FEOERA A 7 Q n
HAS HAD YEAR
GREAT SUCCESS
Annual Meeting and Election of
WOn,en's Clubs of ValIeyI
Most Interesting Event.
(MRS. V. S. CAMPBELL.)

The Imperial County Federation of
Women's Clubs closed what is admit
ted to be one of the most successful
years in it's history, Saturday. The
conference meeting at the Methodist
church in this city was representative
though hardly so well attended as in
former years. Mrs. Genevieve Will
liams, retiring president, conducted
the morning session. Mrs. George J.
Phelps who will lead the organization
as its president next year, occupied
the chair during the afternoon pro-
gram.
Reports of officers and department
chairman were unusually interesting,
indicating, as they did, the trend Of
club work toward the really vital
things that concern the community.
Notable among the reports We're those
on Child Welfare, Community Serv-
ice, Civics, Country Life, etc. all
dealing with real achievements along
the lines of helpful endeavor.
That the cultural side Of club life
maintains strong hold on most of the
organizations in the Federation, was
indicated in the reports of the music
chairman, Mrs. c. E. Fox, and others.
The only resolution passed at the
session was one unanimously endors-
ing the aims and work of the home
department of the farm bureau. The
marvellous achievements of the home
department were told by the country
life chairman and the motion to en-
dorse the resolution recommending it's
continuance was enthusiastically car
ried.
The retiring president was most
happy in her summing of the work
of the year and in her closing remarks
and inspirational recommendations
for the coming year. Mrs. Williams
has kept in close touch with every
phase of club work. her chairmen
have not been allowed to lag or fall
by the wayside. Everyone has been
kept with her face toward the goal
set for her by the energetic, most
capable, and self-sacrifcing leader. In
appreciation of her work as county
president. the Federation voted unan-
lmously to place her name on the
honor roll of the state endowment.
Mrs. George Phelps, the new presi-
dent, in few well chosen remarks,
set before the organization something
OF her ideals for the coming year "To
succeed there must be sane thinking,
conservation and team work." said the
speaker.
Luncheon was served at the close
of the morning session by the ladies
OF the Methodist church, following
which program of music, esthetic
exercises and dances were. given.
Imperial county clubs have been as.
signed a speaking part in the pageant
to be given at the state convention
meeting at Yosemite during the latter
part of this month. Mrs. Williams
read the part which will require four
characters dressed as Indians. The
episode assigned to Southern Calfor-
MIA, deals with the coming to Califor-
mia of the padres and the establish
ment of the missions.
The February meeting ofSthe county
federation will be held in Calexico with
the Woman's Improvement club as
! hostess.

Are BEING MADE
L. N. Pipkin, H. B. Carter and D.
R. McDavid Contributed Hand
sOmely to Fund

being made to the Christian Educa-
tion Movement in this state. The gift

wide-awake business men, and has
been successful in dealing in phos-
phate, timber lands, merchandise, etc.
He has varied interests in South Flor
ida, and along with many other Chris
tan business men ne has caught the
idea of service. He sees the need for
Christian schools, and it is in his
heart to place his money where it
will produce the largest returns in
manhood and womanhood. For years
he has been very active in his support
of Southern College and of Christian
Education, and by investing his means
in this great cause he will be enabled
to see the fruits of his sowing while
he lives.
In addition to this contribution of
Mr.. Pipkin others are announced.
Mention has already been made of the
purpose of Mr.. II. B. Carter OF this
city to build memorial hall in men,
ory of his children who have gone
away to join the angels. This wealthy

$4,000 into building on the college
site at Lakeland. Mr.. Carter it will
be remembered, is the owner of the
Hotel Thelma, in Lakeland, and other
vast interests in different parts of
the state.
Another donation made to the cause
of Christian Education is $4,000 by.

zen of the Tallahassee district. He

Allied Commission Sent

Paris. May 23.-The allied high
commission in Upper Silesia has sent
delegations to intervene with both
the Germans and the Poles and en-
deavor to obtain the cessession of all
military operations in that territory,
according to French official dis
patches today.
Each of the delegations is composed
ot representatives of French. Great
Britain and Italy.
In French circles the situation is
regarded as most grave, following the
German attack against the Polish
lines. The Poles, according to French
information, retired, leaving the i'm
rortant Annaberg position in the
hands of the German volunteer corps.
The German attack, although re-
Garded as very serious, is not con-
sidered in French official circles as a
causus belli as it was carried out by
irregular forces. 1t is thought here,
from information received at Oppeln,
that German officers are winking at
the action of the volunteers IL they
are not officially encouraging it, but
confidence is expressed in the good
faith of Chancellor Wirth, who is re-
garded as sincerely endeavoring to
prevent trouble. The allied represen-
tGtives in Berlin will call on DR..
Wirth today and ask him to close the
Silesian frontier and take all possible
steps to prevent intervention by other
volunteer forces
