r that line to be able 10 grasp much IF
Emersonian thought.
In regard to the theology of Emerson,
we all know that he was Unitarian,
but If you should ask me what was his
doctrine of the personality of Christ,
should tell you tha. I do not know,
though to some minds it is explicitly
expressed in The Divinity Hall Ad-
dress and elsewhere, but | shall not
attempt to venture with profane steps
into that holy of holes and endeavor
to show the position of SO subtle an in
tellect on the most stunendCuS phe
nomenon of life. 1t seems to me thai
instead of bringing Christ down to hui
manity, he brought humanity up to
Christ and it might be inferred that the
difference between an Emersonian Uni
tarianism and accepted orthodoxy is
not so much that the one denies the d-
vinity of Christ as that the other denies
the divinity of man.
Mrs. Clinton H. Moore. president of
the Homer club. spent week in Boza-
man. returning Tuesday. Unfortunate
ly the clubs there We're adjourned for
the holidays, therefore Mrs. Moore did
not have the pleasure of visiting
them.
Mrs. George F. Day of the Woman'a
club of Butte visited Anaconda last
week anu nedIu teDlOHPl TafkPr IN MS
lecture on Child Stud" before the
Woman's Literary club of Ana
cOnda.
A movement has been inaugurated by
the club women of the city through
which it is hoped a state federation
may be organized. Aside from the lit
erary benefits and the great good such
an organization might bring to the
whole state, think OF the pleasure of
meeting once year to talk over the
work of the individual clubs.
The expense of such an undertaking.
seems to be the greatest difficulty to-
ward successful organization and the
one argument of any moment vet aC-
Vanced to discourage the club women.
What ether states have accomplished.
Montana can. True. on, widely scat
tered towns and high rates of trans
portation are conditions other states
have not had to face. But if the clubs
throughout the state give their cordial
support success is sure to follow.
Mrs. F. p. Holbrook, r~-resenting the
Woman's club of Butte, and Mrs D.
