The coat shown Is semi-fitting, with a double-breasted front fastening and very broad turnover collar and cuffs. The single effective trimming touch la In the row of really handsome filagree buttons, with Jewel centers. Of course, the good style of such a coat is much increased by smart hat and Other accessories.

A COMMITTEE MEETING. The members of the literature comnittee Of the Hammond Woman's club are meeting this afternoon at the home of the chairman, Mrs. Edith Griffin in Ogden alrcet, - It is the first study meeting of, the year and a very enjoyable program has been prepared.

C.

One of the occupations Intrinsically healthful Is housework. Too much housework or too few conveniences may " cause 111 health In some women, but, as compared witb factory, office and store workers, the health average of the houseworker Is" very high. One thing Is accessary to lift It from the realm of drudgery and that Is respect for the work Itself and for the work Itself and for what It means.. Given respect, the en thuslasm which makes all work a pleasure, Is sure to follow. la spite of the necessarily long hours the constantly repeated effort with little accumulative valuve, considering the energy put forth and the monotony of the work, there Is a great deal in favor of this ovcupatlon physiologically and much that should offset the perfectly well-founded criticisms urged against it. One great point In Its favor is Its manysidedness. It ran, as a rule, be regulated to the rather varying health wave of many women ; the exercise of the muscles used in the dally work Is quite regular, and when no foolish excess Is Indulged In, most beneficial especially Is this so when an Intelligent effort Is made to do one's work In the most healthful way.

(Special to The Times.) , Crown Point, lnd.,' Oct.; 8. The Indiana Federation of Woman's cluba wti given out fn the following article to be printed in the leading papers of thj state which will be of "interest to Lake County club women in general. Any thoughtful observer of the trend of the times cannot fall to recognize

the tremendous force woman is proving

in these revolutionary days of. social

reforms. Many of the reform ' move

ments which are beginning to bear fruit can be directly traced to agitation started by woman's organisations.

Among the strongest . factors , to ac

complish these reforms has been the

womn's club movement whose first con

certed action dates back to late in the

sixties, upon the organization of Sorosis, of New York. The early efforts

of this woman's movement have within

the past twenty-two years been crystalised through, the - formation of na

tional and state federations. Under hese organizations woman's work for

reforms has - steadily gained in its in.

fluence and diversity of usefulness.

The splendid work which these or

ganizations are accomplishing is only

realized by those who are watching

this growing constituency. It reads

not the eye of a crltica lobserver to

discern that a great woman's move

ment is on foot. The time has come

when he who runs may read.'

This movement Is simply a feature of

civilization; a natural result of the readjustment necessary to the great

economic and moral awakening of the age a readjustment which places woman upon a higher plane where her in

tellectual and moral strength wield the influence which is the outcome of her broader educational advantages, and of her awakening BenseHo the need of

becoming a vital force in the reform current which is seeking to adjust social and moral inequalities. Time was when the woman's club idea centered in the desire for self-culture; but today woman's clubs are organizing for

TEL. SOUTH CHICAGO 232

larger work; for those beneficent move

ments for the welfare of the state, car

ried forward en masse, and bearing wonderful results through the agency of federation.

In this great woman's movement

which Is sweeping over the country, finding definite results in- our own state, the Indiana State Federation of Clubs is a recognized power, standing for co-operation among the women of the state for better homes, better schools, better moral conditions, bet

ter care for the woman and child who toils.

Not only is it a power as it stands in its present strength, but it is increasing its usefulness by reaching out to the isolated clubs, and, by drawing them into the central organisation, giving them a brOader vision how best to enlarge their own horizon and become stronger factors for good in their own community. The times are ripe for earnestmlnded women to grapple with, the many proolems which menace the commonwealth, the community, and the security an1 asncity of the home in its many rela

tions. "Service" is the watchword of the hour. It Is only as a woman

realizes her relationship and responsi

bility to others that she reaches her

highest development, whether in an individual or associated capacity. In works of reforms combined efforts bring larger and more potent results.

In club life this is best accomplished through federation. Isolated clubs find strength and association with a central organization. By becoming an integral part in a great body which is endeavoring to rid the state of the evils which menace its best interests, individual club3 rise to a feeling of larger responsibility which they find reflected in their power for good in the community which they represent. Federation is in the air. In union there is strength. In the great woman's rrtvement which is dawning federation is a necessity if the highest good is to be obtained.

A very interesting meeting of the members of the history committee of

the Hammond Woman's Club took place yesterday afternoon at the home of the chairman, Mrs. Henry Burk in Carroll street. It was the first committee

meeting after the long summer vaca

tion and many members were present. Thirtyseven responded to the roll call.

Mrs. Burk received her guests In the parlors of hsr pretty residence where the afternoon was passed. A abort

gent way absorbed the rudiments of his education. The other evening he reminded me of a visit we paid to, Westville astride his fathers old gray mare. I was finishing a spring term of school as successor to Pete

Crumpacker, the teacher, who had resigned to accept another position.

and I boarded with the Geist family.

On that trip C. H. took a header into the mysterious of smoking a cigar. It had the usual climax of first attempts at this dissipation, and being several years his senior, I prescribed

a lemon, so he says. : The Geist properties are successful. He takes over a debt ridden

mismanaged plant, introduces econo

my and savings unknown before, reduces the price to consumers, and

makes the utility a credit to the place. His interest and assistance is

widely sought. He tells a good stoty.

ply seems unlimited but his center piece, the beet of the lot. the one

that never fails, originated near his boyhood home in this township. The

characters are living today, and

from our acquaintance with them

can vouch for it. This township and these three residents have thus be

come known over a considerable por

tion of the world, for Mr. Geist's busi

ness ana pleasure takes him great

distances, and his versatility as an

entertained vies with his financial reputation. The years are mellowing on the heart, and financial kings are not much different from other people. The tie between Mr. Geist and the home folks has been a constant one. He has found time to maintain a lively interest in his boyhood home, and this, of course, is reciprocal. We like to point to our boys who have scaled the heights. Westville Indicator.
