POLITICS IS NOW WOMEN'S THEME Jinks Are Things of the Past With Club Folk Luncheons and Receptions to Lead Events Until June 1 MARY ASHE MILLER Now draws near the time when clubwomen turn their thoughts to dignified frivolities and politics. "Jinks" are a thing of the past with the holiday season, but annual luncheons or which the same things are eaten, but which gain different titles according to the temperament of the club directors annual receptions will dot the club calendars until the end of the club year about June 1. These occasions are marked by an elaboration of food and clothing floral decorations and toasts which represent lines of club "uplift' 'and aspiration, treated more or less ligrhtly.

again according to temperament. In regard to these speeches, or responses, but one suggestion may be offered. That is that they be kept within a brief space of time. No one woman should be permitted to talk more than seven minutes. Beyond that she Is boring more of her audience than she is entertaining FEW TALK INTERESTINGLY LONG There are few subjects on which the average woman Is able to be interesting for a longer space of time, save to those who the subject of discourse deeply at heart.

Even then it is probable that they are dying to tell their part or ask questions before more than 10 minutes are gxme. If a woman has a message, it will go home more surely if it is brief. If she seeks to amuse, certainly more than seven minutes of diversion will begin to defeat Its own end. Probably the is enjoying herself, but it is a time to cultivate unselfishness. Mrs.

Percy L. Shuman, president of the San Francisco district of the state federation, Is being congratulated heartily and genuinely on the success of her district council luncheon a week ago. Much of the delight of the affair lay in the fact that Mrs. Shuman limited her speakers as to time and held them strictly to it. Those who had one minute to talk were stopped on the sixty-first second in the midst of a word, even if it happened to be a long Let other toastmistresses remember this.

Allot the time among the speakers and hold them down. It may offend them, but the audience will rise up and call you blessed, and you will gain the majority. At the average club luncheon women would rather eat and talk comfortably in leisurely fashion to the end of the menu. Then provide them with a brief program: brief, remember; not heavy or sad or businesslike. It is supposedly a time of merrymaking with the club members and their guests.

There are executive sessions of the club for serious things. If there is one thing which It should be the mission of the disinterested but observant club writer, who has sat through many club festivities and heard the comments, to impress on the clubwomen, it is a realization of the Joy caused by a short program. likewise let the club leader learn the little couplet: "A little nonsense now and then ts relished by the wisest men." When a playtime comes, play like real women and don't mix It up with Some consclentibus effort to maintain an intellectual club spirit- As, for politics, club officers will manifest themselves like roses in June within the next few weeks. Virtually all the organizations elect their officers at the end of April or early In May, and all those who are not candidates are followers of candidates. Mothers' clubs will omit their meetings this week, because of the vacations in the public schools, but interest is being maintained in the passage of the bill now pending in the state legislature for the establishment of kindergartens in any public school when a petition is presented signed by 25 residents of the district.

The mothers' clubs and the- congresses of mothers have all given this bill their heartiest backing. Mis 3 Anna Irene Jenkins, chairman of the kindergarten committee of the California congress of mothers, and Mrs. H. X. Rowell.

president of the congress, are in Sacramento using their utmost efforts for it, and a petition of many signatures is being circulated. Mrs. J. 1C Adkins, president of the Golden Gate Mothers' club, and chairman of the child dependency committee of the San Francisco congress of mothers, is working under the direction of Mrs. Almont Gates, chairman of the state committee, and is beginning an active campaign in behalf of the dependent children of the city.

Members of the Richmond Woman's club, who are devoting all their energies toward the civic betterment of their district of the city, are working now to obtain a new location for the proposed Carnegie library. It has been planned to erect the building on the lot between Ninth and Tenth avenues, Geary and Clement but the clubwomen feel that It migrht better be placed elsewhere.

The neighborhood is not considered so desirable for a handsome publio building and a plea Is being made fhat it be put in Thirteenth avenue. The city has property In this avenue between Geary and Clement streets, a firehouse being on the end which faces Twelfth avenue. Ample space for the library building Is to be found on the Thirteenth avenue end, and a committee from the club vis- ited the library commissioners at their last meeting and made the request- The matter has been taken under consideration. The new Sutro schoolhouse Is near this lot and handsome homes surround It.
