At the roll call at the morning ses sion thers were represntntlves from five towns. —Mrs. Z. I. Fitzpatrick, president of the tenth district; Mrs. H. N. Hardeman, of l,ouisvllle; Mis* Kva laird Murphey, of Mllledgevllle; Mrs T. V MeCarty, of Hsndrrsvllle, end Mrs. E. T. Hhlrley. Mrs. W. 1,. Bhlrley snd Mrs. W. W. I'llcher, of Warren ton. The meeting was railed to order b» Miss Ethel llirks, president of the Phllumalblc Club, who spoke of the occasion and facetiously alluded to thn PhUomuthle Club as the grandmother or Augusta clubs, after which Mrs. A H. Brenner, president of the Tenth District of Woman’s Clubs, presided I and Introduced Hev. (I. Sherwood Whitney, who led the devotional serv ices and paid beautiful tribute to the sainted woman whose life hud been given up to ihe snullnratlng of Irk some conditions, to work tor others ami who lihil yet always found time In the midst of sn unusually busy life for her church work, which meant s" much to her mid others and whieh, us Mr Whitney beautifully expressed It, was the reason, the cunaa whieh msde her accomplish so much in other directions, -the late Mrs. II C. White, of Attiem-. whose tragic passing away occurred last spring in Augusta while an audience of Augusta women was awaiting her presence ut the Y. W. C. A., where she whs to ittlk on (Vde rated club*, and whose vital Interest was so strong amt warm in this work that It made It comparatively easy for her successor to follow In the path she hud blazed. At the conclusion of Mr. Whitney's address Miss Marie Moyer sweotly and sympathetically j rendered "1 Heard the Voice of Jesus." Mr* Lindsey Arrington being pre- j Vented from attending on account of Illness Mrs Emmett Arnold was In stalb d a* seereiary. Then- were delightful little address es by Mrs. W. N. Benton, Miss Annie Page and Miss Ethel Park*.—-little talks that, while brief and Informal, showed that much thought had been eipemUd on them snd every word ut tered told. Mias Pnge being particu larly happy In her talk on "Educa tlop." a subject of such wide and tre niondous scope. Mrg.

She spyike In beautiful terms of the brotherhood of man end sisterhood of womnn that Should obtain and of the splendid work tha wotrsn's clubs wars doing towards these enda. and for the good of chil dren everywhere. She dwelt on the feet that club women should he as Intereeted In the saving of young men as of young women, and quoted thu marvelous fact that ts so often re pentad In sociological circles of the descendants of Jonathan Edwards and MaX Jukes The former was horn In 1703 and over a thousand of his de ecendat :s* records have been exam ined. Out of them there have been thirteen presidents, (0 clergymen, 60 doctors, numberless prominent Judges, educators, members of congress, proa Idem* of railroads and banks, elo. Over thirty-five states have been helped by the Influence of his de scendants and good untold has been accomplished by them. Max Jukes lived In the same period as Jonathan dwards and was a criminal. Of a thousand of his descendants over threg hundred have died In almshouses, three hundred have died want. there hive been seven murderers, one hun dred snd thirty convicted of crime, and, altogether, his descendants have cost the country over one million do!, lars. Who that hears these two won derful record* can ask "Is it worth while to save one boy?" Mi*. Fitzpatrick spoke of the puh tic question* tha; the woman's clubs havs Interested themselves In. They have tisssed resolution* urging uni versal pence and expressing their con fidence In President Wilson's Mexi can policy. The resolution hua been sent to hint and he has replied to the club* with s note of appreciation They have worked successfully for the Home for Wayward lllrla and the president of the Georgia club* Is one of the two women In Georgia who hold state offices, as she has been appointed by the governor to serve on the board for the Homo for Wayward Girls.

Each club has Its local needs blit all should work for sn Industrial school at Tallulah Kail A for girls that Is kept by the state federation and for the "students' aid foundation." Any poor girl who desires to fit herself for teaching can procure the money for this purpose from tills fund, and does not have to return the money until she has a position and can re buy It by small monthly Installments. These are the two objects that tile state federation keeps up. One of the moat Interesting facts mentioned by Mrs. Fitzpatrick yesterday was the fact that Georgia ts the only state In the union that has a "sorority branch." and this has only been ac complished In the past few months and already there are over one thou sand young college women In Georgia who have Joined Ihe women's club under Ihe leadership of Miss Bessie Kemptiui, of Atlanta, who Is the stale chairman of sorority work. Mrs. Fitzpatrick closed her deeply Interesting address by urging that the women also Interest themselves In the, questions of sweat shops and child la ls>r and that they lake their part "In all tho world's problem* for the good of luune and the glory of God." Mrs. Brenner then Introduced Dr. Thomas Coleman, who represents the American Medical Society here and who had been requested to talk to the convention on the question of pub lic health. Ur. Coleman prefaced his address by saj lag that u certain man laid said he always knew us soon us he entered a town where there was a woman's club, and that he could al most sav that, as soon as he entered a home he could know if it was the home of a club woman. Dr. Coleman gave a most Important and Interesting talk on the subject of "Preventable Discuses," such as small pox. tuberculosis, malaria. typhoid fever, yellow fever, diphtheria, etc. lie g»ve their history and told of what steps hail been taken by the medical profession towards the elimination of these diseases The doctor paid his respects to "Damaged Goods” by say ing that he thought |t should he seen by every person over fifteen year* of age, but never presented to a mixed audience. Dr. Coleman’s address was free from technical terms so that all lie said could bo easily understood, und tt whs 11stciii'd to with tho closest attention and greatly appreciated by the club women present. Mrs. Hoke of Athens was then ask ed to speak to the convention and re sponded with a charming talk that Rheumatism Rsmarksbls Home Cure Given by One Who Had Wants Every Suffers** to Benefit.

