CLUB NOTES

'Woman's work is wide and varied, and one that needs her attention at present is the good roads improve ment," according to Mrs. T. F. IT. vine. who has written an interesting article on the subject for this morn ing's Republican.
 The several clubs and organiza tions to which Mrs. Irvine belongs gives evidence of her many inter ests. Because she is as tactful as she is well informed she has been called upon frequently to serve on committees and has been on more than one executive board. She is a member of the board of directors of the Young Women's Christian asso- citation. an active worker of the Arizona Congress of Mothers and d prominent member of the Womans club. Being particularly interested in education department of the latter club, and series of well prepared papers have demonstrated her pro- found study of questions of the day. She is registered also with the household economies department. as any topic relating to the home has claim upon Mrs. lrvine's attention. She declares that the good roads movement has direct bearing on the house, ana this is what she says

GOOD ROADS"
(By Mrs. r. E. irvinem


 The improvement of the public question, claiming the attention of each succeeding generation. Many theories have been advanced in re- gard to it's improvement and main tenance.
 The first consideration shouLl be tc improve the roads in all parts of the country. so as to enbale the far mer to market his produce at a less cost, thereby increa sing his profits and at the same time decrea sing the price to the consumer. The improved road which will do the most good is the one leading into the business center the one which will make the city and farm nearer neighbors, and allow the farmer to market his crops according to the condition of the market, and not according to the condition of the roads
 Good roads have moral, civic and educational value that cannot be measured in dollars. Good schools cannot be reached unless we have good roads. The children of today are the e.e tors, the representatives the senators and the judges of to- ruorrow: if education means liberty. and if poor roads mean illiteracy, or worse, have we d right not to build good roads?
 The most important matter now before the people Of this state is the subject of good roads. It's import nuce lies in the direct bearing it has on the social and economic welfare of the whole people. It is the base ot the great problem-transpOrta that problem which is of vital inter - est 10 all classes-producers, dealers consumers. investors, homeseekers and tourists, who are seeking invest ments and opportunities Aiela Parked Kendall says in an article on Transportation in the General Federation Magazine:
 Bad roads interfere with the so- cial and intellectual advantages oi the farmer and his family prevent his children from attending school, render impossible he consolidated county and community high school, keep the family from church and community gatherings, the doctor from his patient, even interfere with young peoples courtship and chances

of marriage, thus striking at the loots of the home, the foundation of society. All we eat, all we wear. the building material for our homes. must go over the public highway, and so the prices of the world are affected by muddy roads. We have been paying. this mud tax ever since the first load was sent over bad road. The tax is shared hy the pro duccr. dealer and consumer in the added cost of living. and is the only tax we seem never to complain of. Would it not be more satisfactory to pay two per cent road tax and overcome the handicap of st twenty per cent mud tax? It has been said that he who makes two blades of grass grow where one grew before is benefactor of mankind. Trans { portation is part of production, and he who even helps to make two tons go where one went before is t bensfactor of the race. Women throughout the west have commenced 1 to take an interest in the good roads ; cause. Woman's work is wide and varied, and one that needs her at tention at present is the good roads movement.

Following the program a delightful social hour was held and the club presented a silver bowl to Mrs. Lockett the organizer of the club and it's president for the past two years Mrs. S. w. Wells will head the club next season,
 Chapter A of D. F. o. will meet at two thirty o'clock Tuesday after noon at the home of Mrs. k. P. Grnstead of the Indian School. Mrs Constance Bfiggs will be the hostess.
