The most important even in club life
of this spring, was the conference Of the
New England clubs he'd in Boston, April
II and Il. Six state declarations sent rep
reSentatives, and nearly four nunured
women from outside of Massachusetts
We're enrolled as club presidents or dele
gates. This and the enormous attend
ance of Massachusetts club women
meant a representation Of fifty thousand
women or more, a fact which bears sig
nificantly upon the social economics of
the day, especially when it is recalled
that the subjects for discussion were
civil service reform and social service.
1t shows how positively the Woman's
club has evolved from the plane of qliet
home study to the higher one OF public
service when we reflect that fifty thou
sand New England women are consider
ing the problems of city and country
and of civil service reform.
The New England conference opened
With q word of greeting from that Won
derful woman and pioneer club woman
Julia Warde Howe (whose eighty second
birthday will be celebrated by the New
England Women's club on the 18th OF
May), and another greeting from Mrs.
Charles II. benson of New York. acting
president eof the General Fedora ton OF
Women's clubs. The lieutenant governor,
John L. Bates, gave Il welcome from the
city. and Mr.. Charles j. Bonaparte of
Baltimore and Mr.. Edward Cary of New
York addressed the great assembly
(Which packed the new Symphony hall
to it's utmost capacity on civil service
reform.
The next day two sessions We're held
in Maiden, near suburb. The morning
was given up to DR.. Josiah Strong, of
New York, and Mr.. Rollin Lynde Hart,
who discussed 1.-THE Problem of the
City, and 1.-The Problem of thu Coun-
try" With such speakers and an audi
ence of several hundred of the brainiest
women of New England. this conference
is bound to bear fruit in many ways
and in unexpected places.
In the afternoon of the second day
there were reports from the SIX state
presidenes Mrs. Anna Sargent Hunt, of
Maine; Mrs. Susan G. Bancroft, of New
Hampshire; Mrs. Whitaker. Of Vermont;
Miss o. NJ. E. Rowe, of Massachusetts;
Mrs. Susan +. Ballou. of Rhode Island,
and Miss Mary NJ. Abbott. of Come cti-
cut. These .<'re followed by the report
rom the general federation by Mrs.
Anna d. West, the director for New
England. 1t had been the hope VI Miss
Rowe. whose idea the New England con-
ference was, to keep the "color question"
out of the discussions but as i; has
now come to Ee one of the greatest
issues before the clubs. and delegates
from six states had met to CONFER"
this was found impossible The discus
sion only served to show how unitedly
New England representatives stand on
this question.
1t has been repeatedly stated that this
conference was originally called for the
formation of New England federation.

The Kangaroo Walk" Must Go.

The South Side Woman's club has
abandoned the close-cropped pastures Of
Browning and the wellworn paths OF
child study for greener fields. How wom-
an talks or thinks is no longer the para

question is: why club and society wom-
en- walk ungracefully?"
The subject was debated by the South
Side Woman's club at much length the
other day, and the net result was bunch
of variegated diverse opinions as large as
the membership of the club. There was
no complaint about the way Flossie and
Hilda walk. Their strides from the laun-
dry to the kitchen and from the kitchen
to the dining room were not under cri-
ticism. The presumption is that the walk

stand at such dreadful angles" The
criticism seems harsh and unjust. How
is an angular woman to stand in circles
or curves?-Chicago Times Herald.
