Tula cluii! which is one of the General and State Kederation of Women's ''clubs. Is one of the oldest in 'the 'state. The club Is now 81 years old.,,. (By Mrs. Tiuiivr OMrer) In the year- 1894 a small group of & Giande women, banded themselves together for mutual improvement and sociability. Mrs. Jessie I. Cavanu, a .woman of &at experience and .intellect, be nuue the first president, of the Neighborhood club, as 1 It was called, and under- her - guidance the organization be,gai Its career founded upon firm principles. The traditions of these ear. y begin nings have been kept alive up to the present time.' Self improvement satisfied this1 group for a time but them cairn un urge to go out, to oxplore, the work being done by women, "to strive to touch and know the greut common woman's heart for us all," and so application for membership to the. iionural fed eration of Clubs was inude.' This membership ' waA granted- In-J-APS; inuklng this club one oV the first from Oregon to receive; this 'honoi. When the State Federation was organised In 1899 this club sent delegates and became a charter members. Many of Hs mem be i have served and are serving as officers of this body. Others have served In important posi tions of the General - Federation. A marked change came In the life of the club when It was per mitted the use of the commercial club rooms for a meeting place of its , regular niectingn. .The j membership was no longer lim ited and "wonan's ' uoul being ever attuned to - .needs of , the world," a desire was created tp unite forces with this ctvic or ganization for the bettu.iue.it f tho city and community. The i civic work of tho club, which has played so , great a part all through these years dates from this time. Civic Interest High.- -No club year passed . without some civic undertaking.
