Women's Clubs No Longer A Joke
By ADA PATTERSON.

THOEVER attends a convention
W/ Of women's clubs may go
there to Jest, but he remains
to wonder and admire The conviction
overwhelms him that the woman's club
has ceased to be a joke. It has passed
forever out Of the stage Of fads.
Four hundred and eight women, rep
resenting 10000 clubs in the city Of
New York. met recently to unite their
influence for measures for public good.
NOBODY read passage from Browning
and guessed the riddle Of its obscurity.
instead they talked of practical meas
ures to pTecent a recurrence Of the
disaster off Cape Race. Not a word
was spoken about fashion. but every
one was keenly interested in what
would become Of tie families Of pris-
oners, who in the ordinary course Of
events would go to the almshOuse.
me women at the meeting helped to
devise a system whereby prisoners
may work overtime and the profits be
applied TO the support Of the prisoners
families.
The convention Of the Federation Of
WOmen's clubs proved that women have
grown. and that. as Mrs John Hays
Hammond well phrssed it. WON en- s
clubs are the greatest engines Of their
advancement"

as the bullet speeds towards its target

officer-like precision. and. with one
possible exception, the soldiers Obeyed
in the same manner.
women have been inclined to child

But these club-schOoled women gave
every. evidence OF suppression of the

their right OF left Measures were ev-
erything; personalities nothing.
We have heard that club life takes
women away from their homes. Yet
every measure suggested that bore
upon the home held their keenest nj
terest.
A speaker appealed to the tender
ness of their hearts but laid stress
upon the "sOUndness Of their minds
the direction of their needed growth
Women have always had, will always
have. tender hearts Trained mental
faculties are what they need. and this
is what club life is helping them to Sc
cure. II was noticeable that they were
less touched by appeals to sentiment
than by that which is OF stronger,
deeper root-their sense of justice
Women have been accused OF being
natural snobs Yet in their seats Of
honor. grouped about the brilliant
chairman. were women who stood for
their own, not their husbands, achieve
ments
Mllionaires' wives sat in the body OF
the house. but women who work in
shops and factories. with and for the
laborerS. were on the platform.
The chief frivolity Of our sex is ca
price in clothes. Yet this convention
was no fashion display. Neither was
frum perry in the foreground The WOm-
en- were well dressed. never over
dressed. and their habit of individual
thought was shown in the TACT that
most OF them apparently had not oe-
termined the season. A few were IN
floral May attire. Most of them eau
tiOusly wore thick, wintry looking
frOcks.
We have heard that women viii vote
for the handsOmest man Yet an un-
usually handsome man addressed them
IN apology for bad street railway ser
vice and was frigidly received.
The strongest impression this body
of women made is that they are near
" all of mature years. Their faces are
stamped with experience and thought
fulness. Gray hair balanced brown. II
Il did not predominant Because OF this,
what they said was worth hearing, and
what they are doing is worthy Of re-
spectfuI consideration
