This was the only Class IV Chapter House built. Each Chapter House featured the League emblem, a wreath of acanthus leaves surrounding the letters A.W. L., and the name, on the front of the Chapter House, so the building would be easily recognized by members visiting from other towns. The emblem used on the front of Class IV and Class V houses was more elaborate than those on the smaller houses. Chapter officers were: President, Mrs. E. A. Dean; Vice President, Mrs. Annie E. Clark; Treasurer, Mrs. William Kaar; and Secretary, Miss Florence Walters. There were 195 Chapter members. | | Source | Photograph, mounted on scrapbook paper, 9.58" by 6.74" | | Subject | Princeton (Ill.) | | Subject | American Woman's League--Chapter Houses | | Subject.Keyword | Arts and crafts movement | | Title | American Woman's League Chapter House at Princeton, Illinois |
