secretaries are working in closest sym
pathy with these Industrial clubs, stlmu-'
latlng and organising their activities and
promoting character standards. 1
"Miss Constance MacCorkle, the field
industrial secretary, states that the Y.
W. C. A. is touching a larger group in
the Industrial world than any other or
ganization. Miss MacCorkle's many

hear that she is to be one of the lead
ing speakers on industrial lines at a
conference to be held in California the

under way in all the city associations for

will have been secured.

Mrs. Starrett to ;
Attend Meeting
Of Suffragists
MRS. HELEN KKIN STARRETT
will go as one of the delegates
from the Equal Suffrage alliance of
Portland to the fifty-first annual con
vention of the National Woman Suff
rage association, to be held In Chicago.
February U to 18. Thla convention will
be epochal In the history of the long
struggle for woman suffrage. Its first
convention was called by Susan B. An
thony to meet in Washington, D. C in
1869, when the National Woman Suff
rage party was organized. The avowed
purpose of the party was to work for
woman suffrage through nations con
stitutional amendment As this plan
was first announced by Mis Anthony
and consistently advocated by her
through all succeeding years It Is known
as the Susan B. Anthony amendment.
An Incident of interest In this connec
tion js that it was during a suffrage
campaign in Kansas conducted by Miss
Anthony, Lucy Stone and others, in
1868. when Miss Anthony was for six
weeks the guest of Mra Starrett In
Lawrence, Kan that she first an
nounced her conviction that the true way
to gain suffrage was through , a con
stitutional amendment Here, also, she
first announced her determination to
call a convention and form a new suff
rage party to work for suffrage through
tills method. Mrs. Starrett Was a dele
gate from Kansas to that first con
vention Just 61 years ago. So far as
known she is the 'only living delegate
tr that first convention. It will be a
matter of Interest to herself and her
friends that she saw the organization
of the party; and 61 years later will
see Its close; as. Its work being accom
plished. It will probably be merged into
the National League of Women Voters.
It is a happy coincidence that the one
hundredth anniversary of Miss An
thony's birth, February 15. 1820, will
occur during the convention. It will
be appropriately celebrated.
Another incident of Interest to Mrs.
StarrettSs friends is that as one of the
100 electors of the Hall of Fame of New
York university she has been notified by
the president of the board of electors.
Robert Underwood Johnson, that the
fifth quinquennial election will take
place May 1, this year. It had been
feared by some that the stress of the
great war would interfere with Interest
in this national institution too little
known outside of the Eastern states.
Five names are to be added to the list
of Immortals now recorded In that noble
colonnade and buildings on University
Heights in New York city. The occa
sion will be one of national Interest

Idea Frowned On
Boston mothers- and professional
women- are opposed to Charlotte Perkins
Oilman's Idea, launched at the women
doctors' convention In New York, that "
mothers ought to' employ a "profes
sional" mother to mind their children at
home while they go Into town dally to !
pursue thelr"careers."
Miss Kalherine Shepard, director ot
the Household Nursing association, - Is
emphatic In the negative. "It Is the
business of a married woman to Stay
home and take care of her own Chil
dren," says Miss Shepard. "g"he whole
tendency of the day is away from in
stitutions for children. Those babies"
who have to remain in hospitals through
long months, who are laid on thetr beds
and left to the precise care of trained
science, develop dully. A baby needs Its
mother about from the first to coax K
Into exDresslon. The fault with the
hired mother is that she doesn't lovs
the. children as the real mother does.
You cannot hire affection. And you
cannot develop the child fittingly with
out affection. In fact love of a child
Is quite as Important as right milk, or
air. or sunshine."
Which is an opinion curtly concurred
In by Dr. ' ugene Kelley of the stats
board of health, and Dr. Edith Cave,
physician In regular practice and a
mother as well. " ,
