Dear Alice and listers, Thank you for giving us that glimpse of your husband's grandmother. She sounds like she was a wonderful woman. I was hoping, by posting this, some of our venerated elders on the list might be able to give us some idea of what the organization was. We may still have a few folks around who were children in this time period, although they may not be on the web. If possible, maybe those of you local to the area, might make some inquiries of the senior citizens centers in the Higbee or Moberly area, and see if you can find an answer for us? I'm wondering if it might be some kind of ladies auxiliary for the Knights of Pythias? Kathy
