The work of the general federation
is organized under six departments,
as follows:

2. Applied Education, Mrs. John
D. Sherman, Chicago, chairman.

general federation board, presented
programs of work for discussion and
adoption. Under each of these de

divisions with chairmen and in some
instances the divisions have commit

Magazine Discontinued. '
The board reluctantly recommend
ed to the general federation maga
zine incorporators that its publica

closed. This was done because it
is found that the state workers do
not think it possible to raise the
0,000 in subscriptions asked for" by
flie magazine board at the Des
ltoines biennial for 1920-1921 very
Soon as requested. The general
federation has already advanced
from its treasury about $18,000 in
the interest of the magazine and
' cannot spare further sums rfecessary
to tide it over this period of the
high cost of publication.
The heroic and efficient work of
those connected with the publication
v.'as recognized and 'praised by the
board. .
Bulletin to Appear
The press department will publish
n modest bulletin "The General
Federation News" which will go to
all workers and to those clubs, hav
ing direct membership in the general
federation. State federations may
make arrangements to buy at cost an
additional number sufficient to sup
ply each club in the state.

The board as a whole, according
to Mrs. Sheldon, impresses one as a.
group of experienced wide-awake,
purposeful club women who are will

heard. Seventeen members are also
state presidents. The part taken by
each member was characterized by

speech, Mrs. Sheldon reports. "The
spirit of harmony and co-operation

evident that the board was growing
more and more devoted to our lead

was quite as evident that Mrs. Win

promise."
To Nebraska!
Mrs. Sheldon comes back to Ne
braska more deeply pleased with her
native state than ever before. The
water and woods and mountains of
New York and Pennsylvania are full
of picturesque beauty and make a
strong appeal from that standpoint,
she declares. "But among the agri

To Help Nature Shed
a Bad Complexion
,
Beauty devotees are enthusiastic over
the rejuvenating qualities of ordinary mer
eolized wax. Nothing discovered within
recent' years accomplishes so much, so
quickly, without harm or inconvenience.
The principal reason for its wonderful
merit is that it works in harmony with
physiological laws. Instead of hidinc
complexion defects, it removes them. It
actually takes off he aged, faded, sallow,
freckled or blotchy surface skin, gently
and gradually. This is Nature's way of
renewing complexions. When the natu
ral process is retarded because of defec
tive circulation or nerve tone, mereolised
wax comes to the rescue and hastens the
kin shedding. The new complexion
which appears ia a natural one. yautbful,
healthy, exqaisitely beautiful. If you've
never tried mereolised wax, ret an ounce
of it at the drugstore, ire nights like cold
cream, washing it - off mornings and
have the surprise of your life!
Another natural1 beautifying treatment
for-wrinkled skin ia to bathe the face
in a lotion made by dissolving an ounce
of powdered saxolite in a half pint of
witch hl

"Why on earth don't you people tell us about
such" glorious weather?" asked an eastern
woman who, through accident but good for
tune, spent ten days in the Pikes Peak region
last winter.
She had thought' of this region where plain and
mountain meet as "snowed in" with the beginning of
fall. . . ' !
She saw people enjoying the outdoors; saw them
hiking, motoring, golfing.
October, November are glorious. December and Jan
uary see more days of golf than i possible in summer
in many places. , (
If you can take a fall vacation, try a new, restful,
upbuilding kind.
A handsome new booklet tells you inter
ing things about this region. Just
