laws
saying she had come expecting to find a
small audience in a small room and in
the presence of such vast numbers she
now felt like the figure of Pesldent Mc
Kinly in one of the buildings looked
scared stiff. She opened the subject
with the kindergaten, the nursery phase
of the school. Kindergartning was real
good mothering and that was all there
was to it. She advocated a domestic
phase of education in tho introduction
of cookicg and sewing into the schools.
This had been done in Philadelphia.
"Art in the Home, tho School and tho
Community'' was the subject of a prac
tical paper read by Mrs. Herman Hall or
Chicago, the founder of the Central Art
association of that city. At its close
Mrs. Thomas Keiley sang Goring
Thomas "Summer Night " Her beau
tiful voice and artistic rendition gave a
new charm to the familiar song.
Mrs. KateThannett Woods, of Salim,
Mass., was announced to speah on "Club
Courtesies,'' but her trunk containing
the manuscript, had not arrived. She
gracefully declared the paper a super
fluity since Omaha, in tho courtesies ex
tended, had shown a full knowledge of
the subject. Mrs. Woods' informal
words were most pleasing.
The Lorelei quartet sang "Stay With
Me" by Lob, and then Mrs. Ellen A.
Richardson of Boston, closed the pro
gram with an exhaustive paper on "Ihe
Keystone of the Educational Arch.'
A large number of the members of
the Deborah Avery chapter of the D. A.
R. attended the banquet given at Oma
ha by the Nebraska Sons and Daughters
of tho Revolution on Friday evening in
commemoration of the twenty-second
anniversary of the battle of Bunker
Hill.
More than one hundred persons,
tracinc their ancestry direct to 6ome
combatant in the revolution, were seat
ed at the tables. The dining room of
tho Paxton was handsomely decorated
with American flags and potted plants
and an orchestra played national airs
during the banquet. The menu cards
bore handsome engravings of the battle
of Bunker hill and General Washington
and beneath the courses on the bill were
appropriate quotations taken mostly
from Jho sajings of revolutionary he-
TOGS
Hon. L. D. Richards of Fremont acted
as toastm aster.
'The Men Behicd the Rail Fence,"
meaning the little party of men who de
fended their comrades retreat at Bunker
Hill, was replied to by Edmund M.
Bartlett of Omaha.
Mrs. Elizabeth H. Lowrie of Omaha
spoke on "The Women of TO Their
Spirit Still Lives." "The names of the
heroines who stayed at homo and fur
nished the supplies for the troops havo
not been written it history as have those
of the heroes who went into the field,"
said Mrs. lowrie, "but they were the
inspiration of all the great victories
won and it was they who made tho war
possible. And in our present crisis it
will be found that the spirit of the
women has been inherited by the women
of 1898, who will rise to meet any emer
gency they may be called upon to face."
"Our Former Oppocents" was the
subject treated by Fred W. Vaughn of
Fremont. Mr. Vaughn said that 100
years was IoDg enough to husband an
injury and that the United States is
now in a position to accept the right
hand of fellowship which England has
extended.
"The Minute Men," was the sentiment
Mrs. Elizabeth C. Langworthy of Sew
ard responded to. After eulogizing tho
heroic minute men Mrs. Langworthy
expressed the belief that just such he
roes live today as was shown by the
haste with which 100,000 men answered
the president's call for troops.
"Our Two Talents," in the opinion of
William IT. Alexander of Omaha are
liberty and union. We havo not al
lowed them to remain in the dark, but
have made good use of them, and as a
result havo produced tho grandest na
tion the world has ever known.
In speaking on "Anniversaries, 1776
1803," Mrs. Winona S. Sawyer of Lin
coin, contrasted the two years, each
being a time of war. The righteo'isness
of the war of the revolution is beyond
dispute. In the present crisis it is to be
hoped that Columbia did not put to her
lips the cup of war for the sake of con
quest; if so, it will prove like Circe's en.
chanted cup. But the momentous crisis
of thepiesent is not the trouble with
Spain but a waiting for a virtuous citi
zenship. The United States is not in
need of territory, but it is in need of in
dividual character building.
John R. Webster of Omaba, president
of the Nebraska Sons of the Resolution,
spoke on "The Unexpected Always Hap
pens," and after a brief review of the
battle of Bunker Hill, introduced George
D. Hale, president of the Kansas Sons
of the Revolution, who made a short
plea for the protection of the American
flag from all abuses.
Before leaving the entire company
rose and sang "America."
The Nebraska Sons and Daughters
met together for the fir t time last week.
All over the country there seems to be a
growing desire to have some bond of
union between the two organizations.
Tne Daughters here have acquired such
enthusiasm that the Sons cannot fail to
feel its stimulating effects, and as tho
object'of both organizations is identical,
some co-operation would seem appropri
ate.
