The hospital-work was only one of Mrs. Warren’s civic activities. She was always work- ing for her city. She was a wheel horse in the movement, put under way by John W. Flem- ing, one of the early mayors, to raise funds for sending representatives to Santa F6 to wangle an appropriation from the Legislature to estab- lish a Normal School in Silver City. This grew into State Teachers College. She was early a member of the Women’s Club, and secretary of the Board of Education. She was a moving spirit in the Business and Profession- al Women’s Club. She was one of the prin- cipal contributors to the building of the Episcopal church and parish house in Silver City. The silver plaque which the Grand Chapter of the O. E. S. presented to her on its 25th anniversary was symbolical of the love and respect with which she was held, not only by her fraternal group, but by the community of her choice — and the larger community that was New Mexico.
