Excerpt from Women's City Club Magazine, Vol. 6: February 1, 1932So say the directors, past and present, who assembled at a luncheon January 12, at the City Club, in honor of the retiring members of the Board and to welcome four new members elected only the day before.It was unique in more ways than that, say those who were privileged to be present. The extraordinary feature, they believe, is the fact that each guest looked back upon her term of office with pride and pleasure and that each still holds with complete confidence the vision she held in the formative years of the Club.Any reminiscence, howsoever pleasant, is tinged with a certain wistfulness. And so there was that also about the gathering. Memories obtruded as incidents were recalled, reminding that time and change are, after all, lords of life.But the present and the future soon took hold and turned the meeting into a session as earnest and forward, looking as any held thirteen, twelve or five years ago.The consciousness of the reunion pivoted upon the fact that the City Club has never receded from the ideals of its founders and that each past director looked back upon her term of service as a period Of fulfillment.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
