Woman’s clubs and freedom of action in public life
A Cheyenne column discusses Grover Cleveland’s critique of women’s clubs and May Wright Sewall’s reply. It argues clubs enrich home life and public work, citing General Federation of Women’s Clubs data on household economies and varied fields from art to municipal government. It endorses women’s cultural growth through freedom of choice and action, then notes local park improvements and social visits by Bon and Dinneen families after trips to California and Portland.
