Paul this winter, and especially of
late, society would not have had
the excuse for even the few gayeties
there have been. 1t has been a matter
of remark recently how quiet and short
the season is this year. No one seems
to know exactly what the matter is,
but when one takes into consideration
how little of the time we'll known peo-
pie stay in their st. Paul homes and
what an immense amount of travelling
they do. 1t is surprising there
is as large a showing at teas and
theaters as there is. During the last
week there have been a few informal
affairs for one or two well known Wis
iting women who used to live here and
have many friends, but aside from
these the city is very quiet. This week
being Holy week, will be quieter than
any that have gone before.
The women are beginning to talk
about the coming biennial convention
of the clubs which will be held here
one year from the coming month. st.
Paul women have a large task ahead
of them. but thoroughly systematiZed
and with an able woman at the head
of the local committee, there should
DE no question of the success of the
convention. There are a great many
capable women in st. Paul, who have
had much experience in club work and
a conventions, and these Will all have
to pull together for the good of the
city. Many will remember the great
success Of. the G. A. r. convention
here, nearly ten years ago. Much OF
that work was done by women, and
we'll done. While the matter will be
mainly in the hands of club women,
still the interest of the entire city will
have to be enlisted in order that the
entertaining Of SO large body can be
carried through successfully. In a
week or two the president of the fed
GRAFTON and some members of the board
whose names have already been pub
lshed here will be in st. Paul, and
Mrs. j. w. Edgerton, district vice pres
ident, will call meeting to get the
work started before the summer sets in.
