The office rarely seeks the man,
Or The education the boy. 1t is
USUALLY the other way, aud in the
case of the boy it comes to that in
the end that lie must seek the cdn-
cation. But the Police Jury of
this parish put itself on a high
plane of thought and action by its
public recognition of the value of
education, when it appropriated a
sum of money for the first student
recommended for appointment as
such beneficiary. This is a good
chance for some poor, but ambitious

others to art, still others to music. One
may study languages or social science
through them. Few women have time to
make deep study of any Of these things,
but the club work is not heavy. The COM
plete woman could seldom go very far
into any scientific or artistic study, for the
complete woman usually has children to
rear, and it is only after these are grown
up and have left her protection that her
opportunity comes for profound applica-
ton to study.
1.-THE ideal woman should have good
health. 1t is not safe to make too sweep
ing assertions, but there is a temptation
to say that a woman cannot fulfill her
usefulness in life without it. OF course
this is not absolutely true. We all know
of women who have fought life battle
against sickness and at the same time
have accomplished as much as or more
than other women of fine physique. But
this is only by way of execution; it mere
ly proves the rule. The rule is that a sound
mind likes best to dwell in a sound body.
'I like the woman who takes plenty
of good out-of door exercise. She is the
apply herself to mental work. 1 like the
beauty that comes as result of breath
ing good air and plenty of it; of walk
ing in the sunshine; of riding, of playing
golf We have not all time for great
deal of this sort of thing, but no matter
how busy our lives are we should find
time for some of it. The club womans
busy life keeps her going great deal.
and if she would often walk instead Of
yielding to the temptation that a street
car offers she would go home to write her
club paper with clearer thoughts, or go
to her club to read it with more spirit
and enthusiasm"
Mrs. Denniston is not suffragist. Nor
Is she exactly an anti" She rather
shrinks from the issue which she feels
is sure to come. "If women come to
vote" she says 'I suppose l shall take
my place among them and try to vote
intelligently and honestly; but L doubt
If we as women or the nation as a whole
will be any better off for suffrage. 1
don't see why we can't do enough for
the country by educating our boys"
This is what you would expect of her,
for she does not look like a suffragist,
although few of them do for that matter
She is entirely womanly in the strong
sense of the word. She is large of as
fine physique as that abstract woman
whom she admires, but there is nothing
but femininity in her strength. Her hair
is dark, her eyes are big and gray and
frank, her figure is San franciscan. She
is fond of the good things of this life, es-
pecially driving and music, and she finds
her happy part of the year during the
opera season. She says that she is
musician in the sense that she enjoys
music with her whole SOUL although she
does not execute.
There is a broad enough woman for
you, don't you think so?

it, 1t must be beautiful garden in which
she plants and weeds and trains. After
she has passed the age Of school or col
lege life, we have the woman's club which
helps her to do this. All sorts of instruc-
ton is to be had at the many kinds of
The San Francisco call., 1901-12-22

clubs that exist nowadays and are being
increased and varied all the time. If a
woman has an especial talent for one line
of study she can find chance to develop
it in some of our many clubs. There are
those who devote themselves to literature,
The San Francisco call., 1901-12-22


voted herself so steadfastly to
the work for the past few years
that she has earned for herself place be-
side many who have made a business Of
clubs since clubs began
She has already reached the position of
president of the Forum Club. That is do
ing a good deal in a short time The
Forum Club is a very busy one and it's
office Of president means much work.
And that in turn means that Mrs. Dennis
ton is busy woman.
She says that she has no time for so
ciety in the giddy and gadding sense OF
the word. Moreover, she adds, club life
takes the place of society. And here is
point that club women everywhere are
dwelling upon,
"Club meetings take the place of calling
and are an Improvement she says.
women see each other, are frightened
and freshened by contact and to far more
advantage than by the system of a round
of calls, Stand-up receptions and after
noon teas. A social and literary club
such as the Forum is gives women not
only the pleasure of social intercourse, but
the benefit of instruction Not instruc-
tion in a laborious sense: but the kind
that does not overtax busy women who
have many duties at home''
Mrs. Denniston's many duties are not
only at home but abroad as we'll. She is
not satisfied with being president of the
Forum, but is an active member of the
Corona Club. Besides that, she keeps up
with church work, for she is devotedly re-
1igious.
Religion comes first" she says. "The
ideal woman must be true to her belief,
to her church. This is one side of her,
1T is one great factor in her complete
ness
AFTER being religious, she must be do
mestic. She must be home-maker. both
for the sake of the home and of herself
The nation needs homes, it needs homes
where its young voters may be trained.
That suggests my ideas on voting which L
am going to pass by at present.
Besides the fact that the homes need
women with hearts to watch over each
one of them, the women need the homes.
We cannot be complete unless we have
that influence. If a woman is not naturally
domestic she should cultivate the trait
She is unfeminine without it and her char
acter lacks one of its most important
foundation stones. 1 love my friends and
believe strongly in social intercourse,
but the kind of society that keeps women
away from their homes most of their walk
ing hours is ruinous to domesticity A
life that is made up of hurrying from one
party to another, from reception to dinner
and from dinner to dance, is life that
cannot lead to any great and deep happi-
ness.
ITO go on with the ideal woman She
must have brain, and love to cultivate
