The work of the clubs included in the
General Federation is as widely varied as
the many sections they represent. Every

FROM WOMAN'S
POINT OF VIEW

There Is no rock on which women split
IN greater numbers than i'm bargains Bar
gain hunting is "a purely feminine pursuit,
and through its influence women pay out
more money and achieve poorer results
than the men OF their household That
there arc real bargains I grant. and that
there are women who know them when
they see them cannot be denied, but for
each of these wise persons there are
dozens of women who spend their entire
allowance on articles that catch the eye
by reason of the price tags and never
look Wei dressed.
Tt IS an art TO be perfectly dressed on
any income. and many women of easy
circumstances never learn it. 1t is some
thing more where pennies have to be ac-
counted for, and it is not surprising that
the Wardrobes I'm these cases are lacking
IN a few essentials. But something can
be learned from those who 90 achieve re-
suits, and the first rule they lay down
for themselves is the Importance Of neces-
stiles.
There are garments and accessories
which we must have to be presentable
We need underwear dresses, coats, hats.
shoes and gloves, handkerchiefs and
neekwear before we think of anything
else. A careful list of these each season,
with their probable cost. viii give a fair

and handlzerchiefs revolutionize a cos
tune. I said touches you note, and they
do not mean an overstock OF any one ar

and other articles, which happen TO be
new and cheap. In such quantities as to
make one sure OF the munotony of their
appearance, and mOnOt0ny is deadly to

There have been a good many bitches
in club work. and no small amount Of
adjustment las been necessary. An early
idea that more charity was needed away
from home than at home had TO be lived
down. This sometimes brought ludicrous
complications. For example a good Bos-
ton woman went down to a Southern
State TO offer several hundred books 70
start library for a club. only to discover
that the organization had already placed
three or four Libraries IN the field. At
the same time a letter reached that sec
tion from the naval prison IN Boston,
asking that the charity Of the South be
directed that way. for the prisoners were
in sore need OF books ana something to
amuse them. The same error recently
arose In relation 10 the child-labor ques-
tion. many well-meauing clubs of the
North and East laboring to eliminate
child labor IN Southern factories, while
Southern women were equally Jealous IN

Federation of Clubs has brought these
earnest workers all together. through fits

OF all sections. and it is now prepared to
offer unprejudiced help in a systematic
fashion.

A few years ago a friendly discussion
arose among the womens clubs of the
United States as to which was the oldest.
This honor was claimed by both the So
rosis, of New York, and the Womans
Club, of Boston, both OF these having
been founded in 1868. But it developed
that the club movement. like young I.och-
invar, came out of the West. The La
dies Library Society, Of kalamazoo,
Mich, was founded in 1872, and The Mi
nerva Club. of New Harmony, Ind, in
1858. Close on the heels Of these four
pioneers came other clubs, though the

BASEBALL TRUSTEES MEET

There was meeting of the Baseball
Trustees held at L. A. Thurstons Of
fee on the 28th. j. M. Dowsett, H.
NJ Whitney and l.. A. Thurston were
present.
In regard to the protest against Ed.
Desha by the Diamond Head Club the
following communication was handed
to Ed. Fernandez:
Honolulu, T. H. August 80, 1907.
p. X. Fernandez, Captain and Man
ager, Diamond Head Athletic Club.
Dear Sir:-The Trustees of the Ho-
nolulu Baseball League duly received
the protest of your company against
the playing of Edwin M. Desha with
the Punahou Athletic Club.
An earlier decision has not been
made owing to the almost continuous
absence of majority of the Trustees
from the city.
A majority Of the Trustees held a
meeting and considered the protest on
the 28th inst They found the facts in
volved to be as follows, viz:
(D On or about March 14th last,
said Edwin M. Desha signed an agree
inent to play with the Diamond Head
Athletic Club for the season of 1907.
(2) On or about April I'd last, he
decided not to play with the Diamond
Head Club and SO informed them in
writing; whereupon he joined the Pu-
nahou Club.
90 With the approval of the Trus-
tees, the Baseball League on April
18th last, adopted rule requiring all
baseball players who were to play in
the league games to sign agreements
to play with the respective clubs, and
prohibiting them from playing with
any other club than the one signed
with.
ca On May 7th the Diamond Head
Club held meeting at which it re-
fused to accept Desha's resignation
and claimed that he was bound to play
with them and could not play with
any other club under the rule above
recited.
(5) On May 18th a game was
played between the Diamond Head and
the Punahou Clubs in which Desha
played with the Punahous, whereupon
the protest in question was filed by
the Diamond Heads.
On the foregoing facts, the Trustees
find that when Desha signed with the
Diamond Heads; and also when he
withdrew from them and joined the
Punahou club, there was no rule pro-
hibiting him from so doing; conse-
quently he had at that time done
nothing requiring or warranting bar
ring him from the league.
The passage of a rule on April 18th
could govern only action taken there
after. 1t had no retroactive effect.
Action which was legitimate and in
accordance with the rules at the time
it was taken, cannot be made basis
for barring man from playing in the
league by the subsequent making OF
rules prohibiting such action.
The Trustees are therefore of the
opinion that Mr.. Desha has not vio-
lated the rules of the league and the
protest of your club is disallowed. /
remain,
Yours respectfully,

ceived a letter from the popular ref
cree, who Is summering in Iowa, where
he has gone in the hope of recuperat-

very good health lately, which has
caused him to give up his active work,
although he says he will continue to
write articles for his Chicago paper.
In his letter Siler comments on the

the outcome. He states that II the
