Dr. 0. J. P. Widtsoe piesented Browning's poem, "A Death in the Desert," in an in-, strnctive manner. He suggested dif- ferent ways in which Browning may be studied, spoke of the poet's mastery of, verse and gave illustrations to show his greatness. Reference was also made to irregularities in versification and con-! struction. The great poet thought not so much of the vehicle as of the content. That is to soy that matter is of more importance than the manner. The poem ' under consideration could not exactly be classed as lyrical, even though there 'are lyric passages. It is not just a uar-rative uar-rative poem although a story really is told. Neither would it be classed as a, didactic poem though a lesson is clearly conveyed. Dr. Widtsoe called attention to the religious, philosophical and spiritual meaning of different passages. , Browning is strong on Biblical themes, he said, and the essence or meaning or the poem is that Christ is divine and his message from God. The mid-biennial council of the General Gen-eral Federation of Women's clubs will be held in Portland, Ore., on June 1, 2 and 3, and the chairman of the programme pro-gramme committee announces that it is the aim of the committee to make this a council for the purpose of canvassing the various interests of the organization in a sort of asset and liability form; of giving the General Federation secretaries an opportunitv to be heard on the interests inter-ests of the states they represent, and of laving stress on the "duty of women in the matter of the peace movement.

Miss Helen Louise Johnson, chairman of the home economics department General Gen-eral Federation of Women 's clubs, has recently gotten out a letter requesting all clubs to enter a contest for the best definition of a home. Mrs. Johnson says: Wanted A home. The aim of home economic study and research is the betterment of homes. .Modern .Mod-ern economic and social conditions have developed tendencies and consequences con-sequences frequently detrimental to home life. For the preservation of that which is best and highest in human life, homes arc essential, not merely for the family, but for each individual person. After long deliberation and discussion, dis-cussion, we have felt that if we could interest the club women to conscientiously study and define certain things, it would greatly assist as-sist us in establishing the vital purposes pur-poses and relations of home economics. eco-nomics. We believe that by opening a prize contest for. tho best definition defini-tion of home, for our club women, it will bring out the real essence of home economics, and clarify the !?eneral ideas on the subject; that it will promote things of first importance im-portance to first rank and w-ill phow that we not only believe that the life is more than raiment, but that -we maintain this relation in all the work, aims and purposes of the department.
