Fine Arrangements.
Barring the ram. the meeting was
carried out exactly a. planned. No
entertainment failed to be given AZ
the appointed time, no speakers failed
to appear. and In every other detail
the meeting was great success.
When the federation year book Is
published. Paducah will b. given the
largest space In Il. This meeting. as
with most big events, will loom up
larger and larger as the perspective
of il grows with the passing of time
when the delegates get back home
aud tafe a retrospective look over the
meeting. they will realize even more
than now. that IL was the most nota-
bic In the history of the federation.
Some delegates left last evening.
but the majority left al 1885 O'Clock

the middle and eastern sections of
tho state. Until they got on the
train. they were the guests Of Padu-
cab women. md every little courtesy
was shown them. with the city and
the people they expressed themselves
as being thoroughly In love.

Probably the most interesting thing
In Paducah to the delegates was tn
Woman's club building Excepting
Louisville Paducah Is the only mem
Der of the federation in the state
with club building of It's own. The
beautiful interior and arrangements
of the club house here excited great
admiration, and the report of the
Paducah Womans club showed that
five times more money was handled
by It than by the state federation.
