THE LADIES LITERARY
CLUB; A REVIEW

The Ladies Literary Club was or
ganized in 1908 and claims the distinc-
eion of being the first woman's club IN
the town. There were ten charter
members, namely, Mrs. Chas. H. Col
Inns, Mrs. j. B. Rose, Mrs. Don Cress-
we'll, Mrs. G. A. Hamilton, Mrs. VIM.
Haxton, Mrs. A. E. Nelson, Mrs. E.
M. Sly, Mrs. c. w. Story, Mrs. ]. H.
Wood and Mrs. Chandler. The club
now has membership of thirty-six.
We became part of the State Fed
Grafton of Woman's Clubs in 1909, and
have sent as delegates to that body,
Mrs. C. w. Story, Mrs C. o. Anderson,
Mrs. G. w. Shanafelt, Miss Green and
Miss Church.
AS the name implies, the club was
organized for the literary improvement
of its members but has from the first
had the interest of the whole town and
especially the young people at heart.
The library and reading room was first
discussed in this club and by tireless
efforts of some of it's members was
brought about the organization of the
Kennewick Library Association.
We have the following standing COM
mittees; Civic, Home interests, Educa-
tional, Musical, Arts and Crafts, Press
and Membership. Last year the Arts
and Crafts committee was instrumental
in getting the loan of the Copley Prints
and State Art Exhibit for three days,
and through the kindness of the Com
mercial Club were enabled to place them
on exhibition. AS a result there was
much interest aroused throughout the
town and nearly every school child can
tell at least about one good picture. The
club purchased several pictures for the
school, and many homes were made
brighter by the addition of one or more
prints.
Aside from our regular work this
year the club is pledged to assist the
band to the amount of five dollars each
month. The following topics are a few
of those to be studied this club year:
"Social Hygiene" Modern Educa-
ton Methods and Experiments, "Re-
ciprocity," civil Service Reform in
Washington, Domestic Science, "
Interests of the Home" and "Parli-
amentary Laws"

CITY COUNCIL HOLDS
REGULAR MEETING

The newly elected city council
held its second regular meeting
Tuesday night Of this week.
AT this meeting the matter of
allowing the sale of Cream Ale and
other malt beverages, which are
said to contain greater per cent of
alcohol than is allowed by law to
be sold in prohibition territory was
discussed and the marshal was order
ed to notify all who have been sell
ing such beverages to cease at once.
The order was made and all agreed
to quit rather than face a prosecu-
tion.
The matter Of allowing the sale
of certain brands Of cider will prob.
ably be taken up at the next regular
meeting.
The enforcement of the sanitary
ordinance was ordered and also the
ordinance prohibiting the playing
with or catching of baseballs on the
streets.

EXTRA SESSION
is DOING NOTHING

The extra session of the Arkan.
sas legislature is accomplishing alb.
solutely nothing that will be of any
benefit, whatever to the people Of
Arkansas. The members of the
two bodies have been in Little Rock
more than two weeks, during which
time the senate has probably not
been in executive session more than
twenty hours. Furthermore it is
not thought that anything of merit
will be accomplished even though
the assembly should last all sum
mer. Certain members of the SEN
ate, notably President Toney and
Senator Covington, are at logger.
heads with Gov. Donaghey and
anything that is favored by the gov.
error is sure to be opposed by th'
senators and vice versa.
Gov. Donaghey last Saturday is
sued proclamation vetoing 5000
600 in appropriations made during
the regular session of the Legislature
giving as his reason that the senat,
and house had failed co pass a rev.
enue bill whereby a sufficient
amount of money would be avail
able to meet the total amount of tn,
appropriations. T h e governor
states, however that the cuts he has
made will not affect any Of the in

MORE TALK ABOUT
WATER WORKS

Citizens of Pocahontas are be-
coming a little more interested in
the matter of installing system of
water works in town. Quite a
number of ideas have been advanced,
some favoring an extensive system
taking in the entire town, others
contending that a large water tank
put up somewhere on court square,
with pipes extending to each corner,
would be sufficient for the present
time. 1t is claimed that such a
system can be put in. stand, pipes
and engine for $1,000 or $500.
The matter will likely be consld-
cred fully and definite action taken
in the very near future.
