PRESIDENTS ADDRESS.

| This is the seventh annual con
yention of the Second District Fed
GRAFTON and everything would indi-
cate that not only shall we have one
OF the most pleasant and profitable
sessions on record, but it portends
great things for the coming year. 1t
will mean harder work than ever be-
fore, but let us trust it will also
mean greater results. Our Fedora
ton is strengthened this year in the
addition of the Good Citizenship
club of Boise and we extend to it's
members hand Of welcome and good
fellowship.
Not only does nature smile upon
us today, but we are to have the
pleasure of enjoying splendid pro-
gram, and the delegation present
would do any ones heart good. And
the visitors, let me mention the Wis
itors especially, we are very glad to
see them, and wish we might en-
courage more Of them to attend our
meetings, whether they are club
women OF not. Herein lies another
work for us to do, believe We
have not only a prejudice to remove
from the minds OF men in regard to
Womens clubs, butt $50 from the
minds Of many. manyspsSxfffn, and I
do not believe we are doisk enough
of the right sort of work in our
clubs. especially the smaller ones, to
remove this prejudice.
The clubs in this district or any
where, should not be conservative;
they should make Y an incentive for
more women to bec,We members, Of
fer inducements. Tive is no one
who cannot learn of us, or no one
who cannot teach us something and
every day we see some WOMAN that
causes us to exclaim; My, what
wouldn't a club do for Dr." But
first let US try to remove his preiu-
dice.
The popular idea seems |yet to be
that as soon as a woman joins club
she then begins to neglect her home.
her husband and her children, and
really often there is excuse for this
belief. and until we can conRince our
sister who is not club member, that
our clubs make us better hdusekeep-
ers and home keepers, there are
many women whom we Want and
should have with us who Twill not
join us. A prominent club woman
has said that the main question be-
fore the clubs OF today is the indus

help in the future.
want to say here another good
word for Echoes, am sure every
club must see the advantage Of such
a paper and hope the few clubs
that are not taking it now will do
so at once, and have it read in the
clubs, and know what other organi-
cations are doing, and will do their
work through it as much as posi-
BILE, it is certainly labor-saving espe-
cially to officers and committees, and
they have club price for it within
every ones reach.
This year names of club members
We're only placed on committees
where clubs did that line of work
This saved some time and labor, and
II our committees served two years
or even the chairman served two
years, it would be benefit to our
organization in every way. Then we
might make it possible for the chair
man of all committees in the dis
tricts to compose the committees for
the State Federation. This is the
wise and commendable idea of our
state president.
Now let me earnestly request you
in behalf of your new officers that
you send dues and lists of officers
and committees, and any material for
the year book as soon as requested,
or even before receiving letter, If
possible. T is such a help
! should like to mention that
among officers, members of commit
tees, and | trust all club members
that harmony has prevailed this year,
II any have felt neglected. ! trust
they will feel it was through neces-
sity, not carelessness, the district was
practically without secretary during
the entire year up to August first,
which greatly delayed the work.
In closing here are few lines
which may help some of US If we
take them to heart:
"He, whose heart is full of tenderness
and truth,
Who loves mankind more than he loves
himself,
And cannot find room in his heart for
hate,
May Be another Christ. We all may be

a husband has come home two or
three times on club day to wretched
meals and disordered house, nat
urally he has 1t In for clubs, where
a little forethought or planning
might prevent this. There 1t is, we
are not trained enough, we do not
know how to pan ahead correctly.
Then why not have more Of this sys-
tematic training in our clubs II we
did We would have more half hours
after luncheon to write our papers or
for special meetings, or the study Of
our bills and laws Take such little
thing as making bed. How many
women can make one properly; how
many could make from SOC to &c
In an hour and half as trained
nurses do in hospitals. Why, most
OF our patients toes would be out BY
ten o'clock when the doctors made
their rounds. Think Of the valuable
hours we waste because we are not
trained in the evelg day tasks Of life.
Every club should have practical
demonstrations in every line Of work
that we have to do In our homes.
Then If we do not do these things
ourselves we can better direct our
servants and we will be making bet
ter servants. The past generations
of women devoted all their time to
their homes and the bodily comfort
of their families and neglected the
spiritual and intellectual. Let it not
be said Of US that we are going to the
other extreme. @
When we can prove to the men
and women that we are better all
around women, because Of our clubs,
then are we going to have more help
and encouragement from our hus-
bands and brothers, and more hard
working and enthusiastic new mem
bers in our clubs.
Now word to our members, who
are only half-heartedly in the work,
If we have any. We can all be work
ers, if we want to- Don't come just
every third meeting and then only sit
by and second the motion. We get
out Of our clubs just what we put in.
If we put in love, hard work and
earnest effort, noble thoughts and
high aspirations, the club is going
to be such comfort and benefit to
u.s. Let us not be idlers 1t has
been said that HE who floats with
the current, who does not guide him
self according to higher principals,
who has no ideal, no convictions, q
such one is mere article of the
worlds furniture, an echo, not a
voice"
Now, one word on parliamentary
law. | know, in the smaller clubs at
least, we do not have half enough of
IT. In an average club perhaps a
fourth know something about it, pos
sibly enough to preside, and here
again Oh! the valuable time that
is lost floundering around trying to
conduct our business in fairly sane
way, when we might be listening to
the beautiful thoughts and fine ideas
of others. Do men belong to organi-
cations and take so little interest that
they do not know what the dues are
or what the rules, or how to write |
an order, receipt or how to indorse
a check. Sometimes | think we do
not know these things from lack Of |
alone
In club life, as any other, we all
like to get up high some
where, and look down on everyone
else, and everyone else looks so small |
that it is comforting We must not
take many trips to such high aIti-
tudes, however; they aren't good for
us.
