Those attending the meeting of the
City Federation at Carnegie Library
lliis morning realize that these women
are very much alive to the issues af-
fecting tlio welfare of that organiza-
tion. Kver.v woman present had n
part in the discussions which were
of the most interesting nature. It
was an informal scsion and largely as-
sumed the character of a "heart to
heart” talk. Tlie proceedings were
largely -of « family nature, so to-
speak. and the incraliers agreed to be
very (discreet.
-Mrs; Silas Hare, president, was in
the chair and called tlie roll which dis-
closes the presence of delegates from
all the eltlbs ill the Federation. Ih
view of the fact that other women's
organizations suspend activities dur-
ing the summer months, tlie .Federa-
tion decided to have its regular meet-
ings. the first Thursday in each month,
as .It combines elements from all the
other elnlis. Mrs Is' Grande Woods,
president of the Civic league stated
that while the League does not meet
during the heated term, its laliors
must go on. and she asked tlie support
of the Federation in promoting meas-
ures inaugurated by the League. Bv
motion, the meeting adjourned till
the 1st Thursday in .Tune.

Apply Zemo, Clean, Penetrat-
ing, Antiseptic Liquid
It is unnecessary for you to sutler
with eczema, blotches, ringworm, rashes
,ind similar skin troubles. Zemo,
obtained at any drug store for 35c or
ill.OO forextra large bottle, and prompt-
ly applied will usually give instant relief
from itching torture. It cleanses and
soothes the skin and heals quickly and
effectively most skin diseases.
Zemo is a wonderful, penetrating,-
disappearing liquid and is soothing to
' the most delicate skin. It isnotgreasy,
is easily applied and costs little. Ge*
College Hill Literary Club.
Last Saturday witnessed the close
of tlie study year for the College Hill
Literary Club when the members met
with tlie president. Mr/ T. S. Clycp.
As a mark of special fayur. the honor-
ary menda'rs had la'en invited to this
meeting. Tlie young daughter of the
house. Miss Elizabeth Cl.vee. opened the
session with two well selected read-
ings.
Th\jUning room and lil rary had
lieen converted Into a school room
filled with tables and these ni<alcrii j
dull women were magically, converted j
into little kindergarteners who sjamt
one period midst the joys of chewing j
sum which was used as a mediuni
for modeling cats, dogs, monkeys and
nil the other animals dear to child-
hood life. Promotions were very rap-
id in tills school, for the kindergar-
teners Siam dove-loped into the A. B.
('. class, which was put through the
ordeal of a contest in arithmetic, geog-
raphy and physiology. Tlie marvelous
growth of their mentality was further
demonstrated In “An Auto Rmpancp”
when* the names of Shakespearean
plays were used to illustrate the
point.
The intellectual accomplishments of i
the class were so uniform as to pre-j
vent the selection of any particular!
pupil for the distinction of valedie- j
torian. So the old method of a out |
had to !k» employed, and flip honor
fell on Miss Lorene Book Her popu-
larity was further attestptLby the pre-
sentation of a copy of “Here Mable.”
The rejuvenating afternoon was
closed by an abundant consumption
of ehoeolnte cream and angel cake.
So happily was the afternoon spent
that, the guests are already anticipat-
ing their next president's day with
Mrs. Clyee.
