of club cooperation is that of the club women of Crete, Nebr., who have themselves taught domestic science for a number of years to public-school children, who come to their homes at stated times. Of 371 clubs reporting that such instruction had been introduced into the local public schools and of 261 clubs reporting courses in the local high schools the clubs themselves had helped to secure the introduction in 173 communities. Evening courses in household arts given by the schools are reported by 91 clubs.

Clubs and legislation.-The women's clubs have always interested themselves in supporting desirable social legislation, and committees on legislation are provided by local clubs and by the State and National federated organizations. The clubs have assisted materially in supporting pure-food legislation, both Federal and State. A question was asked as to whether local clubs had considered the proposed Federal legislation for "pure textiles" and for national grants for home economics and agricultural education; 87 of the local clubs had considered the textile bills and 36 clubs report that they have studied the proposed Federal legislation granting aid to home economics and agricultural education.

College extension teaching of home economies and women's clubs.The extension work in home economics of the State colleges and universities has frequently sought the cooperation of local women's clubs. A report of this extension activity from the standpoint of the clubs throws some light on the success of the cooperation: One hundred and seventy-seven clubs report that aid of some kind in the field of home economics has been extended to them by the State institutions; 57 clubs report extension courses in home economics in their communities under the direction of the college; 103 report stops by railroad demonstration trains, with lectures and exhibits; 105 clubs report that one or more of their members have attended the household conferences or short schools at the college itself; 126 clubs report that they have received home-economics bulletins and publications. from the State institutions; 66 clubs have received outlines for study; and 19 clubs report that they have had correspondence courses.
