Corona Club
Mrs. Cecil WIRT MARK, President

Organized 1898
Federate 1916
Meets second and fourth Thursdays

Corona Club was organized twenty-two years ago, with a limited number of 200. This continued until last September, when our district and state presidents recommended that all clubs work for a larger membership. The limitation was accordingly removed, and by instituting a membership
campaign we have added sixty-two to our number.

The war work consumed most of the time that our members had to devote to activities outside of the home in 1918 and 1919; our club holding three Red Cross meetings each week. The regular club work lay somewhat dormant until this year, 1919-1920, when there was great activity noted in all
lines.

We assumed the support of a Servian Baby for one year at seventy-two dollars.

In April last we sponsored a theater party for the near East relief from which we realized over $200.

The sections have been busy; the civic working to make this great city a better place in which to live.

The social service section concentrating their efforts on the open air school in the mission, feeding, clothing and doing whatever their hands found to do to make life happier for those who through necessity were compelled to go there.

The other sections - Book Review, Child Welfare, Dramatic, and Household Economics - have all been working enthusiastically, accomplishing much, and we are all looking upward and onward to greater things.
