The health chairman of one club dis
tributes literature. another investigates

attends to the placing of health exhibits

This last work is especially taxing. 1t
includes providing audiences with lee
turers and lecturers with audiences. One
committee has collected health library
of practical value. which is available to
any one desiring it. and another has or

towns in New Jersey the clubwomen are

warfare is aoarely begun. there is little
doubt of the final conquest of the pest.

The health department of the General
Federation Of Women's Clubs was organ
ICED in 1906 TO keep step with the grow
ing interest in this subject, but from
the beginning the federation has been
in the front among the organizations
working for the Improvement of health
conditions of the nation. The keynote
of the movement in which the women
of the federation are working IS the
development of vitality. and their aim
is TO increase the power 70 live and TO
work as well as to help cure or even
TO prevent disease. At the beginning
the women OF only one state took up the
work outlined by the health department.
but for four years past every State Fed
GRAFTON has had an active working COM
mittee of women making energetic efforts
in the direction OF the elimination or
disease. In addition TO their other work,
during the first two years OF the exist
ence of the health department the women
OF the federation raised and expended
more than $4,000 for health purposes in
different parts of the country.
II is generally conceded that there is
no philanthropic work in which the club
women have been engaged that has been
more productive of good results than the
movement in the interest of public health
They have co-operated in every reform
movement brought out by the health Off

The state board of health has a travel
ing tuberculosis exhibit. In every town
in which We go first get in touch with
the local women's clubs. We find with
out exception that the clubs lend their
influence in getting the people out to
see the exhibit and TO listen to our lee
lures. We simply could not get along
without the help of the women in this
particular.

their own personal convenience. but from

One of the newer matters to which the
federation Is turning its attention is the
Inauguration OF an active crusade for the
conservation of vision. This crusade is
waging warfare against infantile blind
ness. and In many cities the club women
are carefully studying this matter, inves-
tigating its causes means OF prevention
and legislative measures that might be
taken to lessen its prevalence. This sub
tect appeals especially to mothers, and
lectures on the care of the eyes of
young infants are becoming prominent

proper lighting of shops and factories in
which the employees are engaged in any

being provided under the auspices of the
women's clubs which cooperate with
any other organization working for the
same object.
