The ladies' auxiliary of the club

Two months after it was formed, the paper gives the women's organisation its name.

That is the whole item, and the whole reason for filing it is the word auxiliary. In June 1920 twenty-five women whose husbands were members had formed an informal organization at the clubhouse "merely for convenience in planning affairs of a social nature". This is the Bulletin, nine weeks later, naming what they formed.

It also shows how quickly the thing settled into a routine. The June notice planned regular monthly luncheons; by August the paper is reporting a regular semi-monthly meeting, and over the next eighteen months it would record a regular one o'clock luncheon, a regular business luncheon, a regular social meeting and a regular bridge party. Whatever its standing, the auxiliary kept a fuller calendar than most of what the archive holds about the club itself.
