The MB [My Birthday or Mutual Benefit] Club was organized on January 25, 1912, by Mrs. A. T. HANCOCK and Mrs. H. BRECKENRIDGE. Those present were Mesdames C. C. BOSWORTH, H. R. BOYD, A. S. RICHARDS, F. C. HOGUE, T. P. ASBURY, E. J. ENGLE, and H. E. TUTTLE.

The group did handiwork, and in later years visited or played games. This group was active until about a year ago [1981] when it was discontinued because so few members were left.
