In 1900 Wurde approached Mr. Herring us to the formation of a club for middle-class ladies. Six houses in Stanley-gardens, Notting bill, were taken for the cab, which was opened in THE USION OF LONDON AND SMITH'S BANK, 1902 under the uae of the Twentieth Century Chat, Limited. Wards was appointed honorary secretary of the club refusing to accept a salary In January. 1903, ke was presented with an honorarium of 4, which he arcopted under protest. In Jaunary, 1980s, it was discovered that a sum of £990 advanced by Mr. Harring to the club had been misappropriated by the prisoner, who at this time was acting as private secretary to Me Herting at a salary of £20 per annum. He was a once dismissed from this portion, but after seven communications and explanations he was retained in his position" as ben. secretary of the club.
