THE LADIES' AUXILIARY OF CENTRAL COLLEGE

At the Commencement gathering of 1904, the Ladies Auxiliary of Central
College was organized in response to a need, and its work each year has
been to meet the most pressing demand of that special time. The relation
of this organization to the college is that of the Ladies' Aid to the
church.

Mrs. Harriet Keables was the first President, who seemed tireless in her
efforts to make the society a real aid to the school.

Since the change in administration from the Baptist to the Reformed
Church of America, four years ago, the Auxiliary has grown in numbers
and in opportunity for service. The collection of dues (50 cents a year
per member), added to the money derived from serving banquets, running
exchanges and special gifts from friends, represents an expenditure of
almost $3,000.

If a hall of fame is ever erected in Pella, a place of honor should be
reserved for the ladies, who as members of the above organization, have
done so much for Central College.

When it first became known that the General Synod of the Reformed Church
of America, had decided on Pella as the place of meeting in June, 1922,
many of our citizens feared that we were undertaking something that was
beyond our power to bring to a successful conclusion.

The pessimism was especially noticeable whenever the question of
providing meals for over three hundred notable visitors was considered.
Many prophecies of dire failure were made; but these did not take into
consideration the militant members of the Ladies' Auxiliary, an
organization that has a happy faculty of rising equal to any occasion
that can be met by industry, tact and team work. The Synod came, saw,
and was conquered, by the splendid manner in which their material
comfort was looked after. That the delegates left after a week spent in
Pella, unanimously singing praises for the royal entertainment afforded
them, was due in a large measure to the efficient work of the Ladies'
Auxiliary.

As an indication of what this organization is doing for "Central," we
give a brief summary of the more important things accomplished in the
last two years.

help solicited by its members.
