Vose of Ellis treasurer and Mrs. Arnes
of Norton auditor, at the annual meet
Ing of the Sixth district federation of
women's clubs in Hays City last week.
Cat low s7l1V Of How
City had the arrangements of the meet
ing, which was held in the new State
Normal school at Hays, in charge. The
Saturday afternoon club is the Oldest
in this district, which has shown a re-
1narkable progress in club work in the
past few years. The railroad facilities
in that part of the state are not the
best and most of the delegates had to
drive across country, but the meeting
was well attended, considering the mem
bership of the federation, about seven
ty-flve visiting women being in town
for the occasion. The state federation
travelling art gallery was exhibited in
the Ellis county court house. which was
offered the federation for this purpose
and a comfortable little sum was clear
ed from the exhibition for the new pub
lie library which the Hays City club
women are very much interested in just
now. The amendment to the constitu-
ton passed at Emporia in May and
providing for an increase in the per
l
was approved unanimously by the dele
gates. Mrs. Lee Monroe of Topeka, for
merly of Hays City, attended the meet
| ing.
