NOISY DELEGATES “GET ASCOLDING AT CLUB FEDERATION Mrs. Pennybacker, the Presi- dent, Has a Hard Time Keeping Order. “When you hear my gavel it means sit down where you are without taking one other step. “If you can't hear, sit and think. Some of the work's greatest achievements have been accom- plished that way “If the ushers can't make the delegates obey and sit down, let them resign and we'll get other ‘ushers who will enforce the rules.” It was thus, aided by a formidable wavel and a determined voice, that Mrs. Percy V. Pennybacker sought to, control the session of the thirteenth | biennial convention of the Federation | of Women's Clubs, over which she] presided in tho Seventh Regiment Armory. And it was not until she had used her gavel a great many times and shown her determination to keep things well in hand that she got anything like order out of the meeting. First of all, she had the doors of the armory closed at 9.20 o'cloek, the time for calling the convention to order, and those who were tardy were locked out for at least an hour. These uted ones fairly stormed the Lex- ington Avenue entrances of the ar- mory, and there was so much push- in and struggling to get in that Miss Mary Ga Hay bad to beseech the delegates to be little more gentle with their sisters, ~NOISY DELEGATES DROWN VOICES OF THE SPEAKERS, |man of the be held !n Carnegie Hall. There, she sald, the New York delegation would, out of courtesy to the visitors, take seats In the gallery and leave the floor to the others. When the convention was called to order, Tali Esen Morgan, the musi- cal director, announced that Hymn No. 9 would be sung, but Mrs. Penny- backer evidently overruled him, for when she took her place four fem- inine cornetists sprang up and start- ed the ‘Soldiers’ Chorus” from Faust. After that came the “Star Spangled Banner” and No. 9 was forgotten. The President made it quite clear that she would stand no disobedience from the delegates, and she kept a mighty watchful eye over the assem- blage while Mrs. D, I. Murray of Ohio, Chairman of the Credentials! Committee, announced that 2,144 dele- gates had registered, As soon as Mrs. Murray had finished Mrs, Penny- backer said, with a few more bangs ot her gavel: “I have just seen three ushers de- livering notes. ‘That is against the rules unless the notea aro of the most vital importance. And the lady (Bang-bang!) who is delivering the notes is not paying the least attention |to the chair! If this is not stopped the Biennial Board will appoint other ushers: When order was restored Mrs, Jo- | siah Evans Cowles of Los Angeles, one of (he candidates to succeed Mra. Pennybacker, made a report as Chair. Committee, Miss Hay followed with a report for the Biennial Convention Com- mittee and then it came to Mrs. Pennypacker’s ears that a long line of delegates was trying to get into the armory. “They should have been on time,” she said, “We'll have three other reports read before admitting them.” “Oh, let them in now,” Miss Hay pleaded. But Mrs. Pennypacker shook her head and said “No!” wit! marked emphasis. LETS THE TARDY ONES IN AFTER SHORT WAIT. However, she relented a minute later. “Mrs. William Grant. Brown tells me," she said, “that the fire laws will not permit the women to stand out In the open air, so We'll have the door opened for a little while.” With the inrush of delegates, many With the opening of the morning| of whom seemed to have been much session it was found that no matter| uted by being locked out, Mra.
