The citizen. (Honesdale, Pa.) 1908-1914, 1912-03-01

At the call Of Mrs. Helen Merricl
Semple, president of the State Fed
GRAFTON of Women's Clubs, and Mrs
Owen Wister, chairman of the State
Civics committee of the Civic club
the attention of club women
throughout the state is now beins
directed to conference of the Rura
Progress association, to be held In
Philadelphia March IA, Is and l6
The conference is to be held in fur.
therance of civic progress in the
rural districts, and it is expected that
delegates from organizations in all
the counties OF the state will be in
attendance.
Speakers OF distinction and wide
experience will address the confer
ence, and in a letter issued to civic
workers Mrs. Wister says that she
regards the conference as of great
importance and urges the county
vice-chairmen who are considering
a visit to the city to make their visit
at this time, when their cooperation
will be appreciated. The hospitality
of the Civic club is extended to the
visitors, and the well known organi-
Eation will be a general Headquarters
for the delegates.
me OpJetJ OF the association,
which is largely composed OF work
ers on the civic committees OF clubs
within the State Federation, is to
further civic development by bring
ing the outlying districts in closer
touch with the civic workers in the
larger cities and towns. 1t has been
discovered by the women workers
that it often is difficult to secure
cooperation in rural districts. while
IN many instances there is a decided
antipathy and a consequent oppo-
sltlon TO any new movement. Such
conditions have been reported by
suffrage organizers, peace advocates
and social workers, and it is hoped
TO outline campaign methods that
Will carry the civic progress idea into
every section of the state.
1t has been suggested that the
methods followed in cities where the
schools are used as social centres be
adopted and that these buildings be
made conters from which enlighten-
ment shall radiate upon the com
munlties. Questions of immigration,
child labor, hygiene, conservation
and other matters of interest to the
various districts and affecting indi-
vidual communities according to
their need, will be discussed at the
conference, OF which Mrs. Charles F.
Powers is chairman. There are
nfty-two vice-Chairmen of the state
elVlcs committee, under the State
Federation, many of whom will be
present, together with a large num-
Der of workers.

THEATER CLAQUE OF GREECE

The tricks of theater audiences have
been remarkably similar in all ages.
Alciphron, who wrote of the later At

known then, and also young men of
the town who took malicious delight
in Kissing a play off the stage. Theo-
phrastus, who died I'm 2SS b. c.,
sketches among his characters" the
man of superior taste, whose pride It
was to hiss when everybody else ap-
plauded, and TO clap when the rest
were silent; and the annoying person
who would hum or whistle an accom-
paniment 20 every tune that pleased
him. And Aristotle himself refers TO
spectators who brought out provisions
