The Ladies' Literary club of St
Anthony met at the home of Mrs. G.
G. Bowerman. Our new president,
Miss Nichols, presided, and plainly
showed that she had taken her place
in the harness with ease and de-
termination to show that the year
10000 was to be one of real work.
Each member present seemed to be
at her spoke helping to strengthen
and push the wheels along. The able
officers of the past year were not
tagging because they were no longer
in the harness. but were present, ac-
tive and willing.
The roll call was responded to by
Sayings of Children" Mrs. T. ].
HUMPHREYS gave most interesting
paper on Influence of Home on So
ciety and State" Her subject was
handled with great earnestness and
her remarks were from the heart. Her
quotations were well selected and the
paper thoroughly enjoyed by all.
Miss Harriet Wood gave talk on
Importance Of Habit In Education"
She showed just how thoroughly old
and young become slaves to habit,
and told the necessity of making
those habits good.
Mrs. Hummell gave paper on
Effect Of Heredity on the Child"
Mrs. G. c. Bowerrnan sang two selec-
tons in her usual clear, full voice,
and Miss Cowan Of Chicago, an artist
Of much individuality. fairly made
the tones speak while rendering two
instrumental selections.
