At a mooting a few days ago representa tives from the Manufacturers' associa tion of Kansas Oity met with tho club women and explained the power they might exert in behalf of local industries. One ot the speakers said: "In the domain of domestic economy woman is almost supremo'. If tho women of Kansas City ehould purchaee home. made goods, whenever possible to obtain them; if they should insist on home-made Hour, home-made baking powders, homo-made soaps, and carry this influence into the multiplicity of articles that go to make up the daily put chases in every house hold, how long would it bo until the fac tories and mills we now have would need to enlarge, and capitalists, learn ing of this condition and looking for fa vorable locations, would select our city as the proper place for the building of now factories, mills and other industrial institutions? In the expansion of our home industries will be found a panacea for pauperism and a dispensation of charity without humiliation, for the most effective charity yet dispensed is the kind that helps people to help them selves. The women of our city, if so in clined, can awaken thought on these questions ae it has never been awakened before. Your intelligent co-operation and interest in this movement ia abso lutely essential to its success. ' f ThiR work was directed by Mr. Wurz burg, and the accompaniments woro played by Mrs. Wurzburg.
