill sponsored by the
Nebraska Federation of Women's
Clubs, providing for a state child
welfare bureau, passed the last state
' legislature and became a law April
' IS, 1919, when Governor McKelvie
signed the bill.
The law provides for a code com
1 mission, to be independent of but
co-operative with the bureau itself.
The commission, consisting of IS
. mcinScr. wai anoointed by the gov-
V" erfior September 25. Omaha has
J i strong representation on the com
mission in Mrs. Draper Smith, rep
resentative of federal and state
- agencies for, child welfare; Judge
Howard Kennedy, formerly district
judge, juvenile coUrt judge, member
'" board ofommissioners state insti
- tut ions-and lawyer; Miss Charlotte
Townsend, R. N., supervisor of med
ical inspection in the public schools;
. W. W. Bradley, secretary Nebraska
Humane society, and Dr. Palmer
Findleyr surgeon. and professor.
It is the duty of the. commission
to make a cateful study of child
welfare, with especial reference to
Nebraska problems; to carry on in
vestigation and study of the whole
.subject, and submit a report to the
governor not laterthan December,

ties of those .natural unis of a
beautiful Complexion. In fact a
sweet expression is made a hundred
times more enchanting when the
complexion is lovely.
All you need to do is to clear the
skin of pimples, blotches, liver
spots, blackheads, muddy complex
ion and skin eruptions by using
Stuart's Calcium Wafers. These
troubles seek the skin as one-of the
natural outlets of the body. And
if you supply it with the proper ma
terials it will pass off in the pores
of the skin,instead of ugly accumu
lations. Get a box of Stuart';, Cal
cium Wafers in any drug store at
50 cents. You will then realize what
it means to be prettier than your
picture. N
