HAMILTON MABIE COMING
ciety and Literature" Near at
Hand.

American Society and Literature" is
the subject Of the interesting lecture
Hamilton w. Mabie is to deliver at
Plymouth church next Friday evening In
the New Century course.
The subject is one that attracts the lee
ture going public, and is one that is es-
pecially adapted to DR.. Mabfe's sympa-
thies, tastes and reflection.
Few are in such demand as DR.. Mabie Is
for addresses. Every year half a dozen
universities insist upon having him de-
liver a commencement or baccaleaureate
address. Our own University Of Mime
sofa has vainly tried to get him. Then,
again, there is always pressing invitations
for lectures, all the way from Portland,
Maine to Portland, Oregon, but Mr.. Mabfe
is only able to accept a very few each
year.
Those who have mot heard Dr.. Mabie,
but have read his books or journalistic
writings, will not find It difficult to un-
derstand DR.. Mable's success on the plat
form, when they are told that the lee
lures are merely the wealth Of DR.. Ma
bie's thought and literary skill plus de-
lightfu1 personal presence and In
descr1bable charm Of manner.
The seat sale for DR.. Mabie's lecture
opens Monday at the Metropolitan Music
store.

SCRUB WOMEN RECOGNIZED
Chicago Union Secures Recognition from
Building Managers.

Chicago, Feb. 27.-The scrub women's
union has secured recognition from the
Building Managers association. Recog-
milton. however. is not the only thing
the women asked for. They want a mini
mum scale of wages Of 20 cents an hour,
and an unlimited number of hours. The
managers are perfectly ready. to grant
the hours, but to the wages they have
agreed to aTbltrate.
Another thing the women want is bet
ter wardrobe accommodations. Rats.
they say, have been playing havoc with
their spring hats while they have scrubbed
floors and cleaned Offices of night.
Susan Horton and Mary McLean-tfe
latter not from Montana-representing the
scrubwomen's union, waited on the labor
committee of the Building Managers as
ISOLATION to-day and presented their
grievances. Chairman Arnold of the COM
rnittee agreed to take the matter under
consideration.

A Good Work.

Skandinaven has done splendid work
in collecting funds for the relief of the
famine sufferers in Finland, which work
it undertook on behalf Of the Finnns be-
cause they are widely scattered and have
no strong central organization. The total
sum credited to the fund on Feb "a was
s17,o10-44. This is all the more creditahle
from the fact that nearly all the contribu-
lions are in very small sums, the average
being probably less than 81.

started more recently showed $7e2.e6 on
