Logan Payne Co. * GHICAGO Saw YORE BOSTON atic Onward and Upward ‘The gathering in Bismarck today of the club women of North Dakota marks an event which will be long remembered here and which is especially significant as a sign of the times. Representatives of one of the most powerful groups in North Dakota will transact their business here and, if the hopes of local club women and the citizenry gen- erally come true, they will have such a pleasant time that they will be loud in their praises of the capital city when they return home. That is Bismarck’s hope and every Bismarck hand will be turned to the job of making the hope come true. The broad significance of the convention, however, lies in the fact that it demonstrates clearly the part which women are taking in affairs outside their homes. This is shown most clearly by the number and scope of the departments which the state and national fed- erations of women’s clubs operate. It is so long singe the old adage “the woman’s place is in the home” has been uttered in @ serious mood that to talk about it is commonplace, for, regardless of what some persons may ‘think, the modern woman’s place is whatever sphere she may choose to enter. Professional women are found practically every- where, They are doctors, dentists and, occasionally, one even hears of a woman plumber or blacksmith. Women work, nowadays, when and where they please or wherever they can find profitable occupation. With many of the club women here’ today, however, it is a different matter, Most of them have husbands and many are the mothers of children. For the most part, the club women of the country are those whose primary sphere is the home. Their minds, however, are not wholly centered there. They look at the activities going on about them and have no intention of failing to be a part of them. Home- making no longer is a mere routine of cooking and scrubbing and looking after children, The woman who does her own work has the aid of modern machinery and ingenious devices to make her tasks. easier and more quickly done. She has leisure which was denied to the woman of a generation or to ego, regardless of whether she depends on her husband to do the bread- winning or makes her own way. Tt was not to be expected that women with active minds and a creative urge would sit idly with time on their hands. The modern woman’s contacts are broad and she sees scores of instances in which she can be of help. In many cases, however, the things which women believe should be done could not be carried out success- fully by one alone. Numbers and organization were necessary, and thus the women’s clubs, long regarded as purely social affairs, found a new use for the brains and energy of their members, The clubs became active in civic affairs. To be sure, the leadership of public enterprises still is largely supplied by men, but in every community women’s organizations are taking an increasingly ac- tive part and for many years they have been picking up the loose ends in a way for which men have neither taste nor genius. Philosophers have declared women to be the balance wheels of the social order. More and more they are Performing the functions of a balance wheel for the civic, political, commercial and industrial organizations of the country. And this movement has been led and directed largely by women’s organizations, such as those whose representatives are meeting here today. They have opened up to women a new consciousness / of their ability; a new realization of their powers, both as individuals and as organized groups, In their vary- ing fields of activity they have contributed much to the social and economic orders, They have made construc- tive-thinking men appreciate the important position which intelligent womanhood holds, outside the home as well as within it, _. They have done constructive work and for that they deserve the thanks and praise of “everyone, men as well as women, A program to be followed out by the North Dakota federation during the next two years will be adopted here. There is every reason to believe that it will be ® constructive one. That is assured by the past his- tory of the organization. “And as it greets the delegates wh: the slogan “Onward and Upward.” : The Progress of womanhood and of the club movement makes this inevitable. Sound Judgment To many persons, particularly men who may have watermelon patches as boys, an item in The of Monday will a thought i kr ae bring ught of admiration in that light, Mrs. Kredler’s act in being friendly with the boys of her neighborhood was comparable to tak- ing out an insurance policy on her watermelon patch. The melons used at the party were the premium paid for the policy. Had Mrs. Kredler depended on a watchdog, or charged electric wires or any number of other devices which proprietors of -watermelon patches have been known to use, the result might have been different. Such things constitute a challenge, and a challenge which would have. stirred the ingenuity of the boys in the neighborhood. The knowledge that Mrs, Kredler was a “good sport” also was a challenge, but one of a different sort. It was a challenge to the boys’ better nature and their sense of fairness, ‘We venture to say that any lad who raids Mrs, Kred- ler’s watermelon patch will be properly taken care of by the other members of the various boy “gangs” which probably: exist around Stanton just as they exist else- where in this country. Boys are boys wherever you find them, and we have great confidence in their sense of justice and fairness. Progress in the Orient From Japan comes the rather startling information that the baseball teams,of several Japanese universities are playing ring-around-the-rosy with the baseball team of the University of Chicago. The Maroons from the windy city have been sending their baseball teams to Japan for many years and their appearances in the Orient have been largely responsible for establishing baseball as a major sport in Japan. The worm is turning, however, in so far as American supremacy on the baseball diamond is concerned. On their first trips, the Chicago team had little difficulty in setting up impressive records. The only question when a game started was what the score would be. Now, however, it is different. One Japanese uni- versity won five games in a row from the American invaders. Then another took up the burden and in the first game defeated their white opponents 7 to 6, It may be that the team representing the big mid- west school is not as capable as the teams which have crossed the Pacific in past years. It seems a more rea- sonable, assumption, however, that the Japanese are turning out better baseball players now than they used to, pny With their flair for modernity, the Japanese have taken a strong liking for baseball as we know it and many Japanese children who used to play a sort of Japanese battledore are now learning to pitch curves. It is easily within the range of possibility that a) Japanese Babe Ruth or Walter Johnson ‘may some day be standing American batters on their heads, and that the world series as we know it will be merely an elimi- nation contest to decide which American team shall go abroad and decide a real world’s: championship. “This is pretty hard to beat,” said the cop as he rounded his block in the town's toughest section.

This is the open sea~ son for editorials on school, the thrill of going back and starting again, the chance to do this year what you failed to do last year! And trite though the subject is after hundreds of years of comment, there still re- mains the fact that almost all of the old platitudes are true. It isn’t very often that we do have an opportunity to make a new start, and the things that we may ac- complish during the coming year are waiting for our energy and thought. School days—they are your best days, the happy camaraderie you find there never does return in just the same way. You students coming hack | to school here, be glad! Thrill to these fleeting years, make the most of them—too short, once over, you can never recapture quite that spirit.

Their exaggerated grotesque maneuver- ings were vastly entertaining to Collier: He laughed a great deal and declared that it was more fun than a show, Mona said it reminded her of some of the places she had been to in Chicago. “You know, where the dance tickets sell for ten cents apiece.

After 10 years’ residence here they decided to settle in America. They left Holland in a ship called the Speedwell to go to Southampton, in England, where friends were to join them in another ship, the Mayflower. When they started for America, the Speedwell was found leaking so passengers from both ships were crowded on the May- flower, After a stormy crossing the ‘ship reached the shares of Cape Cod, Mas- “Your friend is not a hiding her all this time 2" Anne Winter's dark eyes shone with excitement, He logked at her gravely, holding her sparkling eyes with his own. “I wasn't fooling,” he told her, “when I said there was something in your voice that would get them.

Collins had sent him an invitation with a map drawn on it, but despite its ex- plicit directions, Rorimer lost his way twice; aid twice he had to descend hills to the main road and take his bearings over. “This time,” he informed Anne, “I'm going to keep my mind on where we're going, instead of on my passenger, and take a look at the signs.” And he began then to make use of his spotlight. “Col- ns,” he said, “doesn’t live in Cal- ifornia; he lives fn Crete.
