Then forward" our watchword cry!
Knock-and the drones knock with
you,
Boost-and they say, whats the
good?'
For It's easier work to sheer and
shirk
Than to hustle and help saw wood.
Sleep when you can't find something
That ought to be done To-day,
To make this town of such renown
That the world will look your way"
Then shout for the greater Wausau,
But push while the shouting is done,
For the town won't grow on wind,
you know,
By work is the vict'ry won.

BUSINESS CLUB
MAKES PROGRESS
HAS MEMBERSHIP OF 500 IN
Z MONTHS; MAINTAINS
LARGE CLUBROOMS

Miss Elizabeth Sears, national field
organizer of the Federated Business
and Professional Women's club, visit
ed Wausau just three months after
the Wausau Business and Profession
al Women'S club was organized, and
at that time she said: THE Wausau
club is the finest club, and has the
incest clubhouse of any in the coun-
try, with the exception of the organi-
cation in Boston,
The Wausau Business and Profess
sional Women's club was organized in
April 1920, and at present has nearly
500 active members and Is founder
members. Shortly after the Organiza-
ton was perfected, a clubhouse was
procured and beautifully furnished
and decorated The clubhouse is large
with long drawing room, reception
room, office, reading room and kitchen
on the first floor, ballroom, sewing
studio, matron's room and bathroom
on the second floor and billiard and
poOlroom and bedrooms on the third
floor. Since the clubhouse was fur
nished, money has been raised to put
the club entirely out of debt. AT
present the club has an option on the
property for $4,000 and is forming
a holding company to purchase it, the
club itself taking one-half the stock.
Educational Glasses
Among the various activities which
the club enjoys are classes in citizen
ship and intelligent voting, two class
es in dresscraft, dancing club, study
groups, billiard groups and the presi-
dent of the State Federation of Music
al clubs, Mrs. l.. A. Pradt, Wausau,
assisted by Mrs. Coates, is organizing
a group for the study of music.
One particularly popular use of the
club, which fills a real need in Wau
sau, is the privilege of giving private
parties at the clubhouse. Dinner
dances, card parties, showers, teas
and many other functions are given
by the girls, who are free to use the
clubrOoms as they would use their
homes.
Live Wire Club
Although the club is very young, its
activities and progress have marked
il as a live wire club which not only
fills need for the business women
in the city, but which opens its doors
to all visiting women, and offers true
hospitality to them. The district Ro-
tary convention was held in April, and
the women were entertained at the
Business Women's club; the recent
state convention of nurses enjoyed
the clubhouse for recreation and
meetings, as did the Central Wiscon-
sin Teachers association and other
gatherings of women.
The club was promoted with the
purpose of making life more pleasant
for the business women and the girls
who work, but the scope of its field
has been gradually brOadened until
it has already come to have a very
material place among the organiza-
tons which are pushing the city for
ward educationally, morally and SOC
ially.-Milwaukee Journal.
