49,
The time is drawing near for our next l. II. W.
! Reunion ! hope that / may be so fortunate
as 10 again meet with my old friends and greet
new ones this year.
You who have never attended an l. INV.
Reunion can have no idea what you have
missed. Let rs try 10 have our next the
largest and most enthusiastic Reunion on
record.
Aud while we meet in pleasant. social way
| let Us not forget that our objects are Progress
and Patriotism.
We wish to grow and become power for
patriotism. We want to let people know that
VIC are alive and intend to live.
But to grow and prosper as we should We
must gain recognition. and when / read a num-
her of weeks ago that Commandments Chief
Walker had officially recognized the L.H.W. l
felt like saying "Hurrah!"
have few ideas 10 set forth in regard to our
Reunion. ] think we ought to have our Head
quarters as near those OF the GAR. and W.R.C.
as il is possible 10 get them. If we could have
our Headquarters in a hotel, so much the
better.
A public LH.W. reception announced in the
city papers and the official program would
bring great results
We should at least try to have short sketch
OF the L. w. printed with our program in the
official guide book which is always prepared for
the Encampment
wonder what the council is doing about the
badges. ] had hoped before this TO be wearing
the little blue forge:-me-not TO show that l am
member of the L.H.W
do not intend to talk woman's rights, but
lust want TO give another positive proof OF
woman's superiority as an educator over man.
i have been teaching again for few weeks in
a school that a man could not manage, and
can SO much for woman teachers.

PAssTSG IN REVIEW.

Fleeta Smith, lIalsey. Ore. thinks the girls
should not turn sarcastic ia answering Amos
J.. Seaman's humorous criticisms, rs she is sure
be is the most loyal of men to women, young
or aged. new" or "old." The womanly wo-
man viii avoid the faults of the class described,
instead of resenting the mention of them.
NJ. Elite Fuller, Spring Lake. n. Y, says:
. think time-honored &C, Annie l..
Williams, has made shrewd guess in regard
to MT. Seaman. She expresses my opinion
acily.
Can anyone tell me the author Of the poem.
