the building fund. I never have seen
more disinterested club work. The
circumstances In which the club finds
itself has much to do with this
aspiring quality Of its work, .undoubt-
edly. The town lacks an attractive
and refined building Of public ma.
ture. and the ladies are anxious to
set the example before the men OF
erecting building which will be a
continual suggestion to them OF the
higher amenities OF life. Good archi-
lecture has its own message. and that
message the Lanier club building
will no doubt convey. The public
circulating library. open to all. is
owned and operated BY the club: the
ladies keeping the library doors open
two days of each week. Casual Wis.
itors to the village are allowed the
privileges Of the library upon the
payment Of small sum.
This little club. with its cautious
assessment OF fifty cents year-for
many of the members are in this
health resort because Of their indis-
positions, and therefore feel the need
OF great ec0nOmy-is doing the most
commendable form OF club work. Its
influence for good can not but grow;
and it is fortunate in having at least
half a dozen women among its mem.
bers who are capable Of filling presi.
dental duties with breadth OF judg.
ment and fine courtesy.
The Chicago Woman's Club has, in
its organized efforts at creating a
building fund. placed itself in the
hands Of the National Association OF
Business Women; the advisory board
Of the WOman's club being composed
of women SO experienced in the man

A discussion OF these needs would be

Gators yet in active work who tell OF
the contumely they brought upon
themselves In their respective COM

best that American colleges had to
give. Now, while the smoke Of bat.
tie has hardly cleared away. and
while the women are congratulating
themselves upon their we'll won vic
tories, there comes another assault
from the enemy. The Leland Stan.
ford university has. at the request OF
its famous patroness. placed limit
upon the number OF women who are
to matriculate at the university.
This act has had its influence all over
the country, Schools which have no

at the University Of Chicago because
a woman could not be allowed at the
head Of so important branch. But
for the truth Of this can not vouch.
The friends Of the lady claim this to
be the case. Were small masculine

this prejudice it might be passed off
with an easy shrug; but the truth is
that many Of the foremost thinkers of
the world entertain the same ideas.

story Of President Harper's visit to

that nothing is too good for the Uni

institution Of learning of which he is

he asked for an hour with the author,
and Tolstoy replied with none too
much consideration, that any time
after ten O'Clock at night he could
receive President Harper and party.
Accordingly President and Mrs. Har-
per and two members Of the board of
trustees OF the university and their
wives presented themselves before

SPASM OF HILARITY SEXES

street so gaily that he touches only the
nigh places, beaming so broadly upon
everybody that the corners of his
mouth are beneath his ears. and invit-
ing every acquaintance he meets to HE

they serve ice water and other things,

man who hasn't been kangarooed. He
is probably a member of the Salt Lake
Hay Fever associa ton.
The Hay Fever association is endeav-
oring to find some adequate way to ex-
press its joy-for the frosts have come
and they know that means the hay
fever must retreat. They are consider
ing hiring the entire Midway and doing
the cOuchee-couchee themselves with
high kicks. But even that is too tame.
and their fertile brains are endeavor-
ing to concoct some more original and
adequate method of expressing their
hilarity. As the former president of
the National Hay Fever association,
Henry Ward Beecher, once remarked:
Hay fever is a sign manual of intel
lect, and consequently the local suf-
ferers may be depended on to devise
something new and startling in the
way of a celebration.
According to the best information,
the change in weather was first noticed
