ADDITIONAL CLUBS.
The Lacoln Fortnightly met on Fri
day, April 1. It was decided to join the
national federation and the secretary
was instructed to take the necessary
steps thereto.Oflicers for the ensuing year
were elected as follows: President, Mrs.
Barbour; vice preiident, Mrs. Field; sec
retary, Mrs. O, H. Imhoff. Mrs. Imboff
thea read a scholarly paper on the
Dutch struggle for independence. The
club adjourned to meet on April 15 with
Mrs. I. M. Raymond.
We all know in an indefinite way that
our influence is far reaching, but it is
pleasant to have this knowledge appear
in a concrete form.
According to a member of the city
library board, the work of the club
women has been found most helpful in
building up the library. The courses of
study undertaken by the various clubs
are carefully chosen with reference to
the latest and beat authorities. When
ever possible a certain number of these
books desired are purchased by the
library, which is gradually accumulating
the chief workB on a variety of subjects.
It is a case of compensation. The
library accommodates the club women,
but in return it receives the results of
their investigations and experience.
A cloee watch ib kept of the encroach
ments of woman upon the domain of
man. We see only what we are seeking.
Now it the vieion were as carefully
trained to notn the advance of man to
ward the feminine boundaries, many
would be found to have slipped in una
waree. Wo have had men cooks in
abundance, but the addition of domestic
science to the curriculum of a college
for men, is a new thing. The General
Thio'ogical seminary in New York has
lately provided a course of lectures on
cookary (no doubt with their practical
application) for the benefit of those in
tending to enter the mission field. Al
ready six students have entered for the
study, all of whom are destined to serve
in foreign countries. Uhina and India
are among the points designated.
ThiB seems to be an entering wedget
and we may live to see all men study the
rudiments of cookery.
The regular meeting of the W. R. P
C. club wbb held at the home of Mrs. C.
C. Wilson Friday afternoon April 8. In
honor of thiTclub Mrs. Wilson had deco
rated her home prof usely in club colors
and flowers: the mantle being banked

twined. Mrs.Kobrer'8 culimry achieve,
ments was the topic for discussion. The
ladies proved themselves thoroughly ac
quainted with her methods, especially
the hostess, whose delicious refreshments
were enjoyed by all, the delicacies of the
season being served.
An Easter song and a lullaby was
nicely rendered by Mrs. Wilson's two
little neices, also a piano solo by Miss
Kempton.
The ladies then indulged in an egg
hunt which caused much merriment, the
eggs being retained as souvenire.
