The entertainment committee, which
will have charge of the celebration
to be given on Labor day, held a
meeting during the week to perfect
preliminary arrangements. Two or
three hundred dollars will be raised
among the business men and citizens
to defray the expenses. 1t seems
to be the desire OF the citizens to
hold a celebration Labor day as II
has been some time since anything
was doing locally in this line.

This Is what Miss Ida TarbeIl. the
biographer Of Standard Oil and author
Of 'Life Of Lincoln" has to say about
woman's civic duty:
THE most valuable citizen In the
world Is the woman who stays at
home and properly brings up a family
of children.
"a woman's first and most impor-
tant duty to the state is the same as
it always has been since the begin
ming of things-the rearing Of good
citizens.
"There is no achievement, literary,
artistic. what you will. which a woman
can perform that Is Of the same vital
significance to the nation as the rear
ing of a family Of mentally. morally,
physically healthy boys and girls.
There Is no profession containing such
real honor for a woman as that Of
homemaking. And 1t Is the great ma
tional job for the majority of us. Let
Us see that we stick to 1t. We can't
do anything better"
Miss Tarbell's interviewer here in
tSi pOSC4 kAdt IL WAS uUt possiUlE lOT
all women to marry. and she was
asked what civic duties were best per-
formed by the single ones.
Miss Tarbeli said: They still serve
the state In many ways The highest
service that they can perferm fs Il be-
come teachers. Women do excellent
work on boards OF hospitals, reforma-
tories, prisons, asyiums and schools.
Indeed, there should be a proportion
Of women on all such boards. though
there should be men also.
AS factory and milk and tenement
house inspectors women do splendid
service. There should be many more
women probation officers. All state
Institutions taking care Of women and
children should be largely admins
tered by women"
