WYNNEFIELD'S WOMEN,
BARRED BY MEMS CLUB,
FORM ONE THEMSELVES
Husbands Reject Proposal for
Auxiliary and Wives Proceed to
Organize-Sixty Members
Already Enrolled
CURRENT EVENTS STUDY

wynnefeld woman are teaching their hus.
bands lesson.
The organization sentiment which is
spreading everywhere. reached wynneheld,
and, actuated by desire TO help the men
OF that suburb they decided to form n
woman's auxiliary to the wynneheld Club.
AS mere matter of formality they sent
petition to the club at its last meeting.
asking that they be permitted to form such
an auxiliary. They put It in request form,
because that was the proper thing to do, 1t
was understood.
The undreamed-of thing happened The
petition was turned down. The Wynnefield
Club refused to sanction a woman's aux
Hilary.
Within tewnty-four hours thereafter a
movement was on0oot TO start a woman's
club In Wynnefeld. There are sixty mem.
bers already there'l be MORE and they will
devote this first season Of sixteen meetings
to brushing up on current events. with Miss
Ethel Taylor MacCarthy as the lecturer.
While the women in wynnefeld are &C.
cusing the husbands en- masse they are de.
Tending them Individually
The most lucid explanation of the begin
ming of the club came from Mrs. w. s. An
derson, treasurer of the new organization.
She told 1t reluctantly. putting the blame
on the mems lack of understanding rather
than any mere stubbornness to having
women belong to something Said Mrs. An
derscn:
"The wynnefield women thought II would
be good thing for the mems club IL we
formed an auxiliary. We thought we could
help a whole lot on the house committee and
such work, and advanced our idea in all
unselfshness. 1t was for the sake of the
men purely.
From the reports we heard of the meet
ing at which our proposal was rejected II
wasn't a representative meeting at all.
Many of the men who would have seen to
II that the woman's auxiliary would have
ing. don't want TO be put in the light of
saying that any of the Wynnefeld club
members are not all right, but mean that
the meeting was not a representative one.
You know that one or two old fogies can
often influence the younger men, who
naturaly would take up progressive idea.
Anyhow. when the proposition was
tLrned down, some of us Immediately got
together and decided to have n club. We
thought a currents events class would be
the best thing TO start with, and by next
year we will be we'll enough organized TO
take up all the functions of woman's
club"
Miss MacCarthy is a graduate Of Swarth-
more, and has done graduate work at the
University of Pennsylvania She has lee
tured before several Philadelphia organiza-
tions, including the Alumnae Club of the
High School for Girls.

moving spirits in the club is Mrs. Albert
