CANADIAN CLUB WOMEN

Club women of Canada have organ
lied into a Federation of WOmen's In
StituteS, of which Miss Isabel Noble of
Daysland, Alberta. is President. There
are 100000 club women in this organ
ization and it is the desire of Miss
Noble that the Canadian and Ameri-
can club women affiliate.
For Home and Country, is the
slogan of the Canadian Federation
of Women's Institute. It's object. as
stated by Miss Nbble, is: to better wO-
mems condition on the farm, to bring
town and country women closer in
touch with one another, and to do
verything to make women'S place 4
larger one and her life broader, to the
end that she may be of greater use to
herself and service to her community.
The Federation has seven depart
mentS of work: child welfare and pub
lie health; education and better
schools: legislation; immigration {;
household economies; agriculture; and
publicity.

PATTERN ECONOMY

Strange how slow we are about
learning some of the simplest things
which have to do with our daily
lives. In he making of cakes, for
instance, we Used to have several
hundred recipes, one for each var
iety; and we COUNT make any cake
without the recipe for that partic>
ular species.
Finally somebody discovered the
principles of cake making, the rules
of proportion and substitution and
what each of the different ingredi
ents would do. With this standard
recipe in mind, and the principles
understood. we now adapt it to in
finite variations.
As to dress-making. it was for
merry our habit to look over the
fashion plates, select the style
which pleased our fancy, and inn
mediately buy pattern. At last,
somebody has discovered that dres-
seS, too, can be reduced to rules
and regulations; that changes Of
line and proportion go according to
system; and that any bright wo-
man, with one standard lNttern. can
adapt it to all the styles even Paris
can concoct.
Domestic science teachers are in
Structing classes everywhere in this
gentle art. and perhap the fact that
pattern prices have doubled and
trebled has had an exhilarating eff

Nowadays the resourceful needle
woman has a pattern of cambria fit

all the notches, the width of seams,
and all other details of indication.
From this she makes dresses. wide

WOMEN AS INVENTORS

In early times it was necessary that
males be always ready to fight to
protect the tribe. 1t fell upon women
to perform the arts Of peace; to till
the soil. cook the food provide uten-
sis, tools. make clothing and build
shelter.
Necessity, as additionally. was the
mother of invention. From clay. she
devised the making of dishes; from
bone she made needles and other tools;
she invented WAYS of curing meat ETC.,
of keeping foods, OF fastening skins
together-Sewng-or wigwam build
ing. She invented the eScheme of grind
ing corn between two stones, and what
did she not invent while her lord lit
orally kept the Wolf from the door,
We have come 20 think of men in
these latter days as the inventors: but
If the "inside history" of every inven-
tion were known, we should see that
many of the inventions attributed to
men We're aided and bettered by their
wives or women friends, who made the
necessary suggestion or gave 4 hint
which was mechanically applied by
the male to whom was attributed the
glory.

A KEEP CLEAN VERSUS A MAKE
CLEAN

Weary with housekeeping, we are
ready now to listen to some sugges-
tions about how to avoid the semi
annual tear-up. Here are a few:
Keep dirt out of the house by clean
ing porches ard walks, etc, often, and
close up the house when you see a
wind storm heading your way.
Insist that muddy coats and shoes
be left outside.
Have the family use door-mat.
Rid the house of dust-catchers. fam
cy holdings, carved furnishings,
drapes, rough-fnish walls, upholstery,
and bric-a-brac.
Remove the dirt when You clean. Do
not fit it about when sweeping or
out of place and should leave in neat
busting. The vacuum cleaner is use
full here
Do a little heavy or special cleaning
each week and avoid its piling up.
Have the necessary tools to make
cleaning easy and keep them together
in a convenient place.
Use water and cleaning agents spar
! inglv or they will spoil finishes and
weaken glue, paste or cement.
If pests Of any kind appear get rid
of them promptly before they have
time to do much damage or to multi
| ply.
Induce all the family to help as
much as possible to keep the home
clean. The cooperative spirit makes
for "home. sweet home" and if all bear
it in mind, each will appreciate more
what it means to have a clean home
end the effort it takes to keep it so
Each one should. at least. put away
in good condition the things he gets
the Gaming business. There is an in.
order the spot and appliances he has
| lust used.

TANNING OF THE DOG

In the early part Of the Stone
Age, man had no friend among the
animals. All were afraid of him or
else tried to kill him. Then man
made friends with the dog!
The dog is related to the wolf. It's
ancestors are believed to have been
one branch of the wolf family.
From this branch developed an ami
NAL which was half-wolf, half
dog. We may cali this animal a
wild dog"
How did men first tame the wild
dog? The facts about that have
been lost in the dim and misty past.
This is another case in which we
must use our imagination.
We know that early hunters often
killed this wild dog. They ate it
for food.
On one Of the hunting expeditions,
let us suppose, q man killed a dog
which was the mother of some lit
tie puppies. The hunter did not no
tice the puppies. Later in the day,
let US think of two Children boy
and a girl playing in the woods.
Suddenly the girl cried out:
ooh, look! There is a cute little
animal that can hardly walk"
The boy looked and saw little
lets catch it," he said.
In a moment, they had captured
the puppy; the boy told the girl
she could have it.
There's another one" exclaimed
the boy, and he ran and picked it up.
The children took the puppies to
the cave with them.
"Ahaw said the father, when he
caught sight of the children.
"You have some little dogs that
are still alive. Huh, that's funny!
Well, bring them here and I'll
kill them. They will make fine
eating"
ooh, father!" shrieked the little
girl. Don't kill these poor little
things. Let Us keep them while
they grow
Please let us keep them" said
the bow.

