In replying to the greetings, Mrs.

To be; so generously welcomed to
breathe the invigorating air of the
uranun nonug vmicy,
hospitality of the city cf
uranae,
where we have been told flows pure
water, abides puTe women, and soma
pure men presumably club husbands
does not come as a surprise to us,
but since our arrival we have found
a country possessed of so much more
varied resources, of so much greater
natural beauty, that we are filled with
amazement .
Through the praiseworthy co-oper
ation of your local press, we have
learned of the efforts put forth for
our entertainment, because of your
loyalty to club women and club
work, by your representative women,
aided and abetted by your representa
tive men.rwho are Important, thousi
silent factors In clubdom.
We who represent the clubs of the
state, return the compliment in the
most fitting manner, by coming divers
ways and distances to ' accept your
courtesy. '
While we do not wish or intend to
neglect the social side of this conven
tion, we are here for serious reasons.
" Each delegate' represents a local
condition that Is of vital importance to
her, and she Is hoping for siyne help
ful suggestions from clubs working
along parallel lines, that will throw
light upon her own tangled problems.
' What One Town Did. ,
There are those who represent pe
cular conditions. I think I will take
Just a moment here and speak of one.
Over a half century ago there was
established at Aurora, Oregon, a Ger
man colony, intentionally shut in from
all the outside world, growing or man
ufacturing everything used: giving lit
tle attention to education other than
music. In which It offered superior
advantages. The old colony band was
at that time famous throughout the
state. . , .
Although the colony , has been dis
banded 25 years, it has: left behind
conservative ideas that do not contrib
ute to club advancement
A handful of club women that are
progressive, have fitted up' a reading
room, have the use of the traveling
library, and a few club and Individual
donations of books. Three" not the
least prized, coming from our state
president
Our ladles have tried, with only
moderate success, to interest the pub

and have received little encourage

our village, that is as naturally beau
tiful as any spot upon which Mount
