the unified federation and feel that and John MoConnell. it is a power not to be assumed unthinkingly.
No one speaker at the convention set forth more clearly the changing ideals of the club movement than Sirs. Elizabeth E. Mats, of Pittsburgh, chairman of the Citizenship Department of the State Federation, '«> urging women to take a militant part in politics, she told them the day of encyclopedic expositions of the dark days in China was over for them."
In that sentence stands revealed the difference between the attitude of the clubwoman of today and of yesterday.
They thought of the "cultural" programmes of the past when the club waa .regarded as a diversion and the. benefit to be derived was individual and selfish, and contrasted those programmes with those of last year and the eVen broader ones mapped out by the federation for this club year.
Where club members used to shudder over the "heathenish customs of the Chinese and Japanese and wrote long treaties on cannibal tribes, they now are dealing with international problems fcnd working toward world peace. No logger arc they saying, "this is terrible- rwe disapprove." They are formulating definite, constructive criticism and for what they would demolish they have something they regard as better.
Although international questions will play a prominent part in this year's club activities, the convention did Hot stop slve
there. Definite and comprehen-programn tea in educational and
public health problems are also being * mapped out.
Their study of politics also will be carried on In a different way by the clubwomen.
Mrs. Mot/, told the delegates that too much of the clubs' political study had been concerned with the details of politics rather than politics in broad er aspect.
There is no club in the federation of anv size which does not have its political science department and the session of convention conducted by the federation political science department waa- one of the most interesting of the week and one to which the delegates gave absorbing attention.
It was generally commented on by the older club members and by the visitors that the "dabbling" attitude of the clubs towards politics is gradually helng replaced by an active working knowledge and interest.
Mrs. Clifford Pinchot, in her address at the closing session of the convention, expressed the changing sentiment of the women when she told them that only through their active participation in politics could the problem of the world be solved.
Junior Movement Grows The clubs wilt never become active
political Organisations, it is generally felt, but the clubwomen as individuals are lining no more and more with den
drite women s political groups. Many club members ate leaders in political organisations. Hat whether they are members of political groups or not, and whether they are taking an active part ip polities, there are few women in the] federation who are not taking some Interest, even if a passive one, in pen tics.
In commenting on the growth of the federation as a whole, delegates never failed to point out the greater development in the Junior club sections.
Started five years ago as an experiment in Delaware county, the Junior movement has been taken up by the General Federation and Is spreading throughout the country. The State Federation was particularly gratified at' the report of Mrs. Henry H. Parker, of Lansdowne, State chairman of the Juniors, that the Delaware county group now numbers more than 000 members.
The junior work of the federation is now regarded as one of the sapst important of i>i interests and the Juniors had a more prominent part in the convention programme than ever before.
Through the organization of Junior work, the sen'or rluhs feel that th»>v are not only combatting the frivolous and selfish pleasur* xeeklng ttfidemies of the girl of today and replachig them with ideals of service. bw» that tiiev are building "i> anl Iralrtlng a which will cs't.v on work thai fh••' have started,

Ethical Culturist So Explains Its Present-day Impotence I
The increase in knowledge and the advance of science has virtually broken the great power which the Church held over the people in former days, I)r. Algernon S. Crapsey, of Rochester, N. Y., told the members of the Ethical Culture Society yesterday in an address on "The Decline of Authority," in the Academy Of Music.
"In the early history of the race when families first began to be founded," said Dr. Crapsey, "the father was the head of the family group, who had to protect i ts members. His authority was supreme. He could have as many wives as be desired, and do with the children as he pleased.
"After the social organisation became extended and villages and townships were formed the authority passed into the hands of the military men and the chieftains became the supreme power.
. "Later the Church developed Into a theocracy with absolute power over bbth tyody and soul, but the advance of knowledge shattered Its authority.
"In the Eighteenth Century the industrial revolution loomed up. The Invention of machinery gave power to the manufacturer, the employer of labor - the capitalist. Labor has made steady progresa until the conflict for authority is now concentrated in these two groups."

Value of diphtheria antitoxin is stressed in a special bulletin made public yesterday by l»c Department of Public Health. ,
The discovery of the antitoxin was made by Dr. Emil Von Rchr'in in 1800. The bulletin continues:
"The application, of antitoxin In the cure of diphtheria was not, general until 1894. It was first distributed by the Bureau of Health in this city in 1890. At that time the death rate from diphtheria waa 90 P^r 100,000 population. Last year the death rate from this diseaso was 14.8 per 100.-000, the lowest record in the history of the city. The general use of diphtheria antitoxin, coupled with prompt. measures of isolation, school medical inspection and modern laboratory methods, have largely been responsible for the reduction In the mortality from this Infectious disease.
"In spite of this reduced deoth rate, there were reported in 181 Ml,'8505 cases of diphtheria and in 1022. .'1000 cases. These statistics do not indicate that the prevalence of the disease has been curbed in the same proportion as the mortality. It is not enough to prevent death,alone, since many of the children recovering from an attack of diphtheria muy suffer throughout their lifetime from a cardiac defect brought about by the poisons circulating in the blood and produced by the diphtheria germs.
Vaccination Is Urged "There is need, therefore, for some
additional measure of prevention. Such a measure was discovered by Schick in 1010, who found a way to determine by a simple teat whether one was na-turolly immune or not against diphtheria. This further led to the development of a toxin-antitoxin mixture which when iniectcd three times at specified intervals, immunized the susceptible Individual against diphtheria.
"The Department of Public Health and the Philadelphia County Medical Society is about to wage an intensive campaign against diphtheria ' at this time and will urge upon the public the necessity of having all children, particularly those of prc-school age, in-noculated against this disease.
"Parents may obtain information about Schick testing . ond toxin-antitoxin immunization from the family physician or by applying to any one of tho ten health centres in this city or by writing to the "Division of Child Hygiene, 715 City Hall.
"The serum used . in the immunization is harmless and its protective powers are regarded by leading authorities as positive,.
Since diphtheria becomes prevalent with the approach of cold weather, it is advisable that vaccination against this disease be performed now, when it will be of greatest benefit."
Presbyterian at Baptist Ceremony Urges -Denominations to Co-operate
Rev, Robert Norwood Sees Rise of Protestant Leadership in U, S, and World
A plea for co-operation among the churches of different denominations was hiadc yesterday by Rev. Dr. Oeorge Emerson Rarnes, pastor of Overbrook Presbyterian t-hurch, when he addressed the gathering at the ceremonies attending the cornerstone-laying of Overbrook Baptist Church, Sixty-third street, and Malvern avenue.
Saying "in these days we live hy friendliness alone and forget our dif fcrences," Dr. Parue.s stressed (he. necessity of unity among the churchcR.
"It is, not. so important to have..uniformity'among the churches," he said, "but it is imperatively necessary to have unity.''
Rev. Robert Norwood, rector of the Memorial Church of St. Paul. Overbrook. expressed the thought that "Protestantism is the hope of the world."
Protestantism, he said, will assume leadership over all other denominations in the near future, and the men and women of the United S la tes rallying around its standard will lead all the other nations of the world to amity and prosperity. 9
