The Mahwah Woman’s Club held a card and swimming party at the home of Mrs. Walter Cory on Valley Road for the benefit of the benevolent fund. Everyone was urged to attend even if they did not play bridge or swim. The invitation urged them to “bring their sewing and join in on the general good time.” The proceeds of the fund was annually divided equally among the Library, Girl Scouts, and the welfare committee.
