with gardening fad among women the
papers are fairly teemirg with suggestions
of things that women might raise. One
writer suggests that club women devote
themselves to some particular product and
excel in it's production, while another sug-
gests that the southern women take up the
cultivation of orris root reasoning that as
23S 900 pounds of this perfume is imported
annually at a cost OF $4,000, the ladies
might work themselves into a really good
thing" It might be a gratifying enlighten-
ment to a great many people II It could be
ascertained Just how much raising the
club women are doing every year. It is
common thing TO find a piano and other
luxuries, as we'll as many OF the actual
necessities that have been obtained by the
frugal wife from her butter or her chickens
or garden stuff money. The club women
of Nebraska, living as the majority of
them do, in small towns or on farms,
might be able to give some interesting in
formation and suggestions, too, on rails

with apologies that It is perhaps a little
premature Miss Kate Friend writes Of one
of those points In club life that is well
worthy of consideration. 1t is in refer
ence to the club report at the district con-
vertion and the point that lies between
club loyalty and telling the exact truth.
She SAYS:
The district system is 70 bring into closer
touch the clubs whose interest is most
IN common. The condition of the district
Is discussed for mutual information as
well as for the knowledge of the presiding
officer, who in executive board meeting
conveys her message to the state fedora
ton. Now here lies the delicate position
of the delegate. She knows things are not
prospecting in her club; she knows there
factorily carried out since the club year
book began. She knows the constitution is
violated every day, that fines and dues
are not paid. And she knows that what
ever is accomplished is the result of the
heroic effort upon the part of the few
faithful Yet, she has not the bravery to
stand before her presiding officer and the
other clubs of her district to tell 1t. So,
she puts the very best face possible upon
Eliminates them with her ambitious
imagination, and reads a report which
sounds as though it echoed the very whir
of club activity. What does this do? 1t
simply creates a false impression of club
strength. To hear all these reports one
would infer every club in the state up and
spirit and yet there is the excuse for
creating this false impression. No delegate
is willing to cast reflection upon her sister
club woman; she is not willing to say:
I'VE are a club of twenty, all drones eN-
cept four; we average six at each meeting;
our programs are never fully carried out
owing to the failure of members to pre-
pare what is assigned them; we have
system of fines. but no one ever collects
them for fear of offending; we never read
the federation mail because 1t does not
interest our members. etc. -
Just where the delegates honesty with
her district conflicts with her loyalty to
her club is a difficult matter to decide.
Like the family, so is the home club, quar-
rel among ourselves as we may, we always
give the smile of peace to the outside
world. -
1t seems to the writer that club difficult
ties should be discussed just as freely as
are club successes told. Experience is the
wise counsellor and II the delegates told
their troubles in heart to heart conference,
perhaps someone who had found way out
Of that same difficulty might send that
delegate back to her club prepared TO bet
ter the condition Of affairs At least there
is food in this subject fer reflection.

Powerless as women are accused Of being
TO resist the designs Of the milliner 1t is
a fact, nevertheless, that these same
women are rebelling more and more against
wearing hats when they are not absolutely
necessary as a protection or a formality.
1t is no uncommon sight nowadays to see
women even on the downtown streets in
summer without their hats, while 1t is safe
10 estimate that two-thirds of the well
dressed women who go out informally OF
an evening wear only a veil over their
heads and these to keep their hair from
being blown into confusion. The Benson
or the Hanscom Park cars afford every
day evidence that the summer hat. no
matter how charming a creation 1t may
be, has become secondary to comfort un-
less 1t IS necessary.

Medical and Ordnance Department
Want More Cash.
Washington, Dec. 2.-Strong effort
will be made at the coming session
of congress to obtain more money for
the medical and ordnance departments
of the army that the officers in these
departments may have increased rank.
The medical department has been
especially active since the last session
Of congress in making its needs known
and Representative Hull chairman OF
the house committee on military af-
fairs, says civilian doctors throughout
the United States, have taken up the
case Of the army surgeons and are ex-
erting great influence to gain the con
cessions sought by the medical depart
ment. Under present conditions the
medical department of the army feels
it's handicap by the provision that a
doctor entering the army cannot attain
tle rank of captain for five years. In
the navy only three years is required
for the same advancement. Like the
medical department the ordnance de-
partment says it IS unable to afford
sufficient rank to applicants to make
it's work attractive. The ordnance
department is also anxious to have
legislation which will shorten from
four years to one year the time which
ordinance officers must serve in the
line wnan transferred from ordinace
duty

Preacher Wants To Do Away with Dog.

who year ago Fioleltly attacked Btsl-
op Potter. leturned here last night to
eXpound new cut Tl.ch he calls the
new liberal movement in religion" He
says it was success in Georgia and
tomorrow night he will tell what it is
at public meeting which he has
called.
Dr. Dillingham; said last night that
Ae would take action against Bishop
Potter before both the law courts and
the ecclesiastical courts, charging him
with receiving moneys under false pre-
tences. In explaining this action, the
vicar said:
Il have not given up my fight
against ritualism in our church, not
witlstanding the fact that l am now
promulgating a new religious move
ment to do away with dogma and rit-
ualism I want to see ritualism driv-
en- from the sanctuaries and our churct
and will always work to that end. Now
it should be known that everything in
the Protestant Episcopal church at
his consecration takes an oath to pre-
serve the church along the lines it
was founded. 1t was founded as
protest against this very thing l am
fghting-high churcnism, ritualism,
confessionals and the like. Bishop Pot
ter, l maintain, has violated this pledge
and in receiving money to keep such
churches as St Mary the Virgin, st.
Andrews and others, takes such
moneys under false pretence."
