THE state convention of the Ore
gon Federation of "Women's Clubs
held at Eugene this -week closed
Thursday and the women are back
from the meetings with new ideas and
with a greater enthusiasm for club
work. Woman is a recognized factor
in the world's work and the clubwoman
is a leader in all progressive move
ments, but tfie women at the federa
tion gathering held as most important
of all club work the preservation of
the home and the welfare of the child.
No good clubwoman neglects these.
Mrs. Sarah A. Evans, president, gave
an inspiring' report and presided capa
bly at all the sessions. Mrs. Fred
erick Eggert, chairman of the scholar
ship loan fund, told of the good work
that department is accomplishing in
helping young women.
Mrs. G. H. Pettinger reported on
"Education" and Mrs. Alice Weister on
"Art." Mrs. Millie Trumbull reported
for the legislative committee and Mrs.
C N. Rankin spoke on "Club Ethics."
The state president, Mrs. Sarah A.
Evans, In her annual report at Eugene
said:
More and more I am impressed each year
with the thought that the President's ad
dress is a relic of antiquity, a necessary
evil for which no adequate remedy has yet
been provided, with the single redeeming
feature that It gives her an opportunity to
retract much she has said the year before
and revise what Is 16ft.
Someone, has said that "war is the nega
tive of all things good." If this is true,
and I think we will all admit it, then all
things good should be used to combat it.
And It is no exaggeration to say that the
world is looking to the women to fall into
the breach and raise all nations of the
earth to the eminence of universal peace.
Like learning, there is no royal road to
this. We may talk peace, we may listen
to peace sermons, we may gorge ourselves
with the peace literature that is flooding
the land, we may send miles of peace pe
titions to the rulers of the world, and while
not decrying the moral and psychological
effect of these things, but highly commend
ing thm i ' for their beneficent Influence.
nevertheless until the spirit of peace has
taken possession of our souls and manifests
itself in our dally walk and conversation
will peace reign.
Recent events have shown us that It Is
In this we have failed, and that if we would
progress we must make this Inward spirit
of peace the keynote of all our future
service.
It will com to us, not in a cloud of
glory, but through the clear vision, the
proper adjustment of the individual life to
the requirements or a 2tn century worm.
It will come by peeling off the veneer, lay
lnr aside the superficialities and facing,
thouxh it may be an ugly sight, the causes.
rather than attempt to cure the effects,
which are continually breaking out through
civic unrighteousness, misapplied education,
politlcai corruption, greed, extravagance and
U lit? vices that led up to general unrest.
Napoleon once said, in discussing the men
behind the guns: "In war, men are nothing;
one man is everything. And we believe that
In peace women are nothing; one woman is
everything. She who can lead the com
munity, not to have better things, but to

Mrs. J. C. Elliott King la chairman
of the school beautifying committee
and is orominent In club and parent
teacher work
observer, a deep student of history and of
human life on both side of the Atlantic,
after discussing some of the American
methods of business, recently said to an
American woman:
"One has the feeling that you are on the
eve of something tremendous in America.
And here, as in England, it Is the women
be better, is greater than, he who taketh a
city.
A great Englishman, who is a trained
who are doing the job! Your women are far
in advance 01 your men. icon are tn
keepers of the Ideals of your country, and
the higher life of the nation is in. your
hands."
With oue exception, we believe all this 1
true, but we cannot accept the assertion tha
our women are In advance of our men. We
believe men are very largely what women
have made them, in business as in ail else.
A son seldom falls below the Ideals of hi
mother. If those ideals have not been vis-
ionary. but are wise and practical and
founded on truth, justice and mortality, with
an example in practice as well as in precept,
To create these Ideals and make them
ring clear through every depth, and every
walk of life. Is the burden now placed upon
the women of America.
Oar first effort in this direction should
be to cease running after false gods" or. In
other words, allowing ourselves to be car
ried away by what appears good without in
vestigating ls sequences, by surrendering
our common sense to sympathy, vitiating
our beneficiaries through emotional philan
thropy and by a superficial knowledge of
the things we are striving for. To Illustrate:
On every hand we hear a clamoring for the
Introduction of "vocational training" into
our school system. This is In response to
the conviction that our school systems do
not fit the children for their life work. .
We believe, however, that a definite note
of warning must be' sounded lest we adopt
a system which will be destructive rather
than constructive. Any method that will
fit a child for present Industrial systems
will be dlsastroua
Would It not be better to establish a
method of vocational training for our chil
dren so that basic principals be taught,
rather than Industrial methods? Then boy
or girt will be able to adapt himself to any
Industrial method Instead of being at sea
because he cannot use the one thing he is
taught In school.
