Mrs. Conant, Wells told what con-
situted a good club, work, members
and officers. @ ,.1.s "
James Ramage sang solo and
James Mackay one, at the close Rev.
Thos. Hambly, was on the program
for the subject, "The Club Husband, "
Owing to the lateness Of the nour
confined himself to q few remarks,
while they were Of the humorous
character yet we're quite pointed
and pertinent. He said the ladies
evidently did not have much at
traction for the men as there were
SO few present! The women were
the coming great force of the world.
They were rapidly attaining the
state Of being great orators. He
advised them to study the subject
how to lay, hold of the men for the
next half century or until they
succeed in doing SO. He entertained
the audience very much with his
ever ready aud always interesting
remarks.
Mrs. A. H. Clark, gave an orr
ginal poem which was excellent and
rendered in an easy and natural
manner.
The committee on resolutions
made their report extending the
thanks of the Federation to all who
had so generously lent their aid in
making the meeting one of so much
pleasure and profit.
Thus closed this woman's meet
ing, the most interesting entertain
ing and instructive Of those yet held.
The papers read are worthy of
study by all club members who
after considering them, would be
in position to in part to their asso-
ciates much knowledge and wisdom,
that would tend to aid the house
wife and those dependent upon her.
And would also make ifes surrounds
ings moro pleasant, enjoyable and
congenial. Here we would suggest
that these papers be passed from
club to club for a more thorough
aud complete confederation and
discussion. ~
The attendance by those not in
terested in club work was small,
but il the mothers and even hus-
bands would attend these meetings
they would at once BECOME convinc-
ed Of the fact that a grand good
work was being done for the uplift-
ing Of humanity, among the moral,
mental, physical and intellectual.
lines. These points constitute the
qualities essential to christianity,
good government, more perfect
man and womanhood, happiness and
contentment in the home. These
clubs are not formed for an ex-
elusive class, but for every one.
Their studies are broad and varied.
But the highest OF all studies is
that Of the school or education.
School is where the foundation Of
every worthy principle is instilled
in the mind and heart Of those who
are to rule and govern this nation,
therefore, to have proper work
done in the school, the coming
people will be instructed in q way|
that they will never depart far from
their path Of duty. BY the parents
and teachers coming in closer con-
tact much better results can be OBJ
tained.
We hope the club women will
reach out and draw in their sister
that the work may become more
extended and general along every
line. BY strict observance and
following of the suggestions made
by Mrs. Conant, the success of the
work will be more gratifying to all
and much more accomplished. The
ladies of Worthington done them
selves proud i'm the entertainment
of their guests, and spared no labor
to make the meeting, an unqualified
