The Equal Franchise League of Jacksonville held its first public meet- ing Tuesday evening, scoring a suc- cess which promises to extend throughout the State betore many months have pased. The meeting wos called to order by Mrs. Katherine iivingston Eagan, who at the first meeting held seven days ago was elected temporary president. As was previously announced, the program for the evening consisted of speeches by various ladies more prominent in the movement, Mrs, Eagan leading off with an address which described the present move- ment and the hardships encountered in getting started. Her address was in part as follows: *“When women began to form into clubs it was with fear and trem- bling of the criticism that would b made. [ recall the efforts first made by myself in starting the Woman'; Club of Jacksonville. 1 invited a number of ladies to my house many times for this purpose without ac- complishing good results. One cay three or four ladies would come, very cnthusiastic, the next time they would be absent and another group present. Finally in desperation three of the number who had been constant attendants, Mrs. D. U. Fletcher, Mrs. Lawrence Haynes and myself, decided that we would not accomplish anything by these meth- ods, 80 we sent one hundred postal cards, unsigned. Not one of us want- ed to stand sponsor for the move- ment. **Mrs. Dodge, of the Windsor hotel, Q4 Most progressive woman, gave us the use of the parlors ,and the popu- larity of the movement was shown by about fifty ladies attending. Of course, we did not get all the wom- | en we wanted to join. Many women | kave no moral courage, born from and ridicule, which is a strong fac- tor with the weak mind. Then many | women, from a strictly world view, | what their fashionabl: | wait to see neighbors say. “As you all know we might sav the Woman's Club of Jacksonvill has proved itself a strong factor in the public life of Jacksonville, manv people saving that it occupies the same place to women that the Board of Trade does to men, “In woman's suffrage, one of the most quoted and most abused figures of speech is “\Woman's place is in the home.” And I am sorry to say tha: many women quote this as glibly as the men themselves, without even tnderstanding what the home means. { have heard many women say tha: they hated housekeeping; knew noth- ing about sewing; could do nothing with their children, and still stood strong for a home. Isn't that a para- dox? We all know that a good house- keeper naturally makes a good citi- zen. A woman who has discipline and executive ability and can manage her children with love and firmness would take an interest in all chil- dren. Women who are free to look on life with their own eyes, think their own thoughts, who live in a rea] world of struggling, suffering humanity, are the most effective wothers who ever lived. “What about the women that have no homes; that have to go out and earn their bread, and often that of their children? Conditions have changed from the day when women and girls were sheltered and pro- vided for in the home. With the high cost of living many women are | forced to help bear the burdens of the family, and while the father en- courages and gladly takes what they earn, it is his voice that joins in the cry, “Woman's place is in the home.” It would be humorous if it were not a tragedy.” [ rs of dependency on man's views | ming. They should be light in welght, shade the eyes, and small enough to be out of the way of everybody. One may find them, answering these requirements, in all sorts of materials and qualities. There are grass hats (which are pret- try with a light scarf draped about them) that cost only a quarter, and there are good looking straw hats for 60 and 76 cents. And at the other ex- treme are fine South American Pana- ma hats that cost as much as one wants to pay. White felts and white fabric hats are in the running also, with the new native_models develop- ing considerable !(l‘&llth. The pictures given here will serve to show about the simplest and also the least simple methods of trimming used on this character of millinery. The hat of pique bound with a fold of the same and finished with a band and fan, could hardly be simpler.

The most elegant hat of all for out- ing wear is a good Panama, The fine ones stand a great amount of bending and wear and are successfully cleaned. Also they hold thelr color in the sun, and the color of the genu- iog Panama is very beautiful. These hats are most appropriately trimmed with scarfs of silk or bands and orna- ments of ribbon. Some novel hats made of silk or other fabrics, shaped by rows of shir- ring on cords or fine wires, have been lately introduced for travellng. They are reversible and give one the advantage of a change, as the inslde and outside are In different colors. An ornament may be pinned or sewed to such a hat upon occasion, and it will serve for regular stroet wear, especially if further decorated with a lace vell. It may be flattened out and carrled In a sultcase If necessary, which Is the great polnt of advantage in these flexible hats. For a sea voyage they are ideal, JULIA BOTTOMLEY.

The bowl should be shallow and wide. Twenty snowdrops and a few violets are enough to fill the bowl. They are more effective when not clustered. Small glass or china troughs may be purchased for the purpose of deco- rating the table. Each of theso is an arc of a quar- ter circle, and may be arranged to form many designs. Short-stemmed valley. The center or corners of a table are the proper places for flowers. Quanti- ties of vases and holders, narrow and shapely, are made for the purpose of holding table flowers. Popular Feather. A notable novelty, and ore that is| appearing on every side In Parisian milllnery, is the high knife feather or pretty. A couple of white “couteaux” and an edging of white plume on a black tricorne ehape, or black upon Chiffon Poplin. Chiffon poplin with a rich border design In flowers strewn over satin cross stripes comes in the most beau-, tiful colorings.
