NEW CLUB PROJECT.
Meeting of the woman's Club waiting
List Tomorrow Morning.

Considerable interest centers in the
meeting Of the Woman's Club waiting
list in Salisbury hall tomorrow fore
noon at 1890 o'clock. A number of wo-
men. have been invited to give their
views on the subject of forming new
club, and the exchange of ideas will
undoubtedly be spontaneous and lively.
There is no question that a number OF
the ladies are determined upon form
ing a new organization; 1t is equally
certain that others would decline to
join it if it were formed, on the ground
that it is the Woman's Club they have
been waiting to join, and not any 9TH
er club In other words, they are not
pining to join a new club, any club, but
they would like to belong to the Wo-
mans Club, and expect to before they
die.
If the radicals succeed in organizing
a new society, it will almost certainly
be along different lines from those of
the Woman's Club.
A philanthropic cast is likely to be
given the new organization; not that
the members will knit stockings for
the heather, but they-some of them
would propose carrying the club infiu-
ences into quarters of the city and
families where the blessings Of club
life and the emancipation of women are
practically unknown.
They might share their lectures, mu-
sicales and teas with less fortunate
women, or conduct on broad lines the
extensive work which the Woman's
Club has essayed.
Whether the new club, provided it be
formed, will be confined to the waiting
list of the Woman's Club, and stand or
its own plot of ground with mem.
bership open to each and every woman
who would like to join, is a question.
Already some of the Woman's Clut
members are specializing freely on this
prospect, and several have been hear6
to say that if the club is to be open K
all women, under due restriction, they
will resign their membership in the
Womans Club and join the new or.
ganization. 1t is therefore within the
possibilities that, should the new clut
materialize on liberal lines, there nigh
be a somewhat appalling exodus from
the older society That would be al
entirely different set of sleeves, woult
it not?
More temperate counsels may pre-
vail, however, and the waiting list con.
tent itself for the present with await
ing the action of the Womans Club.
