 The Gage residenco, always besuti- iul, for the occasion took on an added touch of beauty. The large library room with its elegant furnishings, open fire, fresh spring greens and pink and white carnations, was lovely. The dining room, where . dainty luncheon was served, was particularly astiact- i've, decorated in honor of the day witt our national colors, softened and made lovely with the liIht of many candles. The flowers for the table were whi e and blue violets, which with the red of the candle shades carried out the color scheme of red, white and b ue. The finishing touch to all was the sweet hammered, gracious ladies pres ent, handsomely gowned and distin- gni.hed looking.
 At the close of the luncheon Mir: Mary Neal Stsunton, President of the Tombstone Club, in her usual charm. ing manner, very soon made all at home with her kindly words of vel come. Then introducing Mrs Stew art W French, President of the Arizoni Federated Wom-n's Clubs, who, witf her easy and convincing manner, wor the regard of all present. her talk tc the assembled clubs showing clea judgment, and giving wise counsel
 was of benefit to all After congratu
 ating the several clubs of tn count, on their successful work during tn
 past year, she proceeded to point tn
 way to greater achievements durinl the ensuing year, recommending ths
 the Tombstone club follow along th
 lines that have afforded such encour
 aging results to the Bisbee and Doug
 las clubs. We should, in addition t,
 our strictly literary work, the benefit
 of which are confined largely to ou
 own members, form other depart
 ments, suggesting village improve
 ment work that would resul. in ben
 eft to the community at large. Sh
 cited the efforts of Douglas and Bisbe
 along those lines, the Bisbee clul
 having its several different depart
 ments and working always for thu
 good o! the town and community Of the Douglas club she spoke of thei efforts in founding . park that prom ises to soon be one of beauty ant pictured to us the possibilities here with our abundant supply of fn' water and unequaied climatic con- ditions.
 Following Mrs French was Mir, Bertha E Mosher, President of the Bisbee club, who gave an instructive outline of the work being done by the Bisbee club. In addition to their regu. lar club, literary and social work, they had several departments all busy and all accomplishing much. She spoke particularly of the work in the public school, where they had been instrumental in establishing kinder garten, . manual training school and . room where domestic science was taught, each of these being source of pride to the energetic women Of the club ss well as of material benefit to the school and town.
 Following Mrs Mosher's interesting talk was an informal discussion among those present If the work being done by the club women of Ar,zona, and especially what had and could be done in Cochise county. Many suggestions were given, which as seed sown in good ground, in time may bring forth good fruit. This talk shows that the women of Cochise county, a individuals and ss club members, are becoming more practical and the maj arc looking with disfavor upon the o-nothing policy of other days.
 As we listened to these wise words and kind'y counsel, we realized e never before the work that stands waiting for the helping hand of good women and that with concerted e. tion and good will much can be &C., somplished in the way of improving county. towns and homes.
 This pleasant exchange of ideas and helpful talk was brought to q close by the announcement of "trsin time. !" l UU.. z~xxI hv.. -o.. .>,I --I
