The Sequoia Club will be two years

esting entity that passes through the
wobbly period of infancy. and reaches
a second anniversary.
That a club Of such varying elements
should survive the stress Of the teeth
ing and creeping period is evidence Of
its vitality, and likewise is it evidence
Of the excellence of its nursing. which
fell to the hands of a worthy board Of
directors.
There we're wise people who, two
years ago, prophesied an early and pic
turesque death of so idealistic club.
''Tush! Tush!'' said they How can
women fraternize in a club? God
didn't make them that way"
Wen, the best proof Of the matter is
that the women have proved them
selves cIubabIe,. workable and even
companiona ble-just ask the men about
it, and they'll tell you what trumps the
women were in fixing UP things in the
new clubhouse and taking hold gen
orally.
Since the club has assumed the dig
nifty Of a householder inquisitive neigh
bors are asking what it's all about.
Simply this: The Sequoia stands for
the encouragement of painting, sculp-
ture, music and literature, in that a
large part OF its members are expo
nenls or patrons of these arts.
But-now listen,-in no pedantic
manner is this interest made manifest
for the first and vital cause" of the
club is goodfellowship. Now, this
goOdfelloWship twixt men and women
is Of type unknown to clubdom out
here in the West. and therefore does it
hold a unique place.
Then, the furnishings of the new
clubroon8-quite the prettiest, coziest
and simplest furnishings one could con-
jure up, emphasize its individuality.
On the clubs roster are several arti-
sans, and IL was by these clever. chaps
hands that every bit Of furniture was
planned and made, much of ii being
fashioned by Professor Meyer of the
applied arts of the Hopkins School of
Design. and by the Arts and Crafts
people. 'Sequoia" wood. by the way, is
literally used in the accouterments of
the rooms.
And the curtains, who do you guess
made them?. Why, the ladies. bless
them!-they hemstitched and embrojd-
cred every bit of the drapery in the
rooms. supplied the doylies and all the
little femininities that make Of the
clubrooms a club home.
There. you grumpy iconocIasts. what
have you te say about women not being
