titude of the clubs towards it proposv

proposals seemed to have removed the

ay.
The fourth year of the administra-
tion of our loved president has been
devoted to strengthening tbe.bonds be—
tween the. clubs and the Federation
and to perfecting— every part as for
as humanely possible, it ' Imponsible
that such consettrution as has bwn
shown by Mary Merriman Abbott in
this work for the women of Connecti-
cut can fall of far reaching results.
Largely by her own endeavor she has
put Into the hands of our club women
power such as they do not yet realize.
They may realize it fully. only by fol-
lowing her example of personal uncri-
ticc. to an ideal.
The report of Mrs. Franklin New-
comh. of New Haven. chairman of the
Committee on Ciyics. was as follows:
The work of the civic committee is
so many-sided that there must be of
necessity a wide variety of methods
and plans ltt carrying ottt the. tinder-
lying thought. that is, the development
of intelligent, law-abiding citizenship.

the public sentiment. by village tut-
provement, by whatever good for the
uplifting of the community anti awak-
ening iu the authorities responsive
help.
Each cittb finds its own field of
worlt and to that its aid and interest
are given, whether by direct or round-
about methods.
One clttb in our state has given spe—
clul attention to school libraries, anti
has found this a valuable adjunct in
arousing town pritie\ amongst the
youth. At the same time this club
has taken special interest in the juve-
nile court bill and reports valuable re-
sults through the wisdom and friendli-
ness of the probation officer.

Still other clubs have seen with sud-
tiess the neglected and bramble ovcr-
grown cettieteries. and the toppling
headstones have been set in place, tltc
walks cleared. the stone walls around
the grounds have been repaired and
in one, Instance. at least, the town au-
thorities were so tnovmi by the club‘s
care anti energy that $i,tl(lti was voted
for cemetery improvement. '
in other towns the tattered and de-
moralizing bill boards have been look-
t‘tl alter and when their purpose has
been accomplished they are no longer
left to the mercy of the wind and rain.

and attention has been called to the

in Connecticut any many clubs are, giv-
lug lime and influence to the success
of this most henclicienttiaw. Acting
upon ,thc principle that eye and ear
and heart must join In the making of
good citizens. the clubs are striving to
accomplish this union and develop an
enlarged civic life in towns and clubs.
Miss Maria Parloa. chairman of the
Committee on Household ltlconomica~
reported the plans of the. Committee
for the future. She had prepared an
outline of study for the clubs as fol-
lows:
Two or more. topics could be. taken
