OFFICKIO OF THE CITV FF.KEUATION.

At a recent meeting of the National
Association of Musical Clubs, held at
the home of its president, Mrs. Theo
dore Sutro.jn New York City, it was
decided to hold the convention this win
ter in Chicago the serond week in Jan
uary. Three hundred clubs are ex
pected to join at this meeting, as two
hundred and thirty have already signi
fied their intention of Lecoming mem
bers. In a notice last week we buried the
city federation prematurely. It still has
figns of lirgering life and one more ef
f jrt will bo made after Christmas to re
suscitate it, when it is hoped the dele
gates from the clubs will have the
leisure to attend a meeting.
In all clubs a disproportionate amount
f the labor devolves upon tha program
committee. The stuuy and research
necessary for the preparation of a suc
cessful oufiue of any subject is greater
than those who hae not undertaken
the work can realiz?.
Wishing to min'uiize this waste of ef
fort, the General Federation of Women's
rlubs has issued a pamphlet by Elizabeth
T. King, Baltimore, on "Suggestions for
the Formation of Club Programs,''
copies of which can be obtained for one
cent each from the corresponding secre
tary, Mrs. Philip N. Moore, 1320 Mis
sissippi Ave., St. Louis, Mo. Clubs are
advised to have a definite aim in view,
whether for profit or entertainment.
The general meetings should be ren
dered as attractive as possible and all
subjects requiring continuous investiga
tion or thought should .bo saved for the
department mce'ings upon whose de
velopment the real mental growth of the
club depends. The wisdjm is also sug
gested in "Joining Eome of the many ex
cellent popular courses of reading and
study issued by university extension
courses, reading circles, etc. The pop
ular four years" course of the Chautau
qua Literary and Scientific Circle is ad
mirabl adapted for the general reader.
In this way the chairman is sived much
unnecessary toil, and the class benefits
by the connection with a well organized
scheme at a very small expens", while
due allowance is left for individual de
velopments. Chairmen are also advised to keep
in touch with the leading educational
institutions of their communities, and
when necessary have an advisory in
structor help formulate a course or pre
pare a bibliography. It seems too
(though this is not mentioned in the
article) that there might be more inter
change of programs among the many
clubs cf this country. When a certain
courseof study has been pursued suc
cessful!' by any club, it would surely bo
a pleasure to its members to pass on the
information to another organization de
siring to follow in that same line of
thought. The suggestions close with
the following paragraph: "There will
also be more time' and strength left, by a
wise conservation of etergy, not only Tor
the ordinary club comfort and pleas
ures, but also for the promotion of Eome
departments of local interests, Euch as
village improvement ussociations in
small towns or household science sec
tions everywhere. But the best gain of
all. through this i.o-operative policy, is a
much-needed consciousness of the sol
idarity of the human race, n centraliza
tion wi. bin the club of the varied in
terests of the community, a development
of local resourse3 often ignored by mem
bers, and a connection with widespread
national movements which will all ulti
mately enrich and enlighten both in
dividuals ant. clubs, and provide end lei b
material for programs."
