Woman's Club.

The Woman's Club Of Custer met
with Mrs. Garlock, the evening of March
18th, and as the weather was rather
disagreeable, there was not a large at
tendance.
The club *as called to order by the
president, and program opened with a
vocal solo, rendered by Mrs. Garlock,
which was thoroughly enjoyed by all.
Mr.. Hanley followed with Political
Current Events" which was greatly ap
preciated, as lie gave in terse pointed
sentences the general political outlook
Of tire world. Mrs. Orr gave Social
Current Events" referring entirely TO
the organizations Of the world and their
recent movements. Mrs. Fitch being
absent, the events in the book world
were ommitted. Then followed an able
paper on "W. G. T. IT," its origin and
work, by Mrs. Benedict. The lady, long
a worker in the cause, gave facts and
data that were interesting.
MI. Radford next gave q most ex-
cellent article on THE Salvation Army
No one can realize the wonderful growth
Of this army, or the immense amount OF
good it has done. 1t is unfortunate that
all skeptics on the good that noise
| does" could not have heard this paper.
Miss earns then read a paper on the
Red Cross" gave some account Of its
origin and growth, especially as to its
work in our own country. To become a
Red Cross nurse requires many years
work and study, but when the Red
Cross" is sewed to the right sleeve, all
power of earth do homage.
The roll call was answered by suffrage
items-the few that answered gave in
teresting facts. 1t is a misfortune, so
few members answer roll call with
response if every one would do so, the
club and themselves would be greatly
benefited.
A short discussion among members
and the program closed with a charm.
