,s che talked, Miss Wahlberg gave
numerical cue to other members,
r-so immediately at the signal, gave
,oice ia some bright expression indt-
tive of what The NomadS stand for
a, principle and what the outgroWth
~ their work has meant to the mem
- and those who have been asso-
.,atsd with them, in their twenty-five
raars of membership. The clever quips
rsar introduced here and there, at the
.vnansa of the members, which caused
much merriment.
Mrs. Thomas v. Hannah, OF Inc
lNomads. then introduced Mrs. buclus
/ Reeves, who spoke for the guests
If the evening. Mrs. Reeves, in
bright extemporaneous talk, inter
s,arsed with much that was helpful,
s1ota of the movement to unity The
interests of the business and profess
lanai women through state and ma
dopal federation, and of the pleasure
"a the members in their weekly meet
ngs. as we'll as the Importance OF such
meetings in the development OF Woln-
lsnhood. Mrs. Reeves pictured the
woman of today with her level gaze,
her frank, open attitude toward life,
with that of the woman of the past
who met life without the consciousness
Of her own wort, vic life and its OPP
|7ortunities now offer.
Mrs. Reeves urged the members OF
he Business Woman's Club to go for
ward without fear to meet the great
issues of the day-the complex prob
ems that must be faced to be over
come. and told them that there need
he no fear of loss of femininity, in
doing the big work of the world, which
women of every station are taking up,
and which must be well and nobly
done, If the best that is possible is
to be achieved, for women will al
ways be women, as her creator in
tended.
Mrs. Reeves also spoke of the many
hours that The Nomads have spent
happily together travelling about the
world during the past twenty five
years, and Of the rich results, of men
tai stimulus and the many close
friendships that have been formed, and
reminded the members of the Business
Woman's Club that in friendships
formed at their meetings they would
find rewards for every sacrifice made
N attendance or whatever demands
might be made upon them.
Following the very delightful talk
by Mrs, Reeves, members of the BUSH
ness Woman's Club gave short talks,
on the work in which they were most
vitality interested. Miss Vera Turk
talked in a very helpful way on her
chosen profession, stenography, calling
attention to the many improvements
made in the systems during the past
laf century, and Mrs. J. r. Hall spoke
On the merchandise brokerage business
ewing many valuable suggestions in
her outline of the duties involvel. Miss
sloyl Lempke, Mrs. Hargis Gonzalez
and Miss Fannie Solomon spoke of
aer work on the News, in the society,
