- AMONG THE CLUB WOMEN - z
" - - ' ' ' ' '
: SUMMER CLUB WORK. -
In many of the Eastern women's-clubv
notably those of New York and the large
coast cities, the summer - months are
their busy seasons, as it is then!! they
do their most commendable work in the
shape of providing and conducting out
ings for the less fortunate. 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.

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

To hold aloof under these circum

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.
