iF ANTTHINO vu necessary to
emphaali the earneatnens of
women's work It would be found In

women of th city ar aseistinr
th Portland Woman' club in the en
' tertalnment that Is to be riven March
; 14, for the benefit Of the free bed it
1 maintains at the open air wanltorlum,
rfor women afflicted with tuberculous.
' Not only the I7J members of the
-club are work In r ilk busy bees through
the city, selling tickets, but ao intf r-
eated haa become the general public
lhat many buslneas and society women
-have taken blocka or tlcKfts to ecu
-and the former prediction that the aup
rlr would be exhausted An ye before
the entertainment, la rapidly being
.verified. The boxes and loses are
telnv taken by well known aoclety
Peoria, and the affair Is expected to
1 'be an event In the social circlet of the
eity.
i Lent waa chosen as a moat fitting
J .season to give this benefit, for, while
, .church people generally forego the
pleasure of the theatre, and abstain
from the merriment of danre and ban
1 quet,- they are alwaya glad to lend
- their presence, and ., contribute their
, ( money in the Jenten time for charity,
6 or the work and care of humanity. It
waa felt by those In charge of the ben
efit that the appeal In thla work
-would be ao strong that church people
would gladly embrace this opportunity
, jo make it their annual lenten offering.
Several clubs outside of the city have
- taken blocks of tickets to sell, and It
' la expected that a great many rlub
women and their husbands will come to
, th city for the evenlnjr.
Aside from in desire to attend for
the sake of helping a worthy cause,
there is to be an entertainment fully
worth the price that Is paid for it
Several of the theatres will contribute
number each, from their bet talent
rJocal professional musicians and others
will contribute numbers of rare merit,
and no one need fear they will be any
thing but delightfully entertained. The
program is in charge of Mrs. Cleveland
Rockwell and a - corps of able assist
ants. '
' Mrs. George McMillan, assisted by
- a number of young matrons, and young
; ladles will have a large supply of
r homemade candy to sell during the
evening.
A program gotten up In an unusually
attractive atyle will be one of the
- feature of the entertainment. Mrs. A.
Stalger, and a score of workers have
been busy securing desirable adver
.tlsements for this program, which win
serve hereafter, as a sort of directory
.i for club women when they wish to
know where to buy their supplies, or
wher to go to have their wants grati-i
.-fled. Mrs. J. A. Tlfft. 353 West Park
.f street, heads the ticket committee.
Tha chairman of each committee la
proving herself a most able and wlll-
l"g lieutenant, under tha marked
abllltyeand executive skill of the presi
dent f the club, Mrs. G. M. Gllnes,
who has the entire situation in hand
and directs with tha ease and strength
of a, general.
- It might not be amiss here to say,
1 that the young woman who is now o
(. riving the benefits of the free bed is
t steadily improving and each week finds
ner nearer permanent recovery.

THE EDUCATIONAL COMMITTEE
of the Oregon Federation of Wo
man' clubs haa outlined its work
for the coming two years, and it hopes,
' and believes, that much systematic ser
' vie and work can be accomplished, if
, the clubs of the state will take ad
vantage of the rare opportunity of
fered them by the State University,
through this committee
The Instructors Interested in the Uni'
verslty correspondence study course,
have arranged to send lecturers to those
interested in educational work through
oat the state, whenever time, place and
circumstances permit, at so nominal
cost as to be hardly worth consider
lng. As the club women are the mos
vitally I nt. rented of all people In Cdu
national subjects a npoclal effort wil
be made by the University faculty t
supply lecturers to all parts of the
state, upon any subject desired, or suit
ed to their needs.
The work of the educational com
mlttee of the Q. F. W. C. Is to arrange
for these lectures among the clubs of
the state, and, as It were, act aa "mid
dleman" In completing arnngemcnts for
the mutual convenience and satisfac
tion of the club and lecturer.
Any club, or department of club can,
If it will, have one of the best lecturers
In the state talk to them "as one hav.
lng authority, upon any subject, or
special line of work.
Because your club is small, or your
town not larKe enough to be a cen
ter. Is no reason why you should heal
fate to take advantage of this unusual
ly beneficial opportunity. It Is the de
sire of those interested to reach the
small towns and meet the people who
are Interested, rather than go to the
cities with their well marked education
al systems, and over-lecturod to au
dlencea. This work the committee has
started early, In order that clubs who
will soon be considering their calendars
for 1911, may make a place on them for
some of those lecturers. Those who
still have open days for 1910 should ar
range at onoe for at least one lecture
this year.
As the club women are more Inter
ested, perhaps, In the public schools
and their welfare than anything else,
the committee has specialized upon this
branch of educational work, and would
sugseat that, unless your club Is purely
literary, that the lecturers asked for
be those who will further the Interest
of tha schools and the children.
Professor Alderman, whose lectures
on Adolescency never falls to Interest,
and enthuse both parents and child, Is
Just the one the club wants for school-
house meetings and mothers and teach
ers' clubs.
Professor Schafor could not fall to
make you and your boy love the state
and its makers, In his delightful talks
on historical subjects. Professor Shel
don will propound more school law, of
the most agreeable and delightful qual
ity than you ever listened to before and
will do more, by making you forget
that it ia really a very dry subject.
Professor Sweetzer will tell you of
"snakes and bugs, and toads and worms
an' an' mice," and will show you flow
era In your own garden that you never
dreamed were there. Professor Howe
conducts the department of Kngllsh
classics, and makes you forget the con
troversies of Shakespeare and Bncon in
the art of the works themselves.
Physiology Is given by Professor
Bovard; Kngllsh composition by Pro
fessor Thurber, and what could be more
interesting than a lecture, or study
course on sociology and economics, by
Professor Young, who is doing such
splendid, practical work at the State
University?
There are a number of other study
courses undertaken by the Eugene fac
ulty, but not likely to be of Interest to
the clubs, such as mathematics, en
gineering, etc.
Any club desiring further particulars,
or wishing to avail Itself of these op
portunities, can address tha chairman
of the educational committee. Mrs. G.
II. Pettinger, Oswego, stating aa near
ly aa possible the time a lecturer would
be desired and tha subject
ITHIN a few days tha clube of
the stale will be called upon
by the civics committee of tha
state federation, to give their Interest
and take up two active tinea of work.
The first will be for the club women to
take the lead In establishing a state
cleaning up day. Two days have been
named, or rather suggested, by tha mem
bers of the commlttea to tha chairman,
and aa each haa Its advantage the chair
man, Mrs. William Galloway, of Mc-
Mlnnvllle, Is carefully weighing- tha
matter and within a few days will an
nnunce the decision. She will outline I
plan of work, and It !1 confidently ex
pen ted that every club In the state will
hoartlly Indorse the idea and work It
up f successful finish.
The! second matter to be taken up by
this energetic, committee, I an educe.

Mrs. Galloway has gotten 5 copies ((all
she could procure) of the circular, pub
lished by the home and educational de
partment of I -a Kollette's Magazine, on
the housefly, and has already distribut
ed them among a number of clubs, aski
ng that the matter may, at some time,
be a subject for discussion at a club
meeting. This circular la so complete
that it gives all the necessary In forma
tlon on every feature of the subject; It
hows the cause of flies, their danger
and how to destroy them, but It sum

Each season, for years, we have endeavored to present to the

It is with pardonable pride that we say. If ever tfiere was col

The arrival of spring finds us prepared, as always, to show the
modish innovations of the season in Portland as soon as they
