LITERATURE IN THE CLUBS.
BY Mary B. Poppenhein,
Former Chairman of General FEEDER.
alton Committee on Literature.
There is no doubt but that the
Woman's Club stands for literature in
some form or other, and the General
Federation is pledged to support and
sustain these efforts for the advance
ment Of literature III our national life.
The General Federation's last d.
rectory, 1907. reports 56S individual
clubs, with departments of literature,
this department Of interest leading all
others in popularity with the indi-
vidual club, and this report shows
what the state declarations are doing
along this line of club activity. The
literary clubs will ever remain the
inspiration and terminating center
for other useful and helpful club en-
deavors, for Literature Is ipaxtric-
ably bound up in life." What is
needed In the future is to correlate
and direct these forces and to system
atize and organize them through the
state federation and the general fed
eration's committee, so that the ac-
compliments of these clubs In liter
AZURE may be counted to the credit of
the general federation in the world of
letters.
We all know that literary culture
10 not delegated or material work;
1t is personal force. and must be he
gun afresh with each child born into
the world.
The history of many of the stand
ing committees Of the General Fed
GRAFTON of Women's Clubs may some
day be completed, for we may get rid
Of child labor, secure good food, pre-
serve the forests, establish free IL
braries in every town and hamlet, but
We can never secure the literary .GQl-
lure Of every child, unless we pursue
he ideals of literature. This the In
,idual must work out for himself; no
avs or material supplies can insure
is success. Generation after geenra-
ion finds the need undiminished.

TWIN LAKES ASSOCIATION

Next Saturday the annual meeting of the Twin Lakes Association is to be held as announced i'll another column.
 It will be made the oocasslon for day of sport and funmaking such as brought so much enjoyment last season. The association is an active one and wide awake to the we'll being of the Twin Lakes cottagers both present and future. Its members are energetic business and professional men who are hustlers and who have at heart the desire to preserve the lakes at their best. That they are doing this effectively is evidenced by the work they have done during the past summer in obtaining the postoffics, rail
 way station and other very marked inn provements. The association is worthy of every encouragement and is certainly appreciated by all the campers. It is one of the many factors which combine to make the resort one of the most po- pular in the state.

TWO PRESIDENTS TO MEET

President Taft and President Diaz of Mexico are planning to meet in the middle of the international bridge which spans the Rio Grande river between Fl Paso and Juarez. The meeting will take place when President Taft is making his return journey from the exposition at Seattle He will at that time go down the Pacific coast through Oregon and California and pass over the Southern Pacific through Texas and around to Washington through the southern states.
 The two presidents are anxious to meet each other and talk things over with reference to the business between the two republics It will be as impor- tant meeting in some respects, as those of rulers in Europe who frequently hold conferences. The personal acquain- tance will be as advantageous as it is with the monarchs of the old world.
 They cannot meet any other way very we'll except on this bridge, for President Dias is prohibited by law from leaving Mexico; precedent prevents the president of the United States from leaving his country while in office. If our president goes to Alaska or the Philippines or to the Isthmus of Panama, it will not be considered as leaving the country, as he is not expected to land on any foreign shore.
 Before the meeting takes place on the international bridge, the line between the two countries will be drawn with care and flags will be so placed that each president will be sure he is in his own country. If banquet is served on the bridge President Taft will sit on the United States side of the table and President Diaz on the Mexican side

STAR

The special articles descriptive of villages lying within the radius of THE NEWS territory, which have appeared in these columns recently. have proved of interest to a great many people. Con siderable pains has been taken to present as completely as possible within the natural limitations of our space a des- cription of the distinctive features of each village and wherever possible these have been profusely illustrated with cuts representing prominent buildings and other landmarks of each community. These articles are being read, not only by those living within these villages, but also by hundreds of persons who have never had more than 8 slight pre- vious acquaintance of these places.
 The special article on Sharon appear ing this week was prepared with the same purpose and it is our hope that it present, if only in a small measure, a description of that beautiful and dis tinguished village. such as may do It at least partial justice.
 And yet the purpose with which these articles are prepared is by no means en- tirsly that of giving interest alone. They are also intended to give to all the readers of this paper an idea of the attractive features possessed by the neighboring villages, and this informa- ton cannot but benefit the latter in large measure We who live in this part of the country believe that it has charms which it would be difficult to surpass Particularly noteworty for their historic and picturesque qualities are the group of villages to which we have reference and to publish articles upon these can not but have beneficient results.
 In addition to the above these articles are intended to promote the community of feeling which is already strong bond between these Berkshire villages. Each interested ln the welfare of the others and all dependent upon each other in considerable measure, the better under standing of each other promulgated in this way must prove valuable asset to all.
