Work Outlined (or the Ensuing Year. .The Grants Pass Womans Club held their first meeting in the Presbyterian church parlors, last Saturday after noon, October 1, 11XM. As oflicers were elected at the close of last year the wcrk was taken op with the new oflicers in charge. Mrs. Riddle, Mrs. Wharton aud Mra Day were taken in as new mem bers, with others to join later. A letter was received from tin Lewis aud Clark committee stating that stories from old pioneers would be accepted and sold, the money going toward tha Sacajawca Mono ment fond. The resignation of the treasorer was read and accepted and Mrs. Seevoy elected to fill the vacancy. A communication was also received from the general club asking that delegates be scut to the general con vention, which meets at Baker City in October. The club voted to. send the president, Mrs. . Ora Hemmen way, with expenses paid, to the gen eral convention, and also appointed Miss Goodin or Mrs. Ilildreth as dele gate to attend should the president be absent. A letter of acknowledgement was received from the gentlemen who pirsetited the club with $85 fq the Carnegie Library fond. This money had to be returned on account of the library not materializing. The Calendar committee was re- qui stod to report at next meeting iu order to map out the year's work. The report from the diffeient de partments was as follows: Music department to meet with Mrs. IL C. Kinney the second Friday of each month ; literary department to meet with Mra W. M. Hair the third Fri day of each mouth; Home and House hold Economics and HTgiene depart ment to meet with Mrs. John Locas next Thursday afternoon at 8 o'clock, at which time a practical demonstra tion in cooking will be given; the parliamentary department to meet the first Tuesdays iu t le month. A great deal of interest was manifested aud the indications are that the club will have another successful year's work. It seems that the benefits of such a club have never been fully appre ciated by the ladies of Grants Pass and it seems that everyone who wishes to improve or better them selves should jolu with the club and esecially attend some department. The Literary department will take up a reading course on Gorman Liter ature, in connection with the Uer- man tuusio which will be studied ty the Music department. Everyone should avail themselves of this op portunity presented and study witli the different departments. The next club mooting will bo held the first Saturday in November. Harriet M.
