Ground was broken this month
in Washington, C, for th erec
tion of a model hotel for business
women under the supervision of the
Y. W. C. A. housing committee of
which Mrs. John D. Rockefeller, jr..
is chairman. The economic depart
ment of the Y. W. C. A. has thor
oughly studied the question of suit
able homes for employed women
and has issued architectural plans
for hotels, community houses, resi
dences for girls, model small suites
for womSh and other plans made
with an eye chiefly for the con
veniences and attractive features
that .women and girls like and need.
The hotel in Washington is pat
terned on one of these plans. It
will house 325 women and will re
quire a staff of 75 assistants. The
majority of these will be women,
down to the bellboys. The bed
rooms are of reasonable dimension
and will have plenty of light and
air.
There are 12 floors. The first will
contain the offices, reception rooms,
lounge, library, and a large audi
torium for banquets, balls, concerts,
or lectures. The basement contains
many innovations, among them a
community sewing room, fitted with
sewing machines and other neces
sary equipment. There will be com
munity laundry and valeting- rooms.
In this way women may still exer
cise the housekeeping instinct with-
fVsout interference with ordinary hotel
rules and may have tne privileges
of sewing, laundering or mending.
To foster this domestic instinct
there will be kitchenettes on some of
the upper floors.
, Also on the upper floors are re
ceptions rooms fo(r the guests and
v their friends, and the bedrooms,
, which are especially planned for the
. comfort of women. The dining
rooms, smaller ones for private en
tertainment, and a lunch counter for
the tonvenience of the guest who
may desire a hasty meal.
In all tfce hotels to be built by
the Y. W. C. A. more stress will be
laid upon Hie proper housing and
the care of guests than upon elabor
ate entrances and decoration. There
will be a roof garden for the sum
mer afternoon and evening comfort
of the guests, which wrtl be managed
exactly as oth?r roof gardens, with
music, dancing and good dinners.
The cost of living in the hotel will
run from $25 to $iQ a month for the
rooms.- This prjee will include all
service, light and ,Ii lien and the
privileges of the community .rooms
in the basement and the kitchenette
on each floor.
Within 10 year it is believed that
there will be a string of these hotels
extending across the continent and
the business and professional woman
may take her choice, according to
her temperament, the nature of her
work, or her domestic instinct, of
livin? in a hotel or of rrpatinc her
own home atmosphere in her apart-

Club Luncheon
American Women Realize
JThat They Must Study
National Politics.
More than 2,000,000 women in
the United States belong to the
General Federation of Women's
Zlubs.
It is safe to say that half as
nany members are being awakened
to the necessity of studying politics.
Will II. Hays, chairman of the
epublican national committee, pre
dicts that 14,000.000 women will
:ast their ballots for president at the
aext election.
Women who have been prejudiced
tgainst their sex in politics, but who
have preferred to work for the up
lifting principles of humanity
through indirect channels, will from
iiacessity need to join in political
nghts if their interests are deeply
rooted. They can no longer expect
to get representation through the
men of their families, for the men
will no longer assume the responsibility.

Miss Norma Wass and . Miss
Grace Vodicka will dance a pic

at the annual demonstration of the
physical education department of
the Y. W. C. A., which will be
given Tuesday evening, 8:15 o'clock,
in the city Auditorium. They will
also dance Pavlowa's beautiful
"Gavotte Directoire," in colonial
costume.
An interesting program has been
arranged by Miss Galena Stowell,
director of physical education, and
her assistant, Miss Lucy Giddings.
The first number, an' entrance
march, will include over 800 wom

New bedspreads for the sleeping
room arc hand embroidered on
sheer lawn in exquisite " fashion.
They coins' long enough to cover
the bed pillows, too. -Considering
they are such dainty handwork they
are not extremely expensive. For
the sleeping porch, and useful also
for the camping trip are especially
designed navy blue bedspreads.
These are as cheap as the ordinary
crocheted bedspread. Satin and col
ored ones come in such colors as
canary and pink and one delft blue
one had a, raised pattern in white
and a white fringe. Most of . these
measure 80 by 90 inches and are
of good heavy weight. -The satin
ones arc most frequently scalloped.
For bureau scarfs the most popu
lar cover used on teither cream, red
or brown mahogany seems to be
the linen and lace affair. Some
times the lace is home crocheted
and often it is an edging of the fa

ferent widths and at different prices.
Then of course flowered cretonne to
match color schemes is good. On

with grace, understanding and un

swept unthinkingly upon an extra
ordinary destiny.

No, not yours. You would not live there if
you could help it. You would not bring up your
children there if you could help it.
But other people cannot help it.
There are hundreds of towns in this Christian
land new towns, towns on the frontier, towns
on the western plains where there is no
, church and can be none unless you help build it.
These Are Ihelacts
Six out of every ten children in the United States
never cross the threshold of a church or Sunday-school.
Sixty per cent of our children are without religious
training. Think of it! Twenty-six million children.
How long do you think America can remain
Christian under conditions like these?
It is up to somebody to bring about a change. , If it
is not your business, whose is it?
1 You cannot afford to evade the issue.
Between Now and Next Sunday
Northern Baptists must complete the raising of
$100,000,000.
.The New World Movement must go forward. ,
Of this fund, $75,000,000 will be spent within the
borders of the United States. There will be
churches in Churchless Town. There Will be
Sunday-schools for untrained children. New forces
for Christian progress will be set at work through
out the land.

HOW TO JUDGE A WOMAN
BY HER HAIR
There is real common sense in
just noticing whether the hair is well
kept to judpc of a woman's neat
ness, or good taste. If you are one
of the few who try to make the
most of your hair, remember that
it is not advisable to wash the hair
with any cleanser made for all pur
poses, but always use some good
shampoo. You can enjoy the very
best by getting some canthrox from
your druggist, dissolve a teaspoon
full in a cup of hot water. This
makes a full cup of shampoo li
quid, enough so it is easy to apply
it to all the hair instead of just the
top of the head. Dandruff, excess
oil, and dirt are dissolved and en
tirely disappear. Your hair will be
pso fluffy that it will look much
heavier than it is. Its luster and
softness will also delight you, while
the stimulated ?cn!p gains the health
which insures hair growth. N
