Weber of Omaha, vice president. Mrs. Bacon in a comprehensive dis cussion of future plans, appointed each woman present at the congress this year, as a delegate to next year's meeting. Official notice of appointment will be sent out later by the governor. These delegates pledged themselves to attend next year and bring 10 farm women with them. "1 am most gratified with the deep interest shown," declared Mrs. Bacon, speaking of the congress. "I can't say how happy I am with the success of the meetings. In my opinion this organization of farm women will become the great est organization of women in the world." "John Barrett of the Pan Ameri can organization, is anxious that South American women will, ex change conventions with the North American groups," said Mrs. Bacon. The Nebraska women were urged to make niore study of Spanish lan guage and customs, in preparation for the greater sympathy and con tact which will develop between the continents of the western hemi sphere. - One of the plans for next vear in cludes a "'White Breakfast," at which each woman will appear in white.

When a standing committee on civil service reform was first ap pointed by the executive board of the General Federation of Wom en's Club, some conservative clubs felt doubtful of the wisdom of this policy. "The civil service will lead us into politics," they said. This was in 1902. In this year of grace, even the most conservative mem bers know that the path of civil service reform leads straight into our homes. It does 'not mean nec essarily a stereotyped system of ex aminations. It does mean efficiency in the public service. Our civil service is the outward and visible sign of our government. It is the proof that our government is not remote and impersonal, but vety near and personal, and as the visible manifestation of the govern ment the civil service affects every citizen every hour of every day for good or for. ill. The civil service affects us in the houses we live in. Their safety and healthiulness depend upon the effi ciency of the building inspector and the plumbing inspector. When these civi1 service officials are appointed for their political activities rather than their knowledge of building and blumbing, our health and our com fort suffer. Our losses by fire far exceed those of any ot!er country, because the average building put up by some contractor with a puK is a mere fire trap. Laws regulating light and drainage in tenements are easily evaded by contractors who find it cheaper to give a contribution to the party in power, thus ensuring a complaint inspector, than it is to build with no dark rooms, water on every floor, and fire escapes that are fire-proof. The school houses, in which our children pass so much of their time, are tco often neglected by the building inspectors. Not so very long ago, 27 public school houses in one of oi-r largest cities were re poncJ as having no fire escapes, two had no water on the premises, and many had doors that opened in ward. Do you remember that public school house in Cleveland that burned down some years ago with great loss of life? Investigation showed that the. building never had been insnccted: that the stairs were narrow, and the doors opened in ward. The inspector had either been too busy with his political du ties to examine the building or too ignorant of the building laws to make the required examinations. Imogen B. Oakley. H. C. L. Conference. Mrs. .r. H. Blackwell of the Omaha Woman's club, railway mail service, who was among those at tending Governor McKelvie's con ference at Lincoln Thursday on the about Sl)0 women attended the meetings, more than half that number being from towns over the state. Twelve wom en were present from Omaha. Gov ernor McKclvie addressed tne gathering in the morning, and dur ing the afternoon talks were giver, on foods and clothing. It was agreed to inaugurate a state thrift campaign to eliminate useless buy ing. Committees will be appointed to determine but not fix, fair prices. Governor McKelvie said that in creased production and elimination of uneconomic methods of distribu tion would help solve existing eco nomic evils. Associated Charities. December was an unusually busy month for the Associated Charities, not only because of stimulated serv ice for Christmas, but because of the fuel shortage. Mrs. George Doane, general secretary says that 1,050 visits were made during the month and " 450 families received help. There were 383 applications for relief and 672 office interviews.
