Club Women Of the Territory
Discuss Seces-
sion.

The subject Of the secession Of
the womans clubs Of the Indian
from the twin federation
is being discussed. Ardmore clubs
are taking a great interest in the
matter. AT meeting Of the Orio
Club Friday, the matter was taken
up.
The following was read and will
be acted upon at the next meeting
of the club which viii be Friday,
December 4th:
Whereas, there is a movement
divide the Woman S Clubs Of the
two territories and establish a
Federation within the confines Of
The Indian Territory, under sepa-
rate jurisdiction, we feel it our
duty to express the sense Of our
slub in no uncertain terms.
1T is well known fact that
peace and harmony have always
prevailed in the Federation Clubs
Of both territories. The clubs Of
the Indian Territory have always
been treated with marked fairness
and all due consideration BY the
clubs of Oklahoma
eThe Oklahoma Federation has
fostered the clubs Of the Indian
Territory, gave them representa-
lion in their earliest infancy, and
BY a wise management of the affairs
the Indian Territory clnbs have
thus been enabled to expand to
their present proportions.
"Disunion with Oklahoma at the
present time could be Of no possible
advantage to the Indian Territory
and such a separation would entai
needless expense and many pitfalls
| 1t would retard the great work Of
the clubs and stop the progress w
are now making for highe
ideals.
I'VE think it is unwise in any
way to inject politics or the ap
pearance Of the same into our clubs
Matters in the Indian Territor,
are in a very unsettled condition
and should congress in its wssdon
grant statehood to either territory
separate from the other we coul'
then gracefully withdraw with tn
good wishes and help of Oklaho
ma.
"Our interests will be we
represented at the St. Louis bi
ennial by Indian Territory dele
gates, We have been granted am
f ple representation by the Ardmor
+ Federation meeting. We hav
shown every reasonable considers
tion we could ask for, therefore b
it
Resolved, that the Orios cor
demn all action tending to disruT
the Federation as now existing
that in case a meeting OF tn
Indian Territory clubs is held
and it is the wisdom Of this club t
r be hereafter determined to ser
e delegates, they shall be and ar
. hereby instructed to vote and wor
against forming a separate juri'
!, diction; that these resolutions
d published in the Ardmore pape
j, and sent to every club in the Indie
: Territory"

AMERICAN EXPORTS.
Five Millions a Day in the Month
Of November.

The exports Of domestic products
Of the United States in the month
Of October, 1908, averaged more
than 5000, 900 for every day mi
the month, and for every business
dav in the month averaged practi-
cally e, ,ooo, 900 a day The total
exports Of the months, as shown
ty the figures ct the department Of
commerce and labor through the
bureau Of statistics amounted to
500, 37o,c4o. which would average
more than SIS, ,ooo, 900 for every day
in the month and practically 50, 900,
900 for each business day in the
month. From the port Of New
York alone the exports Of the month
were S5I, ,s67,942 or nearly So 600
900 for each business day Of the
month.
This expectation in October, a.
mounting to sf6o, 900, 900 exceeds
that Of any preceding month in
the history Of our commerce with
the single exception Of October
1000, when the total was sI65,289,
$50. For the ten months ending
with October the total was 81 ,422,-
8s7. os4. These totals for ten ano
twelve months, respectively, are
larger thairin any proceeding yeai
except 1901 and 1900, IN which tho
ten and twelve months totals
slightly exceeded those Of the pres.
ent year.
Imports in October also exceeded
those Of any preceding Octobe-
also with the single exception o
october, 1902. They amounte'
to s8r, ,o3I, oos, or little over tw'
and one-nalf million dollars pc
day. The exports were, as alread.
shown. over $1,000, 600 per day

OF this enormous total Of I6
millions Of exports, pr 50, 900, 900
day for each business day, tn
largest single item was cotton
amounting TO 500, 900, 900 Will
the remaining sroo, 900, 900 wa
divided among other farm products
manufactures, the products Of tn
mines, forests and fisheries, Th
high price Of cotton during the pas
few months resulted in a reductio

here, too, the pictures are uncovered on

claims, If rightly framed in the begin
ming, with well-fitting boards at the
back and a closely-pasted covering of
paper, will spot no more in summer
than in winter, and the frames may be
protected by frequent and careful dust
ing. To this house, especially, belongs
that indefinable charm that is the pos
session not only of the seeker after ar
tistic effects, but of the true lover OF
the beautiful. There are china ferne-
ries with carefully-tended plants, vases
of flowers from the garden, and thou
sand and one touches hard to analyze,
each seems such an indispensable part
Of the whole. One would be content to
stay at home most of the summer in
such an agreeable atmosphere.
Expensive, there are DIRECTORS to COM
plain, but the outlay is only for one
year. and its result lasts for many. The
happy change to be noted in these two
homes from old-time traditions has
been greatly admired by those so for
tunate as TO slip within their hospita-
BILE doors, and speaks well for the taste
and economy of Savannah's young
housekeepers.

This is one of the handsomest new
houses in the southern section of the
city. Entering the large central hall
on which all the rooms down stairs
open, instead of a polished expanse of
slippery floor, one steps upon a rug of
fine, woven Japanese straw in cool,
neutral tints of blue and green. At
the rear the velvet hangings of win
ter have been removed and in their
place is a diaphanous curtain, also of
Japanese make, that fiutters in the

ton of GOODNESS that fiuttering things
always carry. In the narrower halls
are small japanese mats. each of some

with the tint of the walls; and at
the windows are short curtains of
flmy, washable stuff, held back so as
to cut off none of the breeze. Win
dows and doors are all screened so
that the pictures may remain uncov-
cred and only the heavier ornaments
have been removed, the effect OF the
whole being delightfully."- clean, cool
and charming.
