: D. A. R. MEETING
The November meeting, of the D. A. R.
kwas held on Friday afternoon with Mrs.
Mary Bates Miller.
.The Progran opened with 'two beautiful
vocal numbers by Miss Laura Bright, and
a piano solo faultlessly executed by Mrs.
M. C. Kellogg. Mrs. Geo Phelp$ was to
have read a paper on Aeroplanes but was
unable to "be . present so ; a general dis
cussion of the subject took place.
After transacting some business of the
society, delicious fruit salad made in the
form a poinsetto was served with wafers
and grape juice and was followed by hot
coffee. '
Mrs. Miller was assisted in entertaining
by Mrs. Gibson, Mrs. White and her at
tractive daughter, Miss Ellen Miller.
THE WOMAN'S CLUB
The regular meeting was held Monday
afternoon, Mrs. Eugene Walker, presiding.
After some matters of business had been
disposed of, Prof. Koch of the Normal
gave an interesting talk on some phases
of .the political contest in New York City, I
and in Cincinnati. . An informal discussion
was held on the problem of convict labor
on the roads, led by Madam Piotrowski.
In the absence of Mrs. D. L. Cobb, her
paper on ''Methods of Promoting Votes
for Women,' was read by Mrs. James Bur-
nam, as was also the paper of Mrs. A. R.
Burnam, on "Mary Wollstonecraft" The
paper on "Miss Julia Lathrop and the Chil
dren's Federal Bureau," was read by Mrs.
Eugene Walker, in the absence of Mrs.
Yates McKee. It was a . matter of regret
that both Mrs. Burnam and- Mrs. McKee
were unable to be present on account of
illness. The papers of all were interesting
and did credit to their authors. We wish
some philanthropic organization might
, make it possible for an institution like the
Woman's Clud to have a larger room than
the one they now occupy, so that the
public might have the benefit of their re
searches and discussions. The Club is
purely an unselfish agency, and desire only
the general good. The next meeting will
be held November the 17th, and will be