Let us not forget in our study of voca
tional training or guidance or under what
ever name it may be called, that the thing
that must be avoided, at what ever cost.
Is the crime of fitting children for the in
dustry of today. We would be makinr of
them simply cogs In the machine or today
ana when new methods are evolved tne old
machine is thrown away, and our children
join the army of the unemployed. voca
tional training, continuation schools, learn
ing a trade, all names to con lure with, let
us study them carefully and Intelligently be
fore taking them Into our school system.
aow tnat the unemployment situation has
ssumed such proportions that It cannot be
controlled, and has become a matter of
Federal inquiry, it Is a nroDer sublect for
ine ciuDwomen to consider. ,
Portland's experience last "Winter taught
us that the situation has its menace as well
as its pathos. We no longer vl&w "the man
out of work" as the one to be wholly
blamed for his condition. We have ceased
to be maudlin over the cathetlc nicture of
the man, hungry, sick and homeless. Our
sense oi justice nas been forced to look
Into both sides of the question and looking.
we nave iouna a multitude of circumstances
that have created "thu man out of work."
On the other hand, let us demand nn
honest day's work for an honest ilav'n nv:
let us have no more herding of the unem
ployed ; let us xurnisn a fair, honest oppor
tunity to work, and Insist upon the fulfill
ing of the law, "By the sweat of thy brow
shalt thou eat bread."
Many believe that the correction of most

sensibilities of every mother.
ivm m-ide is another false god, and too
frequently Is the cover under which civic
corruption Is permitted to exist. Better far
be the trouble-maker, the surgeon who opens
the sore and heals the wound, even though
It leave a scar, than uermlt. through civic
pride, the evil to exist until the whole body
politic Is diseased.
If the clubwomen of this state wouM fn.int
upon no taxation without renrwntgtiAn
standing firmlv where the men of the state
pui mem. equal participants in all civic
ana governmental functions, rlvin ti-Ma
could ring as true In Oregon as the cola of
iiic reaim.
There is no Question before th im.rin
vouuio ioaav paramount to that of the In
creaslnc- cost of livinar. it is not a situa
tion entirely growing out of the war; but
it win do a tremendous factor In Its adjustment.
We are proverbially an extravagant and
wasteful Nation. We have squandered our
natural resources, and have -only begun to
learn the traeic lesson that waste Inevitably
makes want.
It is the exceptional woman who dM not
believe that she administers her household
affairs with economy and thrift, while it is
tne rare execution to lind one who does.
No branch of our club activities Is so
grossly neglected as that of home econom
ics. It has not only rapidly assumed the
dignity or a science, but by the recen
b nut h-lever bill, has had Federal funds
made available for its promotion, yet fewer
women attend these classes than they d
the Shakespeare, Browning and Dante
classes.
President "Wilson has urged upon th
women the need of curtailment and simpler
living: ana miss Johnson, of the National
Home Economics department, writes: "Agi
tation, boycotting, suspicion of producers,
louocis ana retailers, are unintelligent xneth
ods of meetinsr the situation which call
uoon us for the exercise of every domesti
womanly virtue. It Is our treat opoortu
nitv to show what women can Mo to prove
tneir sanitv ana wisdom, for the actual pros-
neruv or tne country Tor a time, must, to
considerable decree, lie in the consumers
hands."
Great International questions will, tinder
exist in r conditions, enter Into this situation
but our only present hope llee in the study
and intelligence of the Individual woman.
Let us rive work to our own unemployed
by creating a demand for home products,
home music, art and literature.
A survey of the amendments to be voted
on at our cominr election, will convince the
Intelligent voter that we have come very
nearly earainc the reputation some one re
cently Rave us when they called "Oregon
the experiment station for fake legisla
tion."
Before votlnr op any measures let us put
Into them the lntelliftence we promised we
would when we asked for the ballot. Let
us remember we stand equally responsible
for every law that is enacted through popu
lar vote.
No hicher privilege could be accorded any
woman than to be an enfranchised citizen
under these circumstances.
The past year has been one of unusual
prosperity for the Federation. The Increase
in our membership has been unprecedented,
and the accomplishments of our committees
have been in proportion to our growth.
Early last Fall we established in Portland,
under the auspices of the Federation,
Conference of Clu-bs. which meets at luncheon
the third Saturday of each month, where
we discuss, in an informal way, club affairs.
We have found these meetings both helpful
and interesting-, and I would suggest that In
anv town where there is more than one club
that this plan be adopted.
3v a --te of this conference, an invita-
lion was extended to the Genera! Federation
to hold its council meeting of 1915 in Port
land, and on the ISth of last month we re
ceived a telerram sarin r the invitation had
been accepted, by a unanimous vote of the
, executive board. We were also notified
