ADDITIONAL SOCIETY.

The Salt Lake Woman's club held its
first meeting with Mrs. ]. L. Bowman
5b4 East Third South street Tuesday
afternoon. After the presidents ad-
dress Rev. Elmer l. Goshen addressed
the club on Human Development"
He dealt with the subject on broad
lines, and though he regretted not hav-
ing had time to prepare so important a
theme, he gave q clear and compre-
hensive picture of life from the earliest
form to the present state of develop
ment. He dwelt briefly on the first ma
terial form, the cells, which impres-
mated with the spirit of the Creator ex-
panded into more complex varieties of
life, reaching up to the higher levels
until man lifted his head from the
striving mass. and stood erect.
He spoke of the power of the earliest
of the great charlottesville Egyp-
tians,~then of the Greeks and Romans,
when the arts were cultivated as never
before and reached perfection for
which modern men have striven in
vain.
But he argued good growth of race
could not continue when man was all
and woman nothing.
Mr.. Goshen deplored the fact that
they are many who really look back
upon the past and see there the high
est points of mans development, who
believe that man, instead of being in a
state of evolution, has reached the
noblest achievements and is steadily
retrograding. He also spoke of this
wonderful age. of the many things now
used for comfort. for healing, for
cheering, for making life easier for
women toilers. Women and men are
now beginning to understand what they
are here for. that they are all one plan
of God, with one purpose-growth to-
wards perfection
In closing he advised in this wise:
Give as much and get as much as pos
sible from each day and of all things;
be an optimist if you wish to be happy
