Club Department.

The club department of the United Workers is often referred to as it's latest department, and so 1t is, in its present well organized form, but the beginning of 1t dates back to 1877, when the sewing schools were estab- lished. and to 1887 when the first work ing girls club met.
 It has come into more prominent mo- tice in the last few years because of its widespread work. It has an eff cient supervisor and a large corps of faithful teachers. It has a club house at the Falls as well as the rooms at 3 Washington street, and there are fourteen clubs composed of over three hundred and fifty children of all ages and many nationaHties.
 The work touches not only the chil- dren but their families, for the super visor visits each child in it's home.
 The great value of this work lies in the fact that it is constructive. The children are provided not only instruc- tive entertainment for their idle hours but valuable training for their future lives
 There seems to be no limit to the number of clubs there could be, so eager are the girls to learn to cook and sew and to join the classes in physical culture and hygiene, and the boys of all ages to form clubs for manual work and recreation, but the work can grow no further, if, indeed, it can continue as at present, until 1t has more friends and more money.
