Important Session of Woman's Club.

Last Fridays meeting of the Wo-
mans Club, held at st. Marks Guild
Hall, was indeed a busy session,
judging from the results. Professor
Van Brunt was present and gave a
report of the splendid donations in
books received by the school library
committee, announcing that there are
now about 200 volumes in the IL
brary. To quote his words: 81 I'M
derstand the women of this club wish
to help in this work and l wish to
ask, would you be willing to adopt
the offer made by Golfers, which in
cludes DR.. Eliot's five foot shelf of
fifty books, twelve volumes of
Shakespeare and sixty lectures? By
doing this, the club members as well
as the students may have access to
them; they are invaluable as a school
asset, and the terms are such that
they do not impose burden upon
you"
After a short discussion, the ladies
of the club unanimously decided in
favor of purchasing the books.
Mrs. Gay then gave the members
much information as to the work of
the federation in the matter of leg
islation. A few of the things men,
toned that are being agitated are
statewide clean-ups, civic and moral
training in the school curriculums,
opening of school houses for civic
centers, the state committee to work
for statewide or local option law
for compulsory education.
Florida has a high percentage of
illiteracy and juvenile delinquents are
to be looked after; also an appropria-
ton to build a reform school for
girls; laws should be enacted for
bidding the marriage of insane or fee
ble-minded, and a state law that will.
permit women to serve on school
boards, where they may have a voice
in school management.
Miss Susie Walton, chairman of the
educational department, then took
charge of the meeting and told of her
visits to the various clubs while in
Tennessee, together with the inspira
ton she received because of the
brisk way they set about doing the
work put before them. After a short
discussion as to the outline of study
for next years work, Mrs. Burt read
a very interesting paper on cart" in
anticipation of the club taking up
the study of art in next years pro-
gram. She brought from her home
bust of Hermes holding the infant
Bachus, an original by Praxiteles, the
Greek sculptor who lived and wrought
in the years 32O-340 B. C. The meet
ing then adjourned

could receive. Then we could contin-
ne our enormous commercial losses,
domestic and foreign. We are already
in state of war. We can't suffer
very much more now by cutting of
the abnormal trade in arms, and in
food which we ourselves need. The
belligerent nations have already hit
us their harest blow. The only eff
fective blow we could make in return
would be a cessation Of trade witt

err than could be inflicted by &
