In Boston Mass. (USA) published the first issue of the magazine “Idealisti” (“The Idealist”) (1926-1927), a social, political, cultural and literary magazine. It was an organ of a group within the Federation “Vatra” (“Hearth”), which tried to give life to the new association “The idealist”. As presented in the program article of the first issue, “Idealist” tried to make an independent national, social and cultural policy. It reflected the life and problems that worried the Albanian community in the United States of America, especially in Boston. From number 13 (November 11th, 1926) it came out as an organ of the Albanian Federation “Bijtë e Shqipërisë” (“Sons of Albania”). (In the photo: Logo of the “Vatra” Federation)
