CLUB WOMEN AT
 SAN FRANCISCO
FUTURE OF THE CLUB WOMEN COMES IN FOR LIBERAL DIS
 cUSSIoN BY PRESIDENT.
Advocate Sex Hygiene In the Public Schools and Many Other
 Popular Reforms.

San Francisco, June 26-What the club women of the country are doing today, what they have done in the last four years and what they intend to do in the future, were the general outlines of the valedictory delivered today by Mrs. Philip North Moore, |ot St. Louis. retiring president of the General Federation of Womens Clubs. now in session here of it's eleventh biennial convention
 q believe" she said, sthat the Gen eral Federation now is united as ney- CT before. We have learned to know each other and work together won derfully well The great task of this convention is to live down the gel- eration that still lags behind the times"
 Among the accomplishments listed Mrs. Moore said the country at large had the club women to thank for the pure food law, the preservation Of Niagara Falls, passage of the Weeks bill for the conservation of forest lands and much legislation looking to the welfare of women and children
 For the future, she urged that wo- men address themselves particularly to international and industrial peace, regulation Of the press and the drama, education, inspection of factories and a closer watch on national legislation affecting social and civic life.
 It was tiattering to women that nearly every organization looking for power came to see the federation, she said
 But this joining of many organ izations," cautioned Mrs. Moore, helpful though it may be, brings added responsibility and great ex- pense."
 Her advice was that state divisions of the federation. as well as the ra- tional body itself. hold to the educa- tional purposes allowing departments and individual clubs to affiliate as they choose.
