The Civic League is the most recently organized
department OF the Womans Institute. II would
be indeed singular If the prevailing interest among
women in the subject of municipal reform ana
civic affairs should not have extended to fonkers,
and the interest which already exists needs only
a cause upon which to focus in order to make It's
power felt. To utilize this energy and give IT the
pilrposes OF thus uniting for active work and the
civic League proposes to strive not only 10 pro-
mote an interest in civic affairs by means OF ect-
ures classes and special Libraries. but Will en-
deavor. by actual cooperation with the city au-
thorities and other societies. to promote hgher
public spirit and better social order branch II
brary OF the Institute has been opened at NO. $50

ing people in that neighborhoOd. The branch Is
free TO all women over fourteen years of age, and
