Members of the Wednesday Morning
club are once more realizing that they
have responsibilities and club duties.
Mrs. w. c. Mushet, the president of
the club, has returned from her sum-
mer outing at Oak Glenn, in the san
BernardinO mountains last week, ana
has outlined her committees for the
coming year and various club activities
which promise to be most interesting.
The personnel of the committees will
probably be announced next week,

Two important committees of the
Woman's Press club are already max
ing plans for the coming season. The
membership committee, under the
Craftsmanship of Mrs M. n. F. Bridg-
ham, will carry on a comprehensive eff
fort to add names to the membership
roster, keeping in mind all the time the
women are doing the work which
really counts in their own particular
line.
The active membership to this CLUB
includes only women who are actually
writing for publication now. There are,
however, two branches of associate
work which offer some latitude in the
introduction of women with desirable
qualifications, but without the present
pursuit of this vocation required Tor
the active membership.
Miss Laura Grover Smith is the chair
man, will keep the meetings along the
lines which met with such approval
last year. following along the interests
of the professions. There is no inten-
ton of adopting any sociologic work.
as most of the club members who nave
such interests are already allied with
clubs expressly formed for that pur-
pose.
The program meetings of this club
last year attracted universal interest
on account of the originality of their
subjects, and the Importance of the
man or woman presenting them, ana
Miss Smith hopes to keep the standard
of the open meetings quite up TO the
high marks attained last year.
