thusiastic applause greeted the presi- dent Mrs John Dennett, Jr., when sine said My purpose is to do all that I can in helping to increase the eff fiCiency of our work and to make the club of the greatest service to it's members and to the community Efficiency Was the keynote of her address of welcome.
 The world today recognizes ef- ficiency of service as the standard of measure" she declared.
 Tn all European countries women's organizations are proving their eff ficiency by abandoning their routine work and devoting their entire efforts | to their country's service.
 Tn thankfulness for our more for tunate position should we not strive to give more of ourselves to our club work and pray that our course may
 not be turned from it's present chan
 mel into one of such terrible useful ness
 In speaking of the club woman in general she said:
 The influence of the club woman is not limited to her home, it radiates into the home of many unfortunate family for the ideal club woman is not selfish but extends her service generously in promoting the public welfare. The establishment of parks children's play grounds day nurse.ies' charity commissions. juvenile courts Improvements in various phases of ed ucatiOn, tree and. flower planting. clean-up crUGades and enforcement of public health ordinances are some
 of the public services rendered by women's clubs. The tired business man does not find a wife fretful from a days drudgery but bright and cheerful from her association with the outside world; cOnversant with
 current events, the meal hour is no longer spent in detailed accounts of
 the little annoyances of daily life"
 Mrs. c. r. Ainsworth, chairman of the art and literature department, said that in outlining her plans for
 the year she had been influenced by three considerations.

 thing of personal interest to each member of the department, then to establish classes for both instruction and expression in art and literature and to enlarge our vision. to reach for the best and in reaching grow to it. The happy talent of acting will be again encouraged and those in terestcd are urged to come into q class to produce plays under a ca pablo director For art lovers we of fer the second annual art exhibit. which we are holding this year in conjunction with the state fair. In this way we are both able to give a better exhibit in a more comfortable gallery to a bigger public. The fair offers good premiums and is build ing a permanent gallery and will bring an invited exhibit from the Los Angeles Art club, which will be an education and inspiration. Best of all, the exhibition will be kept intact and thrown open to the pub lie the Sunday following the fair so everyone may see these pictures once free of charge.
