Passing Events From Woman’s Point of View
The following bright anecdotes,
which might be called "Aftermath of
the Federation Meeting at Tlfton," are
from the ready pen of .Mrs. Hugh WII-
let, who Is vice president of the Geor
gia Federation of Women's Clubs, and
who has for a number of years been
prominently active In club work In
Georgia:
The morning after the dosing ex
ercises of the Federation convention
last week In Tlfton, visitors were drlv.
en In carriages to view the sights In
and around the magic lumber city of
Georgia. These parties scattered
every direction. One of the visitors
expressed a desire to renew her youth
by going to a sugar cane grinding. We
were directed to a place about two
miles In the country, where we found
a small farm house occupied by a
kindly, gentle-faced woman, n widow.
She Informed us that she had finished
grinding a few hours previous to out ar
rival, working through the night in
order to get off her fast kettle of syr
up. Notwithstanding her farm duties,
her household cart*, her futlgue con
sequent upon this milled burden of
syrup making,* she .••(used to let us
leave disappointed, it Misting that she
(ould easily have fresh one Juice in a
short while. 8he gay# orders to a
young boy to gel a iniile to turn the
small primitive cane press, not far
from the house.
"Great heaps of crushed cane stnlks.
useless after the Juice had been ex
tracted, were lying near the milt und
the odor of fermentation* suggested
nearness to a brewery. The necessity
green cane was soon In evidence und
for tjie meie gratification of two worn-
n, a real sugar cane mill was put in
operation. The Juice, sweet as It was,
did not. however, have the taste or
flavor of the long ago.
This reminds me that It Is an un

Iclstn* from the foreign pres*. The
News Wiener Tagbl&tt says of the
planlate:
"A young fair-haired and blue-eyed
American, Mi** Kthel Newcomb, took
the sympathies of her nudlence by
storm Inst night, nnd deservedly, for
to the distinction of her outward ap
pearance I* added the perfect nobility of
her piano playing, which displays
bravura without indulging In any cheap
effect*. It was a deed of daring to
play the concerto of Hchuniunn at the
good-bye concert of a prlina donna, and
Ml** Newcomb can estimate her well-
deserved great succes* nil the higher.
This wonderful composition, which has
not been In the front so much of late,
obtained 11 thoroughly refreshing effect
through flic extremely poetical style of
the American debutante. She I*, a*
we understand, a former dlstlnguiHhed
pupil of our old master, Leschetlzky,
who ha* added now to the great num
ber of photo player* who haye Issued
from hi* school one whom we shall al
ways be glad to hear."
And from The Fremden Hiatt of 190.1:
"Miss Kthel Newcomb, a promising
product of the piano school of the piano
•Master In the Cottage.' took tht* oc
casion of her countrywoman's concert
to launch herself successfully In pub
lic. She played Schumann's* piano con
certo with brilliant technique, charm
ing touch and a One feeling for Its
melodic phrasing. This slightly built
young lady, with her delicate hands,
does honor to her muster, I.eHchetisUy,
and well deserved the applause she re
el ved. She will certainly give us oo-
hsIou again some day to speak of her
powers In greater detail."
Mrs. Lucfon L. Cocke, a former At
lanta woman, who |h now a resident of
Roanoke, Va., Is a prominent factor
In the great Southwest Virginia Fall
Festival which Is being held at present
III Roanoke. Mrs. Cocke Is president
of the Woman's Civic Hetferment Club
of Roanoke and the success of tho fes
tival Is largely due to her untiling ef
forts.
The following dipping from the
Roanoke paper will give some Idea of
this unique enterprise:

The yenr-book Just published gives much
of Interest regard lux the work of Hull
House, and the following detail* of the
work done there Is token largely therefrom:
Hull House, the old homestead «f Mr.

provide n center for a higher civic and so

investigate nnd Improve conditions In the
Industrial districts of Chicago."
Forty-tiro men and women comprise the
residential force; they all arc engaged In
•elf-sustnlnlng occupation*. nnd giro their
leisure to the house. No university odnea
tlou Is deinaudcd from the residents, though
the. majority are roJIege people. Residents
are pledged to remain two years, nt least.
Very few salaries are paid nt (lull House,
nnd those only for technical services. Tli* 1
expense* of the residents ure defrayed by
themselves, under the direction of n house
committee, ou the plan of a co-operative
club.
One hundred and fifty people cocie each
week to Hull llcnxe. either us teacher* or
directors of dubs. Many of these ^u»n-resi

