Woman's Club Matters.
One OF the important events of the
latter part of this month will be the en-
tertainment ITO secure funds Tor the
purchase of books for the county IL
brary. The Laramie people will have
an opportunity to give and receive both
pleasure and profit by enjoying a good
entertainment and by helping secure
good books from which all adults and
children can obtain both instruction
and amusement. When the tickets are
taken at the door, each person will have
the privilege of handing in on slips Of
paper the name Of the book he OR she
would most like to have added to the
library. Holders of more than one
ticket can put in as many slips as they
have tickets, either for the same book
or for different books. Don't neglect
this opportunity to secure the books
you want.
Mrs. Lucy M. Campbell Of Denver,
department president of the Woman's
Relief corps, was a visitor in the city
this week. Mrs. Campbell's object in
coming to Laramie was to conduct the
annual inspection of Custer Relief
Corps. which she found in excellent
condition. The corps received just
commentator for the manner in which
the ritualistic work was exemplified.
After the inspection the corps members
repaired to the banquet room, where a
number Of the G. A. R. veterans were
in waiting and all partook of refresh
ments.

The appended thought, clipped from
the September issue of Self Culture.
will appeal to the genuine club woman:
THE improvement and reform of
its own members Is the first considera-
ton OF the well-organized club. To
make enthusiastic women out Of those
OF kanguid and weary mind. to help to
larger thoughts those narrowed by long
domestic toll. to put to practical use
the accomplishments and charms Of
these of especial grace or especial tai
tains its ideal. The educated woman
gives Of her knowledge to the ignorant
one, the talented lends to her Of poor
Imagination. and those who cannot
give OF their abilities give Of their at
tention. AS appreciation is half OF the
success Of any achievement. 1t must be
insisted that the listening women have
their Distinct value.
"Some clubs are opposed to the ad-
mission OF women who cannot immedi-
ately and brilliantly contribute to the
entertainment Of the members, and
there is no cause to quarrel with clubs
Of this sort. II brilliant and witty wo-
men wish to have an exclusive place OF
meeting. they have as much right to
their enjoyment as brilliant and witty
men, nor are they under obligations
any more than are these men to sur
round themselves with a large number
of quiet and unimaginative compan-
ions, who would not understand the
spirit the letter of their ambrosial
afternoons. But the work Of the large
club with many departments is dis
tinctively different, and the women un-
trained in thought, inexperienced in
study, and in social usages, ought 70
have a place there. The club should
be her school, and the beauty with
which she would become acquainted
in the poetry, the musical, and the am
classes, the habits of systematic
Thought she would acquire. In the study
classes, and the courtesies she would
meet with at the social gatherings, the
tea-drinkings, and receptions. would
make up a deficit in her life"
