SUNDAY* OCTOBER 24, 1915.

Terre Haute club women are vitally interested in the federation convention which is upon us. Beginning next Tuesday morning at 10 o'clock It will continue until noon, or, perhaps, later—Friday. Terre Haute's interest is largely in the presidency question, our own Mrs. L. J. Cox being a candidate for that office. Club women are pointing with pride to what she has done in Terre Haute to her career as head of numerous organizations to which she has belonged. They feel that women all over the state will recognize her capability, her wonderful intellect, her progresslveness, her executive ability and her interest and efforts in making the world more beautiful and better, as qualities meriting state leadership.

Mrs. Cox has set a very favorable precedent for Indiana club women, that of announcing her candidacy before hand. She has frequently been referred to as the first avowed candidate for this office, and, although it was repeatedly stated that other women would come out, Mrs. Clark Falrbank has been the only other one to enter the race. She came out as an eleventh hour aspirant.

A large number of women are planning to go over for the federation, many to remain only part time, and others to hear the entire program. Miss Vida Newsom, present state president, has written that the election of officers will take place Thursday, October 28. This may require all day and perhaps only part of the day, she states.

Various committee meetings 111 occupy the morning session of the federation on Tuesday and in the afternoon club presidents will give twominnte talks on "What We Are Asking of the Federation," "How to Interest Young Girls in Clubs," "Homes for Rural School Teachers," "The Playground as a Factor in Community Life."

The formal opening of the convention will be held at 8 p. m. Tuesday, with Mrs. E. C. Rumpler, chairman of the Seventh district federation, presiding. Hon. Fred I. Willis, president of the chamber of commerce of Indianapolis, will give the address of welcome Dr. Amelia Keller, first vicepresident of the federation, will respond. The evening will clo3e with an informal reception for the members of the federation and t'neir friends, tendered by the Seventh district federation.

At 8:45 a. m. Wednesday the fed-e-rati:m will reconvene. Reports will be read from the ten officers of the organization, which include Dr. Keller, Mrs. Victor Franklin Jones, of South Bend, second vice-president Mrs. Robert A. Ogg, of Greencastle, recording secretary Mrs. Ella M. Myers, of Crawfordsville, corresponding secretary Mrs. E. A. Torrance, of Evansville, treasurer Mrs. Saliie Harney Foster, of Ladoga, auditor Mrs. Craigie Gunn Mitchell, of Bedford, general federation secretary Miss Via Newsom, of Columbus, president.

More reports will then be taken up. Mrs. Ethel S. Pattle, of Rockport, will give a talk on "Country Life" Mrs. Samuel Matthews, of Tipton, on "Peace" Mrs. William I. Thomas, of Chicago, executive secretary of the woman's peace party, will talk on

MRS. CIiARKH OIVTOS SPLJEITOITJ READING FOR FRANCHISE) LEAGUE

That her audience frequently was in tears Is the truest evidence of the splendid reading of "The Terrible Meek," by Mirs. Frederick Clarke, formerly of Terre Haute, at the recent October meeting of the l:cal Equal Franchise league. Mrs. Clarke's dramatic ability was splendidly portrayed throughout the entire reading, which was Indeed a difficult one.

Those who have read this play by Charles Rand Kelley or had the opportunity of hearing Mrs. Clarice can appreciate its worth certainly at this period of the world's history when Europe Is plunged In desolation from the terrible ravages of war.

Mrs. Clarke Is now a resident of Indianapolis and has delighted her friends there frequently with her readings.

While visiting her sister, Mrs. Alice Fischer Harcourt, last summer, Mrs. John R. Crapo, South Sixth street, had the privilege of meeting Charles Rand Kelley and hearing him give a number of reading's of his own works. CLUB BEGINS ITS STUDY OF INDIANA HISTORY "Blest Indiana!

With this quotation the progTam of the recent meeting of the Literature Study club opened at the home of Mrs. Harry C. Jones. The program that

MRS. EIXA MAXWELL 3IYEHS, Corresponding Secretary.

MRS. EDWARD TARRANCB. Treasurer.

should have been given two weeks ago was given at this meeting because of a change in the club plans. Inetead or Guest day being observed in the middle of the season it was held two weeks ago, supplanting the regular program.

