HILS prealdant Taft was In
Panama, th Cwnl .Zono fad-
- rat Ion waa In aeaalon. Bo
ing Invited to addreaa tha a-
v - aembly, aa both ha and Mrs.
Taft war visitors to It, ha aald In part:
"Tt la a. rreat pleasur for ma to
ba her with Mra Taft, to express the
sympathy we both feci In Woman's
clubs" avery where, but especially on
tha Isthinua and In tba one.
"Tha problem of tha construction of
tha canal Involves tha prfwnce of a
great many'peopla who, whlla here, are
to ba away from home, and. In order
to make It poaalbla to secura tha pres
ence of those persons necessary In the
construction, it la tne duty or me gov
ernment to make Ufa hera as bearable
and tolerable aa possible. Now the
Americana, who are largely to construe
the canal, are a gregarious people. They
are a people' wno oeneve in society ana
association, and a people who without
. ' association and without society are not
ant to enlov life, who are ant to De
. coma morbid; and those who are morbid
and lonely and do not enjoy life never
', accomplish much In Ills, and certaini
no not make the best aa-enta for sue
r. a a rest work as the construction, of
Xba raual.
"For that reason the organization of
' clubs, the construction or this hotel tne
building of' ohurohea, and everything
. that the government may possibly do
to make life enjoyable here and to bring
Tteonia torether. the government has a
right to do and has a duty' to do.
; Americana do hot lack initiative. Ameri
can women do not lack Initiative, I am
able to say that from first hand close
association with the sex; and tha or-.a-axuaation..
of cluba of course Is one
of the first instruments by which so
ciety and Intelligent association can be
promoted. - . . "
'Lftdiea, I wish for your association
all the grood fortune possible, all the
' prosperity possible. I congratulate you
on having developed to auch an 1m-
portant stage aa to call for a visit from
- the representatives of women'a clubs
In the United States. I congratulate
you on their coming, and I hope this
particular meeting will be) productive
of good. - I congratulate you aa cltisens
- of the United States, residents on the
Isthmus, upon the very great progress
which is being made on tha canal, and
the fact that we can now look forward
' with soma deflnltenesa to-a completion
- of the great work, and, when it la com
pleted, every ona who has had any con
nection with it make take to herself
r himself a great deal of credit In
having participated In tho greatcon
ntructlve work of the nineteenth and
twentieth centuriea.' -
This was tha fourth annual conven
tion of the Canal Zona federation, which
. It will be remembered, the United States
government sent Miss Helen wosweu
" down to the lathumus to organize.
The-federation works -through four
; committees, ' education, philanthropy,
" homo and art and literature. The strong
est committee is the philanthropic,
which, in operation with tho clubs has
. done splendid work under the chairman
. ship of Mra.. Thomas W.' Brown Jr.
The formation of the Botanical com
mittee for the study of plant life on
the isthmus was ona of the important
acts of this meeting. This committee
will have in its work tho cooperation
: of Dr. Charles F. Millspaugh,' curator
of botany An the Field Museum, who
play. And then that display! Could any
thoughtful mother want her daughter
gyrating through the atreeta for the
amusement of the rabble?
The Roae Festival haa no better friend
than the club women of the state. Tbey
are planning to come. to the city by
la: thev have planted and
cared for roses that they may contribute
In abundance; they will give generoualy
of tbelr service and their mean a and
In every possible way give it their help
and encouragement; they believe It Is
a good and proper thing to do and will
teach a love for the beautiful and
Instill a civic pride in tha people of
the entire state, but they cannot In
dorse any feature which tney neueve
conacinntlounlv. will interfere with the
educational, physical or moral growth
of the coming cltlsen.

club women have Just organ-

lied for the next biennial conven
tion, and have sent out the fol
lowing report f rom the organization:
will take charge of the epecimens sent
him and - have them classified and
written up.. ,
On tha platform at the afternoon sea
eloiv were President - Taft, and Mrs.
Taft, George W. Ooethals, tha president
and vice president of the General feder
ation, Mra Philip Moore and Mra John
herman, Mrs. Squires, -the ..wife- of - the
minister to Panama. Mr, Taft was in
troduced by the president of tha Canal
Zone federation as the patron and friend
of the woman's clubs in the sone and

rHT should the Woman's club
Oppose the : participation . of
tho school children In the
Rose Festival uaradeT"
- This has been asked on every .hand
since a resolution to that effect was
carried at the last meeting of the club.
Or course It was not unanimously car
ried, and there - ara always some who
see the reverse side or any proposition,
: and they are entitled to their .opinion,
. but from the standpoint of a mother.
quite independent , of what - any club
may think or vote, there should be but
one opinion, and that is, that the world
has moved far enough alone- to ault
exploiting children at the expense of
their educational, nhvslcal and moral
, well feeing, in order to add an attractive
-, feature to a street parade for the bene--fit
of the town, or amusement of the
crowo.' -
Everything that can be said regard
ing . the attractiveness of children In
" parade and going through their drills,
or of their personal enjoyment of It,
will be granted.
But' conaldering the other side of It,
; flrsUfrom the educational standpoint.
The Rose Festival comes first previous
te the year'a final examinations, at a
season when the child and teacher are
fagged out from the year's work and
when the weather enervates, and retards
. the activities of the children, and to
put the extra burden upon them of pre-
' paring an elaborate drill, demoralises
1 the discipline) and work of the school
the principals and teachers tell us,
and surely they are the best judges.

statement, but we aas prepared to prove it by. the same feen and
women, whose appearance speaks for itself. "At z ycty, small cost
youthful appearance can be restored. We can and do make
sets of teeth over, and reset new teeth on the old plates, and in
this way often correct defects in dental work. We will give an
.examination free. .
; When you have extensive dental work done, vou had , better .
select a dentist who has had practical experience in this branch
of; the dental profession, so that time and experience will insure
t satisfactory; result rather than loss of time and money by in-
icorapetency.A visit to our of flce's -will substantiate all, our state-.
ments "and convince you that ; we are perfectly reliable and able
.to carry dut an operation to desired result. ' ' '
'y;y We could not afford to guarantee experimental work. , Every
tfentist employed in this office is a man of mature years and a
graduate of one of the best eastern dental, colleges. We employ
men who have been educated in the up-to-date methods.
We hold our patronage by giving guaranteed dental work at
lower prices than you can get anywhere. '

quantities and is prepared -to make a great, number of plates.
