EDITORS COMMENTS
This elegant invitation card announces the lecture programme for the Inner Wheel Club of Tunbridge Wells, Kent, UK, for the years 1938 and 1939. The Inner Wheel Club is an international women's organization whose members are the wives or partners of Rotary Club members. The club's name derives from the inner wheel that forms part of the Rotary emblem. The card features an attractive design with the club's logo at the top, surrounded by a border of ivy leaves and berries. The programme for the upcoming year is listed below, with each month represented by a different flower. The speakers for each month are named, including notable figures such as Mount Ephraim, Alcock, Scripps, Berry, Weekes, and Goldthorpe. The political climate of the late 1930s is reflected in the programme, with several speakers addressing issues related to the Spanish Civil War. For instance, in March 1938, "Mrs. Mount Ephraim" was scheduled to speak on "The Spanish Situation," and in October 1938, "Mr. Alcock" was to discuss "The Spanish War and its Implications." Other speakers covered a range of topics, from "Cookery Demonstrations" by "Mrs. Scripps" and "Mrs. Berry" to "A Cafe in Spain" by "Mrs. Weekes." The card's reverse side includes the club's address and contact information. This invitation card offers a fascinating glimpse into the social and political landscape of the 1930s in Tunbridge Wells, Kent, and the UK more broadly. It serves as a reminder of the role that women's organizations played in shaping public discourse and engaging with pressing issues of the day.
