t a t e immediately following the
luncheon.
Mrs. William S. Kinney of Astoria,
the woman in the Oregon legislature,
has sent the following message' to
the club women of the state, which
appears in the Club Women's Bulletin
of January 1 :
"Always the world's message to
woman has been "Service. and evef
has woman hoard and obeyed; bat
as ages passed the world has been
forced, by leaders among women, to
accept her service in ever widening
fields, as humanity's needs called her,
and her own development and eco
nomic necessities forced her from
the home and practice of the so
called domestic arts, into the school,
the store, the manufactory, the of
fice and professions. Always has
humanity and woman herself bene
fitted by the enlargement of her
sphere of activities.
"The twentieth century has given
the American woman the ballot, and
she has entered politics. I believe this
has come about because at this time
our nation has especial need of her
In this field, and because the Amer
ican woman has fitted herself for
such service. This would seem to
be proved by the election this year
of 29 women to the legislatures of
1 5 states Also we seem to have
learned at least that it takes more
than the right to vote and sit In
legislative councils to destroy wom
anliness and the home making in
stinct in our sex. m
"We have learned, too. that women
who struggled hardest for political
freedom and reeognit ion did so not
from motives of personal ambition
or the love of power, but with the
one idea of better and wider service
to the home and nation.
"Good men have come to k now
that w omen do not wish to interfere
with their administration nor nullify
their power but wish only to strength
en anrf perpetuate their rule, in order
to safeguard the home and nation.
They have come to know that wom
an's work and plans for the homo
Can no longer be confined to the
four walls of that home.'
