Mrs Van Vechien moved to Cedar
Rapids, living continuously in this
city ever since. Mrs. Van Vechten
was one of the well known club women
of the state, and was the prime mover
in establishing the free public library
in this city. Mrs. Van Vechten's club
history Is co-eXistent with the history
of club life and work In Cedar Rapids,
She came here in 1877, and the next
year, 1878, became one Of the charter
members of the Ladies Literary club,
the Oldest club in the city. She had
various offices In the Ladies' Literary
club and was at one time its prest-
dent. In the year 1895, Mrs. Van
Vechten was one Of half dozen club
women to found the Women's Club.
Their idea was to have an unlimited
and democratic, club. which should
reach out on broader lines than the Mt
tie club of twenty or thirty members.
In establishing this club, now the most
influential in the city, Mrs. Van
Vechten was one of the most active
and untiring and her interest never
ceased. She held prominent and re-
sponsible positions in the work of the
club and for the past two years was
it's treasurer.

ing OF the Farmers Mutual Insurance
association Of Iowa, which convenes
in Des Moines today, a big fight Is ex-
pected over successor to President
Herman, who has been at the head OF
the state association for over twenty
two years. Mr.. Herman Is accredited
with being the father of farmers mu-
tual Insurance in the state. He or
ganized the first society twenty-five
years ago in Des Moiries. Mutual Or
gamizations have Increased till there
are today more than 100 mutual organ
izations din Iowa in the different coun-
ties. The principal fight OH Mr.. Her
man is on account of his age, which
Is now bordering on so years. He has
made a success OF his enterprise. but 1t
is believed that younger man Will
be for the best interests CT the mu-
tual. Many of the delegates, however,
aae strongly opposed to gushing tha
..old man" and will make fight for his
retention OF the office. The officers
of the state are practically all OLD
men. The treasurer, N. Densnnore OF
this city, is nearly as old as Mr. Her
man. but still is at the front along
progressive Insurance. ideas. There
has been some changa1 OF graft THAT
have created much comment. The
local delegates to the convention,
Messrs William .Knaak At Clear Lake
and Frank Paul Of Grant township are
of the opinion that there has been no
irregular work on the part Of the state
management.
