Perpetual Presidency Idea
Leads to Detection of IA
Pen and Brush Clubites.

For twelve years Mrs. Ernest Thomp-
son Seton has held the presidency OF
the Pen and Brush Club with that un-
broken strange hold which marked the
official activities OF the former Presi-
dent Of Mexico. Now fourteen insurrec-
20, have left the club and formed the
wr,ters' Club, in order 10 provide an
organization that was NOT under the
sway Of the president-whose eiectiohs
have been as continuous as the defeats

E~yeryone was perfectly happy In the
Pen and Brush Club until last winter
Tn election OF Mrs. Ernest Thompson
Seton was taken as much as a matter
OF course as the usual announcement
from Nebraska concerning the Demo-
cratic candidacy. Then n clique In the
club sought TO pry Mrs. seton loose
from her honors. A resolution was In
troduced, dsquaiitying her from serv-
ing IN future.
only fourteen members voted for the
resolution, and II was lost. while the
band still played Hail to the Chiet
as Mrs. Seton came along and thanked
the club members for the uheNpec'e"
honor conferred upon her.
Then the fourteen started a new
deal, with the provision that no on
could serve as president for more thar
three months. thus assuring. in course
