Excerpt from Women's City Club Magazine, Vol. 10: February, 1936 It is possible, Of course, to interpret pictographs as records of events, but the question arises whether simple happenings of the chase are important enough to justify the very considerable labor of painting, incising, or pecking animal pictures on hard boulders or high up on the face of cliffs. I think it more likely that these quaint representations of the hunt were widely regarded as prayers or even as coercive formulas for abundant supplies of game.

Excerpt from Women's City Club Magazine, Vol. 6: February 1, 1932 So say the directors, past and present, who assembled at a luncheon January 12, at the City Club, in honor of the retiring members of the Board and to welcome four new members elected only the day before. It was unique in more ways than that, say those who were privileged to be present. The extraordinary feature, they believe, is the fact that each guest looked back upon her term of office with pride and pleasure and that each still holds with complete confidence the vision she held in the formative years of the Club. Any reminiscence, howsoever pleasant, is tinged with a certain wistfulness. And so there was that also about the gathering. Memories obtruded as incidents were recalled, reminding that time and change are, after all, lords of life. But the present and the future soon took hold and turned the meeting into a session as earnest and forward, looking as any held thirteen, twelve or five years ago. The consciousness of the reunion pivoted upon the fact that the City Club has never receded from the ideals of its founders and that each past director looked back upon her term of service as a period Of fulfillment.

Excerpt from Woman's City Club Bulletin, Vol. 10: May, 1921 While the members of the Club may justly feel much satisfaction in looking back over our past history, this is not a 'club to measure itself by what is past. Two questions confront us: Is the Club discharging adequately the responsibility it has undertaken to become the channel through which the women of Chicago and Cook County may aggressively work for good local government? And the other question is, What are the tasks of tomorrow? In answer to the first question, my contact with the members and directors of the Club has made me feel that the Club as a whole realizes that its own members and the women of this community have not yet taken a sufficiently vital hold on the governments that belong to us. We realize that, important as is the ballot as an instrument of political expression, that even more important is the education of the electorate on the questions that come before it and on the administration that succeeds election day. Thousands of women in Chicago today are not registered and voting, and thousands more are depending -for their education as citizens on the casual information which comes to them without effort of their own. This constitutes a challenge to the Woman's City Club and all other organizations concerned with our civic life. An informed and aroused electorate is the foundation stone of successful democracy. We have a membership of nearly and we reach several hundreds or even thousands more, but there are probably women eligible to vote in Chicago. Our task is just begun.

Excerpt from Women's City Club Magazine, Vol. 12: February, 1938 Many of the papers and letters of Sir joseph Banks form another of the manu script collections. Sir joseph Banks was president of the Royal Society for many years. He sailed with Captain Cook on his first voyage around the world. Al most every voyage oi exploration set ting out from England in the last half of the eighteenth century was outfitted by him or he had a scientist aboard. He was responsible for the voyage of the Bounty. He was interested in many phases of English life - coinage, wool and sheep, insects, drainage, antiqui ties, everything. Two copies of the first folio edition of Shakespeare's works are in the library and one copy of each of the second, third and fourth folio editions. Old Eng lish documents - indentures, tax - lists and wills - dating from Shakespeare's time and earlier, form an interesting back ground here. Other early English drama fists are represented, too, like Shirley and Dekker and Ben jonson, with single plays of early edition or in early col lections of plays.

Excerpt from Women's City Club Magazine, Vol. 2: February, 1928-January, 1929 Under the influence of the Com munity Chest - and under no other influence in our midst - every variety of class consciousness, every sectarian difference, every shade of economic theory, is forgotten. It lifts all of us together to a height where pettiness may not intrude, where prejudice is ignored, and where selfishness is ashamed to appear. That height is higher than our highest hill. It has been worth the climbing. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
