A wesnan's" cub ! Who ever
Aeardtthe like I What do womon
. want club ? Have you any
aims or objects ? These aTe-ques-
tions ask day after day, by men,
' of course. And I answer that
..; in our humble.Tray we are striving
to imitateyour example. You
1 have your exclusive clubs and
' irhyshould( we not have ours?
What is so pleasant and so pro
t motive of. your interests cannot
be detrimental to us, and that
' you find'these reunions helpful
to yourselves we cannot doubt.
Of our own knowledge we are
pot able to say what is so attrac
"" live in your assemblies, for it has
not been thought best for our in
t,rest that we should even . sit
at your tables, or share in your
. councils and doubtless' therefore
in our blindness, and ignorance
V we have made some pitiful mis
" takes.
But we in our club work pro
pose the inculcation of deeper
and broader ideas among women,
-propose to read and thbk for
ourselves and "get our opinions
at first hand, not so much be-
caus'e it is our Tight as because
it is our' duty. We propose to
study Literature, Philanthropy,
Self-Culture and Improvement
in every way possible. To make
all work honorable by each do
ing the share that falls to her,
'Cheerfully and faithfully not
going down to ifcr but bringing it
.up to. her. To enter our protest
against all idle gossip, all de
moralizing and wicked waste of
time in short against each and
very thing that opposes the full
development and use of the fac-1
ul ties conferred upon us by our
Creator.
Such are some of our objects
And aims. We do not pretend a
yet to have any clearly defined
plans. We are as children feel
ing'our way in the dark, for you
must remember thaf it is, only a

looking creature and doubtless
suffered a kind of mania.
