Before announcing the person to

background history of the honoree
beginning with her marriage to
the late Robert (Bob) Moulden
June II, 1902, in Sioux City, Ia.
Immediately following their mar
rage, the couple came to Mime
apolis to make their home. Here
by their useful lives they endeared
themselves to everyone.
Mrs. Moulden was active in Soc
ial, religious and fraternal activ-
tiles. She was one of the organic
ers and charter members Of Electa
Chapter No. 8 O.E.S. and served
as the chapters first treasurer and
is a past worthy matron.
Early in her life, she was active
in church in her home town and
was a member of the choir in
Sioux City. With this religious
background, it was natural for her
to become active in church in her
new home and she has been a
member of st. Peters for Sc years.
Mrs. Moulden was at one time
engaged in a record shop and
cosmetic preparations business in
partnership with the late Mrs. B.
S. Smith, and later she and her
husband opened Dreamland Cafe
on Fourth Av. s. near 38th St.,
which they operated for some 10
years.
Presenting those who had shared
her friendship, Mrs. Jessie Shepard
spoke Of her as a true friend to
mankind, living a life of rich
friendships; friend to turn to in
sorrow, or in soliciting funds for

worthwhile contribution. Her COM
