According to the unwritten law
which now prevails in clubdom, the
president usually has a reelection for
second term. The members of the
Press club have been very glad to ac-
cept that rule for themselves partic-
ularly this year. when a brilliant sea-
son has just closed under the direction
of Mrs. David Chambers McCan as
president. AS this was Mrs McCan's
first year in office. it is highly prob
able that she will be reelected, and
one other officer who will be almost
certain of reelection is Mrs. A. A.
Stowe, whose efficiency as treasurer
has been recognized repeatedly for the
past five years Nominations are by
ballot, the three names having the
highest number of votes receiving the
nomination, and election follows inn
mediately.
Los Angeles club women have
worked with ntelligently- directed en-
ergy toward many reformatory and
beneficial movements. A new York
club woman, Mrs Charles Daniels
however, has started a new movement
and one which might prove of interest
to the women here 1t is to let the
city give dances for the amusement
of the working girls In New York it
was suggested that the dances be
given on the amusement piers and
that committee of neighbor women
be present to act as chaperones.
I'VE don't want fewer dance halls
on the contrary, We want more. Young
people need enjoyment, and should
have the opportunity.
"Work does not mold a girls char
acter," said Mrs. Israes; "it only tires
her and weakens her nerves.
What she does in her idle time,
when she is not working. when she
does as she pleases, is what counts.
In her spare moments she frequents
dance halls.
"Of course they ought to have some
pleasure. For this purpose we want
to have municipal dance halls which
will be real factors in the recreation
of young people, not dangerous places"
