"Woman's Press CInb. The members of the Woman's Press club feel that Wednesday night's meet ing was one of the most valuable it has been their privilege to enjoy. . Mrs. Alice Ogdeh told In an amusing way her experiences In placing manu scripts. William Bittle Wells then gave In a vifid, forceful way his practical and helpful Ideas on "Marketing Our Products." He said part of the "A. B. C." of pre paring manuscripts,, the "A" is to pre sent them in a professional way, that is use typewritten sheets, 84 Inches by 6 inches high, that' they may fit the linotype case. The first sentence or page of a manuscript is invariably the index of the story to follow. I To succeed, one should be systematic, I carefully consider what each editor desires. To make money by writing, take up eight or ten different lines, for Instance, practical business ar ticles, farm magazine subjects, west ern stuff, and give a new garb, or fresh view point to some old, hackneyed sub ject. - Simplicity in telling stories is essential. One must prepare the mind for writing and then write the subject out, giving place to new Ideas, which will come faster and faster. "Writing is all inspiration, when one is Inspired, . tbey the impulse, do not let the thoughts escape. Somewhere, some how, all will attain the ideal of self realization. Miss Loia Bain, who is a successful photo-play writer, gave a fine, helpful pftper on the subject, "The Photo-play: Sources of Material." She is convinced that the photo-play Is a permanent thing, but the one and two reel production will become the standard. - -Miss Bain says in writing them one should reflect life as it 1. In Imagination lies the appeal of the film. Cultivate the ability to grasp the material all about. Never throw off alertness. ' Analyze every laugh, study every face. of Interest. ; Miss Bain gave the club a glimpse of her note book headings and her rnethod of criticising her own manu script. It was unusually helpful. Miss Alya French and Miss Leta Dee "were appointed to assist in selling candy at the Federation vaudeville. The Press club Is to give an entertain ment soon. Current Literature Department , Meets.

There are only two acts but the scenes change with such ' startling rapidity that it is almost impossible to follow the program; And the cos tumes change with every scene. There are lots of songs, lots of dancing, lots of excellent Th music of the Follies is not of the patricUlariy catchy kind but this fault, if it is a fault, is more than compensated by the revelry of the piece's threa comedians. First of all is the incomparable Bert Williams, a little stouter than of yore, but still original and inimitable. Then mere is Ieon Errol, who Once called Portland his home and who Staged the production. And lastly but not least ly Ed Wynn whose bubbling mon ologues bring ripple after ripple Qf laugmer. , - 4 Williams and Errol play opposite each other In several burlesque scenes that offer more genuine fun than a bashel of ordinary vaudeville acts or comic operas. It IS In the real comedy of these three funmakers that tne chief merit Of the Follies lies. Glrjles in tights, splendid Scehlc effects, dancing, and the like are merely the shell around tne kernel. - Some old favorites are with the pro duction.

(CopyMtbt. int. kr 7. 6. tiojd.) ; Peter Finds Old Mr. Toad.1 Let all the world with music ring Beneath the magic touch of spring. It isn't often that Peter Rabbit Is ttmly -envious, but sometimes in the jbyousness of spring he is. He en vies the birds because they can pour out in beautiful song the Joy that i In them. The only way he cato express his feelings is by kicking his -long heels, jumping atwut, and such like foolish things. While that gives Peter a great deal of satisfaction it doesn't add to the Joy of other people as da the songs of the birds, and you know to give joy to others Is to add to your own Joy.; So there are times when Peter wishes he could Bing. He was wlsHIhf this Very thing now as he sat on the bank of the Smiling Pool listening to the great spring chorus. "Tra-la-la-lee! Oka-chee! Oka-chee! There's Joy In the spring for you and for me." sang Redwing the Blackbird from the bulrushes. From over in the Green Meadows rose the Clear lilt of Carol the Meadow Lark, and among the aiders. Just Whefe the Laughing Brook ran into the 8mil ing Pool, a flood of happiness was pouring from the throat of Little Friend the Song Sparrow. Winsome Bluebird's sweet, almost plainttva whistle seemed to fairly float in the air, so that it was hard to say Just where it did come frorri, and in the top of the big hickory tree Welcome Robin was singing as if his verjr life de pended oh telling the world how nearly bursting with Jdy his heart-was. Even Sammy jav was adding a beautiful ben-like note instead or his fcsuai harsh ecieam. AS for the smiling Pool it seemed as if the Very Water itself Sang, for a mighty ' chorus of clear piping voices from unseen sing ers rose from all around the Smiling Pool. Petet knew who those singers were, although look as h would he could see hone of them. They Were nylas, the tiny cousins of Stlckytoes the Tree Toad. Listening to all these Joyous -voices Peter f of got for a time What had brought him to the Smiling Pool. But Jimmy Skunk and Unc" Billy Possum didn't forget. They were still hunti Ing for Old Mr. Toad. "Well, old Mr. Dreamer, have you found him yet?" asked Jimmy Skunk, stealing up behind Peter and poking him in the back. Peter came to himself with a guilty start. "No," said he "I was Just listening and wishing that I could sins, too. Don't you ever wish you Next story: could sing, Jimmy?" . 1Bag.' t Spears Burglar With Hot Pin. - " (mitts PrtM Lefeltd Wire.) New - Tork, April 9. Mrs. Dora Catotl found a burglar-in the house.

I've looked every where I can think Of Without finding him, but I don't belieVe irt giving up without another try. Stop your dream ing and come help . us b,unt for Old Mr. Toad." Bo Peter stopped his dreaming and Joined Irt the search.- Now there was 6He place where neither Peter, nor Jimmy, nOr XTne Billy had thought of looking. In ) fact, it hadn't entered their heads- That was In the Smiling Pool itself. They Just ' took it for granted that Old Mr. Toad was some where -on the tank, presently ' Peter came-to a place where the bank was very low and the Water was shallow for quite a little distance Out In the Smiling Pool. From out of that shal low water came the piping voice of a hyla, and Peter stopped to stare, try ing to see the tiny singer. Suddenly he Jumped right up In the air "with surprise. There was a fa miliar, looking head sucking out of the water. Peter- had discovered Old Mr. Toad.
