The Latest Il Winning Cham
pionship for Oats a Third X
Time.

Recently was published the fact o
remarkable winnings BY Canada,
4arn6ers In several events during thu
past three or four years. The latest
q that Of Messrs. ]. c. Hill & Sons
q Lloydminster, Saskatchewan, who
won In . hard contest for the oai
championship over Montana. At the
National Corn Exposition at Dallas
during February, Montana oats were
awarded the championship for the
United States. Waiting for the win
ner Of this to be announced was q
peck OF oats belonging to the ca
madam growers above mentioned, and
alongside Of these was q like quantity
belonging to q Minnesota grower. who
was barred from the regular compe.
clifton because he was at one time the
winner Of the trophy-the prize. The
three entries were side by side on the
Judges bench. It would not be pos.
sible to bring together three more
likely samples. The Montana and
Saskatchewan entries were OF equal
weishtl09pounds to the busheL The
Minnesota sample was some three
pounds lighter. The award was
unanimous In favor of the Saskatche-
wan oats. A remarkable feature and
one greatly to the credit Of the Ca
madam product was that the oats,
grown In 1913. were grown and shown
by those who had competed during
the past two years. winning on each
occasion. This, the third winning,
gave them for theg third time the

The oats which have thus given to
Western Canada another splendid ad-
vertising card, were grown 300 miles
north Of the International boundary

the smaller grains can Do grown with
greater perfection and with more

port at the next convention at least one club in each of the fourteen counties in the state. Just now, we have four counties without representation in the Federation: Navajo, and Apache Tn the North and Graham and Greenlee in the South. I am also anxious to see the establish ment of Northern District Federation. This would be the means of awakening much club enthusiasm in the Northern sec ton of the State. where there is at present great need for the ''get-to-gether spirit" with such a District Federation the women of the North could come together at least twice year, for counsel and encouragement. and great inspiration, and broader know ledge would be the inevitable result. A recent writer Tn one of our educational journals has we'll said "One ot the great socializ- ing forces. is work of a Co- operative nature. When people, work together they become close friends comrades, and that is just the condition we are striving for in this Woman's club move meht. We want to see all of the women of the state comrades in the true sense, working side by side. in this beautiful spirit. without envy or criticism, with out thought of self-gratifcation or personal reward. and with only the desire to better local surroundings, and help her less fortunate comrade.
 And now final word. If your club has already done Big Things, | don't stop with the spirit of self satisfaction. Help a weaker club, or get busy on some of these special movements I have emphasized. Let us take with us the words of that great club woman, Jennie June, who said, time brings but one regret that we had not more joy in the things that were, more behef, more patience, more love, more knowledge of the way things worked out, more willingness to help towards the final result"
 With my very kindest wiches to each individusI club. I am,
 Most cordially yours.

THE WOMAN'S CLUB

On the 18th day of last May a few enterprising women thought they might be of some help to this splendid town of Holbrook. in the way of civic improvement work, They organized a Wo- mans Club ssfor the purpose of bettering. if possible, condi- tions in Navajo County in general and Holbrook in particular. So far, however, our work has been very limited. and not altogether along the line of club work, owing to the fact that it takes money to keep the engine running. Our efforts have been, to make expenses during the summer months, and at the same time prepare ourselves to join the Federation. which we expect to do in the near future, Thus to outline a regular pro- gram of work, and perhaps take up some special course of study for the coming year. The club has just purchased three sets of interesting books with that idea in view. It is our intention how ever to devote a portion of our time to civic improvement work, and as we will always have the interest and welfare of our home town more at heart than any thing else, time spent in this way will always be a pleasure.

COULD THEY DO AS WELL?

They were sitting with copy of last weeks NEWS spread before them. They read the:- We are now in the hands of the ladies. God bless them!" announcement. A smile lit up their countenances and while we did not hear. we did see them. Say! Then they saw us, and being gentlemen, it stopped right there. We felt the flush that is caused by ridi- cule begin to dye our cheek. but a mental slap upon the back, ac- companied by the admonition to be "a good sport, had it's effect. Voting at a state primary or gen~ eral election in Arizona is new work to US women folks. So is editing a newspaper. We've got to learn how to do both.
 We do not feel we must apolo- gize for this one baby effort, which IS not the work of any one nor any two of us, but the con- bined work of each and every active member of The Woman's Club.
 The only question with us is could these men do any better than we have done?

