Originally called "The Utilian," it became commonly known as "The Antediluvian" after 1900. In the early days the members collected garments and remade used clothes for direct distribution; after 1920 they began to contribute clothing and money to organized charities, especially to the Visiting Nurse Society of Philadelphia.
