CLUB NOTES.

The Good Government club of To-
peka has sent out many hundreds of
postals regarding the Topeka State
Fair, asking women to become in
terested in it and come with a view to
visiting the G. G. headquarters tent,
taking off their bonnets and staying
awhile to get acquainted. Yes, they
are going to talk woman suffrage, but
there are a whole lot of other things
to talk about, too. They can bring
their crocheting and exchange pat
terms. The Good Government club, in
order to make some money for cur
rent expenses are to have IN their tent
a bazaar and are asking for any sort
of contributions that women mem
bers or sympathizers may choose to
give, such as needlework, embroidery,
crochet bags, aprons, dressed dolls,
canned fruit, pickles, jelly and any
thing that can be sold and the pro-
ceeds applied to buying literature for
distribution, or for other uses. They
also propose to have every day two
programs, one in the morning at 1920
and the other in the afternoon at
about $3.50. These programs viii con-
sist of symposium, music, recitations,
short talks by any who have some
special message. ~

Atlantic City. Aug. lit was a col
lection of photographs taken along the
beach that enabled the committee of
protesting citizens to get the mayor
of Atlantic City to issue an order that
bathers wear clothing sufficient to con-
ceal their forms. Now copies of some
of these pictures are having a good
sale. The crowds on the walk and at
the hotels spend a great part of their
time arguing the merits of the contrO-
versy. In some quarters there is con
siderable anger.
Miss Anna Bussert wears a bathing
suit of the sort to which the police
object. She was turned back by

The ordinance, which demands ankle
length drapery over bathing garb when
it is worn at any place, is strictly
enforced. William Bartlett, the new di-
rector of public safety, is strong for
the order. He was going to the board
walk last week when dozens of girls
fitted by him. Their costumes were alb
breviated. The director hurried back
to the city hall and showed the COM
mittee of protesting citizens an or
dinance that had been passed three
years ago which kept such short garh
from the city streets unless properly
covered.