Above statement true— Pub. l was filled with common sense and fine | advice and was cordially endorsed by every woman present. Shy began by I saying that she had never made a j speech In her life and that this would be her maiden effort. It was difficult to realize this, as she spoke with such ease and fluency. She began by speak ing of the deep Interest taken In the Augusta club by the late Mrs. White, of Athens, and of her desire for the formation of a federated club here. Mrs. Hoke mentioned the fact that there . re so many splendid societies among the Augusta women and that the only drawback to their successful work, according to the opinion she-had formed since coming here, was that they needed to do more effective work was to form a "city federation” that would bring them all together under some one leader, who was capable of direct) lg and leading. She spoke of the fact that when any hill Is up he fore the legislature that Ih important to women, the Athens Federation is often appealed to with the question "Will you use your influence for, or against this hill?” Augusta should be In a position to have this wonderful power of concert ed Influence that can only come from organization and co-operation. Mrs. Hoke spoke beautifully about the wonderful Influences women’s clubs were In getting the women of a community together. She dwelt with eloquence upon the truth that when a woman comes to a city from the country or from a neighboring town there are few that call upon her or try to make her feel at home in the Send coupon Ibr sample can of NESTLE’S enough for 12 times.

THE AUGUSTA HERALD, AUGUSTA, GA. community. She spoke of the way so many women take no interest in other women not in their “set,” and asked was there any common meeting ground in this or other cities for the women of the community hut the womens clubs. It should bring together all the bets women of the community—those who have always lived in the com munity and strangers—those of dif ferent churches and different religions —women of different sets and cliques —all these should be brought together by the women’s club. Mrs. Hoke then went on to speak of the broader work of the women's clubs outside of their own communi ties. For instance, there are seven in stitutions of learning established by the state for the boys and men of Georgia but only one, for women, though women pay the taxes that pro vide these institutions Just the same that the men do. And in not one of these state institutions Is there a hospital or infirmary for the boys. She pleaded for the club women to work towards the establishment of in firmaries In all of these Institutions and especially in Athens for the uni versity. She told the interesting fact that the Athens Club has three thou sand dollgrs already raised for this purpose and appealed to the patriot ism of the Augusta women to help In this purpose which is after all not for the benefit of boys who live in Athens and who are nursed at their homes when 111, but for the boys from Augusta and cities all over the state.

Mrs. Hoke was warmly ap plauded at the conclusion of her in formal talk. At one-thirty o’clock the .meeting was adjourned and the entire audi ence of club women regaled with a delicious luncheon served by the Phi lomathic Club in Confederate Hall and a charming social hour enjoyed. At two-thlrty the afternoon session opened with the minutes of the morn ing session being read by Mrs. Arnold after which Mrs. J. D. Hammond gave a most interesting talk on ‘Social Service,” followed by one equally as Interesting on "Home conomics" by Miss Eva Lord Murphey, of Milledge vllle. The presence of Miss Carolyn Cobb, of Atlanta, state chairman of the Drama League of America, added much to both the pleasure and inter est of thee convention. Miss Cobb spoke most eloquently on the subject of the Drama League and succeeded In Interesting every woman present In it. So interested did they become that the Philomathlc Club and the Woman’s Clubs will soon be identified with it and In this way start the ball rolling here and form a nucleus for the organization of a branch In Au gusta. At the conclusion of Miss Cobb's ; address the meeting was moved ad journed, the delegates departing with the most enthusiastic praise of the day’s convention, the luncheon and all at which they had been entertained by the Philomathlc Club, the Teachers’ Club, and the Augusta Woman’s Club, who were joint hostesses of the day. Question of Norwegian Emmigration to Canada Christiania.—The question of Nor wegian emmigration to Canada has been brought Into prominence by the trial of a libel suit against the editors of the brought by the agent of the Canadian Pacific Railway. The plaintiff In Ihe suit was David Jacobsen, who was until recently the Norwegian consul at Montreal. He returned to Norway re cently to take charge of the railway’s Immigration agency here. While In Canada Mr. Jacobsen sent reports to his government denouncing the alluring promises held out by the Canadian authorities for attracting Im migrants. He represented that the rail ways gave the most difficult work to Norwegian laborers, that these were in adequately paid and not well protected legally. On a trip home Mr. Jacobsen gave lectures In which he expressed the same views. Ihe libel suit was based on an article which criticised the former consul, com paring his work as agent to promote emigration to Canada to his consular utterances upon the subject.
