Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of the General Federation of Women's Clubs: For the First Twenty-Two Years of Its Organization The General Federation has passed its majority. For an organization with such genuine conservative action through a score of years, it is time we should look into the past, and present to those who follow its origin, the trend of life, the place the women of America hold among the women of the world, and the credit we wish to give to the men of our generation and of our country for most helpful cooperation. There has been constant constructive philosophy, literary, educational, civic, and altruistic, with no distinct period of demarcation, rather each working into and bringing out the most ideal and practical features of the other. Each administration has been in a sense personal, because the policy has been trusted to the presiding officer, but each has been wisely led, no fads or fancies allowed to creep in, and no exploiting of the organization for personal ends. When, upon order of the Convention at Cincinnati, the Committee was appointed to consider the history and bring recommendations to the Board of Directors, the names of those you will note in the book seemed peculiarly appropriate, from tried devotion, historical knowledge, and literary ability. This committee at large, without the knowledge of the one member upon whose brain and hands should fall the burden, recommended the editor, and this recommendation was unanimously adopted by the Board. We need hardly say to our readers that under such an editor the book offers historical accuracy in retrospect and action, keen insight into causes preceding this great union of force, as well as into the future possibility of well-directed effort, and a literary fascination that holds even the uninitiated. As a book of reference, it should be hi every library and upon every club table. Whatever comes to woman - work with the duties of citizenship or without - we should be ready with knowledge, judgment, and poise for conservative and progressive action.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The History of the Woman's Club Movement in America (Volume 1) By Mrs. J.C. Croly The need and the value of this history are to be found in the natural character of the woman's club development, as the outgrowth of national conditions, and the cumulative evidence of the woman's ideals and strongest tendencies. The priceless boon that America gave to women was freedom and opportunity. Up to the last half, it might be said quarter, of the present century," small provision had been made for the education and training of the woman beyond the rudimentary lines. As late as the early seventies no college training was possible to a girl in New York city and many other parts of this country, except under precisely the same conditions as those which existed in Russia; viz., by the special grace of some professor endowed with the human spirit, such as Professor Newberry of Columbia in New York or Dr, Gruber of St, Petersburg. The club, from the beginning, accomplished two purposes. It provided a means for the acquisition of knowledge, the training of power; and the working of a spirit of human solidarity, a comprehension of the continuity of life: its universal character and interdependence. It is not too much to say that this aspect changed the whole point of view of the woman who came under its influence. Her ideals were elevated, her trust in eternal goodness and its purpose strengthened, and her own possibilities as a social and intellectual force, brought out and gradually moulded into form. The acceptance of the club as a means of education and development was almost simultaneous throughout the country. Everywhere groups of women were found who eagerly seized the idea and shaped it according to their own conditions and needs. Everywhere also the path has broadened, and larger groups of women have and are working with the same eager enthusiasm toward the still larger life, the greater unity, the "all in all."
