CLUBDOM
ELECTION of officers and
amendment of the state con
stitution were thenost impor
j tant matters of business which tame
before the Nebraska Federation of
. Women's. Clubs at its 24th annual
convention, held in Fairbury Octo
ber 21.24. This is the 25th year of
txistence for the Nebraska federa
tion, so the meeting -was known as
the. "silver jubilee."
The entire revision cf the consti
tution was rejected.' The two most
vital changes proposed related to
methods of elections and consolida
; lion of the offices of state president,
general federatiif? director and sec
retary. ,
Mrs. John -Slaker of Hastings,
fifth club district, was elected presi
dent. Mrs. Addison E. Sheldonre
) tiring president, was made general
- federation director and secretary.
Other state officers were chosen as
follows: Vice-president, Mrs. E. B.
Penney, Fullerton; recording and
corresponding secretaries, Mrs. S.
; M. Dewey, Fairmont and Mrs. Paul
Jerryman, Ord treasurer, Mrs. E.
G. Drake, Beatrice; auditor, Mrs.
Elizabeth Smith, Chadr6n.
A striking feature of the conven
tion was the opportunity for, and
interest in, discussions following all
big lectures on the program. Three
representatives of state institutions
spoke, three prominent men pre
sented, "Shall private property be
further socialized," an expert domes
tic engineer disclosed methods for
simplifying housework and Dr. F.
M. Fling discussed the making of
world peace. At the close of each
of these-interesting numbers, eager
questions were put and the deepest
' attention given to answers.
1 There were 312 registered dele
' gates and visitors, and probably a
total of 400 out-of-town women in
attendance. The Fairbury women
opened their homes to the outside
club women and otherwise extended
every courtesy in their power. Mrs.
T. I, Hatfield was chairman of lo
cal arrangements. - ' .
A supper party on the opening
night was the one notable social af
fair. Mrs. 'Allen W. Field of Lin-coin-
was mistress of ceremonies.
Special interest on , this occasion,
was taken in the report of Miss
.. Myrtle Judd, ; who represented the
- Nebraska . federation in overseas
-war work. Miss Cora Conoway as
leader of singing was a real factor
in the success of the meetings.
In her "President's Address,"
Mrs Addison E. Sheldon of Lincoln,
reported on her efforts to secure
rates for Nebraska vclub convention-
- 1x4 OCT 26, Sua Rag ...i
ists. Mr. George WBonnell, Lin
coln railroad representative, took up
the matter with Chicago authorities
who replied that whereas the Ne
braska Federation of Women's Clubs
was not of a "religious, educational,
fraternal, chairitable oe military or
ganization," the desired rates could
not be granted. Mrs. Sheldon said
she responded with a recent issue of
x ne Bulletin,, vi. r. . su""s
the federation to be religious, educa
, tional, fraternal, charitable, and in
fact everything except military." A
heartv laugh and applause were re-

Society Ladies Adopt
; NeD) Hair Curling Method
Since tha introduction of liquid silmer
ine in this country, it has become quits)
V "the proper thing" among society women,
who have readily adopted it in place of
the destructive curling iron. The wavea
and cnrls acquired by the new method are
' far more natural in appearance, and tha
hair is of course glossier and prettier than
could be if the Ufa were cooked out of it.
The liquid is pleasant ts use.' being
neither greasy nor sticky. It is a simple
thin to apply wtth a clean tooth brush at
,. night when the hair is down. The lovely
wavy effect in evidence in the morning is
1 all that one could wish for. It costs little
to use liquid silmerine, as a few ounces
from the druggist will keep tha hair in
V g.url so ;.
