Nursing Various Hobbies
Delegates to Des Moines Convention Confess They
Are Seeking Inspiration for Their beveral m
Ideas From Chickens to Americanization.
By MYRTLE MASON.
Des Moines, la., June Ml. The
' big biennial," this gathering of fed
erated club women now in session
in Des Moines, is frequently called.
Not only because of the thousands
of women from all over the United
States who attend, is It big, but in
its scope of interest. A canvass of
the interests among some of Ne
braska's delegates, reveals the fact
that they have come for distinct va
rieties of inspiration and the pros
pect at present is that all will be
satisfied.
"I am interested in literature,"
says Mrs. W. T. Johnson, president
of the DundeeWoman's club.
"Gardening and chickens are my
hobby," declares Mrs. J. Steinberg
of Lincoln, a delegate from the Lin
coln Woman's club. Mrs. Steinberg
has a 50-foot back yard in which
she raises vegetables for summer
and winter use. Her chickens supply
her with eggs the year around. "Util
ize your back yards, is my advice
tc every club woman."
"Democracy for Clubs" is the
subject upon which Mrs. A. E.
Sheldon, past president from Ne
braska and now state director, seeks
inspiration.
Mrs. George Frater is here ' to
learn more about motion pictures
"We made a mistake in North
Platte," ihe states, "when we voted
nut the Sunday movie. I am an
Episcopalian and thought I was
doing my duty in opposing the Sun
day pictures, but find thatin the ab
sence of other recreation, a good
film is better- than the alternatives
our young people turn to."
Mrs. A. H. Brooke of Hastings, is
another Nebraska club woman whose
deepest interest is in motion pic-
1 tures. Mrs. Brooke is acting state
chr.irman of civics. She speaks
highly of the quiet censorship serv
ice which the Omaha Woman's club
has been rendering.
"I'm a hayseed," says Mrs. Florence
Parks of Greenwood, a delegate from
the South Ashland club, "but I have
a special interest in this biennial. I
am here fio drink in inspiration on
community service and good citizen
ship." '
The rural and small town club
challenge the interest of Mrs. Harry
L. Keefe of Walthill, more than any
other phase of club work. Mrs.
CONVICTS. TELL
GOVERNOR THEY
WILL MAKE GOOD
Letters from Road Camps Show
Men Appreciate Work
on Outside.
Lincoln, June 19. (Special.) A
short time ago Governor McKelvie
sent letters to all men from the pen
itentiary working in the road grad
ing camps and in most instances has
received responses to the same. In
his letter the governor said:
"I take this opportunity of saying
a word to you so that you may be
again assured of my interest in you
and the work you are doing.
"I feel sure you realize that the
success -of this undertaking depends
entirely upon the men in whom we
have placed this trust and it is my
belief, in spite of the failure on the
part of a few to make good, that
we have , not made a mistake in se
lecting you as one who can be trust
ed. Ask Co-operation.
"To make good under this test
means more than you, perhaps, re
alize. It means that when you again
receive your liberty, you will have
proven your ability to make good
and that will restore you to the con
fidence of the world in a way that
you could not otherwise easily do.
I want to feel that when you go out
jnto the world again, I. may be able
to say on your behalf, that you were
fair and honest and reliable with
me and with the warden and with'
your fellow workers and all others
with whom you come in contact
"This is a new undertaking and
we must all pull together to make it
a success. I want you to assure me
that you will do this."
Appreciates Governor's 'Act
Here are some quotations from a
few of the letters received in reply
by the governor:
"1 certainly appreciate the fact
that a man ot your standing has in
terest enough in me and in humanity
in general to write these encourag
ing words to me. I thank you above
all for the assurance that my mak
ing good may mean the greatest
thing that mankind craves lib
erty. I assure you that I will
not only help this great and
worthy enterprise and these men at
this time, but you may count on me
to be a true and trustworthy citizen
if I have the privilege to make good."
Proud of Honor.
"I will not only make good here,
but will become a useful, honest man
when I am again free. Luck to you
in your next election."
"I am trying my utmost to make
good and would like to thank you J
and Warden Fenton for yow kind
deed to give me a chance.
"AIIor'me opportunity of thank
ing you for the' confidence that you
have put in .me, and I will show you
how much I, appreciate it- You have
done more teCput me on the right
road than I thflik that you realize."
