Interesting reports were read by Miss Ruth Matz, and Mrs. Dudley the club at the recent meeting of the Federation of Women's clubs of the Tenth Congressional district. A mo- tion was unanimously carried to send a resolution to our senator and con- gressman regarding the dians of New Mexico.

The attitude of chal- lenging authority is not popular in the present school. Work and service is the price of happiness which grows out of paying respect to the rights of others. Our schools must, above all, prepare our children for life as citizens if our democracy will succeed. Chil- dren should be taught to form definite and just opinions which should al- ways be expressed to lead them to a life of service and personal responsi- bility." The hostesses of the afternoon were Mrs. Earle S. Barber, Mrs. Lawrence Janney, Mrs. Ezra S. Taylor and Mrs. Walter F. Wallace. PREACHES IN EAST Rev.

A laundress would cost you about $200 a year, yet a Thor can be had for $115. It's more costly to do with- out a Thor--even if you do the work yourself. The Thor returns its price every year in the saving on clothes alone. Thor dissolves the dirt--does not pound or rub it out. There's great satisfaction, too, in having the clothes washed under your own sanitary, home con- ditions. Let us show you why over three- quarters of a million women use the Thor. Come in today.
