WOMEN AT WINONA LAKE

Local Club Is Planning Many Affairs for Summer Violators. The Wlnon§ Woman’s Club, the leading social organization at Winona Lake, is this season going to give more attention than ever to the entertainment of visitors to this Christian resort in northern Indiana. The president of the club is Mrs. Parley A. Zartmann, wife of a well-known worker in Presbyterian evangelism, who makes her home permanently at the lake. The club will meet at 4 o'clock each Wednesday afternoon at the chapel of the Westminster Hotel, and speakers who are on the Winona Assembly program will speak on special topics to the women. One of the speakers will be Miss Belle Kearney, of Mississippi, a national lecturer for the Women’s Christian Temperance Union. One Wednesday afternoon is to be given to the club women of Indiana, when the speaker will be Mrs. Mary I. Wood, an officer of the General Federation of Women’s Clubs. On another afternoon a musicale and reception will be given. There are many missionary workers at Winona through the summer, and they have a society which meets to disouss questions of general interest. The meetings this summer will be held on Saturday afternoons and will be led by Mrs. Frank N. Palmer, of Winona Lake.

One of the spectacular affairs of the Winona summer will be “Venetian night,” on July 31, and the women will direct its affairs. Committees of young women will be organized to plan diversions and many will decorate water-craft in the hope of wihning the prizes that"will be offered. The judges will nearly all be women. Band concerts will be given and there will be a display of fireworks. A convention of students of Esperanto will be held on July 22, under the direction of Mrs. Wilbur F. Crafts of Washington, and this meeting is expected to be of especial interest to women.

In many other directions, too, women who go to Winona Lake will find diversions of interest and value to them. There will be a school of domestic science, they may learn to swim, and nature study clubs will be organized. Many excursions about the park and into the woods will be led by Isaac Brown, the Indiana “bird and bee man,” whose talks are of an instructive kind fcrr mothers and children, as well as school teachers and other nature lovers. Winona stands for the uplift of Christian life and good citizenship among all Americans. Winona Assembly and Schools Association is the parent organization of a number of educational institutions and business enterprises which the Assembly directorate has fostered through the years necessary to give them foothold. The Assembly itself, now in its fifteenth year, was organized to provide an attractive summering place where Christian people might gather in wholesome environment. As a protection to such surroundings, the Assembly obtained by purchase and agreement control of the shore line of Winona Lake. The effort is made to provide every attraction and comfort for Christian families, to shut out everything of doubtful tinge. The Assembly has pro vided hotels, a large and beautiful park, where the seeker after spiritual inspiration may not be disturbed by discord. At Winona Lake the young are influenced to a clean and earnest view of life by the example of cultured and devout people. To Winona Lake come the leaders of the pulpit, eminent educators, the business and professional men, all of them moulders of present day thought. From them spreads to the whole Winona people a spirit of broad sympathy and an enthusiasm for the higher and better things of life. Year by year the Winona purpose has sprefid of its own momentum. The development of the Assembly’s ideal brought into being the Winona schbcts to help the young. The first of them was the Summer Schools, which many thousands have attended and have gone into. American life to help perform the American work.

LUMP JAW.

A Treatment That Sometimes Will Cure an Infected Animal. The following is the standard treatment for lump Jaw on cattle: If there be an opening in the tumor or swelling, inject into the opening about one teaspoonful of tincture of iodine daily. If there is no opening, rub the tincture on the skin daily, or it may be injected with a hypodermic syringe. Continue the treatment until it is evident that the growth of the tumor has stopped. If willing to give up the use. of the cow as a milker until she is cured, you may also, in addition to the treatment above prescribed, give her one and a half to two and a half teaspoonfuls of iodide of potassium divided into two doses, one in the morning and one at night, to be given in a pint of warm water. Continue this for two weeks or until signs of lodism appear, such as a scurfy skin, weeping at the eyes and dribbling from tbe nose and mouth. Then discontinue for a week or ten days and commence again if imeessary. The iodide of potassium will render the milk unfit for use. Continue to milk her regularly, however, and throw the milk away, as she may be cured In a few weeks, and then her milk will be all right. The disease itself does not render the milk unfit for use unless the cow is in the last stagee, where the general health of the cow will be Impaired.
