board Of thirty women was nominated by
a committee appointed by the convention,
with Mrs. Margaret Z. Sangster, chairman,
and including Mrs. w. p. Hartford of the
Omaha (Neb.) association. Miss Grace E.
Dodge Of New York City was chosen presi-
dent Of the new board. New York was
chosen as headquarters, and most of the
members Of the board were chosen from
or near New York, which for this difficult
formative work is most important.
There were 900 student associations and
$40 city associations represented. Over 400
delegates were present. The basis of rep
resentation at this and for future con-
ventions is one for the first 100 members
and one for each additional 100 members
or fraction thereof for each association.
Omaha has POPS members, which entities
It to twenty-one delegates. Mrs W. P.
Hartford, president, and Mrs. Emma F.
Byers general secretary, were the only
delegates from Omaha
The spirit Of harmony was most notice
able and the gathering of 80 secretaries
from the associations, which met for a
three days conference after the close OF
the convention, was prophetic Of a great
and wonderful work for women, that shall
mean the solving Of problems of many
women in the industrial world and the
bringing Of the spirit OF evangelization to
all women-in the home, the college, the
business world, the factory and the so
cial life. EMMA F. BYERS.

Why not help him TO establish household

NO MORE TELEGRAPH FRANKS
Postal Company Cuts on Dead Head
Privilege, Except in Spe-
cial Gases.

The narrowing limits of the free pass
field were further restricted yesterday by
a decision Of the directors of the Postal
Telegraph-Cable company to discontinue
Thanking privileges after the first of the
year. The big telegraph companies, as
did the railroads before the anti-pass laws
went into effect. carry a heavy free list
but unlike the millions Of dollars worth
Of transportation given away by the rail-
roads in the palmy days Of the free pass
graft most Of the telegraphic Thanking is
for value received.
An officer Of the Postal company said
last night that his cOmpany's action did
rot operate against this latter class Of
business, He explained that the Postal
company had a number of contracts with
railroads. chiefly among them the Penn
sylvania, for the operation Of wires along
It's lines which called for certain fTanking
privileges to the railroad officials. This
free business would not be affected, he
said nor would any other Thanking priv
ileges granted by the company by similar
business arrangements be disturbed. He
said the order chiefly affected the thou
sands Of gratuitous franks issued annually
by the company as a courtesy to large GUS
toners Of the company.
These franks are IN the form OF little
books containing thirty-two stamps, each
good for twenty words with a reply when
attached to a message.
Those who will have most cause to be-
wall the order are hotel proprietors and
managers, brokerage houses with large wire
departments, and others who have the
means Of throwing business In the way Of
the company. No special reason was given
by the officers Of the Postal Telegraph
Gable company for making the new rule
The order took the form Of the following
resolution, which was passed ty the board
OF directors and made public by President
Mackay yesterday:
Resolved, That owing TO changed condi-
| lions Il has been found necessary TO stOT
| all free transmission Of messages, and this
| company Will absolutely discontinue It's
/ free list on and after January I, 1907, and
| no free service whatsoever will be per-
| formed thereafter. Outstanding franks
will be honored 70 and including December

Costs 1000 n word,

At the Franklin inn a literary club OF
Philadelphia, young poet, licking his lips,
said that Conan Doyle was paid 81 a word.
That is nothing" said railroad adver-
Using man. Il knew of a case where a
man was paid $1,000 a word. Our line used
to have at its grade crossings a very long
and complicated sign that began, Beware
of the engines and cars and then this
sign went on with a lot Of injunctions
and warnings that would have taken five
minutes to read.
In number OF accident cases the com.
plainants for damages declared that our
long signs were not clear warnings. There
fore the line decided at last TO get a new
grade crossing sign, and Judge Paxon was
engaged to write one.
THE sign that Judge Paxon wrote cost
81, 900 a word, but It was a classic. II re-
mains a classic. II was as we'll known
among US as Father / cannot tell lie,

Combination of Two Former National
Societies Effected on Evangelical Basis.
PERFECT HARMONY MARKS PROCEEDINGS
Margaret Snngster Elected Chairman
and Mrs. w. T.. Hartford, Presi-
dent of Omaha Association,
Member of New Board.

One Of the most notable events In the
history of womens organizations was the
convention of Young Women's Christian
associations recently held in New York
City.
The purpose OF the convention was the
uniting Of the two great national organi-
cations Of Young Women's Christian asso-
Citations Forty years ago the international
board OF Women's Christian associations
was organized the purpose being to do
certain charitable and philanthropic work
in founding orphanages old peoples homes,
clubs for working women, exchanges for
women's work, etc. AS the need OF young
women became more apparent the name
was changed TO International Board of
Womens and Young Women's Christian
associations and special attention was
given to erecting buildings for boarding
houses for self-supporting young women
and organizing sewing and educational

classes. Employment bureaus were started,
also Bible study classes The work grew
until the associations under the interna-
tional board became we'll known over the
entire country as large boarding houses for
women, with special accommodations for
transient visitors. The travellers aid work
also came into being under this wonderful
board of women and women attendants
may now be found In many of the large
cities Of this continent. This work was
established in thirty-one cities of the
United States.
Birth of the Association,
In the meantime there arose a need for
protection for other young women away
from home besides the wage earners. The
ever increasing number Of girls entering
our coeducational colleges and universities,
the founding OF hundreds Of women's col
leges in our land, created a demand for
Christian influence and fellowship. In ac-
cordance with new conditions in young
womens life bringing the new demand for
protection to young womanhood, Young
Women's Christian associations were or
ganized by the students themselves the
inspiration coming to them from the splen-
did student work Of the Young Women
Christian association. The first student as
ISOLATION for women was organized twenty
years ago; today there are 400 in this coun-
try alone, and these, federated with the
Worlds Christian Student federation, form
fellowship OF the Christian students of
the entire world.

been provided. Young women of educa-
ton and Christian training, known as sec
retaries Of the institutions, have been used
under the boards of directors to give them
selves entirely to the carrying out of the
plans of the local board, TO meeting young
women, leading classes, etc. As the work
in colleges and cities came to be organized
by young women themselves, the need of
wise guidance was felt by many, the result
Of much prayer and conference being the
organization OF the American Committee
Of Young Women's Christian Associations.
This body became affiliated with the
Worlds Committee of Young Womens
Christian Associations. In the years that
followed this organization the lines Of work
became clearly defined and the evangelical
basis of membership the same as the
brother organization was adopted. This
created a difficulty with the old assocla-
tons organized with a different plan of
work and yet doing a work just as neces-
sary but without any basis of member
ship.

For the last fifteen years the two ma
uonal organizations worked under great
difficulties, neither feeling able to give up
what to them was a principle In the
spring Of 1904 Miss Grace Dodge Of New
York offered to be chairman OF an adjust
ment committee il the national boards
would appoint seven representatives from
each board to meet with her. The matter
was presented to both national bodies In
convention assembled and action was taken
that both should make concessions, but
that the evangelical basis of membersh ship
should be adopted for all associations com
ing into the national organization in the
future, The associations already affiliated
| with either national body being admitted
as charter members. The convention held
In New York December and was the
elimination Of two years of great effort
and work on the part Of Miss Grace Dodge
and the adjustment committee of fourteen
members The first days program was
unique In its splendid messages, touching
the interests of association work in the
future. Greetings were given by Mrs.
