100 Years of Memories: Woman’s Club of Stuart

On 14 October 1913, 29 women met to form a Club. A year later, the town of Stuart was established and they became the Woman’s Club of Stuart. They met on Wednesday because on Monday they washed, Tuesday they ironed, and Wednesday was the first day they had nothing to do.
