Concerning the Appearance
Of Woman'* (loan* and Hat*
Worn at Club Convention*.
The approaching convention of the
Georgia Federation of Woman'* Club#
to be held In Columbus, naturally
bring* thoughts and talk around to
women'* cluli* In general and their
convention* In particular.
Kveryone is making some comment
on the happenings of the tdennlal In ,
Denver last June, and almost without
exception these comments have to >lo
with the gowns and hats worn at that
time and the effect they produced. Hr- j
eryone will remember that the newspa- .
per Issues of that time were largely j
tilled with elaborate descriptions of i
the toilets worn at the various sessions.
The correspondents from all oyer the
country wrote so much about Mrs. So
aud-So's gown and Mrs. Otherwoman's
jewels that there was no spare left In
the columns of the daily prints for
the actual happenings of the conven
tion. and the disgusted editor had, to
wire their representatives frantically:
"Send us convention proceedings, and
not fashions."
A greater commotion. It will be re
membered was created by Mrs. Tod
Helmutb. of New York, wearings4o,ooo
worth of diamonds with superb tolets
than was caused by eny question that
came up for the grave discussion of
the clubs. Looking hack upon It now,
I cannot remember having read of a
single one of th- se discussions occu
pying the minds of the cultured mem
ber, and yet. 1 recall numberless arti
cles commenting upon the clothes
worn. One really serious weekly jour
nal devoted a column to a strictly phil
osophical discussion of the inappropri
ateness of shirt-waists for the Denver
delegation for other thau (ravel
ing purposes: and then proceeded to
enumerate In detail the various mate-

Effect Dependent I'pon Appearance.
Of course there 1* always an extreme
in these things, and perhaps the comic
papers have some reason for poking
fun at the large part fashion plays In
club conventions; but It ts unquestion
ably true that appearance has a great
deal to do with th-.i effect produced by
a speaker. Of course no sane persoa
1 would for a moment Intimate that
what a woman has to say and her way
of saying it are not the first consider
ation; but there can be no!
doubt of the fact that what
Its said has a much stronger
I effect when the speaker's appearance
ts pleasing. Harmony In woman’s
dress Is never so greatly appreciated
as when that woman faces a large au
dience from a public platform. The
wish of the witty club wrfman that
someone would invent a bonnet that
would prove satisfactory for "long
range inspection" has been echoed by
more than one who has bad to spend
lengthy hours listening to women
speakers. The outlines and colors that
are attractive close at hand—ln a mir
ror for instance —are oftentimes the
opposite of graceful or becoming when
seen from on entirely different angle.
It is because great histrionic artists
and the lesser lights of the stage real
ize this that so much attention is paid
Ito the toilets of actresses. There can
surely be no harm in the woman
speaker desiring to make as pleasing
an impression as jher sister behind the
footlights.

her, the second night when she ap
peared In pale and altogether uncertain
yellow. This I* really pronounced
philosophy of dress, and the woman
philosopher will never appear on a
platform In a costume too extreme In
style, too elaborate In trimming, and
too Intense or- too unprcaounrcd in
color.
This ph' osophy of dress goes much
further. Only the young and happy
and beautiful should wear unrelieved
black, while the 01-er women should
brighten themselves up. A young wo
man at an old ladies’ tea recently
amused herself mentally dressing up
the dozen gueat* who came to do hon
or to their friend's seventieth birthday,
everyone of them in sombre black, and
most of them with crepe veils.
A stately woman with snow-white
hair anil the complexion of a girl, she
decided she would dress In royal pur
ple velvet. The dainty little woman so
like a frail flower she mentally gowned
In silver gray with a sheen to it. The
pale woman she thought needed a
touch of crimson near the throat; and
the dark-eyed one next her, masses of
creamy* 'ace. Black and white striped
satin was selected for the gown of
one, and a rich dahlia for another;
while a third was simply lovely In gol
den brown. Only one must wear black
and that was of velvet wuh a great
deal of jet about it.
How the dear old ladles laughed
when they heard of the dressing-up
given them, and how they shook their
heads when they said that their young
friend regarded them from a Northern
point of view.
The North Versus the South.
That is just where it comes in. this
philosophy of dress, the point-of-vlew
of the North: and in spite of being ae
rused of rank heresy, this particular
Southerner must confess diat the
Northern point of view- in this partic
ular Instance Is one superior to that of
the South. As the oft-referred to bi-

ennial, It was observed that while the \
younger Southern women were dressed
quite as well as their Northern con
temporaries, the older women of tbs
South failed to make a pleasant Im
pression regarding personal apiwwr
ance as did the Northerners. The dif
ference I* that those who live above
Mason and Dixon's line never ac
knowledge even to themselves that
they are old, and so long after the age
at which Southerners begin to adopt
unostentatious black exclusively they
design aud wear gowns as attractive as
though entirely different from those
worn by their daughters. A white
haired Northern woman of sixty, for
instance. Is lovely in a dinner gown
of white crepe-de-chene with yoke and
high collar of musaeline, and with
rare lace* falling over her hands, while
her Southern contemporary la just as

It remains to be seen what our pret

but It Is safe to say they will produce
a pleasing effect personally as well 33
a lasting effect Intellectually.
A Han's Idea of Woman’s Clubs.
Apropos of club women it is not out
of place here to quote extracts from a
few of the letters showered upon Sir
Walter Besant in response to his in
quiries regarding the plan of organi
zation of American clubs to be fol
lowed by him In his ambition to form
in England clubs, that will “bring wo
men together, accustom them to work
ing together, help them to define their
thoughts a<ul clear their minds; and
not only try to cultivate them from a
literary or aesthetic point of view, but
also render them better fitted to deal
with those social questions and diffi
culties iu which woman's hand is. in
this (England) country at least, sadly
wanting."

But the funniest letter l* from a msa
who claims to know everything know
able about women's clubs;
For Social Amusement.
"The club or circle.” he writes, "l»
simply a convenient form of organiza
tion for acciat amusement. It begins
with a solemn program devised with
a view to milking conversation of every
species legitimate. If Its excuse for
being should be Shakespeare, It con
siders and costumers and customs of
the place and time of each play, and
the lives of all the actors who have
ever taken part in It. and subjects ara
distributed among tbe members amid
cries of 'Oh, 1 can't do that!’ As a
rule they do not 'do that, and the only
persons who prepare papers are those
conscious that Heaven wdl never give
them any frivolous opportunity of dis
tinguishing themselves In a ball-room.'*
Concerning the American icub “ef
fects," he says: "The first effect Is to
give tbe officers and chief members an
opportunity to advertise themselves
es philanthropic and intellectual * *
! Third, to pass away tbe time, always
the desire of students." Speaking of
two fashionable clubs, he says: "The
members of one of these are every
thing that young ladies should be, ex
cept students, and there are even a
fpw students among them. They have
more than once performed Greek trag
edies tn eostume and translation. Both
of these clubs probably do good by in
ducing their members to think of
something besides clothes, chocolates
and the duty of having the best of
each; but es a woman of growing In
tellectual improvement, they represent
an enormous waste of power. „
