MISS CATHERINE CAMPBELL.

. The neat home of the P. L. F. club

completed during the present year at
Garden and Holly streets, has brought
this organization prominently before
the public. It was the second such
club house erected in the. state of
Washington, stands as a monument to
the enterprise of its builders and
makes the club take a recognized place
as an institution in the life of the
community. With the Aftermath now
constructing a home on extensive
scale at West Holly street and Broad-
way, Bellingham will be able to boast
two of the best ediﬁées of the kind in
the northwest.

The P. L. F. club was organizedA

September 8, 1900 with seven charter
members, Mrs. W. H.’ Axtell, Mrs. L.
H. Darwin, Mrs. C. S. Roray, Miss Nel-
lie' Lee, Miss Mabel Donovan, Miss Ida
Agnes Baker, and Miss Catherine
Montgomery. It was federated with
the state federation of women’s clubs
October 20, of the same year, and was
incorporated under the laws of the
state of Washington September 4,
1904. At the close of its ﬁrst year
its membership had grown to thirty-
nine; at present its number is ﬁfty.

One of the leading events in the so-
cial world of the present week has
been the sale of Mexican fancy work
and other articles, carried on by mem-
bers of the c ub at their home. This

has been largely attended and the'

means of producing considerable rev-

most economical and effective way is
the keynote to success in the united
efforts of women. A live club must
not only do good literary work, but
must be a potential factor in mould-
ing public opinion and must be inter-
ested in the sociological and humani~
tarian development of the communi-
ty in which it exists, otherwise it has
only half fulﬁlled its mission.

“It is natural to expect from the al«
truistic work of club women immediate
tangible results. This .is such a give
and take world, that club women
should be willing to sow for others to
reap.y Ethical changes cannot be
shown like a sum in arithmetic with
the right answer at the end of the
book. In short, Mrs. Burdett’s deﬁnia

only to the P. L. F. club members but
to all sister, organizations as well:

“ A true club woman is not a sel—
ﬁsh, self—seeking, emotiOnal, tangent
woman, but rather the gracious, home
loving, humanity loving, thoughtful,
patriotic, woman citizen, working ever
toward better things.”

“Club work is oft times strenuous,
but when busy housekeepers, society
women, -authors, artists, musicians,
teachers, etc., all meet together in the
study of child-life, science, literature,
history, art, civics, household econo-
mies, language and religion, all rea—
soning together with tolerance and
liberality for each other’s opinions, all
this certainly means something for the
future culture (it a nation—for it must
be instrumental in making all our
women citizens larger in their ideas
broader in their sympathies, nobler
in their work.”

present are, Mrs. A. M. Muir, presi-

enue to apply on the investment of the
building. The cozy interior of the
little house was never made more at—
tractive than it is at 'the present
time.

The motto of the P. L. F. club is,
“The world is advancinc'. Advance
with it.” The letters P. L. F. by the
way, stand for Progressive, Literary
and Fraternal. In discussing the his—
tory of the building and the progress
of the club, Mrs. W. H. Axtell, presi-
(tellL of the society for the ﬁrst three
years of its existence, and now presi-
dent of the business incorporation,
said that it was found impossible to
carry on successfully the two phases of
the work, literary and altruistic, with-
out a club house. Failing in its effort
to secure a union building which
might be used by the various wom-
en’s organizations of the city, as is
done in many communities, it under-
took the erection of the modest P. L.
F. clubhouse, now completed.

“It is hoped by our members,” said
Mrs. Axtell, “ that many women with-
in and without the club may derive
much pleasure and profit from the
building and that it may become the
center of many educational and phil-
anthropic inﬂuences. <
“The Industrial School’s kindergar-

ten olass now ﬁnds. within the blub
rooms a most desirable place for work

fulness far beyond the limits of its

and best composers. The orchestra of
ﬁfteen pieces was well balanced and
numbered several most gifted young
musicians. The celebrated Marino
soon won the audience, and was ex-
ceedingly gracious in responding to
encores. After his second number, he
was repeatedly recalled and ﬁnally
responded with a beautiful selection
given without accompanimnt.

The performers and those in the
audience who wished not to lose a
note of the music, were repeatedly
annoyed by talking and moving about
during the playing of numbers. Some
strict measure should be adopted by
the management of theaters, to pro-
tect those who pay their money and
desire the beneﬁt of the full perform-
ance. Whispering should be strictly
prohibited and no person should'be
allowed to walk down an aisle dur-
ing a number at a musical perform-
ance. To a ﬁnely organized musical
temperment one might as well beat,
loudly on a tin pan. '

The last week in society‘has not“.
far from that, yet there

be termed “functions.” Milady of'so—

THANKSGIVING.

Is it for autumn‘s {lame and gold, '
’l‘hat unto Thee our thanks are told?
,as it for fame or fortune’s gain
Won through the way of tears and

Is it for eloquence of men,

Of silver tongue or goldexrpen—

ls it for beauty, wealth or power

\Ve offer praises in this hour?

No, no. my Lord—a mightier word
Must reach to Thee—of men unheard!
Alone with Thee and God above
‘We whisper thanks for Thy dear love.
The world is little, Lord but Thou

A warm and loving friend. we Vow
That live alone is meet to bring

To Him who of love's-realm is King.

