of what they had done and might do 70 culti-
yate
FRATERNITY AND PATRIOTISM,
and to make life better through organization.
The papers read were all good. A. II. Mundt
wrote very entertainingy, and Emmett Searcy,
who could not be there, disappointed at the
last hour, wrote manly plea for the best work
from all.
Luells Monks gave several pathetic recita-
tiOns, which were much enjoyed.
Then came the Progress Symposium, theme
I" The Possibilities of Women OF the Future"
led by Amos L. Seaman, who threw down the
gantlet in a humorous traVesty of ambitious
women, dwelling on the foibles and lOllies OF
the sex. He illustrated largely from The
Heavenly Twins" His paper caused much
mirth, aud many silent protests by the C. G.
girls.
Truth is, Amos expected to draw them cut,
but failed. as Georgia Martin unexpectedly
agreed with him, arguing that wOman's place
Is in the home and that she is hardened instead
of sweetened when she goes out of it.
There was woman present, however, Mrs.
Jeanette Spang, wife of veteran, who spoka
eloquently for the widest
OPPORTUNITIES FOR WOMEN,

in closing the discussion.
Some of the papers of the evening will Be
given from time to time.
