Fayetteville, May 7 The chief fea ture of Wednesday evening's session of the North Carolina Federation of Women's Clubs wag the address of Mrs. Percy V. Pennybacker, of Texas, president of the General Federation, who after many trials and tribulations on the road, arrived in the city shortly after midnight Tuesday. Mrs. Penny backer spoke on ,-The General Federa tion as a Sociological Force." The short reports of the club presi dents were continued and were a va ried and interesting feature. The evening's program, club presi dents evening, was distinguished by a delightful musical program as follows: Music "March Turque de Ruines d' Athens" Beethoven Southern Presbyterian Conserva tory Trio: Misses Annie Johnson. Jane Dickson, Vardell. Louise Dixon. Miss Mar garet Dixon, accompanist. Music Selected . Miss Severson Music Hungarian Dance No. 6 ..

This department of the Federation is one in which the women of the - state are particularly Interested and it has so far -outgrown the department that the chairman in troduced a resolution to have sub chairmen elected from each district. A statewide campaign under an or ganized specialist has been carried on in the state this year. A live discus sion of civic conditions, especially the interest shown by the colored peo ple followed. Dr. Dixon Carroll brought 70 MAN WOULD NOT GIVE UP Though Sick and Suffering; Af Last Found Help in Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegeta ble Compound. Eichmond, Pa. " When I started taking Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound I was in a dreadfully rundown health, had internal trou bles, and was so ex tremely nervous and prostrated that if I had given in to my feelings I would have been in bed. As it was I had hardly strength at times to be on my Wednesday's Session. To use an expression of Miss Eugene F.eil ley's addrtss, the virgins of today with their lamps filled with gasoline ready to speed on to the land o! endeavor and bis deeds of the twentieth century, gathered promptly in the auditorium of the graded school Wednesday morning at 9:20 o'clock, the opening session being called to or der by the president at 10 o'clock after the credentials had been received from the delegates. The invocation was made by Rev. W. R. Royall. pastor of the Hay Street Methodist church. Preceding the bus iness Miss Fries called to the front of the platform Mrs. Pennybacker, not to have an address from her, but simply to let the delegates know that she is really here. Mrs. Pennybacker expressed her pleasure in at last be ing in the city and told of her trials of delay along the way. She had come to learn, she declared, likening herself to a "talc bearer," carrying pleasant news from club to club. Reports of Committees. The chief business of the morning was the reports of the committees, first the committee on rules and regu lations, appointed Tuesday evening. Mrs. T. P. Jerman, chairman of the committee presented the report of the committee, regulating the conduct of the business sessions. The reports of the executive board and board of di rectors were read by the recording secretary. Miss Gertrude Weil. The reports of the Federation officers, first and second vice-presidents, recording secretary. corresponding secetary, treasurer and general federation state secretary followed. These were short and to the point, giving the most essential points that have marked their vear's work. Especially inter esting was the report of Miss Gertrude Weil, recording secretary, or the growth of the"" Federation during the year from 81 to 101 clubs, the body numbering 3.542 members. The Gener al Federation State Secretary report ed the addition of 660 new clubs during the two years, which has brok en all records for growth in the Gen eral Federation. An espeically interesting item of the treasurer's report was the announce men that the Sallie Southall Gotten lean fund has reached $1,336.69. Mrs. Rogers, of Charlotte, chairman of the committee on pledge to the General Federation again made the gratifying report she gave Tuesday evening that a check of $502 has been paid, wiping out the pledge of North Carolina to the General Federation. A very interesting feature of the ses sion was the introduction of the new clubs received into the Federa tion during the year. As these twen ty clubs were called by Mrs. Al. Fair brother, the presidents or represen tatives came to the platfor mto make their reports and at the request of the president remained for the remain der of the morning session, four Fayetteville clubs were among those introduced. They are: The Monday Afternoon Club, the Book Club, the Woman's Study Club and the Would-Be-Wise Club. To Drive Out Liquor. The most striking report of the morning was the stirring report of what the club women of the little old town of Bath have done during the six months of existence. Mrs. R. R. Cotten, the honorary president of the Federation, claimed this club as belonging to her section of the state. The oldest town of the state, she thought it dead, she declared, but the women have waked it up. One of the items of the report, received with greatest applause, was the declaration that a campaign had been instituted against the illegal sale of liquor in Bath. The delegate was delayed in arriving at the Federation, owing to being in court at Washingtont) but they intended to remain in court, she declared, until the sale of liquor is stopped. , The credential committee reported that the Federation is entitled to 129 votes, that number of delegates being recorded. The following ladies were elected by ballott on the nominating committee, who will present a suggested list of officers at the Friday morning ses sion, the new officers to be elected being first vice-president, recording secretary and treasurer: Mrs. K. Graham Chapel Hill; Dr. Dixon Car roll. Raleigh: Mrs. T. W. Lingle. Dav idson: Mrs. Henry White, High Point, and Mrs. J. A. Brown, Chadbourn. Reports of Departments. The business-like methods of the president and the co-operation with which the members responded with short concise reports so quickly dis patched the business of the morning that the afternoon's session was taken up about an hour before adjournment at 1 o'clock. The first of the reports of the chairmen of the departments being that of Mrs. T. W. Lingle, of Davidson, chairman of the civics de? partmeat. She made an extremely inter : feet and what I did do was by a great i effort. I could not sleep at night and j of course f eit very bad in the morning, ! and had a steady headache. "After taking the second bottle I no ticed that the headache was not so bad, I rested better, and my nerves, wera stronger. I continued its use until it made a new woman cf me, and now I can hardly realize that I am able to do eo much as I do. Whenever I know any woman in need of a good medicine I highly praise Lydia E. Pinkham's Veg etable Compound.'' Mrs. Frank Clark, 8146 N. Tulip St., Richmond, Pa, TTomen Hare Been Telling Women for forty years how Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound has restored their health when suffering with female ills. This accounts for the enormous demand for it from coast to coast. If you are troubled with any ailment peculiar to women why don't you try Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound? It will pay you to do so. Lydia E. Pink ham Medicine Co., Lynn, Mass. the information that there i3 a Stats Federation of Colored Women's Clubs and a number of delegates reported colored clubs in their towns. These reports were very gratifying as show ing what interest the colored women are taking "in reform work in the state. Plans of study for the civic departments' were also discussed. ' The Federation adjourned at 1 o'clock to enjoy the distinction of hav ing its picture taken on the steps of the school building by the "movie man.". During the intermission of an hour and a half a most delicious lunch was served by the club women of Fayette ville in the domestic science building and a social time was enjoyed togeth er. The women reassembled promptly at 2:30 o'clock, and during the after noon session the reports of the chair men of the departments was continu ed, also that of the club presidents. At 4 o'clock the convention ad journed to enjoy an automobile ride to points of interest in the city, the courtesy of the men of Fayetteville. Later they were the guests of Mrs. F. S. Clark at a garden party at Red Oak. Pledges to the Sallie Southall Cotten loan fund amounting to S3S4 were re ceived at the afternoon session. i RTH CAROL POSTMASTERS APPOINTED BY GEORGE H.
