WISCONSIN FEDERATION
OF CIVIC CLUBS

The attention of citizens of tt state
is called to the fact that there has
been organized by dozen or more
civic clubs, the Wisconsin Federation
of Civic Clubs which aims to extend
throughout the length and breadth of
the commonwealth the civic club move
ment already SO strong in Milwaukee
and in several other cities. There is
no city, no village, no rural commun-
ity, that would not derive great deal
of benefit by organizing associations
to maintain an open forum for the dis
cussion of the community needs and
the vital questions of the day.
The constitution of the Federation
states: "Its objects shall be the dis
cussion of local, municipal, state or
national questions, the awakening of
civic consciousness and the making of
intelligent public opinion. 1t shall be
bipartisan and non-sectarian. Each
club applying for membership shall be
non-partisan and maintain free and
open forum for the discussion of local,
municipal, state or national questions.
During the coming decade, Wiscon-
sin seems destined to lead in the dis
cussion of social, economic and political
questions 1t is important that these
questions be taken up singly and sub
jected to analysis and discussion by the
ablest men and by thousands of citizens
enrolled in civic clubs 5000 men in
100 clubs throughout the State will be
potent influence in making intelligent
public opinion on each important pub
lie question.
The State Federation will be Of direct
aid to local clubs 1t will ask the pub
lie men of the State when and where
they can address civic clubs. Very
often, owing to their business or pro-
fessional visits to different cities, the
local club can secure valuable ad-
dress at little or no cost. The State
Federation will furnish d list of speak
