Women [mbi Said a man who ventured into the Papyrus Club reception on Saturday: | “I believe the highest purpose of | women’s clubs is to amuse and to teach | women to frivol intelligently; to' teach them to see the glamorous side, as | well as the solemn side of human af- | fairs, and to be quicker to laugh than !to weep; to cultivate an interest in | other women and thereby grow to be imore human and sympathetic in their | relations to their families and friends.” Now that chap spoke better than he kne Women do need that sort of | atmosphere—not training, good friend, but atmosphere. | Gooa fellowship is the mental pro- {duct of congenial spirits, who blind themselves to foibles and note the good points only. And any club that makes for good fellowship among | women is doing mankind a noble ser- vice. It makes mothers more patient | and understandable, wives more sym- | pathetic and companionable and helps to break down some of the ridiculous distinctions of sex. ., e That was a famous day—Saturday. | What a gay assemblage gathered at the Surely Mrs, C. Ma- son Kinne and her kindred spirits must have been glad of heart. As- suredly, their guests were, among whom were a goodly number of men— bless them! The gowns were smart, the decora. tions striking, the punch superb— what more could be asked? And, by the way, that ruby-red nectar was of Miss Jenne Morrow Long's brewing, and a past master is she in the decad- ent art.

These Cap and Bells women can tell a story with the best of masculine raconteurs of older growth, and give a good account of themselves, like- wise of the story. The day has slip- ped into the dim gray past when women tell a story with the climax first. Therefore were these Cap and Bells tales well worth the hearing. Who shall say but that the next crop of clubwomen may give us a feminine Chau_nre); Degew? s B a The frivolities over, however, we must lend our ear to the serious things that are concerning the thoughtful-minded. These are things that count. The League of California Munici- palities, which met in Santa Cruz for purposes of civic improvement, heark- ened unto the pleadings of the Cali- fornia clubwomen (led by Mrs. Syd- ney S. Palmer) in behalf of a State tubercular hospital. The following resolutions were adopted by the league: Whereas, Tt has long been the sense of the California Club that State and municipal la should be enacted whereby the spread of tuber- culosis In all its forms may be prevented and whereby there shall be Inaugurated a syster- atic education of the public in the care, treat- ment and prevention of the disease, and where- by State or municipal sanatoriums shall be es- tablished for the care and treatment of pul- | monary tuberculosis; and, Whereas, The California Club is now pre- paring a bill carrying a reasonable appropria~ tion for the above named purposes to be intro- duced In the California State Legislature dur- ing ite coming session; be it Resolved, That the League of California now in convention at Santa {ndorse such proposed action of the Call- fornia Club and furthermore that it will aid that organization in all possible ways to enact such laws. e The California Branch of the Asso- ciation of Collegiate Alumnae met on faturday at the Sorosis Club rooms, entertaining specially in honor of Mrs. Constance Crawley, and of the Christ- mas graduates of Berkeley and Stan- ford. Luncheon was served at 12:30, which was, as usual, an interesting affair. After a report of the national asso- ciation’s meeting in St. Louis, a pa- | per was read that had been prepared by Mrs. Cheney, ‘“Will Nature Elimi- nate the College Woman?" This rather interesting sociological problem was cleverly handled, after which Ben Greet was welcomed. He made an interesting address.
