One club looks after a certain number' of phUt dren past a given age. Another for' ba bies, another for shop girls, another' for mothers and kp 'on. ad libitum, giving to each ' individual ' a specified time,- but often extending it according to the needs of -the beneficiary. In this way hun dreds of women and children have an outing and many "lives saved by their.! being taken out Of the crowded, over heated city during the hot months. One club, composed entirely of young uumar ried women, maintaina a, borne that will accommodate 12 children at a time. At tendants are provided for the care of the children, a cook and other necessary help engaged, but the young women of the club,, two at a time, take their turns in staying at the home to maintain order, oversee 'the housekeeping, and furnish entertainment and amusement for the children. Early In the year each young woman has her serving time appointed thus at little personal sacrifice, her own summer plans are not Interfered with. The club is large enough that It requires only two weeks of each member's time to fill the three hot months. Two weeks is allowed to each child, unless for cause a longer time' la given. Each set of young women take and return their 12 culldren and have the privilege of selecting them, complying with cer tain regulations. The club owns the home, which Is a lovely country house and several acres of land, about a hun dred miles . from the city. The average cost of conducting It is $3 per week per hlld. It is said not the slightest trouble Is experienced In raising the funds for conducting it, many people considering It a privilege to, be allowed to pay for one or more children during the entire sea son. Who will not say that while adminis tering to the health and happiness of unfortunate children, the work of this club Is not two-fold, for surely it 's training its members to business meth ods making Of them good housekeepers and preparing them for that God given function sympathetic motherhood. A MONUMENT TO DR. MCLAUGHLIN.

The unveiling of such a monument In 1906 would be an achievement for the club women of the state worth working for.

' Let club discussions be frequent and upon a variety of subjects. Taboo, noth ing, provided you have a presiding offl- f eer strong enough to control the speak ers", but . while nothing should be barred out, wisdom would suggest topics that would by no possibility tempt the family skeleton to parade. Current topics' should always have a place- but - should not consist of views of the latest books, or voluminous clip ping from newspapers a week old. Two or three of the latest events which will call forth opinions and provoke dis cussion makes a good number on any program. If you are taking up educational, .so ciological or philanthropic work thor oughly study the conditions around you. Otherwise much of your .good seed may fall, on barren soil. Select your committees for fitness and not for the purpose of complimenting som member. Agood - and charming woman does not always make an efficient committee worker.' A NEW CLUB.

TO STRENGTHEN THE FEDERATION The state officers hope that during the year a large number of clubs will be gathered Into, the State Federation. It is only In united efforts that great re sults can be achieved. ' The small exclusive club and tbere are a number of them can accomplish little for ItselF and nothing for others, while the large club that can stand alone and .does not need the federation Is the very one needed by the organis ation to uphold and strengthen It. ' To hold aloof under these circum stances. Is a selfishness that will recoil upon itself as time goes on. HERE AND THERE. A decided effort is being made to in duce women to discard "papers." They are, to say the least, passe. If you have statistics which would fit into your fem linne brain, make a note of them. No body objects, to notes being occasionally or even often referred to, but they do object to the ungracefulness and un graciousness of having a woman's head burled In a paper till her voice sounds as some one says, "like a cuckoo clock." A speaker at Los Angeles, Mrs. Blan kenberg, a staunch suffragist, in urging upon the convention the necessity for women studying politics and civil service reform said: "Politics comes Into tha home in many ways they come through the . water pipes and the more corrupt tho politics the dirtier the water." Every club should have a historian, and every memberur person reading a paper before the club should be asked to tile a type-written copy with the histo rian. If notes are not used a stenog rapher should bff employed to take the address. This -not only preserves the records of the club but shows its ad vancement and progress or otherwise, as Is ocaslonaUy the case, when it may serve as a hint to disband. dren were burned to death In their house near Elliott, Cel.. on Tuesday night.
