Thompson and Jennings were the hostesses. The visitors, apart from members of the club, represented the Comforts Fund, the Women's Auxiliary and the Methodist War Workers. During the afternoon Lady Wilson gave an interesting address on the various branches of war work, especially Red Cross activities.
