Women s Clubs.

With the annual meeting of the Utah
state Federation of Women's clubs
only three weeks away. every eye in
clubdom is turned toward the possible
| candidates for the office of president.
Mrs c. S. Kinney, the present incum-
bent, has held the office for two terms
now, and the constitution forbids re-
election. Mrs. A. ]. Gorham and Miss
Ethel Paul, both of them formerly
presidents of the Ladies' Literary club,
are spoken of for the office, and either
one would be well qualified to fill the
position. Mrs. GOrham is president of
the Hospital Aid society. an office car
rylng heavy responsibilities. but one
which allied with the other would be
even a greater power for good. Miss
Paul brings with her possible candi-
dacy record as one of the most sue
cessful presidents of the Ladies' Liter
airy club. and reputation for scholar
ship second to none. The two are not
in any sense rival candidates. their
friends having put them forward for
the office.

Ogden, Oct. 80 and 81 The program.
which is said to be an exceptionally
fine one, is in the hands of Mrs. Led
yard M. Bailey and a competent COM
mittee. The Ogden end has been left
to Mrs. A. B. Corey with her own Sc
lected committee. II is understood that
trip to the Hermitage with dinner
served there will be one of the social
features of the convention, if the wea-
Their permits.
Advance sheets of the autumn num-
Der or the Federation Bulletin show

the large cities is now receiving more
of their attention than ever before. A
circular recently sent out contains an
peals TO the women on tenalf of the
children, especially of The poorer
classes. and advises the most rigid in
spection of the milk supply. The war
is to be waged- all the more vigorously
since the good results Of their work on
