CATHOLIC WOMAN'S
CLUB MEETING

The members of the Catholic Won
ans club held their first meeting Of
the season on Wednesday afternoon
found twenty-one members present.
The club was very pleasantly enter
tanned for a short time by three of
Sister Roberts pupils, Lauretta Fo-
ley, Alice Larkin and Audrey Muir
ply, playing piano solos and duets
The business meeting consisted
chiefly of discussing ways and means
of helping our soldier boys.
After the business meeting the la
dies listened to the reading of a pa
per on Work of Catholic Woman's
Clubs in Wartime" by Mrs. J. THE
mann. She said that although the
women have been working hard along
these lines, there is no available
printed matter on the subject, so the
information she received came direct
ly from the clubs. She took the Mad
ison club first, that being the nearest
home. This club has appointed three
committees, under which many sub
committees work The first is the
Red Cross committee, which attends
to bandage making, surgical dress
ings, etc. This department recently
sent hundreds of garments to the Wis
consin camp in Texas. A second di-
vision of the club is a committee on
the conservation of food They bought
and installed dryer at the city mar
ket in Madison, and then invited all
the ladies to bring their fruits and
vegetables to be dried The small
sum of two cents a pound was charg-
ed for drying, and the money thus &C.
quired was used by the club for diff
ferent things. Thousands of pounds
were dried, far more than could -
were dried, far more quickly and thor
oughly than could be done in the
home The third division of the club
IS the committee on spiritual and
moral welfare of the soldier This is
the most important, for it is SO very
necessary to keep the young mind
busy and to supply them with harm
less enjoyment They have been
looking into the question of providing
chaplains for the boys in camp. An
Investigation showed the deplorable
fact that there were only four Cath
olic priests appointed for all the Wis
consin soldiers. There are sixteen
thousand men in the Wisconsin ma
tional guard, of which forty per cent
are Catholic. In other words, four
priests to guard the spiritual and
moral welfare of 6,400 soldiers. 1t
was found that many priests are anx-
ious to go. Consequently more priests
are going to be sent to Waco as soon
as the regulations of Secretary Ba-
ker regarding army chaplains can be
met. She told of the knights of Co
lumbus establishing their halls as
headquarters for social gatherings,
ETC., and to those halls the Catholic
women can send their supplies OF
books, magazines, etc. All the Cath
Ollie Woman's clubs of Wisconsin are
cooperating with the Madison club
| in this work. She spoke Of the Cath
oils Woman's war relief service OF
Washington, D. G. They have done
and are still doing, much for the sol
der boy. The subject all through be
| ing so much in accord with the sym
| pathies of all made her paper doubly
appreciated.
After the paper social hour was
! spent when adjournment was taken
until October II.
