LEAGUE CONVENTION
AS DELEGATE SEES I
(Continued)
Frlilay, June 10th, was .riven over
to the entertainment of league dele
K'lti'H, which wan a "gula day" from
Hturt to finish, the program for the
tiny lielng carried out, with a few ex
ceptlouM on account of the weather,
The turret cur ride along the prlncl
pal HtreetH of St. Ixul wan an
unique affair. State deleghtlona
were placed together, ho that mem
bens of the Hatne atate had a better
opportunity to get acquainted. The
procetmlon win Huid to be two miles
In leu tgth, and each car was lu
lie led "Amerlcau Woman's League.'
Headed by a .first-claim band, they
started out. In fact, I never saw a
happier or more cnthualastlc ttet of
folk anywhere than thone enjoying
this "Seeing St. LoiiIh." Many bust
new) houxes were decorated with
purple and white, the league colon,
and an the cars panned along and
the delegates caught sight of the
colors, cheer aftre cheer echoed and
re-echoed, with rally cry and song
accompanist. The delegates saw St.
Louis and St. Louis saw the dele
gates. After the return to head'
quarters In the Woman's Magazine
buildlug, a surprlrie was In store for
us In the form of a dainty luncheon
prepared aud served by the employes
of the league and those of the Iewls
Publishing Company.
Did you ever see seven thousand
women sit down at a picnic? It was
a scene to be remembered. Every
nook and corner of the Magazine
and league buildings, as well as the
press rooms below, w as occupied by
the same Jolly crowd.
Later the employes presented a
procession of allegorical groups and
floats paintings, textiles, ceramics.
pottery, mt-tals and sculpture.
The delights of Delmar Garden and
beautiful fire works In the evening,
closed the day.
Saturday, the last day of the con
vention, wns bright and lieautiful.
There wns not a cloud In the blue
sky, a symbol of ihe outcome of the
last business session and Its Inspir
ing scenes. The delegates were
prompt and the proceedings were
pushed through in a business man
ner. The work of closing the Found
er's Chapter was declared completed
when each delegate pledged herself to
Immediately secure one or more
members. Enthusiasm was at its
height when Mr. E. G. Lewis was
unaulmously nominated and elected
first president of the American Wo
man's League and also president of
the Founder's Chapter, although he
offered to retire.
Defore the entire business program
was completed, Ex-Governor Folk of
Missouri was Introduced and made a
splendid speech. His tribute to the
women aud the work they are doing
through the league, showed his ap
preciation of the great work It has
on hand.
The convention closed In a wave of
sentiment such as has never been
known in a great gathering. The
spirit of helpfulness and a kindly feel
ing pervaded all hearts, and when
the grand cordon and cordon were
presented the first and second prizes
for the liest work done for the Amer
ican Woman's League during the
past year, Mrs. Amelia II. Gunton
wns called as the one who secured
the first prize, aud Mrs. Clara D.
Ashton ns the winner of the second
prize. Great was their amazement,
as they were not aware of the fact of
winning the prize. More amazed,
however, were they over the fact
of their being sisters who had lost
track of each other for many years,
one living tn Boston and the other in
Los Angeles, and now being brought
face to face. This was only one of 1
the pleasant scenes enacted on that !
day.
The following are a few of the re-'
suits of the first annual convention:
1. The league Is changed from a
department of the Lewis Publishing J
Company to a separate, Independent '
organization with Its own otllces i
and Income. i
2 The Class "A" publishers decide
to depend on the league for subscrip
tion work and not to offer premiums
or conduct prle contests lu the fu
ture. II. The league adopts a permanent
plan, setting forth Its objects and
providing for Its government and for
the government of Its local chapters.
My Impression after seeing the
great buildings, their force of em
ployes and teachers of highest rank
ii oiu i.uruv nun .America, an wen n
the Immense diversity of pure litem-1
t ure, Is that the American Woman's
Lngue. Is the greatest movement of
the age, because It brings lietter op
portunity to the hojne, and a
broader conception of hunjnn rltjht
than the world ever known.
This U the greatest movement, more
worth while than anything rlao with
which I ever cane i vontact. For
Instance, oue uicmlicr I heard of Is
the mother of nine children, all mi'W
21 years of age and eligible to any
course of study, from the kindergar
ten to a scientific college course, also
a course In art, music, etc. In (net,
over two hundred separate counts
without any charge for tuition. A
fourteen year old daughter of this
family U taking the league's lessons
In bookkeeping, and this Is the only
chance the girl could have bad for an
education. So you see the league
has raised the girl from acash girl to
a bookkeeper, and what It will do
for the others Is Immeasurable.
At the present time there are 20,
000 pupils enrolled ami the numlier Is
growing rapidly. A numlier of
honor students are already In at
tendance at University City. In ad
dltlon to the great central unl
verslty, five Independent correspond
ence ochools of high grade are allied
with the league and giving their
courses of Instruction to league
members and their minor children
without any charge for tuition.
The league's source of Income Is lu-
calculabie. Since the affiliation of
the leading publishers of first-class
ui!izines, the largest amount of
money received for subscriptions dur
ing l'His for any one week was (K000;
during l'.WJ for any one week, more
than nO,0UO, a gain of 1.000 per cent.
Twenty-three thousand dollars has
liecn received lu a day for subscrip
tions to the associated magazines.
Mr. Iewls Is now seeing "his
dream" materialized, despite the
fierce opposition, and, having stood
the test, It has now reached the
point where nothing can stop Its
progress. Aud It liehoovea every cit
izen of Hood River to look into the
plan of the league and help to hasten
the day when our beautiful Chnpter
House shall adorn our streets and
stand as a monument to the spirit of
education of a high grade for the
masses, ourselves and our children.
