Ready for Hip Sing Conference

Ready for Hip Sing Conference

The Spokane chapter of the Hip Sing Association hosted two national conferences at its headquarters in Trent Alley in 1924 and 1935. An article in the September 3, 1935 Spokesman-Review notes that the 1935 convention was smaller than the one in 1924 due to lack of funds, likely a result of the Great Depression. In the newspaper photograph, the Hip Sing building is decorated with an American flag and bunting for the convention.
