CLUB HOUSE FOR THOMSON
WOMAN S CLUB.
The club house for which the Thom
son 'Woman’s Club has been working
for a number of years seems about
to materialize. Two difficulties have
been in the way; a lack of funds and
the seeming impossibility of securing
r, V/^tion The funds are slowly
growing with prospects of augmenta-
..o.i tms ciub year, and the question
of a location seems to have been set
tled. At the next meeting of the
club, at the school auditorium Oct.
8th, this matter will be taken up.
As the president v hes every club
member to have a w ce in tbe set
tling of this important question, she
urges that every men er and every
woman in the town a 1 county who
wishes to join the club, be^ present
at this time.
A permanent home is one of the
best methods of establishing a per
manent club and to look back over
the achievements of the Thomson
Woman’s Club leaves no doubt in
anyone’s mind as to the value a club
is to a town.
Statue Put to Use

ian goddess of Berlin, Germany, In
the Alexnnderplatz, has been fitted with
u false right arm and hand, which

CLUB MEMBERSHIP.
The number of members a club has
will be registered with the state fed
eration on December 1st. The Thom
son club should show its full strength
by that time. Let everyone who is on
the membership committee be ready
to pass over her job to some one else
by the next meeting. Remember you
are relieved from serving on the com
mittee as soon as you secure a new
member. The next meeting will be
very interesting for a number of rea
sons and we would like the new mem
bers to enjoy it. If anyone has not
been asked to join yet, speak to a
club member about it. The work
being done by the club is of interest
to every woman in town and we would
like to have the cooperation of every
one.
REDPATH LYCEUM TO BRING
PLAY HERE IN JANUARY.
The Redpath Lyceum will present
a play in Thomson in January under
the auspices of the Thomson Woman's
Club. The play, which is a mystery
play of the type of the Cat and the
Canary and the Bat, abounds in thrills
relieved by delightful humor. Those
who witnessed the plays of the Red
path Chautauqua, Nothing But the
Truth and It Pays to Advertise, know
the finished performance these com
panies present.
The bringing of the play to Thom
son is in line with the Woman’s Club
policy to bring high grade attrac
tions to Thomson.
America, the wonderful Griffith
moving picture play will be the club’s
offering for December.
BAZAAR NOTES.
A most amusing and interesting
midway is being arranged for the
bazaar. '
Will club members who can do em
broidery and dainty hand work com
municate with the president?
Is there any kind of handicraft you
especially like to do and would like
to build up a market for it? Let
the president know. We are looking
for that kind of work for the bazaar
and will sell it for you on commis
sion.
Have you carried your material to
Miss Blossie Scott yet? We do not
want to work the fancy work com
mittee too hard at the last minute.
And we want to have a large number
of dainty gifts to sell. No need to
go to the city for them.
Is there any especial gift you would
like to buy? Notify the president
and she will have some member to
make it.
We will have a country store. If
you have any particularly attractive
canned goods, pickles or preserves
you wish to donate or sell on commis
sion, let us know.
