Reciprocity Day Observed
by Civics Department

Reciprocity Day was observed at
the regular meeting OF the Civics de-
partment OF the Woman's club OF Rock
Island yesterday afternoon al the Ma
sonic temple. Members OF the Moline.
East Moline and Davenport clubs were
guests OF the departments for the oc-
casion. The meeting was well attend
ed and proved a most interesting one.
The program opened with delightful
reading. The Happy Prince" given
by Mrs. !. Z. Clarkson in her pleasing
manner. with musical setting by Liza
Lehman. with Mrs. V. l.. Frykman az
the piano. Mrs. T. r. Van Meter OF
East Moline. was unable TO be pres
ent, and her topic. Night Schools for
Our Foreign Children" was omitted.
Mrs. George n. Huntoon of the Moline
club spoke entertainingly on The
Mothers Pension" and as a result
those who heard her have a clearer
idea OF the workings of the law. The
mothers pension is practically a new
law. having been in operation but six
years. IL was first tried in San Fran
cisco and since then has spread over
Il states. Its object is to keep the
children, who have lost their father.
at home and under the care Of their
mother. Statistics show that sc per
cenc Of the inmates of penal institu-
tons are brought up in state institu-
tons. and that il costs three times
as much 20 keep a child in state :n-
stitution as il does TO keep il at home.
The greatest drawback of the law is
that. under its ruling, a mother cannot
own her own home or any property
and receive the benefit OF the pen
sion in order TO secure the pension.
application must be made 20 the judge
OF the juvenile court. II there is one.
or 20 the probate judge. The case is
Investigated. and If found worthy the
pension Is given
The first pension was given in Rock
island county June l. 1912, and since

SOCIAL EVENTS

then 40 mothers and 1O3 children have
been benefited and about $4,000 has
been spent. The money is secured by
the means OF special tax OF three
,enths OF a mill OF every dollar of tax
able property. There is no better in
vestment that the state can make to
take care Cf its boys and girls. for II
il takes care of them while they are
young il will mean in most cases that
it will not have to take care of them
in later years.
Mrs. f. y. Coleman of Davenport
was the next speaker. her subject be-
ing. VIVA; the State of Iowa is Doing
for Her Deficient Children" She stat
ed that the work in Iowa is still in its
infancy. and was unable to give stat
istics. merely telling in general way
of the work OF segregating the chill
dren who are backward. it has been
found that it is best for the backward
children themselves. for the teacher.
for the other children whose advance
in school is more rapid, and for society
that children who are slow be placed
in a class by themselves in order that
they may be taught at a slower rate
Il has been found, too. that II is bet
ter to give less mental work and more
manual training work. Mrs. Coleman
in her talk sought TO arouse the inter
est OF her listeners in this work.
Mrs. +. 3. Kreis reported at the
close of the program on the result OF
the work done by the committee APP
pointed TO investigate the industrial
conditions with regard to women en-
pIoyed in Rock Island. The commit
tee. composed of Mrs. Kreis. Mrs. Mar
garet Schroeder. Mrs. Mayer Levi,
Mrs. F. o. Van Calder and Mrs. c. J.

ton of Lieutenant Governor O'Hara,

gress now in session in Chicago. This

twice as much.
All the above dishes are very nour-
ishing.
