ganization in 1917, the membership at
that time having been increased to

music popular, and popular music
good"

dent. Many other excellent workers
have come and gone; four have pass
ed on to the Great Beyond.
A public library was organized in
1913, which has been maintained by
the club. This library now has over
200 volumes.
Other public improvements and in
terests have been aided. such as the
auditorium, the park, Red Cross work,
the Delta hospital, etc.
The club has been delightfully."- en-
tertained at various times by the
clubs of the county, and have had the
pleasure Of entertaining in return.
The social affairs. in which the
husbands gladly participate, as well
as the guest days and children's par
ties. are all very pleasing affairs and
add much to the social life of the
community, but the main object has
been literary work.
Meetings are held on each alternate
Wednesday. The present member

The club has been federated under

Federation is being held in Colorado

Modern Woman's Club.
In the fall of the year 1904 small
band of women on Rogers Mesa or
ganized a club called "The Modern
Women's Club" The first president
was Mrs. Vim Reynolds, and it was
organized with the chief object in
view Of making newcomers feel vel
come on the mesa.
In those days neighbors were far
apart and amusements few, SO these
ladies made their own good times by
meeting twice a month at the homes
of members.

being the Rogers Mesa Community

Shakespeare Club
About the winter of 1910 a few
ladies met for the purpose of estab-
fishing a club, something of an in
tellectual character, more than mere
fancy work. Hardly an organization
at first, it rapidly achieved a con-
stitution and officers and was chris
tened Shakespeare Study Club
A boon it became for many who,
having emerged from the nursery and
Mother Goose period of their chill
dren, needed the mental stimulus and
review of their own school days. The
study was not confined wholly to the
pursuit" of Shakespeare. but dipped
into the realm and history of other
poets, and in order to keep in touch,
for discussion.
The club never exceeded 20 men,
bers, SO the close association was a
pleasure in itself.
For time the Shakespeare be-
longed to the Federation, but realiz-
ing that the small dues were proving
such tiny drops in the great public
bucket, withdrew to confine its bene-
factions to Delta needs.
The club has contributed to scholar
ship funds, placed splendid edition
of Shakespeares works in the library,
as well as fine bust Shakespeare;
aided in hospital equipment, notably
the placing of two electric fans; con-
tributed to Y. NJ. C. A. fund; aided
needy families. etc.
The meetings are semi-monthly,
following carefully prepared and
varied program. Usually two of the
Shakespearean dramas are studied
during the club year.
Presidents have come and presi-
dents have gone; officers and men,
bers have departed or died, but a
few charter members are still ION

ever, because it is worthwhile club,
as even the more recently acquired
members can testify.
Paonia Womans Club
The Woman's Club of Paonia was
organized in 1902. It's first officers
were: Mrs. E. P. Martin, president;
Mrs. R. F. Rockwell, secretary.
Emphasis was placed on the club
motto: Progress and Harmony" The
membership was limited to 25. The
yearly study course consisted OF social
and economic questions, literature
and music. 1t was ever ready to
serve the community in matters of
progress and civic pride.
In 1920, feeling the need Of more
workers, the membership was en-
larged to 40.
The Civic improvement committee
outlined a vigorous program for com
munfty service. The first to claim
the attention of the club was the
hospital, which was in need Of funds

Fortunate enough to have early
won the confidence of railroad build
ers and alert enough to appreciate
the needs and desires of a rich terri
tory, indianapolis today serves the
entire country as a model trading and
industrial center.
The city is centrally located with
regard to the region it serves, COM
peting cities all being about equally
distant from Indianapolis. Studied
efforts to please its commercial visi-
tors have ever been characteristic of
the capital Long before manufactur-
ing on a large scale became an ele-
sment in the city's growth it had
taken on a metropolitan atmosphere
as a result of its true trade poten-
tialities.
1t is estimated that more than eighteen
thousand persons visit Indianapolis every
day, coming over the steam and electric
lines. Many others come by automobile
And small town and country people

NEAR CENTER OF
POPULATION.
"Our location near the center Of pop
ulation gives US a most decided advan-
tsge in the distribution of manufactured
and jobbing articles. The average haul
from Indianapolis to the densely popu-
lated portions Of our country is less than
from any other large distributing point
and inasmuch as at the present time the
rates are fixed with relation to distance,
1t logically follows that our aggregate
transportation costs would be lower, as
our average haul is lower. Our prox-
unity to the coal fields assures us Of Il
prompt and adequate supply of fuel and
our inbound rates on raw materials are
relatively adjusted with the general sys-
