IEAGUE,s POLICY OUTLINED

The surprise Of the day was a brilliant
speech by Mr.. Lane in which he outlined
the policy Of the league and emphasized the
fact that It is today one of the largest and
most powerful organizations of women in
the world: that its success is an accom-
plished fact and It's benefits are given every
day to thousands and thousands of men and
women all over the country: that these
benefits are open to every one seeking So
clal and financial advancement for them
selves and their minor children-beneftts
that can be secured by effort and not by
the expenditure of money: that the league
members are entitled for life to the free
benefits of it's institutions. which include
the Peoples university which gives a course
of instruction by mail to members and their
minor children free of charge.
The Founders chapter. which pays every
member cash dividends for life. and the
establishing of local chapters in towns
which extend social and intellectual ad-
vantages was never before offered by any
organization. he said.
At the close of his speech Mr.. Lane an
swered questions solved many of the prob
lens and met the local representatives from
all the surrounding towns, among whom
were Miss Constance Austin of Santa Bar
bara, Mrs. Kate Flemming of Pomona, Mrs
Katherine Heaton Peck of Compton, Mrs
i. C. Richards of Inglewood. Mrs Agnes
Huse Sunland, and large delegation from
Pasadena and other towns. The members

Mr.. Lanes autographed contribution to the
Chapters Book Of Books is as follows
Your beautiful bungalow home appeals to
me because, among other things 1t is SYM
bolical. The league is merely. the home, mag
hihed, its power multiplied, hence your
chapter is very appropriately housed. 1t is
from the home that the young manhood and
young womanhood gets its forward and up
homes that enables our American mothers
to give greater impetus to that motion, to
enlarge the spheres of usefulness Of their
children, and so give to the world home
force that counts for its good.
Surely, then, home built as a home for
a real family suits admirably the purpose for
which you use your beautiful bungalow. May
it long radiate the best Of home and league
influences"
