It is ours to establish social ethics on the purest basis, to devise the wisest and most practical methods of municipal and administrative reform, to cleanse the Augean stables of impurity, to solve educational problems, to elevate and refine home and let the glad new light of science and literature shine through the opening chinks of mouldy walls built by prejudice and custom. It is emphatically our duty, and should be our eager de- light to We all believe with Wordsworth, that' War is mercy, glory, fame, Waged in freedoms holy cause; and we are all proud and glad that the stars and stripes wave over our battleships to carry freedom to the oppressed and liberty to those whom tyranny has so long despoiled. In the history of the world, never before has a strong, rich nation staked lives and fortunes on the issues of war, for the sole, unselfiish reason that a weak America neighbor suffers wrong. Bid knowledge grow from more to more, Till mind and soul according well, Shall make one music as before, But vaster. It is with interests as all engrossing as this, with a scope so far reaching and a purpose so wisely beneficent that the Federation of Clubs will meet in Denver in June. Ever since Shakespeare and Ben Johnson held admiring court among dramatic revelers, men have met together in clubs, eating clubs, talking clubs, drinking clubs, political clubs- - The club life has been the rival of the home and its unworthy substitute; it remained for woman to make the club, homes vital literary and moral adjunct, the place of inspiration to daily duty, where the dust is swept from antique time and victories of truth are won. With the inoffensive sword of native wit, Than the bare axe more luminous and keen. In every village of any considerable size, and in every city, these clubs of earnest, thinking women have been solving the worlds knotty problems and drawing forceful conclusions from careful premises. But this is an age of organization, and people have learned that the combined wisdom of many is a surer guide than the philosophy of even the most profound alone. Napoleon won his marvelous battle victories by condensing his forces of attack. So the nations clubs are now about to storm the strongholds of error by condensing their columns. The National Federation will be a binding together of the strongest battalions in all the clubs in all the land. Women went from the farthest extremes of the country to attend the Congress of Mothers at Washington, and the impulse given them from that gathering well repaid the effort. But here in Denver will be given, not alone the uplifting toward a higher conception of the sacred duties of motherhood, but, with that, an outlook over the broad field of human endeavor. There has never been in the United States a convocation of women representing so much and dealing with such vital issues. The very air will be surcharged with the electricity of mind acting upon nfind: A presence that will thrill us with the joy Of elevated thought; a sense rea-sone- r, sublime, Of power divinely sacred Have You 8een the Beautiful Line of LADIES SILK SKIBTS lOKEBnES LADIES SHOULDER CAFES and 10, IS. 1st South. 15) The Very latest Novelties.
