a Club for, the american Cir. ABROAD

Z Club for the American Cir! Abroad
To the club-woman abroad the American
Girls Art Club in Paris will be of inter
est. The club, which owes its financial
backing TO Mrs. Whitelaw Reid, has as
its splendid purpose the .'mothering'' Of
the small army of ambitious American
girls who make the French capital their
Mecca-young and unprotected girls,
many Of them. who are bound to meet
bitter disaDpointments. So, about nine
years ago a house in the Rue Chevaseuse
was opened where girl students could
secure quarters / reasonable rates. Aside
from these residents, any American girl
student may come every afternoon for
a chat and comforting cup Of tea, and
the number who avail themselves Of this
social privilege is said to be surprisingly
large. It is also interesting to know
that the Holy Trinity Church has buff
a little chapel in he courtyard of the
club, and every Sunday evening after
service the young men in the Latin Quar-
ter are invited in for a social hour. The
whole scheme will seem splendid and
very practical, particularly to those
acquainted with what is sometimes called
the girl art-student problem" in Paris
