GREETINGS FROM SISTER CLUBS.
! The Moline Woman's club, through
Mrs. George Huntoon, extended greet
ings to the club and in a few happy
words congratulated it on its splendid
beginning and pointed out wherein the
most effective work can be accom-
plished. She showed wherein repre-
sentative body of women, such as the
one just formed, could accomplish
much as a great developer and lev
eler. She held that religion, politics
and suffrage should be eliminated from
the club to work the most harmoni
fhncn
tions being the rocks upon which many
clubs have been wrecked. She spoke
of the formation of departments and
assured the club that departments
would be formed as the need of then
is presented, and that the year would
not be half long enough to accomplish
all that its members would like to do
Mrs. Huntoon assured the local clut
that the organization which she repre-
scented would be most willing to joir
with this club and the Davenport Wo
mans club in the formation of q
tri-city federation when the time is
ripe for such a body to be formed.
Greetings to the club were brought
from the Davenport Woman's club by
Mrs William TheOphilus, and she haC
much the same message as Mrs. Hun
tooD. She spoke especially Of the eff
fort being made by the Davenport
club IN the interest of peace and arbi
tration and the effort that is being
made to instill the idea into the minds
of the school children, by the setting
aside of special day for the advance
ment of peace. She spoke, too, of the
tri-city federation idea and was hearth
ly in accord with any movement look
ing towards its organization.
