Group Started 48'
Years Ago in
Capital
BY MARY PADGETT

Although the board of the
Woman's Clinic, which is one Of
the Oldest clubs in the Nations
Capital, is holding no formal
meetings during July and Au-
gust, it is, nevertheless, carefully
directing the work of the clinic
which 1t maintains at 4704 Geor.
gia Ave. N. w.
One Of its particular endeav-
ors, established recently, is the
Mothers Health Clinic, operated
every Wednesday from 10:30 to
IL noon, under the direction Of
DR.. Cecile Fusfeld. It is q birth
control clinic for women phySi-
cally in need Of such medical
treatment who are unable, by
reason Of limited means, to meet
the ordinary charge for medical
aid.
FIGHTING TYPHOID
In addition to this, the dis
pensary on Wednesday is avail.
able for mothers who wish to
have their children receive ty.
phoid and diphtheria innocula-
tionS.
DR.. Isabel Reith conducts the
general clinic for women and
children at the same hours on
Mondays and Fridays. Dr.. Lau-
retta Kress is superintendent of
all the work conducted at the
clinic.
Mrs. Edgar r. Brown, who
has been associated with the
work Of the clinic for nearly 80
years, and who has been the
resident hostess for the past
seven years, is going to be away
next week on q vacation. Mrs.
Ruth Snodgrass, secretary Of the
board, will take her place.
CLINIC OFFICERS
Mrs. Ethel T. Trott, president
Of the Women's Clinic, will con-
duct the next regular business
meeting on September II. Other
officers are Mrs. Louise Mann,
first vice president; Mrs. H. H.
Rogers, second vice president,
Mrs. Edgar T. Brown, treasurer,
and Mrs. Snodgrass.
There are about 40 women in
the group. Money to carry on
the greatly needed service Of
the clinic is raised by card par
ties, musicales, luncheons, and
other interesting affairs.
The Women's Clinic was or.
ganized 48 years ago at q time
when hospital diSpensaries were
almost unheard Of.
EARLY IN FEDERATION
This group of women preferred
to call themselves just plainly
the Woman's Clinic, which di.
rectly indicated the work they
were most interested in-spon-
soring a dispensary. It was one
of the first clubs to become q
member Of the District Fedora
ton of Women's Clubs, and it
has always supported civic inter
estS and other projects Of the
federation.
The club Of the Woman
Clinic functions as the clinic
board, and one of the early
purposes was to give the women
doctors the opportunity to serve
the public, work they could not
do otherwise in those days.
