Now that Senator Gore has been
acquitted and it was substantially
established that a trap was set for
him, why wouldn't it be good
thing to arrest Mrs. Bond for at
tempted blackmail and if convicted
give her a sentence in the peniten-

of a mans character, coupled with
an attempt to bleed him for $780,

holding up a train. Why not give

Gen. Villa has refused, according
to press reports, to deliver the body
of Benton to Mrs. Benton. This is
taken to mean that he is afraid that
the condition of the body will show
that there was no court martial and
Benton was not killed by shooting
squad. One Texan insists that
Benton was killed and the court
martial held afterward. Possibly
this is true version of the affair.

repetition of the same splendid
offer four years hence, or in 1919.
if this competition was carried to d
successful issue, it was felt that the
composers would willingly make
every effort to meet the conditions.
1t was also probable that many of
them were already at work upon an
opera or had perhaps been working
for years, and that this offer would
stimulate them to take up their
work with renewed energy and hope.
The large number of entries up to

correct and the scarcity of protests
shows their desire to co operate with

Clubs were aware of the fact that
the time allotted for the completion

the first production of the opera
might be given coincident with the

CLUB NOTES

I'll | rehearsed in my mind what
part of the club work | seemed to
drift into, and found it to be none
other than the household economics.
To some it may not seem true that
club woman can also be a thor
ough housekeeper, but | will prove
to you what it means to a woman
to mix with those who are bette
able to do things than she is.
One becomes narrow and forgetful
OF others when leading too domestic
o Lire. 1t is a duty to ourselves, as
we'll as to our husband or family.
if there be one, to get amongst other
women.
l am sure that no man would OBJ
ject to his wife being a club WON
an if he thought that she were able
to acquire new ideas for the daily
menu, for hasn't it always Leen
known that "the way to a mans
heart is through his stoi ach,' and
then she can learn more than she
has already known about sanitation,
Few ideas in building a home, the
care of a home, characteristics of
how to sew, which mostly consists
CT making aprons for the annual
club bazaar, and even to go further
when the aprons are finished-we
are taught how to sell them, which
shows that club woman can also
be good saleslady, providing she
sells all the aprons and turns the
| money over to the much needed
fund of the club.
All this has been gone over in our
| club work for the past year. OF
course everything cannot be gone
over thoroughly in one short year.
but we aim to give enough variety
| SO that if a new recipe is given
| that our husband does not suffer
| from having the same dish forced
upon his good nature too often.
AT one meeting we have the prep
asaton of fish, then salads, meats,
jelatine dishes and many fancy des-
serts. which cannot help but make
a tasty menu when put together;
so I have proven to you that the
club woman is a necessity no matter
what branch of study she cares to
| follow
| To be a good housekeeper is as
much of an accomplishment as any
of the finer arts.

Has civics crowded out other de-
partments? is frequently asked the
club woman of today.
1t is true that since woman S
suffrage has been granted the civics
department has grown with the de-
sire of the voter to become &C
Quainted with public affairs, but in
equal proportion has been the
growth in other sections. While a
course in civics is considered neces-
sary, it has not lessened the interest
in other studies. Mrs. S. j. Michel
son is a member of the Woman's
club who belongs to three of it's de-
partments-civics education music
and household economics, and it is
the last branch that has received
her most earnest attention She has
a charming house on North First
avenue and is a capable and clever
housekeeper. How one may gain
knowledge of household art by at
tending club, rather than have
home deteriorate by being in con-
slant club attendance, is told by
Ms. Nicholson this morning in a
brief article written especially for
