To make the patient listening world
resound
With sweeter music, sweeter, purer

A place where kindly, fitting words

And kindlier deeds are done, where
hearts are fed;
Where wealth of brain for novorty

Where hand clasps hand, and soul

Where victory ih the race for fame

To beckon others to the shinin" goal
This is a woman’s club, a Heaven

Where toilers drop an hour their
