One OF Chattanooga's society girls, Miss
Katherine Phelps Lynch, has completed a
book of italian letters which is creating
decided interest among reviewers because
of its excellence, as well as among the
general public who are attracted heeapse
OF the personality of the writer
Miss Lynch, whose book, "The City OF
Sweet Do Nothing is handled elsewhere
by The Age-Herald reviewer, is delight
fully known in Birmingham among a
number of former Chattanoogans. She
wrote her story anonymously, and in un-
selfish spirit is giving the proceeds to
charity in the fortunate city of her resi-
attanooga-through the medium
of the Young Womens Christian associa-
tion OF that place.
In the form of letters this clever south
ern girl has written her impressions of
Naples. giving as the title of the result
ing volume Naples charming sobriquet,
Dolce far niente, anglicized into the
s'City of Sweet Do Nothing" Literary
critics speak of it as q fascinating book
of travel. Miss Lynch's friends, knowing
her as an unusually clever girl with keen
observation and an intense love of beauty,
yet were unprepared for the familiarity
with the classics and history evident in
her description of italian life. Her Br
mingham friends will be interested to
learn that her book has been particularly
successful.
Womens clubs and associations are the
ready made avenues in which to make
and spread popular opinion, says Ellen
Foster Stone in n clever article recently
appearing in the Philadelphia Public Led
ger.
They are not time killers" but Gre
ators OF better thought and enlghten-
ment, giving to their membership Il sort
of post graduate course in the living prob
lens of the day. They direct our atten-
tion to environing conditions and studying
conditions discloses contributory causes.
These causes in turn open innumerable
other lines for consideration. The reason
why is an eternal question, though we
have been negligent perhaps in realizing
the value of seeking reasons for situations
and conditions until within the past de-
cade or so.
Now the modern woman and the mod
ernized woman recognize their wider re-
sponsibilties for understanding affairs
not Immediately their own. Beyond
doubt 1t is known that the progressive
idea must get into the daily lives of the
many to render effective and general i'm
provements. An individual may receive
the inspiration, organized effort must ac-
complish the work.
The courtesies exacted by parliamentary
ruling all teach control, sweeten and cul-
tivate the spirit. while the friction OF
thought in discussion and the facts gained
help mentally. So oftener than not the
timid woman finds herself" Not only
finds herself, but finds opportunity for
self expression which shall save her from
empty handed maturity, from discomfort
and monotony. For there can be no mo-
notony for the awakened club woman.
The needs are so varied that the question
what to do first or what to do at all be-
comes a vexing one.
