AYE VOTES enough
FOR MISS WILSON
PRESIDENTS DAUGHTER QUAIL.
FIEs AS STEAM ROLLER PILOT
AT MADISON.

Madison, Wis, June 25.-Miss Marg-
aret Wilson demonstrated before the
Conference of Social Centers and Civic
Secretaries that she has "the punch"
and is not afraid to wipe out proceed
ents, even such long established rules
as Roberts rules OF parliamentary
procedure.
1t is whispered that her conduct of
the closing session of the conference
from the floor closely resembles the
we'll known activities of the steam
roller. Anyhow, she won her point,
and her only symptom of regret was
her whispered comment, ITS awful
but we had to pass that resolution,
as she sat down.
Takes Chairman's Cue.
The conference had been discussing
means to change the Wisconsin iaN
to allow the naming of civic secretarie:
| for social centers, and now to bes
promote such a change in the law.
Miss Wilson's idea was that a reso
luton calling the attention of thu
public to the need of a change would
be sufficient. She made the motion
it was seconded, and then c. P. Cary
the state superintendent Of schools
presiding over the conference, hest
tated.
Miss Wilson quickly decided to take
the throttle.
SIS everybody in favor of the reso
lution?" she asked without waiting fol
discussion, and after hearing the
shouts of ayes, declared "The motor
is carried"
Didn't Call For mays"
She didn't even call for the nays
but won her point and the unparlia
mentary procedure was by commo,
consent overlooked.
81 loathe the idea of working for pee
pie. like to work with people" Mis-
Wilson said during one of her addres
ses. 81 do not agree with the ma
who says we must educate the people
1t sounds too patronizing. We, tn
people, must educate ourselves. Hoy
are we going to do it? Why. by goin
