American clubwoman, has been brought up to date--historically speaking-in a new book published by the General Federation of Women's Clubs.

The book, "Unity in Diversity," by. Mildred White Wells, traces-the club movement from its beginnings in scattered clubs in the United States in the early 1800's, through the founding of the General Federation of Women's Clubs (now the world's largest women's organization) in the 1890's, the present. According to Mrs. Wells, women's clubs, as we know today, sprang up in all parts of the country at about the same time with each group thinking it was unique. The earliest club records uncovered by Mrs.

Wells are those of the Ladies' Society of the City of Detroit, which organized in 1818. Unfortunately, the Ladies' Society did not survive. Female Education The oldest continuously existent club in the United States today, Mrs. Wells says, is the Ladies Education Society of Jacksonville, 111. It was organized in 1833 under the name of the Ladies Association for the Education of Females.

(Jennie June) Everyday Hand Care Beauty Key By VIVIAN BROWN AP Newsfeatures Beauty Editor Beautiful hands demand full- time upkeep, says lovely Blanche Thebom of the Metropolitan Opera. Miss Thebom, whose hands are so captivating one music critic wrote as lyrically about them as about her singing in a Delilah performance, doesn't owe their beauty to she: applying a waxy base coat over the top of the nail and underneath it, then two coats of polish over the base coat and adding a finishing coat of clear polish. This gives a good protective nail armor to your hands.

To remove every bit of batter from a bowl, when you are making cake or cookies, you'll find a rubber spatula is the best utensil you can use for this purpose.

Do the index fingers, middle fingers, fourth an'd little fingers as pairs to a rhythm supplied by your own humming.

Wear rubber gloves for household chores such as dishwashing and cleaning silver. Put on a good thick layer of hand-cream before donning the gloves. That way your hands get a lubricating massage all the time you're working. When removing the gloves, peel them off inside out and wash them with soap and water to remove grease so that the rubber does not deteriorate. After washing the hands, use land lotion.
