MEETING OF THE WoMANs CLUB

Inc woman 8 CluD uCiu q oPAS
meeting Saturday afternoon with
large attendance. 1t was health art:
,rnoon and a very fine program nad
been arranged by Mrs Walter HOOD.
chairman of the health department,
who presided in 4 splendid manner.
On account of several who took part
n the program having to leave early
.he program was given before the ous-
mess meeting.
DR.. E. Van Hood read splendid pa
ner on Vital Statistics that contain
ed much valuable data. He pointed
out the things that the Woman's Club
has already done to help the board OF
health. the things he wants them TIC
continue and the things in which they
IAN aid the board in the future. Prln-
cipal among the things already done
by the club has been the campaign
against flies and mosquitoes, and Dr.
Hood said that in the past four years
the health conditions have wonderful
ly improved. Another valuable thing
that the club has been instrumental
in doing has been the medical inspec
ton of school children. The club is
taking up the matter of assisting the
board in securing the necessary vital
statistics.
Miss Marshall, matron of the hos
pital, gave short talk on the value
and necessity" of hospitals, and DR..
Watt gave a splendid account of his
work of inspecting the school chill
dren, and the other lines of public
municipal work in which he is engag-
ed.
Mrs. William Hooker, president of
the Florida Federation, made very
fine talk on the state sanitarium for
tuberculosis that the state health de-
partment is now so earnestly endeav-
oring to secure Mrs Hooker made
splendid plea for the sanitarium. This
state sanitarium is an absolute neces-
sity, and we feel sure will soon be
realized
Miss jefferson Bell, who was in the
commissioners office in Tallahassee
for so long, supplemented Mrs. Hook
er's talk. She was at the capital
when this matter came up, and spoke
of the lukewarm manner in which 1t
was received. The legislature would
gladly appropriate large sums for sick
hogs, cattle, ETC., but for the poor peo-
pie suffering with the dread white
plague seemed to be most Indifferent.
A very beautiful music program was
rendered during the afternoon. Mrs.
Albert Gerig having the musical pro-
gram in charge. Miss Gertie Peyser
played in wonderful manner the IA
nous Second Rhapsodie by List.
Miss Cecile Downs sang most exquis-
itely two numbers, ''In May Time,' by
Oby Speaks, and 1.-THE Wind" by
Spruss. Miss Marguerite Porter's
two lovely numbers were Summer"
by C. Chaminade, and "Oh, Fair, Oh
Sweet and Holy" by Cantor.
At the business session the reports
of standing committees were made,
md the president appointed Miss Mel
lie Stevens, Mrs. Jack Camp and Mrs.
Walter Hood the nominating commit
tee for the annual election of officers
at the business meeting next month.
Mrs. J. E. Johnson joined the club
at this meeting.
Mrs. ]. F. Leitner and Mrs. William
Gober were hostesses at the social
hour, serving hot tea, cake, etc.

the rest of the army retiring. that
wing must still do likewise or be
left IN France alone to face exter-
minatlnn.
1t is to be expected that the Ger
man retreating columns will finally
reach u point at which they can re-
form and come back to the fight.
Then again, for a few days it will
be necessary to wait with bated
breath for the outcome. None of
these great advance and retreat
movements spell actual defeat for
either army. The number of men
engaged on either side is too tre-
mendous for that In the midst of
this charging and courter-charging
will begin to develop points of weak
ness. Sooner or later the aim of
some of the advance movements will
be attained to more or less degree
and then portions of the unfortunate
side will be lost. Such an occur
renee can be the first actual success
of lasting value. As it. is now the
armies appear to be struggling on a
par. The Germans forced the AL
lies back for miles. Now they are
being compelled to double back in
hurried order on their tracks. All
this must tend eventually to break
the strength of the under dog, Ger
many. Continued successes were
necessary to give her an equal place
in the struggle. She cannot stand
these occasional reverses. II would
appear now that armed troops from
Germany will never set foot in Paris
in this war. That they should
achieve successes is TO be expected,
however. The irresistible rush to
victory that seemed to be browning
their efforts at the start is an i'm
possibility now.

I HE WAR

Another week Of the great Euro
pean war shows the advantage veer-
Ing to the sides of the Allies. While
the Franco-English forces have
swung from the defensive to the Of
fensive with considerable success,
the Russian attack in the east which
was so successful in Austria while
the Allies were continually retreat
ing in France appears to be suffer-
ing somewhat from recent develop
mentS
To the reader whose observations
may be somewhat antl-German it
appears that what seemed apparent
from the first is becoming an actu-
al fact. 1t appears that the great
odds against which the powerful
German military system is strug-
Cling is beginning TO tell on the
German nation. Just when the ap-
parently irresistible German invad-
ers were about to reach the gates of
Paris something went wrong. The
Allies suddenly turned in their re-
treat and attacked their pursuers.
For several days they fought pretty
much at standstill. Then sudden
lythe German right began to give
way. with the German center still
struggling with superhuman conr-
age to force their advance. Later,
rearward movement of that center
was noticeable so that at present
practically all of the Kaiser's army
is in state of precipitate retreat.
The extreme east wing, however, is
still maintaining somewhat of an
equality in the struggle. But with

the present are out Of the question.
The majority Of this nation is too
closely akin to England not to ap-
preciate the attitude that their best |
interests will demand. The Allies
have pledged to each other no form
of peace until all are satisfied. That
alone will give England the advant-
age desired in debating the terms
of peace. France and Belgium may
be required to pay heavily in the
war. even more than England, but
the island kingdom will b, able to
fight until the terms of peace are
to her liking and the others must
follow her to the bitter end. That
fact alone, must spell the eventual
downfall of the German.
On the west it is impossible to
form an accurate estimate of the
Russian attack. 1t is most certain
that the Cars millions have struck
q blow against Austria. the prime
cause of the great catastrophe. Dis
patches from the Austrian capital
admit it and complaint is heard that
Austria suffered that Germany
might be free to chastise the French
and English in France. Germany,
too. has refused financial assistance
to her companions in arms. This is
a grievious blow to Austrian hopes.
| In East Prussia whatever advant-
age has been gained would appear
to belong to the German. but that
advantage has been obtained at a
terrible cost: the weakening of the
invading force IN France.
| AS appeared to be the likelihood
from the first. Germany is doomed
to fight noble fight against odds
and lose.
| Herewith we give an extract of
the reports as published in the daily
papers. 1t gives a detailed descrip-
ton Of the conditions which main
tain in France at present:
Paris, Sept14.-It was officially an
nounced that the Germans are max.
ing stand on the Aisne River. The
statement says:
"On our left wing we have every.
where caught up with the rear
guards and even the main body of
the army.
Our troops have reentered
Amiens, abandoned by the German
forces.
The enemy appears 10 be making
] a stand on the prepared front along
the River Aisne.
"On the center similarly it seems
. that the enemy intends to resist or
the heights to the northwest and tc
the north of Rheims.
In the region between Argonne
and Meuse they continue to retire.
On our right wing in the Avre
district we have succeeded in reliev.
ing the fort of Troyon, which has
been stubbornly attacked during
| the last few days.
In Lorraine our pursuing detach.
ments are keeping, as everywhere
! else, in touch with the Germans.
