Third District WOman's Club News Notes
MRS. J. B. WALL, Reporter

The Fitzgerrld Woman's Club
held its first meeting of the year
Wednesday afternoon, Oct. first
at the home of Mrs. j. G. Bush.
The greatest number of the
members responded to roll call,
only few were absent. Inst cad
of the usual Present" response
each woman gave some choice
cleaning from her summer read
ing. The club had the pleasure of
welcoming a numoer ofyoungladies
into its membership. Our new
president, Mrs. Thos. j. Dickey,
presided with charm and grace
and presented a comprehensive
outline of the years work for the
club.
Mrs. j. j. Wall was chosen dele
gate to the CuthbertconVention and
Mrs. Lon Dickey alternate. The
clubs appropriation remained un-
changed.
The thing that was of most i'm
portance at the meeting was the
selection and lease of Club Home
for the year. The women feel they
have imposed upon the various
mems organizations of the town
for place of meeting long enough
BY nature women crave a house to
keep and band of women has the
same craving for its organization.
This home is beautiful little cot
tage that our club architect Mrs.
j. B. Seanor, built over this sum-
mer and it is located Oh "Club
Avenue" quite central location
and In every way appeals to the
home loving and home making
spirit of the club women. A COM
mittee to look after the furnishing
of the Club home was appointed
by the president. The next impor-
tant feature of year will be Grand
mothers Day which the social com.
nittee has in charge. Mrs. Kicker
resigned from the Craftsmanship of
the committee on account of her
fathers serious condition and Mrs.
j. E. Turner was appointed to take
Mrs. Ricker's place.
A call meeting of the executive
board of the Georgia federation
of Women's Clubs was held in At.

ouINCY,s CHANCE.

The following tribute is paid to Barre
enterprise by Quincy granite manu-
facturer writing in Saturdays issue of
the Quincy Ledger concerning the prob
lem of transportation:
Right here in Quincy where we have
the water front at our disposal, we show
the utmost indifference and neglect and
allow matters TO drift along in the same
old way, remaining absolutely at the
mercy of the railroad company for our
transportation.
How long DO you suppose Barre would
remain inactive. if she had these possi-
bilities of water transportation at her
commands She would have taken ad-
vantage of them years ago and appro-
priated every natural advantage which
she could command and would have been
enjoying the fruits of her enterprise
just what Barre would do if il were
in Quincy's position is merely eonjectur-
al, but very often Barre has wished that
an arm of the sea ran up TO its great
granite deposits, believing that the trans
portation problem would be easily solved
in that case. Quincy. therefore, seems
to have a fine chance by virtue Of its
location. just as the Quincy manufactur-
er states.

HAD NARROW ESCAPE
FROM TAX IMPOSITION
Suffragettes Who Seized "The Monu-
Ment" in London Nearly Taxed
Under the Inhabited House Law.

London, May l9.-The two militant
suffragettes, who recently captured The
Monument" Wren's masterpiece, which
stands near the northern approach to
London bridge, concentrating the great
fire of 1865, knew that they were in
grave danger of personal injury from the
exasperated crowd which gathered about
the base Of the structure, but they have
not vet learned that their temporary
abode was in even greater peril. Over
looking the monument is one of his
majesty's tax collecting offices, and in the
Office sat one OF that type Of the kings
tax collectors, who never overlook any
thing that may add to the Lloyd George
budget.
The collector, after hastily reading the
law relating to the imposition of the in
habited house tax, sought the police in
spector in charge of the squad besieging
the monument and begged him for per-
mission to present the sufrragette gar
fison with demand for inhabited house
duty on the ground that, having dispos-
sessed the caretaker, the women
were the de facto occupants of the
structure. As the tax-collector mourn
fully confessed later. the inspector was
the usual type of London police official
without the requisite magma tion to
grasp the possibilities of this counter

The Nevada idea of shooting persons
condemned to death under the laws OF
the state does not commend itself as
the best means of execution; even hang
ing is to be preferred to that scheme OF
putting a man out of life. But best OF
all is the system Of electrocution as
tried so successfully in Massachusetts
and New York and about to be tried in
Vermont as much freedom from
bad features, it is sincerely hoped.

The aeroplane fight across the Florida
straits from Key West to Havana is one
of the most interesting contributions to
the progress of aeroplane development
because the experiment was along useful
lines as tending to show that it may be
practicable to establish air fight across
short bodies of water, such as the ninety
miles separating the two pieces of land.
A fight of this length would not be
attended by grave dangers such as would
accompany trip across land or wide
expanse of water. One of these days we
may have Key West Havana air route
transportation system in operation.

II is fact worth noting that granite
has replaced the marble panels in the
new state historical society building at
Concord, N. H., and we note that the
Concord Monitor reports the granite
panels 'have wrought great improve
ment in the appearance of the building,
and have given it finish heretofore
lacking" Builders of public structures
of this sort ought to bear this testi-
mony in mind when reaching decision
as to material to be used in the build

and it deprives that journal of the serv-

Col. Harvey will have plenty of chance

The innocuous bombs which have been
discovered near various banks in Lon
don recently were not placed there by
practical iokers, as the police have been
inclined to believe, but, according to a
member of the militant organization, the
fake explosives were left by recruits OF
the Women's Social and Political union
who were being tested by their leaders
as to their fitness for more serious
forays.
IL seems that a militant member, who
was suspected OF being an agent of Scot

New York, who delivered the principal
address at the morning session Of the

ment is doing a great work in this
field but it Is seriously handicapped by
the limitations of the constitution, the
large territory to be covered and the
extent to which the evil has grown"
Mrs. Alice Stebbins Wells, of the Los
Angeles police department, said:
THE police woman has come in an
swer to modern needs and she has
come to stay-not to displace men, but
TO supplement their work. For countless
ages the business world was a mans
world. with the women and children
secluded in the home. When cities fully
realize the value of women in preven-
tive work there will be such women in
every city and many where now there
