The collection also includes Hervey's personal scrapbook of "Odds and Ends of Poetry and Sayings to be used in compiling talks"; v.5, the Constitution Centennial Celebration Number of "The Clubwoman's Journal" (1937) and a printed copy of "Open Letter to Mrs. John M. Phillips, President of the State Federation of Pennsylvania Women" by Anna Dill Gamble (1934), significant for its views on birth control. |
