ones oftenest have tiny dots, points,
crescents, or stars in white thread scat

thousand times prettier II it is made over
silk. and as the material itself IS not

made here for the month of July for rea-
apparent to all. but the assignment
Will be mace to those next in order by
private letter. and we earnestly hope each
one who is assigned a subject will be very
prompt to fulfill it,
We desire each member enlisted in either
the minute or regular corps to stand ready
10 respond promptly upon call. and we feel
sure il is unnecessary to further urge the
Importance of this duty upon any Of you at
this time believing. as co. that each Of
YOU fully understand the solution and the
Importance of always knowing Just what
we can depend upon. Let us all be prompt
70 respond to any call that may be made
oy the president and those having charge
II the affairs Of the club
1 am sure we all feel thankful and fully
appreciate the effort our worthy president
now making in behalf of the interests Of
he club. Amid the pressing duties Of a
lis untiring effort and zeal in the dischare
f his Office, set an example worthy or
IMITATION by any one intrusted with the
interest and welfare Of others.
In looking about us at the apparent sell
ishness of mankind in seeking his own in
Jerests at the sacrifice of principles. anc'
for the welfare Of others. we feel that Of
all times when true manhood was at pre-
MUM 1t certainly is at the present. Let
us strive to cultivate a higher standard Of
manhood in the midst Of all. that 1t may be
seen that a man is a man in the truest
sense only as he proves himself capable OF
standing firm to his highest convictions OF
that which IS right and honorable and at
all times spurn with contempt the idea Of
sacrificing principles for any personal gain
whatever. anG also by refusing to cOmpan-
ionshtp all evil doors by encouragement in
any manner. and thereby cease 10 be par
takers of other mems sins" Only such a
manhood will be the salvation of the coun-
try.
The field is broad for all workers every
where who desire better conditions in life.
There are no avocations but where is often
need for both Improvement and encourage
ment to greater effort for good We, as a
banded organization for promoting more
good individually and collectively, should
be earnest and diligent in our efforts.
While some prefer TO AID by contributing
on subjects of a scientific nature and more
by any means, be lack of contributions
by others treating on the everyday duties Of
home life and living. Surely there are
many whose hearts are in il. and such as
do not desire TO work in the minute corps,
with assigned, subjects, can furnish abun-
6ant contributions Of interest on various
other subjects. Every one should work in
the capacity for which he or she is fitted,
and along the lines they feel most interest
ed in. and all should feel 1t a duty and
pleasure to contribute something to suS-
tain the interest and principles of the club.
Yours sincerely. T II. SWAIN.
