The Woman's Improvement Club of
Glen Ellen held it's annual meeting
for the election of officers on January
12. 1t has been found since joining the
General Federation that this date for
the election is at variance with cleo
tions in other clubs, some confusion
being the result. A motion was there
fore carried to annul that article, and
henceforth have the date of the annual
election correspond more closely with
that of the other clubs in the fedora
tion.
1t was decided also to give a colonial
ball on February %, the proceeds TO
go toward building a clubhouse. lot
for which has been promised by a large
property holder of Glen Ellen.
Great interest was evinced in the lee
ture given by Miss Lucille Eaves at the
meeting of the California Club on
Tuesday last on New York and San
Francisco tenement houses. The pro-
gramme was under the management of
the social science department. of which
Mrs. Sidney Smith Palmer is the chair
man, and it was felt that the club was
indeed fortunate in securing a speaker
so well qualified as Miss Eaves to pre-
sent the subject. Her lecture was Illus
trated by stereopticon views of tene-
ments here and in New York. and it
was made apparent that there was
grave need of a law here governing
the erection of houses of that type.
The last meeting of the Spinners
was held at the home of Mrs. Ernest
S. Simpson in Duboce avenue and was
a very pleasant occasion. The pro-
gramme was in charge of the literary
section. of which Miss Bertha Rickoff

Florence Kelley contributes an arti-
Gle on ''Women's Trades Unions" to the
December Outlook, in which she dis
cusses the action OF the Supreme Court
of Illinois in holding as unconstitu-
tional the statute which restricts wom-
ems hours of labor to eight. She says
that in Illinois woman is citizen enough
to be exploited by the sweat shops. citf-
zen enough to be worked TO the limit
of life and strength, citizen enough to
be worked day and night, Sabbaths
and Saturdays. citizen enough = be
worked for all she is worth and for
very poor pay. although her political
rights as a citizen go no further than
the right to vote once in four years
for trustees of the State University.
In the face of this last-named fact,
the New York anti-suffragists have the
temerity TO cite the small woman's vote
in Illinois as proof that women would
