AND MRS. SMITH admittedly the best cook in town—could really have her audience sitting up taking notes if she talked about food instead of interesting South American personalities; none of whom she had ever heard ‘of until she started digging up material for her dreaded paper. Mrs. Brown, who had the courage to take up painting after she had reared her family, could talk so glowingly on the fun and real satisfaction ‘she is getting out of her new interest that she ' might encourage severul more timid souls to try their hand at painting, too. The average club is made up: of many capable, and some talented; women. But instead of being given a chance to talk about a subject they know something ahout, they are usually asked to talk on some-~ thing about which they know practically nothing. That’s why women’s clubs are often so dull.
