The sixth session of the Bi-
Stone Federation of Women’s
Clubs was held Saturday in the
new auditorium of the Fairfield
high school with approximately
100 women from the Bi-Stone
Empire present.____
Mrs. Lex Smith, president of
the federation, called the meeting
to order at 9:30. The morning
| program consisted of an assembly
singing of “America the Beau-
| tiful” followed by an invocation
by Rev. J. N. Vincent
Very gracious welcomes were
given by P. D. Browne, in be-
half of the city of Fairfield, and
Miss Sadie Kirgari for the Fair-
field History club.
A fitting response was made
by Mrs. K. W. Sneed of Wortham
who paid special tribute to Miss
Kirgan whose article in a recent
issue of Holland’s magazine # has
been highly praised.
Mrs. Sam Cox of Mexia, pres-
ident of the Third District, was
introduced by Mrs.#Smith. Mrs.
Cox brought out in her talk the
objectives of the State Federa-
tion administration, giving a brief
description of the permanent
headquarters to be built at Aus-
tin. She spoke of the benefits
of a dean of women in high
schools and also urged thq im-
portance of every one making
themselves familiar with legisla-
tion of the state.
The beautification of Texas
was another objective Mrs. Cox
pointed out as being highly bene-
ficial and stated that the basis of
the whole program was a state
wide health campaign, stressing
l he fact that a citizen’s duties
are to public affairs as well...*,?
to their private interests.
Wants Concentration.
In closing Mrs. Cox emphasized
the fact that “concerted thought
followed by united effort is nec-
essary to carry out any program
worfh while.” . • ,
Following Mrs. Cox, Mrs.
Smith read an appropriate poem

was grantetd a two years’ leave
of absence from the college to
devote hi&^ time and ability to-
ward this work. He brought his
subject most clearly and defi-
nitely* to his audience and quick-
ly gained the sympathy toward
this movement of all who heard
him.™ Mr. Woods emphasized
most emphatically that this move-
ment did not sponsor nor approve
in the slightest degree the ques-
tion of equality but stated that
the real purpose of the commis-
sion is to make a desperate ef-
fort for the co-operation, fair
dealing and good will between the
two races.
Mr. Woods urged those present
to take interest and lend every
aid in indorsing the bill which
has been passed for a state main-
tained home for delinquent negro
girls so as to get the state legis-
lature to appropriate enough
money to build and maintain thi3

lowing regulations regarding the
taking of game:
