- The Arbeiter Unterstutzung Verein (Worker Support Club) Hall located at 608 North Grand Avenue. The society was organized in 1875 and built its first hall in 1882; at one time it had over 500 members. The building in this photograph was dedicated in 1905. The gardens in back were the location for many social events. The society was closed out in 1931 due to lack of younger membership, at the time the last of the viable Michigan Arbeiter societies. It was an insurance organization that provided illness and death benefits, mainly for members of Lansing's German-American community, and also a social organization.

- Description:
- From an undated essay found in the collection: "The Unity Club was founded October 15, 1895, by Mrs. N. B. Jones, Mrs. C. D. Dodge, and Mrs. Lillian Rork, with a membership of twelve. The first five meetings were held at the homes of the members. Dec. 19th '95 the club met at the Pilgrim Chapel on Larch Street. The membership had increased to thirty-four. The club motto is 'Be a candle in the window if you cannot be a star in the sky.'" The ame was changed in 1942 to "Unity Literary Club." And "It was first a library club. Gradually it took on civic work and charity work until at the present time it has delegates to the Club House Association Board, delegates to Ingham County Home Association, and a Visiting Nurses Association committee. The membership is now limited to seventy-five." The club was broken up into four divisions and meeting organization rotated among them. Each meeting usually involved presentation of an essay or two, a book review, news and current events, and a discussion. Topics ranged from global politics to housekeeping and family life. This collection consists of a mostly disassembled Memory Book that was likely kept by founder Mrs. Charles D. Dodge (Arta Ruhammah Jane Snyder Dodge, July 24, 1852 - January 29, 1946). The material dates from the club's beginning into the mid 1940s. Included are the club's annual handbooks, correspondence, newspaper clippings, programs and ephemera from club events, some handwritten and typed essays, photographs, and a file of correspondence from a French girl, Alice Labat, to an unnamed "Benefactress" during 1918-1920.

- Records of the Lansing Camera Club. From a 50th anniversary club history in the collection: "The Lansing Camera Club was organized in 1926 and has had a distinguished history for 50 years. At the start, print makers were admitted to membership on presentation of an acceptable print. A Women's Camera Club, organized in 1932, disbanded when most of its members joined the Men's Camera Club in 1939. Meetings were held at first in the Downey Hotel. By 1942 they were meeting over Linn's Camera Shop. They were meeting at the Hayford Fire Station in 1952 when colored slides were first introduced into the competitions. When Scott Center was opened for meetings, this Club was one of its first tenants, and it has been our home since. Competition was always keen and since earliest days, members have entered salons all over the country and received many honors. Lansing Camera Club became a charter member of both the Photographic Society of America and of the Southwestern Michigan Council of Camera Clubs. The Club is one of only several clubs still holding the distinction of being a charter member of the Photographic Society of America...."