The ball game last Sunday be- tween the Mexican team and the local nlne was interesting from start to finish. For a few innings, it looked like Water loo for the home team and if the pitching staff of the Mexican team had held up, the score would have been very close. Both teams gave a very good eX- hlbition of fielding. The Mexican team have challenged the home team for another game next Sunday and they will have a strong battery which they be- lieve will insure them a victory.
 The Friday club was delight fully entertained today by Mrs. w. H. Clark. The time was pleasantly spent by most of the sixteen ladies present in needle work. and at 4::30 a dainty lunch was served consisting of sand wiches, jelly roll, loaf cake and pine apple ice, delicious home made candy and orangeade. Mrs. John Nelson and Mrs. R. s. Tee pie were guests.

Early last fall the fertile brain of Miss Maud Dawson, who was at that time the head of our public schools, conceived the idea of forming a Book Club.
 The feasibility of the plan was laid before several of our ladies, who when they saw the advan- tages to be derived therefrom, at once set to work to further such an organization.
 Twenty persons agreed to pur- chase one book each. Each per son was asked to hand in a list of three of the latest books of Fiction-a first. second and third choice.
 The slips were numbered when handed In. Then it was, First come, first served"
 The completed list of the books desired was handed over to the Holbrook Drug Gu, and they, in turn, hurried it away to some book concern. In less than three weeks from the time the plans were first discussed. the books were in the possession of the purchasers.
 In the front of each book was pasted a type written list of the names of the club members. The one and only rule of the club was: On every other Wednes- day, beginning with the distri- button of the books, the book at that time Tn possession of each member should be passed on to the party whose name followed theirs on the list.
 By adhereing to this simple rule. each book eventually came back to the person from whom It started. Each member had the book of their own selecting. and for the price of this book had had the privilege and pleasure of reading nineteen other books.
 So we'll satisfied are those who embarked in thls enterprise that they are preparing to start an- other such circle this fall.

Cottage Changes Hands

The Cottage Hotel, which has been very successfully managed for the past two years by Mr. and Mrs. E. H. Daley, changed hands on the 20th, and through that change Holbrook will lose MT. and Mrs. Daley and Miss Maida, as they expect to return to their former home in Denver. We are sorry to part with these good people and they will be greatly missed in the commu- nifty, where they are deservedly popular. The best wishes of all will go with them.
 MT. and Mrs. Will Evans, who are now Tn charge of the Cot tage, need no introduction to the people of Holbrook. Mrs. Evans. who was manager Of HOLBRoOK NEWS for some two years, is a very capable lady, and through her pleasant manner, IS favora- ply known to all. MT.

To The Club Women
 of the State of Arizona


 tunity offered me by the energy and enterprise of the Club Wom en of Holbrook, to send you my best wishes. and most hearty greetings.
 It is with profound gratitude that I find myself able to report increased activity all oyer the State inSThe Woman's Clut movement. What this movement means towards the advancement and improvement of the State can hardly be foretold. The State Federation now numbers about fourteen hundred women, and this by no means. includes all the Club Women of the State, since there are several clubs out side the ranks of the Federation. But all club women, whether federated or not, are working earnestly for the betterment of local conditions. in some par ticular direction, and hence, it is easy to see, that wonderful results may be expected, when so many intelligent and enthus- iastic women are working along similar lines.
 Perhaps it would be well for me to tell you at this times just what 1 hope to see accomplished during my term of serylce. 1 want to see an appreciable gain in the Girls Scholarship Fund established during the admins tration of Mrs. Newson. This is a most worthy and credible movement, and should be pushed forward towards larger accom- plishments. I hope every club in the federation will want to have a part in this splendid work, and will plan, during the comir g year. a special day for the fur therance of this course, and will earn something. no matter how small. to add to this fund, which is in the hands of Mrs. Dixen Fagerberg, of Prescott. Chair man of Education.
 It is not easy to plead for money. but it is very necessary, and I want also to see establish ed a Fund, the interest of which. may be used by the President in visiting the Clubs in the State. This fund has been discussed at each Annual Convention for several years, but nothing defin- ite has been done towards it's creation. 1 expect to take it up at the coming Convention. and lam giving it publicity in this way and by personal word that you may be pondering over it and come to the convention with ideas and suggestions which will aid in it's naturalization. The Endowment Fund of the General Federation is now a splendid reality-One Hundred Thousand Dollars real and I am proud that Arizona stood highest Tn percent towards it's completion. It is signal honor for the Baby State. We will be asked to do nothing more for the General Federation. Now let us do some home missionary work, and make it possible for our own state president to visit each club once during her time of service. As Mrs. Pennypacker pointed out in her plan for the General Fund, many able aud splendid women are financially unable to bear the expense of accepting this position, and the same thing applies to the State work. and as the Club movement extends within our borders it is going to be a greater problem. Many times our most efficient women will be unable to serve us, and we must establish and develop this fund if we would enjoy the best of our talent. A Club in
