with its numerous abstract ideas clearly portrayed and delivered in amostpleasing manner a synopsis of which follows The principle of organization is love of ones neighbor It is the reaching out of mo soul in aid and comfort to another There is a humanizing influence that comes with organization crystalizing ideas into actions an influence that has a tendency to banish selfishness oppression and sectarianism sec-tarianism With organization comes a feeling of I mutual trustfulness of solidity of confidence confi-dence in the power of concerted action which enables every worker to give his best strength to the undertaking In club life woman learns to feel the sacredness of home life to see existing wrongs and to search out and apply needful need-ful i remedies She learns to think and to express her thoughts clearly to discuss subjects amicably and logically In cities clubs are often the first to institute insti-tute radical reforms or to call tho publics attention to crying evils
