A shortage OF business was noticeable ct
the Monday afternoon meeting OF the
woman's club and to I'LL in the time allot-
ted for the transaction Of the clubs
affairs, a number Of matters OF more or less
consequence were introduced. chief among
which was the color question. Its intro
duction was evidently a surprise to the
majority, but the conclusion OF the incident
was q greater surprise and seemed to tndi-
cate either an unwillingness to so on
record in the matter or an objectionable
ignorance OF the problem that threatens to
disrupt the national organization. 1t was
brought up as a suggestion that the matter
be talked over by the m while there
was ample time for It. and before any mo-
ton was made one way or the other. Its
introducer urged that 1t was to be the
great issue Of the coming biennial and that
the Omaha club should not be behind other
large clubs Of the country, but should ais
cuss 1t freely in justice to the members
and delegates. She spoke Of the matter as
having been touched upon from both sides
az the Wayne meeting, and urged that
the largest club OF the state should have
an opinion on so vital q question, especially
as the executive council OF the @. +. w. G.
ito which the matter was referred after the
Milwaukee incident) had referred II back to
the individual clubs for their opinions.
To this the president Of the state fedora
ton, Mrs. Draper Smith, replied In sub
stance that there was no necessity Of the
question being settled In the individual
clubs. There was another method of at
tanning this same end, she said. which was
more direct. The executive committee At q
recent meeting had asked that the two
states having introduced amendments to
the national constitution on the subject OF
'eolor" appoint committees to confer and
harmonic their conflicting propositions.
The report Of such a Joint committee, she
thought. would put the matter in better
shape to be acted upon.
-his statement seemed to be ambiguous.
II misled ths women to believe that there
was no necessity Of an opinion from the
individual organizations, though Il was we'll
known that the Onncial national organ has
made repeated requests to the contrary.
H. lie also known that there Is a very evi-
dent trend toward q Ina settlement BY
referring It TO the next executive board II
the @. +. w. C., to which politicians OF
that organization propose electing women
will decide Il as they wish
As there was no response to this, another
member urged that the women express
themselves and instruct their delegates
that they might properly represent them at
Los Angeles, but even this brought M re-
Spouse until the introducer Of the subject
arose and said she had been warned not 10
bring the color question up In the club, that
Il was q dangerous thing to discuss. But
she seid, IF We must falter on these great
reformatory questions because We are
afraid Of them. then Ne are not living up

SERMON sY Or. HARMON OF DAVID CITY
Preacher Says Men and womea Give
Too Much Confederation 20 AP-
and Not Enough
to Real Character.

TIE Young Peoples Society Of Christian
Endeavor was q years old yesterday, and
in honor OF the occasion the local societies
OF Omaha and South Omaha, with n repre-
sentation OF about 200, gathered at the
First Congregational church where cere-
monies commemorative Of the day were OBJ
served.
An excellent program was given, open
ing with the repetition Of the Endeavor
pledge by the members. In his opening
prayer Rev. Hubert G.. Herring referred
touchingly to Father Endeavorer"
Clark, the founder Of the society who IL
at present active In the service OF the So
ciety. Rev. T. v. Moore of the Vest
minister Presbyterian church read the
scripture lesson, being the sermon on the
Mount and the twelfth chapter Of the
epistle to the Romans-illustrating Christ
Ian character and Christian eudeavOr.
The anniversary sermon was preached
by Rev. H. H. Harmon OF David City. who
took as his topic Goods Call to Young
People" Mr.. Harmon was the president
Of the state association Of societies last
year and took q leading part in the last
convention, where he made many friends
among the members Of the local societies.
Too Much for show.
DR.. Harmon said men and women con-
slider appearances too much, but young
people should early realize that where
man judges the outward appearance God
judges the actual person. In the rush after
the almighty dollar we are likely to dis
regard our higher duties. Many who pro-
fess to be the followers Of God forget the
true end of life. The man who has no
ideal higher than the accumulation Of
wealth has no power TO appreciate riches.
If we are to lift men to higher planes we
must stand upon those higher planes, II
we are to go forth and conquer we must
go as men and women Of true worth and
character.
q. G. Jones. vice president Of the city
union, who presided at the meeting, called
the roll of societies present and awarded a
banner to the society Of the South Omaha
Christian church for having the largest
percentage Of its membership present, with
fourteen members In the church out Of q
total membership OF twenty-four.
A collection was taken up for the work OF
the city union and a ten-minute consecra-
tion service, led by Rev. H. H. Harmon.
