WHAT THE CLUB
 WOMEN ARE DOING

headquarters of what is called the arts and crafts movement" Primarily 1t is a movement to make the most and best of money earning occupations in which domestic women can engage. Among these occupations are rug and mat making of all kinds, basketry, bead work, sewing, knitting and embroidery. The production of skilled and artistic as well as useful and remunerative hand work is aimed at. It is also sought to educate club women and through them the community to under stand what is called In choice Bos- tonese the artistic idea of the fitness of things. This should be applied a nat urally in the making of the meanest utensil as In the conception of the highest artistic creation"
 The ladies are endeavoring to have the public schools educate head, heart and hand" alike. They believe that manual training in the schools, the teaching of pupils to make things. will not only give the children added help in taking care of themselves later, but will impress them with that respect for the true dignity of labor which seems well nigh dying out in this rich republic. The women's clubs in several Massachusetts cities have lately held handicraft exhibitions
 Illinois club women are among the most progressive of their sex even in America. Mrs. M. E. Busey of Urbana, who was last autumn elected member of the board of trustees of the Illinois State Uniersity is a leading club wo- man. The State University trustees are chosen by popular vote, and the law provides for one woman on the board.

FLEA FOR TREES


 MEETS RESPONSE.
 The following is received from an in- terested citizen
 Dear Mrs. de cottes--,I would like to say that the appeal to Montgomery clt- izens for the restoration of our beau tifW trees meets response in the minds of all to whom I have spoken on the subject. The day of it's appearance l ! took steps to secure some doBwood trees which are planted now in front of my home. and mean to follow with setting out other dnwering trees for, already on my sidewalk are elms ano in my yard are magnolias
 The day I ordered my trees a friend asked and obtained permission of the owner of vacant lot adjoining her own beautiful home to improve the appearance of the neighborhood by planting trees and flowers on the lot. Few realize how much Is added to tho price in money as well as tho value in beauty of vacant lots by the presence of trees.
 Many Montgorserians will recall that Captain Meehan, when stationed here. pleaded for the preservation of our beautiful trees some of which were being cut down to make way for progress.
 4 lovely woman who has adopted our city as her home said to me to- day that the first thing she remembers to have learned in her childish geog- raphy about Montgomery related to its magnificent trees, and not to its ad- vantageous situation commercially. or its historic interest as the Capital of the C6nfederacy.
 Continue to urge that tho one thing the Civic League does now be to plant trees Citizen.
