Alhambra community notes and club history vivid in city customs
In a rural Alhambra district near Grand Ave the Alhambra Woman's Club anchored community life while many members moved to the city. Mrs E E Jack helped found the club in 1918, and today the group holds bonds for a planned recreational hall beside the old Alhambra School, with a mix of long-time and former residents keeping ties through events. Also includes a house gathering at Mrs 2ee Helm home and community notices such as giveaways and a Brotherhood Week message from J Hubert Smith's law office.