The rcsldents’aro confident, however, that
growth, either In buildings or numbers,
counts for little unless the settlement Is

that the success of the undertaking Is

Hovers! of Hull House educational enter
prises have developed through the effort
made to bridge the past life In Kurupe with
American experiences. In such a manner ns
to give them both some meaning and sense
of relation. The Hull House Labor Museum
was In the first instance suggested nr
tunny people In the neighborhood who bad
come directly from country places lu south
eastern Europe, lu which Industrial proc-
•**oes arc still carried on by the most priml
live method*. It wan nor unusual to find
an old Italian woman holding a distaff and
spinning with the simple stick spindle
which bad certainly been used In the days
when David :eu«led bis sheep at Bethlehem.
There were In the Immediate neighborhood
at lease four varieties of these most primi
tive methods of snfitnlng. nnd at least three
distinct variations of the •nine spindle put
In connection with wheels. These seven
methods are arranged futo historic sequence
nnd order, nnd to connect the wltofe wtlh
(he present method of factory spinning.
The name thing is done for wearing, and
on every Saturday evening an exhibit Is
made of these "various forms of labor" In
the textile Indttatry.

*11 the
truth* we bad learned, was uppermost
In our minds. We fancied that his ln«
terest lay solely In the commercial
value tir use of the lumber. To our
iinmcement and delight, however, a
few questions revealed to us the fact
that though an uneducated person, he
was n child of na\uv who bad pntilted
by her lessons. He told us the story of
the young tree and explained how we
could determine ft* age and history' by
examining Its heifrt. The ««e Is dls.
covered by counting the number of
rings or layers within Its clrcumfer*
ence. We Inquired why the rings burg, congressman «»f this district, lias
agreed to use hi* bent personal efforts
exist here. All Virginian* of this
Hon nre, therefore, greatly Interested
In the success of n movement of this
kind. The citizens of Roanoke have
entered Into the project with great
earnest neks, und committees have been
formed representing every business
profession nnd labor organisation. It
Is due to their enterprise that the poo-
pie of southwest Virginia should lend
a helping band, a* whatever will ad
vance the interests of Roanoke will
have a corresponding effect upon the
prosperity of the large section of the
Old Dominion eontrlbutary thereto.
The Hon. Carter Glass, of Lynch-
nearest the center are thicker than the
outer ones near tha bark, and werd
told the growth of the tree during the
first few years Is much more rapid
than afterwards. It is possible to learn
also the reasons for the varying thick
ness or thinness of these tings, and
also the seasons for the varying thick
ness of the rings on the different sides
of the same tree. The tree may be
« rowded on one side by roots of neigh
boring trees and may be too much
shaded for normal development. Where
most favorable conditions exist on the
other side the fiber flourishes and at
tains n greater thickness. We could
see mark* on some of the logs show
ing where the tree had received some
Injuries In years past, and nature hud
concealed the wounds by covering them
with new growth.
"Taking out his knife any! cutting off
a piece ot bark, he called our attention
to the white Inner lining growing Just
beneath th" surface, and explained that
this develop* into a ring. Indicating an
other year’s growth. Thus the stu

tary, Mr*. layman Hall:
Now that The Georgian, with it*

ciation stand* for the spiritual. Intel
lectual. physical and social develop
ment of women. Jn other words, the
aHNociatlnn strive* for the development
of *11 that Is noblest In woman. I* It
<P be wondered at. then, that with such
an aim life organisation appeals to
right thinking women nil over the

from thirty-eight countries—from In
dia. China, Japan. Australia, New
Zealand and far a* 8t. Petersburg;
from Great Britain and Ireland; from
many countries in Europe, nnd. to

As the work spread through Eng
land, Scotland, Ireland and Wales. It
took such hold on the people that they
were anxious to Introduce It on the

derstand what a blesallng the boarding
home of a Y. W. <*. A. must be.
In France the work is-rapidly pro
gressing. In Pnrls a year ago a beau
tiful building was erected In the Latin
quarter for the students attending the
art schools. There Is also In Paris u
