far she has seen fit to ignore, in writing
of club work, simply, forsooth. because
those federations have decided not to
unite with the national orga nizaton, for
good and sufficient reasons. No woman
is qualified to occupy any position Of
eminence or trust whose narrow horizon
is limited by personal prejudice or lack
of information. That Mrs. Henrotin is
cognizant of the club movement in all
the states no one could doubt. that is, IL
she is possessed of even the most ordin-
airy degree of intelligence.
While in Atlanta last autumn Mrs
Henrotin evidenced wofu ignorance
of the state declarations of Alabama and
other southern states, and the subject
was touched upon In the Atlanta Con-
stitution by an Ala bamian, who was sur
prised at the shallowness or prejudices
of Mrs. Henrotin.
Her latest contribution to the Review
of Reviews indicates that her memory
is as brief as her informa ton is limited.
Still, barring these facts, Mrs. Henro-
tins article is a forceful one from a
club woman's point of view. In closing
she says:
1.-THE success of the general and state
federation is, in my opinion, largely due
TO the effort that this movement repre-
sents the true genius of woman in that
it is constructive, educational and social.
Woman is the practical power of the
world; she has the genius of detail, and
no cause or philosophy appeals to her
which she cannot put in practice. The
church alone is an example of this; the
humanitarian work of all creeds and
sects is in her hands. Until she entered
the field of education as teacher, the
most important period and that which
requires the closest observation, the
most practical handling-the infancy and
youth of the child-was neglected. she
is co-ordinating primary and higher edu-
cation. Woman is rarely a specialist.
The tendency Of education of the pres
ent day is to endeavor to make her one,
but, true to her instinct, she does not
accept this theory of what she should
be, but persists in remaining the aver
age, all-around woman. The federations
are composed of just such women, and
their value to the community cannot be
overestimated. They number, of course,
among their ranks many specialists, but

There will convene at the Tennessee
Centennial, on the 21st, next Thursday,
an important aggregation of women, the
General Federation of Women's clubs.
The convention will continue three days,
and those Alabama women who attend
the celebration OF Alabama Day on the
22d inst, will have an opportunity to
catch glimpse OF one of the most nota-
BILE gatherings of the Centennial The
delegates will represent such states as
New York, New Hampshire Vermont,
Rhode Island, Connecticut, Michigan,
New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Illinois
Minnesota, Wisconsin, Colorado North
dakota, Missouri Arkansas, Nebraska,
Washington, Tennessee, Georgia and
District of Columbia.
As is we'll known and understood by
those women interested in the club move
ment, there are several states-among
them Alabama-that have flourishing
state declarations, which have not been
associated with the National or Grand
Federation. Mrs. Ellen M. Henrotin,
president of the National Federation, in
reviewing club work either through the
newspapers or magazines has d remark
Rble facility for omitting the club move
ment in all states not connected with
the General Fedora ton. In this she evil
uenees a certain degree of pettlness that
should not be possible with a woman,
who has been so conspicuously honored
by feminine club members.
If Mrs Henrotin is big, broad wo-
man, with mind and heart too expan-
siye for the small and contempt BILE sp. ties
of the inhnitesimal specimens of hui
manity, she should look beyond her own
environment and see what women are
doing in other parts of the country.
She is requested to write of club work
because of the official position she occu-
pies towards clubs, and it is unworthy
of any well-informed,. intelligent woman
to limit her account of the advancement
of feminine organized effort to that body
alone of which she is president. If Mrs.
Henrotin would properly inform herself,
she would discover many active, strong,
advancing state declarations, which thus

A Man Who is Tired

All the time, owing to impoverished
blood, should take Hoods Sarsaparilla
to purify and enrich his blood and give
him vitality and vieo'.
This condition of weakness and lack
of energy is a natural consequence of
the coming of warmer weather, which
finds the system debilitated and the
blood impure.
A good spring medicine is necessity
with almost everyone. Hoods Sarsa-
parilla is what the millions take in the
spring. Its great power to purify and
enrich the blood and build up health is
one of the facts of common experience.