When all the tale of life is told!
And what of wisdom is the gain

“There bet/Jty ﬁlls a far, dream-land,
Where men and women faultless
stand— -
\Vhere roses twine the sunny hours
And perfume sleeps in evening bowers

And curve the sleeping infant's mouth

THE IIODIE GATHERING.

The spirit of Thanksgiving is here.
As {1711 seasons have their atmosphere
of sentiment, pleasure. and anticipa—
tion, sureiy the Thanksgiving time,
the close forerunner of still a hap—
pier time——the ChriStmas tide———is tru—
ly all that its name implies.

The hearts of the people are drawn
together by invisible threads of good-
wnl and thankfulness, that grow into
a strong cord of reverence that binds
us all in one great Thanksgiving har-
mony.

There is a grand, common impulse
that sweeps the heart of our land at
this time to worship. VVe' remember
all our benefits—the ceaseless loving-
kindness that follows our often way-
ward footsteps. We remember our
golden harvests, the peace within our
borders—\ve remember friends—love
—-—our mothers and God! W'e seek
the sacred portals of' the church, and
here, while the stately lily and chrys-
anthemum lift their purity all un—
afraid to Heaven, we bow our heads
in humble thankfulness, but with
hearts lifted with the certainty of the
flowers, thatour offering is accepta—
bie and well pleasing in the sight of
Iiim who delights in giving to His
children, ’

The Home Gathering on Belling-
ham Bay can afford to be one of the
most joyfu1 in all the land. Can we
name anything, that we do not pos-
sess? Our state is one of the greatest.
There is gold and precious metals in
our hills, ﬁsh in our seas, forests of
wealth and plains waiting for habita-
tion to make them a garden of Eden.
We are sons of afﬂuence in many ways.
Our snow capped mountains, our pur—
“pie isles, our sunsets,‘are beautiful
beyond words. Our roses are still
clambering over our verandas in a
riot of joy, their branches heavy-la—
den with bloom and bud!

And then our people are treasures
——they have the sunshine of good—will
and friendship in their faces. They-
are charitable, not only in theory, but
in practice profoundly respecting
personal intellect and moral convic—
tion. In the great west we have rug-
gedness, strength of originality,
breadth and height. And the people
are Westerners,

Our houses are not yet built cheek
by jowl, we all have a front yard
where we can exercise and plant ros-
es. And We are thangful.

THE MARINO CONCERT.
Shall “'e Have Only the Good, or
Shall “'e Have the Best?
iIai‘an the Italian violinist played
to a small house Thursday evening in
ieck‘s theater.

Bellingham is all right but some-
times Bellingham is too busy. Thurs-
dey evening was one of those very
busy times and Bellingham suffered a
loss.

You have all heard the story about
the ambitious young man that marj
ried a pretty wife, placed her in a‘
comfortable home and then went out
in the world to make a fortune of
dollars. He was gone day and night
for many years engrossed with his
work. His wife complained, but he
was always busy. In ten years he
came home a wealthy man to enjoy
his own fireside, but his wife was buSy
with other interests. The sweet affec-
tion of their early youth could not be
revived—a golden time was forever
lost.

\Vell, Pietro Marino was here
Thursday evening and Bellingham
was busy. “\Vhat is the particular
loss,” says one, “that you make so
much fuss about it-—even.if he was
the most wonderful, of artists?”

It would be difficult, I am afraid,
to make this questioner understand
his loss. ’ .

Any good and great inﬂuence beat-
ing upon the soul, whether it comes
through a beautiful picture, a har-
mony of tones in music, beauty or
kingly and tender words of kindness
“is a wonderful gain. It is reﬁning,
enobling and brings us the deepest
and greatest enjoyment.

In this-Jousy day of work and ac-
tiOn, we often have to make a real ef-
fort to find time for the really good
things. It is more essential for our
aesthetic nature to be sustained, than

it is for us to have our ,daily dinner.
VYe are complex, and must have all
we need, or we will dwarf in what-
ever function is neglected.

Even if no deeper need is felt, it is
fashionable to be cultured to hear
and see the best. in art; this should
not appeal in V'iin. ,

Marino is a wonderful artist. His
temperment and personality seems to
partake largely of the harmony of
music—he is one with his art. His
face is ideally poetic—beautiful as a
Murillo dream, under the inspiration
of his work. This Marino can draw
your soul into another world by the
exquisite sweetness and purity of his
musical expression—he can also show
you that he is sure enough, man and
modern intrepeter by the way
plays “Tessie” and conducts an‘or-
chestra.

The program presented Thursday
evening at Beck’s was not heavy, but
of very high class, introducing fa-

vorite compositions of the masters

The reception given by the Nor-
mal seniors at the Normal last even-
ing was a most delightful affair and
largely attended.

One of the very popular dancing
parties of the week was given by the
young men of the B. B. Club Friday
evening in Swanton’s hall. About
one hundred and fifty guests were
present. .

At the VVhatcom High School in
Assembly Friday morning Mr. VVill-
iam Prior of Seattle one of the lead-

Seattle High school. In the after-
noon at the High School, the Friday
afternoon Literary society gavea very
entertaining program of readings,
speeches, and music.

The ladies of the Tuesday Cinch
Club will give a series of dancing
parties in the P. L. F. club house, the
ﬁrst one to be given next Saturday
evening. They will entertain a few
guests at each meeting.

One of the most interesting func—
tions of Thanksgiving week will be
the ball given on \Vednesday evening
in Swanton’s hall by the members of
the Golf club.
