Ta cluing anting of the child stady
department of the Lincoln Woman's
club will be of so much general interact
that the doora will be open to the public.
Today Dr. Wolfe will apeak on Moral
Nature and MotjI Training. Tnere will
ako be papers by Mrs. M. C. Dinsmore
aad Mrs. H. L. Miller. The attendance
of mothers is especially desired.
The meeting of the reading circle of
Gretna April 14, was well attended by
both members and attentive listeners.
More than fifty were in attendance. Boll
call was answered by quotations from
Holmes. A review of his life and men
tion of his works was given by Mr.
Nichols and each member read a poem
from Dr. Holmes. Instrumental and
vocal music followed and added to the
pleasure of the evenfbg. After the re
gular program a number of statistics
were given as conundrums, and these
were interspersed with "funnygraphs."
The circle then adjourned to meet May
13, in the study of Tennyson.
The last two meetings of the WomanV
literary club of Stanton have been moat
interesting, the child, study superinten
dent Mrs. Frank Huntly, having charge"
of the meetings. Mrs. Sarah Crane,
kindergarten tsacher in our public
school, read an excellent paper and led
the dtecussioa on "In what way can the
parents assist the teacher?" 1. By con
versing with the child on his studies
during the day. 2.- -By cultivating ac
quaintance with the teacher and her
msthods and assist her in carrying them,
out.
A piper followed by president Young
entitled ''In what way can teachers as
sist parents?" was filled with new
thoughts and bright suggestions and
called forth a lively discussion. This
was followed by current events and a
recitation from Wfaittier by Mrs. Under
burg. Our next meeting will discuss
"The child in the home."
The various chapters of the D. .A. R.
throughout the west choose one of' their
own number as chaplain. But this is
not so in the east, where a regularly or
dained mintster is often requited for
this office. In pJLprobability he is aleaa
"sob of the Revolution, as surely 'no
alien woald be admitted into close re
latioss with the order.
The New York City chapter has for
chaplain the Rev. Dr. J. Nevett Steele
an assistant of Trinity church. On Sun
day atternooo, April 17, the whole order
attended Old Trinity to hear a sermon
by the chaplain. The church was de
corated with flowers and the' national
flag. After the services the Daughters
decorated the graves of the Revolution
ary heroes in the Trinity churchyard
with'flowers.
Alexander Hamilton and many other
early patriots lie buried there, bnt from
present indications the Daughters will

no longer need to turn their patriotic

Mary Barne's literary club of Fuller
ton held its regular meeting with Mrs.
Kate Thompson. As this was the dsy
for the election of officers we-had no
study. Three new members were added
to our list. We have adopted the mem'
benhip fee .plan for the coming year.
Each member is to pay 21.00 which en
titles her to the banquet and covers all
expenses for the year.,
The result of our election: Mrs. M.
H. Barber, president; Mrs. J. N. John
eon, vice president; Mrs. El'sworth,
treasurer; Miss Mary Fee, secretary;
Mrs. S. H. Penney, reporter.
Our club will sustain a great' loss by
the removal of Mrs. Fay Lagrange, who
goes to Genoa to live. Because of the
appreciation and esteem we have for
this member, she was presented with a
beautiful cut glass bon bon dieh. Mrs.
Hatton presented the token. The re-
ceiver was so surprised and overcome
she could only reply with tear filled
eyes.
The meeting closed with refreshments
served by the program committee.

music at the Denver Biennial. Mndcal
numbers will be furnished by the various
local musical clubs, but are intended
simply to lighten the programs ana not
to bring those clubs into prominence. It
is questionable if many purely musical
organizations will remain in the General
Federation, now that a similar bond of
union confined solely to their own inter
ests exists. Custom has decreed that no
program is complete without a few
melodious numbers, which are regarded

as a bore by an audieno assembled to
hear papera or a discussion. For the en
joyment of any intellectual pleasure, no
matter how good the mind and mood
must be in touch with the subject, and
when a meeting k called for a definite
purpose, the sooner that purpose is in
troduced the better. Any delaying ele
ment, be it music or other topic, can
only be regarded a hindrance.
The General Federation baa bjen
thought to nead the musical club3 for
variety, but unless a definite and dis
tinct place of their own U assigned them
on the programs, it would be as well for
the music to Le omitted. A lecture re
cital on American Folk Songs by Villa
Whitney White of Chicago, will be the
one feature of the Biennial of distinct
oducational value to musicians. Miss
White has gained quite a reputation
both as a charming speaker and a de
lightful interpreter of the B3ngb of all
nations. She has given many lecture
recitals before the musical clubs of the
country.
