DETROIT, May S.-The morning session
Of today's conference of the National Con-
gress of Mothers was devoted to the read
ing of reports by state organizers and the
heads of the various committees.
Miss Clarence e. Allen, state organizer
of Utah, gave q history of the Roberts
case and appealed to the congress for an
expression of sympathy that would be in
huential in saving Utah from Mormon
representation in congress.
The concluding session was devoted to a
conference on Child Saving Work" IL
was opened by Mrs. Frederick Schof of
Philadelphia, who said in part:
Railroads are more or less ~sible
for crime among the Juveniles OF the large
cities, Commercial cars are allowed TO ie-
main uncovered or lnguarded in the freisht
yards and thus ehiluren are tempted TO
A law should be created prohibiting junk
dealers t~ratticking with juveniles ana no
child should be allowed to deal with pawn
brokers. IL should be our endeavor to do
away with the temptation that results In
/ would recommend that the best women
of a community attend the session OF the
juvenile courts and thus give the judge and
complainants to understand that the call

Women of influence will thus hold tho
juvenile court Judges in restraint and just
decisions will be rendered.
Mrs. S. w. Heferan. president of the
Illinois Congress of Mothers, discussed the
cooperation OF the home and the school.
She said the reason for overstudy in the
majority of schools was because of the
heavy work demanded by the pupils
parents. In her opinion there should he no
night study until a pupil has passed the
hfth grade. The secretary urged parents
to visit the schools and discuss the work
Of the pupil with the teacher. She also
recommended manual training in all
schools.
Miss Regina Heller of Detroit insure
parents and school boards for not providing
better equipment and more teachers in the
lower grades. She recommended nature
study and the taking of entire classes OF
pupils to the woods and fields, but said
that under present conditions this was al
most impossible because of the lack OF
teachers.
DR.. David Inglis of Detroit talked on
"Children's Nerves" He condemned the
home training where the child was con
tinuaIly subjected TO scolding. Many chill

GRAFTON, Nearly two hours were consumed
In a ~fruitless and clamorous effort to Sc
cure the reelection OF Mrs. w. II. Baily
as president, while that woman was sub
Jected 10 the embarrassing ordeal of pre-
siding during the proceedings because OF
the failure OF the vice president, Mrs. Bark
ley, who sat upon the platform to take
the chair and relieve her.
1t has been evident ever since the begin
ming of the session that Mrs. Bally and
Mrs. Horace Deemer of Red Oak were the
popular candidates. but Mrs. Baily's over
whelming popularity was not known until
the chairman Of the nominating commit
tee announced the result OF an informal
ballot that had been taken for the guidance
OF the committee Mrs. Baily had l57
votesi Mrs. Deemsr, 81; Mrs. Fletcher OF

President I'm Predicament.
With blanched face and lips quivering,
Mrs. Baily faced the convention. saving
appealingly. II do not know what to do"
An outburst OF applause followed, and
when, by vigorous use of her gavel, Mrs.
Baily had restored order, she explained
that she had repeatedly refused to allow
her name to be used, but that within the
last few weeks the persistent 'insistence
OF club women had caused her to alter her
original decision.
"Is your refusal now nnal,' came the
question from the floor, and she replied
that II might not be, but that she did not
wish to be m~isjudged or to have her honest
feelings questioned.
Then came a motion that the house give
Mrs. Baily the unanimous election by ac-
clamation. but Mrs. Baily quickly ruled the
motion out of order, reminding the women
that there was still one name before them
that had not been withdrawn. The next
woman who could get the floor asked Mrs.
Baily II she would accept the unanimous
nomination II Mrs. Walter l. Smith would
withdraw her name. Mrs. Baily hesitated
as a hush fell upon the house, but as Mrs.
Smith was not inclined to withdraw her
name Mrs. Baily firmly and finally declined
the nomination and ordered that other
nominations be made.
Result OF Election.
The election then proceeded. resulting as
follows:
For president. Mrs. Alice C. Fletcher of
Marshalltown. 247: Mrs Walter I. Smith
of Council Bluffs 81; Mrs. w. H. Baily of

Question of Entertainment.
A lively discussion was precipitated a
the morning session by an invitation 4
hold the next biennial meeting at Waterloo
1t has been known by many this week tina
the unexpectedly large attendance of dele
gates, there being 45 present, has some
what embarrassed the hostesses OF tn
city, who, not being prepared, were unabl
to md entertainment for many until yes
terday. Knowing Of this. a resolution wa
offered during the morning session TO tn
effect that the hostess city or tow
be expected TO provide entertainment 10
but one delegate from each club repre-
scented. At once the question was aske
how It should be determined which OF tn
Omaha daily bee., 1903-05-09

two delegates to which each club is en-
titled should be entertained. The possible
embarrassment of such a necessity was
evident to all, and the question arose as to
whether or not such a plan would not tend
to decrease the attendance of delegates,
and so work an injury by decreasing in
terest In the state work. The difficulties
Of providing entertainment for so large a
gathering, even in a large city, was next
presented, and the resolution was amended
to provide that one delegate should be
entertained and that each club should pay
for the entertainment Of it's second dele
gate. Some of the clubs have several dele
gates. and by this resolution all except
two from each city are left unprovided for,
and the amendment and the motion were
both lost.
With eighty new clubs added to the fed
Grafton during the last term and the or
ganization steadily growing, 1t is realized
by all that a DEFINITE adjustment OF this
matter will have to he made soon, but It
is the opinion Of the majority that It should
be settled by the individual clubs.
Some General Discussion.
A discussion of federation finances. led
by Miss Harriet LAX Of independence, and
brief talks regarding the st. Louis exposi-
ton by Hon. w. ". Wilmer of Des Moines
and Secretary F. r. Conway of the Iowa
commission, occupied the rest OF the morn
ing. The conventions remaining hours
were occupied by a discussion of miscella-
neous unfinished business and by additional
features OF entertainment provided by the
Des Moines women.
There will be a meeting of the incoming
and the outgoing boards of directors at the
Slavery at 10 o'clock Saturday morning.
when the place of the next meeting and
some other matters will be decided.
