The
Commons Club, Fargo's oldest service club, was founded by Walter L. Stockwell
and professor Arland Weeks so people could discuss current events.
The club met the first and third Monday of the school term at 6 o'clock
for dinner and then a guest speaker and discussion on a topic of interest.
Exclusively a male club, membership reached a peak of 50..
The
collection consists of correspondence, meeting minutes (1910-1961) and
subject files to include club histories, membership rolls and materials
from various programs..
