ETIIE DDJECT DF THE MEETING.
Defined ly the President in her Welcemlnn Ad-
dress-«F1110 Literaryand Historical Socie-
ties of the Nomad: Contribute to a
lost Pleasing Programme.
The “Literary Symposium" at the
Central club, yesterday afternoon, was
most interesting and significant. The
Central club had invited the five liter-
ary and historical clubs of the two cities
to contribute one number each to the
programme. There were represented
the Daughters of. the American Revolu-
tion, Friday Afternoon club, The Girls"
Literary club, Paragraph club. Woman’s
club. The presidents of each society
were invited to seats on the platform.
The welcoming address of the president.
Mrs. J. G. Gregory, defined the object of
the meeting and outlined 1116' purposes
of her own club. She said: '
"To welcome so many members of
women’s clubs would be a pleasure at
all times and under all circumstances
We feel particularly, however, that in
meeting with us today you are helping
us to realize one of our dearest wishes.
While up to this time the Central club
'has pursued actively, and. it has reason
to hope, with :1. fair measure of success,
the social, practical and educational pur-
poses of its organization, yet it has never
so fully as today, in this thoroughly rep-
resentative gathering, carried out what
was, after all, the most impor-
tant object of its formation—that
of making a Central club home
for all the women's clubs of the
greater Norwalk. A little less than a
year ago, when we took the somewhat
venturesome stop of securing our house,
it was with the hope that the various
clubs which had flourished and grown
and succeeded before we were even
dreamed of would work in sympathy
with us, and we have not been disap-
pointed. While the five visiting clubs
are here by invitation, yet it pleases us
to be able to remind them that several
of them are present, also, as of right.
Our rules provide that any woman’s
club, half of whose members belong to
the Centraljclub, may use our assembly
rooms. Happily for us, the mem-
bership of our club is so representative
that this condition is fulfilled in the ease
of a majority of Norwalk‘s woman‘s
clubs. We feel, therefore, that we are
but calling you to your own today, and
only opening the door by invitation,
through which you may pass hereafter
of your own accord.
"The Central club, though obliged to
yield precedence in point of age even to
The Girls’ Literary club, is quite content
to thus assume the role of an adopted
mother to all the clubs. and to welcome
them with a glowing hearth, and a
wann heart. We shall all be gainers by
this, because we may all partici—
pate in the sprightly. up-lo-date
spirit of the Paragraph club, in
the solid literary work of the
Woman’s and Friday Afternoon club, in
the patriotic researches of the Daughters
of the American Revolution, and last,
but not least—in love~iuth11 nswectuess
and light” of the dear little (liris’ Liter-
ary club.

We shall not object to being called “new
women,” so long as W11 may define the
term in our own way, exemplify it in
our own lives. and illustrate it with the
work of such clubs as have met here to-
day. Ben-ire the passing of this genera-
tion it will behoove the men to cease

At its close the audience was request-
ed to remain for a few minutes and Mrs.
Frank Comatock presented a plea for
the adoption of the white columbine as
a national flower, enforcing it by an
outline of cogent reasons. issued by the
Columbine association, of Boston.
There was pinned to the screen 11. very
beautiful calendar with columbines
tastefully arranged. and a drawing of
the flownr,dono by Mrs. (i.Willis White.
The suggestion was made that each
club, at its next meeting, should discuss
the matter and vote upon it.
The whole afternoon was certainly
much enjoyed and was a stimulus to
those present. There is much good
work done in the clubs of the town and
it is most interesting to have 1111 oppor-
tunity to exchange ideas, and to have
some of the papers given a little larger

St. Paul’s Industrial school is an i11~
stitution about which Norwalk people—-
outside of St. Paul's church—seem to
know very little. This cannot be be-
causo its object is unimportant or be
cause it does not meet with success. for
neither of these things 112111 be said of it.
Probably the reason public attention is
not of ion drawn to it is that it is carried
on soquietly, or, as a newspaper 1111111
would say, “it is not advertised
enough."
Yet an average of seventy-live girls
of various ciceds, countries and condi-
tions meet every Saturday afternoon in
the large basement of the Chapel of 0111'
Holy Saviour, in Berkeley street, to
11111111 to sew. Incidentally they are
taught to march and to sing. to be 111'-