The old hunter was surprised. He
had never heard of such thing. He
thought the children foolish, and
was about to take the puppies and
kill them, when he noticed tears in
the little girls eyes. The father
paused.
"Now, now little girl" he said, in
voice that was gruff but also
tender, "if you feel so bad about it,
I'll let the things live. Don't cry
any more"
The children jumped for glee.
They kept the puppies and fed them
As the puppies grew into dogs, they
loved the children and watched over
them.

the tanning of the dog came about
in just this way, but it is very prob
able that people first made pets OF

THE WOMAN CITIZEN
Mnnld Outlaw Mars

There is one great beside surglng
I'D in the breasts of both men and
women today. In women, 1t IS surg
ing even a little more tran IN men;
and in some more than in others
This desire is that war shall never
be again.
Women are more keen for it than
their mates, because it is harder to
love and stay at home and wait
than it is to go and fight; and the
hearts of woman-kind have perhaps
bled more through the ages, at the
ravages Of war, than those of the
sterner sex.
A few years ago, it seemed d
Utopian dream-to put an end to
war. 1t was a beautiful ideal we
held up as a motive for the World
War. but we did not more than half
believe it practical.
Now. with associations of all
kinds in MANY nations, Joining
hands IN the effort, we feel that it
is only a matter of time until we
shall beat our swords into plow-
shares.

and specifically for this purpose
are: the international League for
Peace, of which Jane Adams is
president: the National Council for
Disarmament in the United States;
the League Of Women Voters; the
international Y. w. c. A.. the Fed
Grafton of Women's Clubs: and 30
other affiliated organizations: the
International Council of Women,
representing thirty-six million wo-
men in all countries; the Women's
League for Peace and Freedom;
the Busir ess and Professional Wo-
mems Clubs; and nobody knows ex-
actlv how many others.
The iGea now is, not merely to
regulate war" but to outlaw it al
together-to make it a crime for
any nation to enter into war, the
same as it is crime for any indi-
vidual to settle his ouarrels by q
street fight instead of bringing
them into court.

HOW TO BE PRETTY

If you want to be pretty-and who
doesn't map out for yourself the
proper program of life, and there you
are.
Have | proven it? Of course not,
but what matter-you take the recon-
mendation of a bald-headed barber for
a guaranteed hair-tonic, and you
might Just as reasonably take this
from me.
To be beautiful:
Live regularly and temperately,
sleeping every night either IN the
open or with the windows raised wide,
Eat generously of Vegetables and
fruits, sparingly of starches and Su-
CARS and meats, and drink great deal
of water.
Exercise daily in the open air. II
YOU can play a game so much the bet
ter. for that will inject pep into you,
and give Won a sparkle in your eye
and elasticity in your step.
Battle often enough to keep your
skin clean and well ventilated.
The mental is fifty-fifty with the
physical in making you pretty. Do
not worry nor strain. but be happily
active. your mind filled with beautiful
images. sweet dreams, ennobling
thoughts. and kindly purposes, and
cultivate a real interest in people and
things. No sluggish intellect can
project a beautiful face A tense OF
harassed face is not pretty, and Meth
err is a stupid one.
To be sure, all this will not give you
symmetrical eyebrows. an Apollo nose
a three-cornered, kiss-inviting mouth,
nor the regular features Of movie
star. But keen intellect and a gra-
cious soul give a beauty of expression
which. if combined with a shaDely
form and a clear complexion, go a lo;>%
wav toward beauty.
There is one more point, however.
You must be, to a certain extent, in
STYLE. or YOU will look garish and
crude. rather than attractive. Even
more, you must be artistic IN get-uD.
UNDERSTANDING the principles of line
and color and harmony.
Yes. it is some lob to be pretty. That
is the reason so few of us succeed in
holding ourselves 10 TO it. Don't you
wish we had available personal beauty
experts whom we could consult about
our appearance. lust as we have arch
fleets for buildings and landscape
gardeners for grounds?

The Canning Season


Fruit is plentiful this year and
housewives are almost swamped with
the canin cuisines. There is an in
stinctive joy-a sort of ant or busy
bee joy-in storing away goodies for
the winter, but oh, the strenuousness
and backacheI Never mind, they tell
US we won't be doing it few years
hence. The commercial cannery will
take care of it for US as the knitting
mill, the bakery, and the laundry
do their jobs. wholesale
now. Then. too, there's another alter
native up the sleeves of the Future.
When refrigeration is further per-
fected the IDEAL way will be- to cold
store it, fresh and raw. and we may
buy it in mid-winter looking and tast-
ing as if just picked. Then will the
old hymn be really true: "Decem-
hers as pleasant as May" And the
backache will be amputated from
fruit season!

sugar, and proteins are found in ba-
nanas, beans. peas and in other fruits
and vegetables.
Fruits and vegetables are largely
water and we need that. too. When
they can be eaten raw, they are better
so. Cooking often destroys the vita
minis. Much of the mineral matter is
dissolved and wasted in the water IN
which they are cooked. For this rea-
son use as little water as you can and
make use of it as food if possible.
Fortunately a great many of us may
pick all this treasure from "our own
vine and fg-tree," or we may buy it
of the truck-man or fruit vender at
the door
