Following was an article also below obits section in the 1912 Post. What is a lid club, obviously it is a bar, but why was it called a lid club??? The only thing that comes to mind, is did this have to do with prohabition etc? 'Abe R. Thompson, a street-car conductor, filed suit for divorce from Anna Thompson Thursday, alleging the she frequented lid clubs with other men. Thompson charged that his wife left her 5 months old baby at home without care, while she visited the lid clubs, and drank to excess. Mrs. Thompson, now living with her mother at 1114 Park Avenue, was promised forgiveness for her conduct in the past if she would give up the lid clubs and return to her husband, the petition states. She refused. The couple married June 22 1909 and separated Aug 30 1911' Pat
