III DEFENSE OF CLUB WOMEN.
(BY MRS. J. N.

III DEFENSE OF CLUB WOMEN.
 MT. William Riley Boyd of Atlanta rites in The Atlanta News an excellent efence of club women and their work long the line of reform in matters such s child labor legislation. He says m part as follows:
 Ut is true that the mill owners have done vast amount of good in the way of schools. and generally in the improve ment of the homes of the factory work CTS.
 And due credit should be theirs; but in every instance 1t will be found that the inspiration has come from women! What more natural than that ''rhe cry of the children should first reach the, ear of women?
 Tt was so in the beginning, and will be so long as time endureth!
 Seven years ago. having no work to do, I was invited to join in an effort to im- prove the conditions prevailing in the homes of the workers in, or near, our city.
 It was to me a revelation, the little band of Kings Daughters invaded the cottages and became familiar with every detail of the inner circle of the women and children engaged in a large cotton mill!
 We found much to improve, much more that called loudly for change; but what learned and stored away for future use was that women are especially qualified to carry on reforms such as are now un- der discussion, and that men, even the wisest. might we'll adopt their methods!
 More than once 1t was found expedient to get a wagon, to load a family into 1t, and send them back to the farm, which they had deserted under the impression that in the city conditions might be i'm proved.
 Georgia could better afford to sacrifice and finally lose every one of her gallant colonels than she could part with the in- huence of her club women.'
 Tt would be a serious error for any one to think that club woman is a woman with a club
 'So far from that, she represents the culture and intelligence of the communi- ty. and when, as now, she takes up socto' logical question, the whole staff of colo nels may stand and wait indefinitely; they will not be needed"
