FEDERATION OF CLUBWOMEN
NOMINATES NEW OFFICERS
Presidency Goes to
Mrs. ED. Buss of
Bakersfield
Mary Ashe Miller
BAKERSFIELD. 'Feb. 1. — Official
honors •were showered upon ; Bakers
flelfl today by the nominating commit
tee of the State 'Federation of "Women's
Clubs, now in annual convention here,
as the president, the recording secre
tary and the corresponding secretary
for the coaiingr year were chosen from
this city, and their election tomorrow
10 assured, as there is no opposition.
The ticket is as follows:
President, Mrs. E. D. Buss of the Ba
kersfieM Woman's Club: vice president,
Mrs/ Oliver C. Bryant, president of the
LosAngelcs <3istrlet; vioe president at
large, , Mrs. Charles TToodbury, presi
dent of the Ebell Club of Oakland; re
cording secretary, Mrs. J. Benson
TVrenn of } the Bakersfle'd Woman's
Club; corresponding secretary, Mrs. L.
Edna Kaar of the Kern Woman's Club;
auditors — Mrs. Dixon L. Phillips " of
Hanford, president of the San Joaquin
district, and Mrs. C. L. Donahoe of Wil
lows: general federation secretary, Mrs.
Robert Potter Hill of Sonoma; treas
urer. Mrs. Blee of Santa Cruz. N
When the nominating -committee,
which consists of Mrs. J. W. Orr,\chair
nian: Mrs. L. H. Thompson. Mrs. W. C.
Kennedy. Mrs. A. J. Foster. Mrs. C. G.
Lamb?rson, Mrs. J. W. Bishop and Mrs.
O. Sbepard Barnum, met this morning
there was only one name, put forward
for the presidency, ths't of Mrs. Buss.
Mrs. J. B. Hume of Berkeley, __whose
name .". was mentioned for the"" office,
declined to enter the contest. After
considerable consultation, the entire
ticket was chosen.
There 5s much genera! approval ex
pressed of the personnel of the new
| 6mcers-*>lect. They are all able, women
and, what is even more delightful to
- a federation member, are all repre
• s^ntatives of the right portions of the
j State at the right time. There was a
'\u25a0 great deal of business transacted to
day, reports, being read by a number
of officers and several important ad
dresses given by outside speakers.
TIME <JK COWEXTIO.V CHAAGED
Several amendments to the by-alwa
and legislation were voted upon and
passed, the most important of which
was the one changing the" time of the
annual convention of the State Federa
tion from February, as it has been, to
May. The original amendment sent In
was that the meeting be held in No
! vember, but after discussion this was ,
further amended to read "May." This
will necessitate the officers to be elect
ed tomorrow, to continue in office for
I fifteen months, instead of a year.,
| The matter of where the next con
vention is to be held will come up to
morrow afternoon. It seems a foregone
conclusion that Oakland will be the
city selected. It is understood that an
'< invitation to meet there will be given
•by the representatives cf the Ebell
Club of- that city, which would be as
sisted In entertaining by the Adelphian
Club jef Alarieda, the Town and Gown
Club'Vf Berkeley and other organiza
tions fcf that vicinity. There probably
will be other towns mentioned, but
none .'has as yet' been put forward
prominently.
The programme this evening was de
voted to the department of, civics, of
which Mrs. E. L. Baldwin of San Fran
cisco Is the State chairman. The ad
firess given by WV- Almont Gates/ secre
tary of the State Board of Charities
and Corrections, on "The 'Child of the
Street," was probably of more general
Interest than any matter that has come
up. He gave a sketch of the habits and
progress downward of the boy or girl
of the streets, beginning with parental
disobedience, the truancy, idleness, pet
ty crimes, greater crimes, and finally
prison. He said:
"I am not one of those who believe
that the compulsory vaccination law
should be more rigidly enforced than
the compulsory education law, nor am
I one of those' who think that the
School Board should thus be made to
jdo the work of the Board of Health.
Manual training should be Introduced
! more largely into the schools also. I
'aIEO believe that the i women of the
j State should advocate the passing of a
law making the coming of age of a
woman 21 Instead of IS years."
CmVTUItE OF VOUXG FOLKS
* At the morning session F. B. Dress
fcsx. Ph. IX, professor of the science and
art of teaching. University of Califor
nia, g^.ve an. address on "The Care and
Culture of Young People." He men
tioned as essentials the exercise of care
as to the books read; proper influences
at home and' in school; supplying of
high Ideals; care of the health of boys
and girls during the age of development
and the supplying of ample time and
space for play. \
The statement emanates from C. P.
Netlson, an artist, who spoke on "Th.c
• Relation of Axt to Life," explaining
that art was one of the essentials of
life, as was demonstrated in one way
or another by most people, but that It
was necessary to know and love art
from childhood, as It could not be ac
quired as an excrescence later. In life.
Interesting reports were heard dur
ing the day from Mrs. L N. Chapman,
i biennial delegate on education at the
biennial meeting; -Mrs. Sidney J k Par
sons, chairman of libraries and port
folios; Miss Kate Lemberger, president
of the Southern district; M rs. ; Dixon I*.
Phillips,, president of the San Joaquin
district: Mrs. Oliver C. Bryant, presi
dent of the Los Angeles district (hex
report being read by.. Mrs. Barnum in
Mrs. Bryanfs absence); Mrs. P. Greg
ory Cotter, chairman of the art com
mittee; Mrs. John, A.. ; Bunting, ,chairy
man of the history and landmarks
committee.
Under the last named .department
Colonel John P.* Irish spoke • on " "What
Fremont : Found In • California." . He an
nounced In. opening, that It was a great
pleasure^.to stand in the presence of
this representative gathering of -women,"
which constituted ' a force : which" would
have to be reckoned with In" the public
affairs of California, in the future.' -He
\u2666 said that in the National Hair of, Statu
\u25a0 ary In Washington there was nolrep'
! resentative of California's history to-be
; found, and he urged the women of Call
1 fornia to advance the idea : that'the
' State should place there the, statues of |
; two of its notable- pien,S Fremont, and:
i Dr. William M. Gwin. both -"of ....whom
' did so much for this State in securing j
Its admlssion'.intothe^ Union*; and in
openlnglt to ! Amerlcan occupation. '
At - • the 'evening session •-- Mrs? E. < L.-

LID NOT DOWN ON
ALL SALOONS
"My experience has been limited, but
I never beard of a wo in an who rntcred

acter was beyond question.''— Police
Commissioner Harry Creawell. \u25a0' \u0084
."I*, have. There are barrooms r and
barrooms."— Police Commissioner Leahy.
The character of % female ; patrons of
saloons is dependent I upon -the char
acter of the barrooms j visited andinot
upon any ethical consideration of the"
right or wrong of the frailer;' sex
quenching Its thirst or tickling- its pal
ate in a public place. "This-is the opin
ion of one member . of \u25a0 San " Francisco's
Police Commission; .whose experience is
lmplledly more varied than that; of an
other member, -who saya that ':? any.
woman who patronizes a barroom must
have her character questioned. 1
The subject came up at last night's
meeting of the commission, when Com
missioner ; Creswell moved ; that : it -be
the; cause for the revocation of the li
cense of any saloon that allowed fe
males to patronize : Its ;bar or.congre-'
gate therein. Leahy said i that It -might
be well to allow womenMo ; patronize
some : saloons ; 'and . not others—^-he - was
In favor of taking up ; the individual

erty , declared ; that . he ; .would r l - vote

Is making snail's progress ) In ! the \u25a0 hear
ing, of i the ; complaints \ against \u25a0 the 1 sa
