A Civic Laboratory,

No man would have dreamed of
studying the uses or effects of votes
in behalf of social betterment as have
the women of Chicago. Men see in
the vote its commercial possibilities;
women it's social. Both viewpoints
are vital The Chicago Woman's
Club proposes to build civic labora-
tory. This will be a place where
worthy projects are to be tried out,
until their worth is sufficiently recog-
nized to be taken over by the city.
This new club home, the largest Of its
kind in the United States, will play
part similar to that played by the So
cial settlement where such subjects as
Misunderstanding, sewing, cooking and
gardening have been taught with sue
cess and then adopted by the public
schools as a permanent part of the
curriculum. It is not so many years
since the name "civic laboratory"
could not have been applied. to set
tlement house, for settlement houses,
as such, did not exist; neither could
the term have been used as synonym
for a woman's club, for the manage
ment of civic laboratory was consid-
cred quite outside woman's sphere.
