alone, since there was no club material
within reaching distance. After helping
her all I could, I found that one of her
neighbors had been in cores ondence

there vas no material in the neighbOr-
hood There is material for clubs-lOts
of it-and the very best timber-scat-
tered over Kansas hills and valley so
thickly that wherever you go you brush
elbows with it. and the failure of club
women to utilize this timber is one of
our most serious sins of omission.
The work of preparing our club direc-
tory for the printer is about completed,
and on behalf of myself and Mrs. Nc
DOWell, I wish to thank those who re-
sponded without delay to our requests.
Prior to the district meetings Mrs Nc
Dowell wrote each district president,
asking her for a complete list of all
the clubs in her district. The Seventh
and First printed a directory for circu-
lation which proved most helpful, but
the Sixth was the banner district in
the matter, as its secretary had blanks
printed and sent to each club, with
instructions to fill them out and bring
or send to the district meeting. In con-
sequence of this, the complete set of
cards was placed in my hands before I
left the Stockton meeting. Counting the
number of letters we have had to write
to other districts the state federation
owes the Sixth district a nice little
sum for the postage we did not have to
spend on them.
There are many clubs which will not
answer repeated letters and prayers
and tears and grOans, 50 there is moth
ing to do but list them with last years
officers, and this is an official warning
to them that they must not complain.
But they belong to US, and we love
them, in spite of all.
