Do Not Give For Self GLORY.

Giving is part of the service of the
Muster. The giving OF time, effort and
money are included in every Christians
obligation. john X. Converse, President
Of The Baldwin Locomotive Works, SAYS
in llIE DEI.INEAToR for December.
Tire proper aud best methods OF giving
are those ior the benefit of our fellow
cred,u es. and should be accompanied,
as far As possible, by personal interest
and sympathy. Tl,c objects are number
less, hut The motive should be the good
of others and not the gloriication of self.

Women's Clubs Flourish Best In
Small Towns.
They Can Be Made q Great Factor In
Village Improvement.

The strength of club life is in the little
towns of America, where distractions can
not be bought for a few dollars or found
without cost in the passing show of the
city streets and shops, a writer in the
NEW IDEA WoMAN's MAGAZINE for
December points out. The village worn-
an has made the club count and she has
developed it from small beginnings into
one of the biggest influences of town
life. Village improvement societies,
civic federations. the work of women on
the school boards, all owe their origin to
the little club, where a few women met
together to'talk things over.
The American village can be as exquis.
tie and restfu' a place as the heart can
long for. In the older parts Of the
try it rivals the long-exploited English
town. But there is work TO do in the
old, and more work to do in the new
towns, to create and preserve the
beauty we have to make in Amer ca,
now that our pioneer days are over.
Women have both the taste and the time
necessary to devote to the work, and the
village improvement societies in their
charge have undertaken the cleaning and
restoring of the towns until they shine
like the homes of the model housewife.
Down the long street of the country
village the suinme visitor wandered, i'll
quiring, "Why Elm Streei?' when not
all elm.tree shaded the road.
In another season the Improvement So
ciety had planted a small elm in the
diamond square at the top of the street
to take the place of the great tree which
had long ago given the street its name.
The women of Out country towns are
saving the trees and preserving historical
sites and places. They are making
themselves felt as a power and influence
for good, and at the same time they are
securing for themselves the "outside in
%terest," which conquers one of the most
important of the "Women Problems"
