Iowa Gives Warm
Welcome to All
, Club Women
In Oriental countries there is a
charming custom of welcome. When
guests, enter their houses the host
says: "My hpuse and all that I
have, are yours.'-1 i
That is what Des Moines, the
hostess city for the 1,5th ' biennial
convention, is already saying to
the members of the General Feder
ation of Women's clubs, who will
meet there June 16 to 23. All Iowa
women (and in such a state women
includes the men) are hostesses on
ihis occasion. " ; N
Iowa extended the invitation for
this convention when thend of
the war was not yet in sight. No
one could foretell , what the two
years might bring forth. It took
both ' faith and courage to issue
such an invitation with the realiza-
tipn that it compels months of self
sacrificing, unremitting 1aJor to pre
pare for entertaining from 5,000 to
10.000. women.
But these Iowa v6men live in a
vonderfol state. It? very name sig
nifies beautiful land,; and all who
,1-sve seen those long stretches of
fertile prairie, covered with the wav
ing tassels of corn, know that it
deserves it. - .
There are 4?0 500 families in Iowa.
Of these 69 per cent own their own
homes. Iowa is as large as Vir
giniaMaryland and Massachusetts
combined, or as largej as alb-the
New England states." Ninety-eight
and four-tenths per cent of its
wonderul soil is productive a rec
ord unrivalled by any other equal
area of land in the world. -There
1 ate more hours of sunshine in Iowa
than in California, and it has never
known a 'crop failure. There is no
point in the state that is more than
1? tniles from a rai'.road.
Human' progress is based upon
.knowledge. A people is judged by
its attitude toward education. Iowa
spends approximately $24,000,000
yearly for educational purposes, or
M0.20 per capita. Thus its achieve
ments as a commonwealth . are
rcasonble a"d to be exoected.
Iowa is the federation's oldest
child. It was the first state feder
ation to Wn the general, federating
in 45 -'ubs fid joining in April,
l&o.V The 1919 year book renorts
149. Twa has loa"ed stronpr and
tolendid women to the-Keneral fed
eration. Our hostesses are bending'
every effort to prepare a glorious
welcome. It is our part as their
Kues's to make them ' glad ve ac
cepted their hopitaMty. '

Second Municipal Concert
Members of the City Concert club
met Thursday at 'the Chamber of
Commerce and made plans for a
second municipal concert to be
given at the ;City Auditorium
Thursday evening, June 10.

Organized Women
Interested in
Marketing
Municipal markets ' arid max
imum 'prices1 which Women will pay
for food and products are the next
step? - club women are taking in
handling the high cost of living
problem. The encouragement of
town markets and the determination
to bring food down to a reasonable
price within the reach of the people
of moderate means is their goat.
The plan is also to extend the max
imum price idea to all dry goods.
By establishing what is considered
a reasonable price for all house
hold commodities, the club women
hope to make abnormally priced ar
ticles a drug on the market. Mer
chants in many towns are. already
co-operating with the club women
by stocking up more on necessities
at fair prices and not so much on
high-priced luxuries. ' Municipal
markets in "Indianapolis and other
cities are controlling the prices of
many foodstuffs. Producers alone
are allowed to oocupy the stalls arid
curbstones. Community -kitchens
converted into canning kitchens, are
proVnised in many cities this sum
mer to Care tor surplus products,
these to be sold at a small profit
above actual operation expenses,
plus the cost of tire vegetables, to
those unprepared to do such work
themselves at home. The Woman's
club at Washington,, Conn., was
among the first to open a community
canning kitchen, and the idea has
now spread to many other New
England communities. Civic com
mittees in state federations of wom
en's clubs are urging the establish
ment of both municipal markets, t(ie
maximum price idea ad the com
munity canning kitchens. These will
all be discussed at the civics and
home economics conferences at the
lienjitfl convention of the General
Federation of Women's clubs in Des
Moines the, third week in June. As
these are subjects vital to the home
the conferences promise to . be
among the most interesting' and
helpful at the convention..

A repertoire cjub will' be added to
the music department of the Omaha
Woman's club next year, according
to Mrs. V. E. Shaier.-. Special at
tention w ill be given, to solo work,
fjuartets and trios. The department
will be divided into 12 teams, each
having a leader and an accompanist.
Music will be a feature of all the
open day programs next season.
Greater attention will be given to
community , singing and chorus
work. V
Mrs Shafer, who has been a
member of the Woman's club since
1910, organized the Woman's chorus'
three years ago. bJie became
leader of the music department the

elected for a third term. Mrs,

Mme. Schumann-Heink is now in
her 43d season before the public as a
professional singer, says Musical
America. This wonderful career
was starte'd when -the woman, who
has endeared herself to thousands
throughout the country, was prac
tically nothing but a child. A long
and honorable career of operatic
and concert work attests to a voice
of luscious warmth, power and all
the other qualities which have gone
to a;d this artist in securing for her
self a position not excelled and in
all probability not equaled in . the
present generation. ;, . ;
