THE S. L. A. CLUB

The S. L. A. club is the outgrowth of an informal organization f 1894, when a
circle of six ladies met every Tuesday for the purpose of reading and
studying Shakespeare.  The club was formally organized in 1896, since when it
has flourished in a quiet unassuming manner, working always for a broader
culture of its women.  The S. L. A.'s have studied English literature, delved
into the history of their own as well as many of the foreign countries.  The
social element figures delightfully in this club's work for its members are
most congenial.  Many novel social gatherings are held each season at which
the husbands are guests (for all the S. L. A.'s are married) and the husbands
always reciprocate by entertaining the club ladies, usually at banquets.
