Carpenter, Secretary; Mrs. C. W. Thyng, Vice-President; Mrs. Agnes M. Cornwell, President; Mrs. C. R. Forshner, Treasurer IN the Summer of 1909 was organized the Ladies' Auxiliary of the Fellsway Driving Club, and in numerous wayy did it prove of vast importance in the advancement of the Fellsway Club. Al- most from the start the ladies added to the ma- terial benefit of the club by holding social functions, the revenue derived being used in securing comforts and articles of necessity re- quired by the driving club. The large flag that floats from the flag-pole at Combination Park on race days was made by the Ladies' Auxiliary, while the present clubroom in Franklin Street was almost en- tirely the result of the auxiliary's work. In raising the funds . the auxiliary held dances, whist parties, luncheons and many odd little gatherings that would bring in the nifty penny. It has always been active, at the pres- ent time (1914) holding weekly meetings on Wednesday afternoons, in the Fellsway clubroom. The first list of officers of the aux- iliary was as follows : President, Mrs. J. W. Litchfield; vice- president, Mrs. J. S. McRae; treasurer, Mrs. F. S. McKown; secretary, Mrs. Frank E. Mor- rison. The officials for 1914 were: President, Mrs. Agnes M. Cornwell; vice-president, Mrs. C. W. Thyng; treasurer, Mrs. C. R. Forshner; secretary, Mrs. A. J. Carpenter.
