Charter Presentation to the Mendota Woman's Club
| Officers of the Wisconsin Federation of Women's Clubs inspect the charter that was presented to the Mendota Woman's Club by the General Federation of Women's Clubs.

The state officers pictured are: seated (left to right): Mrs. Kenneth Reed, Kenosha, and Mildred Horne, Madison, who is state president. Standing (l to r) are Mrs. Walter Karow, Sheboygan, and Mrs. S.V. Abramson, Milwaukee. |
