Administrative history

The Arguromuthos Literary Society was a club for women formed at the Normal School in Trenton in 1894, by class of 1895. It also included female students of the Model School for several years. In the early 1930s, it became the social sorority Arguromuthos Sigma (it had no national affiliation). It disbanded some time in the 1970s.

Content and structure elements

Scope and content

This booklet most likely came from the same student as the other dance cards; this student was also a member of the Arguromathos Society and may have donated the photos from the same time period. Regardless, this dance, held at Trenton's prestigious Stacy-Trent Hotel, shows that despite the Normal School's relocation to Ewing, connections to Trenton remained for some time. As with the related items, this booklet includes spaces to write dance partners' names--in this case, the student danced with "Keith," "Don," "Fred," "George," "Armas," and "Charles." No transcription.
