For the recent meeting, Mrs. Edith Cunard Beale sent an interesting: paper from Butte, Mont. Her subject was "Inspiration and Interpretation as Ex pressed in Literature," and she-handled it capably. Mrs. Beale said In part: "Obeying one's highest command leads to orig inality. Imitation never will develop this. Be yourself. . Voice your own message. No one else can. Infinity is back of you. Work first at character building, at living the life, thus pre paring a soil that the plant of author ship may have somewhere to grow. Life that life we spell with a capital L, must lie back of genuine production. "There is a vast volume or waste production without inspiration; or where inspiration is sensed, and either through ignorance or ambition not understood, interpretation is made ac cording to materialism, gross, worldly, fleshy ideals. "Spiritual worth is the only real worth; that is, the spiritual- side of things is their reality. Hence produc tion based on any other than a spirit ual basis lacks reality, truth, living ness." Mrs. Bertha Taylor "Voorhorst, in a paper entitled "Creating Home Mar kets," told of many of her experiences as a wriler and a leader in various pro gressive enterprises. Mrs. Voorhorst was one of the first to suggest the school garden work.

She has received great encouragement from a New York ed itor. A free course of French lectures will be given at the Public Library by Ma dame Henriette L'Huillier, of Paris, France.