Mrs. William C. Harrison had charge of the general topic—Territorial History 17&8-1816—and eaoh member of the club had a sub-topic. Delving Into the early history of the state, the members gave interesting accounts of how the early settlers settled how the women baked and brewed and spun while the men hunted and tilled the soil the life of the Indians, the derivation of their names and their characteristic®.

This body of women has decided that every member shall take a part in each program that is given and in this way increase the interest of all of them in each meeting.

CURRICULUM OF 8CHOOL8 DISCUSSED BY MIS8 RUPP Speolal attention of the Saturday oircle having been centered on "Education" for its clu'b work this year, Miss Carrie Rupp read an excellent paper on "Curriculum of the Public Schools" at a meeting of the circle at the Fairbanks library Saturday evening. Miss Rupp's paper said in part: "Too many persons, teachers included, are prone to interpret the curriculum as merely a budget of suggestive material arranged by an authoritative committee from which the daily program may be drawn and arranged. We need the dally program and it is a necessary tool in our every day work-shop, but if we are to be progressive, efficient teachers, we must have a broad knowledge of the subjects themselves In order that we may understand not only the evolution of

the subjects but their very close correlation, one to another. "The curriculum may be defined as a useful part of man's experience from the Garden of Eden to the present day, based upon the needs of the children and the demands society makes upon these children as citizens of this great commonwealth. "After all, our public schools are the intellectual, moral and industrial workshops where our girls and boys shall learn the things they need to know to enable them to live useful and ambitious lives where they will form the habit of Independence that will make of them valuable citizens." WOMEN HAVE INTERESTING PROGRAM ON PRESENT DAY PROBLEMS.

Questions ranging all the way from the high cost of living to the commission form of government for cities occupied the attention of the members of the Tuesday Literary club at the home of Mrs. Edward Talley. Brief and to the point was the discussion of every subject which added greatly to the worth of the program.

Mrs. Harry McGurk reviewed what she considered Ave g:ood laws passed by the last legislature, which included the workmen's compensation and a number of others in which women were interested. Mrs. Robert Paige had an Interesting discussion of the "High Cost of Living" and "The Cost of High Living."

In discussing her assigned subject, "The Commission Form of Government for Cities," Mrs. Harry Rhoads reviewed John Hamilton Clark's book on the Des Moines situation, copied from the Galveston plan. According to this plan the mayor of the city Is assisted in control by four boards, which do away In a large measure with the opportunities of corruption.

Mr. Clark gave much credit to club women for their methods of dealing with vice under suoh a ruling.

Mrs. Arthur Cunningham discussed "Neutrality" and quoted from President Wilson's neutrality speech several months ago. She showed that neutrality Is by no means the result of cowardice. MR8. COX GIVES INTERESTING PROGRAM FOR WOMAN'S CLUB. "Tour Youngr Men Shall See Visions" was the subject of an unusually interesting paper given by Mrs. L. J. Cox at the meeting of the Terre Haute Woman's club Saturday afternoon. It was so interesting in fact the club members voted that the time usually given to discussion be given to Mrs. Cox for more of her topic which dealt with contemporary poetry. Mrs. Cox quoted from about fifteen works after a splendid introduction and continued her reading at the request of the club.

Mrs. WilLiam Shryer and Miss Mary Moran were appointed to attend school board meetings and Mrs. R. S. Tennant and Miss Grace Arnold, council meetings—these appointments to be in force half the year. It was also voted to renew its pledge made several years ago for the bringing of the district federation convention to Terre Haute and the district chairman, Mrs. Pruitt, of Plainfleld will be so instructed.

Mrs. W. S, Tarkington, aunt of the well known Indiana writer, who was a delegate to the D. A. R. convention and who has been a guest of Mrs. Jas. Hamilton Black, was a guest at the club, which was attended by about thirty persons.

She will be the gust of Miss Adah Bush, both of whom will go from Kentland to the Indianapolis convention. MRS. DEMARCHU8 BROWN TALK8 IN 8ULLIVAN.

Mrs. Demarchus Brown, who was heard in Terre Haute recently, when she gave an address before the Jewish Council of Women, gaJve another of her unusual talks at Sullivan last week under the auspices of all the Sullivan women's organizations. A Sullivan paper says of her: "Never before have the women, representing all of Sullivan's organizations, had the opportunity of listening to as brilliant and Inspiring a lecture as was that of Mrs. Demarchus Brown. She charmed her hearers by her ready wit, sarcasm, delineation of character and her message in full was replete with oratorical flashes and gems of clear English."
