Rarely has the Women's Club mad a
program Offering so many practical,
helpful ideas as that of yesterday af-

was an open one. and very large aud

A very interesting paper on The Re

Cedar Rapids, a senior in Iowa State
College, Ames, talked or domestic
science and especially as it might be
taught In the schools. The afternoon
was a delightful one, and because of
the extreme interest to the housewife
each member was privileged to bring
a young mother as guest.
In her paper Mrs. Greene first con-
sidered the public school. its object,
its cost. and its influence. bringing out
among many facts we'll worth knowing
that ours is the youngest child in the
great family of nations, and yet ii is
the only one that spends more money
per capita for the education of it's
children than for the support of its
standing army. The United States
fears no foreign foes, and disarms ev-
cry internal foe. She relies on the IN
telligence and patriotism of her citi-
zens, and spends her money lavishly in
educating and training them in her
free schools

school was forcibly shown in making

child teachable and I will teach him,
but cannot do your work. you can
not do mine; neither you nor I can do
the childs work. We must all work
together to produce citizen who will

wisely argued that the foundation of
the child's character should be laid
before entering school, and the import
ance of the mothers work is impossible
to be over rated. There was no effort
to tell other mothers how 10 raise
children, but many helpful suggestions

given that 1t was good rule when
children had trouble in school to give

work, but allowed too much society,
