Not cont ent wit h this phase of the work, the Chicago chibs sent on for Miss Dodge to come out and assist t hem in organizing the evening clubs so popular here, and she has returned reporting intense enthusiasm in the movement. In the eastern cit ies, where organization is accomplished, the work of progression and association engages the energy of club 1 workers About the suburbs of Uoston new clubs are being constantly formed and united in the .Massachusetts associa tion. Connecticut has recently gathered all her various organizat ions into a great state association. Brooklyn has a club as sociation, includjng the working girls’ clubs and those of other societies.

All sum mer the hospitable rooms were opened, when half the churches in the city had locked their doors, and the July and August meetings were always crowded with enthusiastic members. The work is being carried on as usual in all the old classes, and university and school extension is to be introduced this winter. The design of this new interest is to supplement the university and school systems by means of outlines for courses of study, class instruction, courses of lec tures, correspondence, examinations, etc., and thus to' develop a broader culture among those who have been debarred from the advantage of college or academic train- tttg* • The great, all absorbing interest is, how ever, the World’s fair, at which the clubs have been invited to present such results of their work as may be deemed practica ble. The clubs, as organizations, have no particular industrial products to present, but arrangements are now lieing consid ered by which they, or representative mcmliers of them, may be present to take part in the discussions by the women’s congresses of the economic, industrial and financial problems of the age. Among the topics included in these discussions will he “The Industrial Condition of Women,” including relative wages compared with those of men, relative value of wages pro- portioned to cost of living, occupations, benefits derived from organizations, etc. The Economic Dependence of Women” In Assyria women are sold a.s slaves to work with oxen at llie plow.
