DEPARTMENTS OF STATE GOVERNMENT

WISCONSIN BLUE BOOK.
GRAND ARMY OF THE REPUBLIC.
The objects of this order are (1) to keep green the memory of the events and associations of the Civil War; (2) to aid unfortunate com- rades, and (3) to keep alive and active the spirit of patriotism. The first post was organized April 6, 1866, at Decatur, Ill. The first National Encampment was held November 20, 1866, at Indianapolis.
THE WISCONSIN DEPARTMENT.
The Department of Wisconsin was organized June 7, 1866, and the first Wisconsin post was chartered at Madison, June 10, 1866. This post, now known as Lucius Fairchild, No. 11, is still active and has 135 members. Post No. 4, of Berlin, was chartered Sept. 8, 1866, and has maintained ever since an unbroken organization. It is said to be the oldest Post in ex- istence with an unbroken record.
General James K. Proudfit was the leading spirit in the organization of the Grand Army of the Republic in Wisconsin and became the first de- partment commander. The following is the list of all department com- manders up to the present.

t Elected commander-in-chief.
The department reached its largest membership in 1889, when it was 13,944. Dec. 31, 1916, there were 196 posts, with 4,298 members.
The legislature of 1901 established in the Capitol a Grand Army Me- morial Hall for the preservation of relics, and books commemorative of the war, pictures of war scenes, and portraits of men and women who did good service for our country. In the Capitol fire of February 27, 1904, this hall with all it contained was destroyed. After shifting about from place to place in the intervening years, the hall, with Grand Army Headquarters for Wisconsin, is now permanently settled in four rooms on the fourth floor of the north wing of the Capitol. It is the finest department headquarters in the United States, and is equipped and maintained by the state. Wisconsin is generous in her attitude toward her old soldiers. The library there contains about 1,400 books, 300 pamphlets and 350 pictures, and many war relics. Hosea W. Rood, Com- pany E 12th Wisconsin infantry, is the custodian.
At the last department encampment, held at Ashland, June 18-19, 1918, the following named officers were chosen: Commander, George D. Breed, Chilton; Assistant Adjutant General and Quartermaster, W. J. McKay,
