      "That is the whole item. It is filed because of one word. A party is an event; a regular monthly luncheon is an institution, with a calendar and an expectation that readers already know about it. Whatever the formal position of the club's women in 1920 — and the archive has the paper calling them lady-members in March and the wives of members in December — by November they had a standing monthly fixture at the clubhouse.",
      "The paper also sets “the Ladies of the Emblem Club” in capitals here, as a name rather than a description. That is worth noticing and not worth leaning on: capitalisation in the Bulletin's social column of this period is not consistent enough to carry an argument."
