CHICAGO WOMAN'S CLUB GIVES OBJECT LESSON FOR OTHERS; LOCAL SOCIETY RESTING BY SEASHORE AND MOUNTAIN SIDE THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, MONDAY, JULY 25, 1904 Enters Field of Social Reform, Winning Suc- cess and Fame as-Well. BY LAURA BRIDE POWERS. e symmer months, when ms are in the custody of ors and maids, inspection intb the of other clubs—clubs beyond our ubr phys vision—is attracting the at- tention of progressive clubwomen. For, however clever our organizations may be many of them are very clever broad and cultivating—there's al- s room for expansion. Among the clubs that attracted the St amount of attention at the biennial (this sounds funereal, the meet wasn't—not a bit of it) was the Chicago Woman's Club. This organization seems to me to be one of ihe broadest and cleverest in America. Therefore I beg to outline briefly its principles, its activities and a few of ts resuits—even if it be a far cry home. And in quoting from an ticie in “The Club Woman,” pre- d by Mrs. G. W. Plummer, let me ace the guotation by stating that rnia really has no apologies to to Illinois, or any other State, for matter, for the quality of our men's clubs, and the women who se them. But an interchange of s conducive to healthy growth— the Chicago Woman's Club, to Chicago Woman's C 1t stuture and in the pride of ow grown to maturity, was nor the 11188 “begun 1o take questions of pra: e of its earlier his- he year books would rk began without and it took the sax the world's inter n was presented, ork?’ and create ve appealed calied into council ed effort toward t tempting to n w fmportant on o the methods State institu- r ne in ad- these was the placing of > Insane Asylum the hands of the Initing with the County Hos- agitation begun b citizens was called s Hospital was pledged to r the care of sick and sufferin; in the record is in a milk commis- 500 children in the e a daily s w re “Pasteurized milk v last summer.

I seemed wed by nature with a nervous consti says a lady of e, Tenn., “and although I felt and coffee were bad for me the e of habit was so strong I just t give them up. Someone suggested that I try cereak coffee, but I remembered what insipid we used under that name dur- ing the Civil War and so without ever looking into the subject or realizing w hn progress science has made in this 1 just wouldn't give Postum finally the W. C. T. U. started an exchange where there w s0 many calls for Postum it was served regu and many were induced to try # nyself among the number. How delighted I was to find it so agreeable, delicious and satisfy- ing. As 1 had suffered from nervous are in our ecity prostration a change from tea and cof- | fee was imperative, but all these troubles disappeared after I had used the Postum faithfully for a few weeks. “A sister and a son-in-law were con- | verted to Postum at the same time and now we all enjoy it as well as we ever | did coffee, but instead of making us' nervous like coffee we enjoy steady | nerves, sleep sound and are in every' way better for the change.” Name given by Postum Co. Battle Creek, Mich. ‘ This lady found what she thought | was natural nervousness was only due to an acquired taste for coffee that is! to some people a sure destroyer of ! prerves and health. Like her, anyone who cuts off coffee altogether and uses well boiled Postum in its place will be greatly benefited after a few days and the return to health is a joyful journey. There's & reason. ompass | that period there have been two. Two women as assistant superintendents owe their posi- tions also to the same influence largely, Pand the election of women as trustees of the State University at Champaign, liL, is directly due to work done in the club. Another of the good works in which the club took an active interest was jthe Glenwood School, an industrial school for boys. It | raised $40,000 for this purpose and one of the | buildings bears its.name in commemoration of | this In t | & 3 the financial depression in Chicago | ne ted the raising of large sums to re. lieve distress among the unemployed. The Woman’s Club sent out a call to the other and | similar women's organizati s of the city and | together they established ine wnrkroflms.‘ where sewing was given to women who applied in order that they might support their fami- lies. Twenty thousand dollars was paid out | in this way, distress avoided and the self-re- | spect of the recipient preserved I From this beginning grew the Model Lodg- ing-house, which furnishes temporary lodging at the smail price of 15 cents a night. Failing even this pittance, the lodger may ‘‘work out’” the amount. The plan has been very success- ful and the work is carried on as the ‘‘emer- gency work’” by a number of women's clubs working together. Many societies have been born in the club and gone out into the world to battle valiantly and successfully: The Protective Agency for Women and Children, a eoclety which gives legal aid and moral support to wronged women | and children; the Physiological Institute, | which opened courses of weekly lectures for 1 instru~tion of working women in the princi- | | Ples of hygiene and sanitary science; the Mu- | nicipal Order League, now merged into the | Clvic Federation; the Household Economics, | the Society for Ci Dress, the Political | Equality League, whose object is to promote the study of polit extend political men ience and to foster und s and privileges of w the Public Scaool Art Association, which | places good casts and pictures in public es harmonious colo v etc.: the S C years old 5000 o year in_keeping | ed In order that they “now_fitteen rom $7000 to ry department mot literat reform and as, bl rehip of #1300 in the Art In- competed for by the seniors in stitute to be the city high schools: the giving of exhibi- tions of the plctures ¢ al artists, the pur- hase for the clubrooms of several valuable works of art, the establishment of the small the city, and finally, the mu- | an audlence-room in the | High o, the latter involving | are of thousands of dollars. ough the philosophy that Egypt for explorat and ecience Professor Breasted went to n purposes, and the results artment presented to the | i Museum of Chicago. to the public work, study classes | d on by the various departments for | members of the club. and | and musical as well as practical pro- | nmes are given bi-monthly | come of the club i3 derived from a | | | due of $12 and an ipitiation fee of $25. nds about $T000 yearly for rent pa\.nx the running expenses a club, the remainder g maintain_its v b bial and cident to ainly to in i Sl after such e sources when the call for enterprise imperative ladies.)

If any of vou are wedded to grumpy men who sneer at “women’s clubs,” just tell them a few of these things that Chicago—even male Chicago—owns up to. It may, if their minds be not hermetically sealed, start a new thought into life. ———————————— ‘mm FELLOWS MAKING READY FOR SOVEREIGN LODGE WE Ten Thousand Members of the Order | Will Take Part in Grand Parade in August. Next in importance to the meeting of the Knights Templar in triennial con- clave in this clity next September will be the session of the Sovereign Grand Lodge of the Independent Order of Odd Fellows, which will convene on the 19th of the same month.

These special services will terminate to-morrow evening, which is the feast of St. Ann. The ser- mon on that occasion will be preached | in St. Francis by Rev. Robert F.

According to them. the sacred re- mains were brought frorh Jerusalem to the Roman city of Apta Julla by Lazarus, Mary Magdalen, Martha and others. They were cmmitted to the charge of Bishop Auspicious, a disciple of St. Peter. During the persecu- tions this sacred deposit was hidden in the crypt of the church. It was discovered anew | by Charlemagne, as we learn from a letter from him to Pope Adrian, as weil as the reply which the Pontiff wrote to the Emperor. God bhas worked wonders through the relics of the saints. In the fourth book of Kings we read of a dead man who was restored to life by touching the dead body of a prophet.
