Description
1929-Serv-Us League Center
"'Serv Us' In New Quarters; League Needs," Ithaca Journal, August 13, 1929, 7.
"The Serv-Us League held its first meeting at its new home last night and plans were perfected to the opening of a colored community house. Members are making an earnest appeal to all who have any house furnishings such as chairs, bookcases, books, in fact, anything that goes to make a house, to send them to 221 South Plain Street this week that they may open very soon. If there is anything that can be sent for Mrs. Irvin (dial 6638) Mr. Hammond (9236) Mrs. Cooper (31483) may be notified and they will see to it that it is attended to."
