WILSON BARS WOMEN AS
PRIVATE SECRETARIES

take dictation from the chiefs of bu.
reaus, but he will not allow them to
be detailed to fill positions the duties
of which might require them to re-
main after the working hours or to go
to the homes of the chiefs to finish
work outside of office hours.
Two years ago, when there was a
scandal in the department, the woman
who performed the duties of private
secretary for bureau chief for sew
eral years, was brought into a noto-
riety altogether displeasing to the
secretary. Although he knew that
there was no foundation for the in
situations against the woman, he had
to keep quiet and merely hope that
the notoriety would not spread.
A majority of the men chiefs do not
want women in such positions, but
occasionally one comes along who is
so we'll pleased with the work done, by
a particular clerk that he asks to have
her promoted and made private secre-
tary. Requests of that kind are being
refused.

VACATIONS COST UNCLE
SAM BIG SUM YEARLY

WASHINGTON his hired help
W Uncle Sam Is generous to a de-
gree, going down into his wallet to the
extent of something like $3,000,OOo an
nually to give them 30-days' outing
at the seashore or in the mountains.
This sum is for the army of en-
ployes in Washington alone and does
not include the thousands of others
who are on duty and on the payrolls
throughout his vast domain and in
foreign countries. Liberal lawmakers
decided that ten months each year
was long enough for employees to
work. and that 30 days for annual
leave. At first this law was for the
officials and clerks only, and did not
include printers, pressman and navy
yard workmen. Eventually these
were given Is days annual leave, and
finally, through hard and persistent
efforts, the full 80 days. No sick
leave, however, has ever been granted
them, and, strange as it may appear,
they seem to be the healthiest class
of government workers. The govern
ment printing office, the bureau of
engraving and printing, and the navy
yard are not classed as hospitals for
invalids." as the treasury and other
departments are termed. Not getting
pay for being sick, those not entitled
to such leave manage to remain in
extraordinarily good health and per-
form their duties with great regular
ity The employees who are not en-
titled to sick leave must have some
thing worse than rocky head and

WHEN Miss Ethel Roosevelt makes
w her formal bow to society at the
White House next winter Washington
will see the first of series Of en-
tertainments such as have not been
held since the days of Nellie Grant.
True, the social career of Mrs. Mich
olas Longworth, as Alice Roosevelt,
was marked by many notable affairs
in Washington, but with the excep-
ton of a few small dinners which
were given for her shortly before she
was married there was only one large
entertainment at the White House
which was strictly for Alice, and that
was her coming out ball.
Whether the continuous shower of
attentions from her friends and So
ciety generally precluded Miss Alice
from having many affairs of her own
was never made clear.
Miss Ethels first season as a so
ciety girl will be notable. According
to the present plans, which are being
discussed, brilliant ball win be

LINEN NOW VERY POPULAR.
Seen Everywhere Both In Sheer and
Heavy Qualities.

fdnen Is more popular than ever,
both In the sheer and heavy qualities.
Nothing makes more satisfactory
costume for business than one of the
new canvas weaves of linen in one OF
the many serviceable shades Of brown,
dull blue and gray now so much worn.
These are, as rule, made in strictly
tailored fashion, with half-fitting or
tight, half-length or short coats.
The more elaborate linen suits are
in bolero or eton styles. Many of
them show the oriental tendency, and
all are more or less trimmed. Soutache
braiding and hand embroidery COM
bined is much seen on them, or the
embroidery alone.
White or ecru linens frequently show
the color note in their trimmings.
This is often given by hand-embroid-
cred dots. Sometimes the cuffs. col
lars and revers are in a colored linen.
Thus one stylish string-colored linen
had collar, waistcoat and cuffs of rose
pink set in inch bands of the string

The Linen Crock.

Linen robes, beautifully hand en-
broidered, are on view In all the
shops, and there are, too, embroidered
bordure linens-that is, linens with
deep embroidered border. This Dor
der is most often executed in fine
soutache, with French knots and oc-
casional embroidery stitches scattered
throughout the intricate design, and
the result is often exceedingly eff
fective Linen laces dyed to match
the material are used upon some new
linen frocks and coats, and such dyed
lace in cluny, filet or antique forms
most successful trimming, some soft
lace, such as valenciennes or a fine
batlste embroidery, being necessary.

drawing blanks" to cause them to re-
main from duty. In the government
printing Office, where there are about
1000 men and women employed, there
are only occasional absences on ac-
count of sickness, while in the treas
ury department, with about the same
number of employees, the sick list each
day is simply amazing. The same is
true of other departments in which
the employees are entitled to sick
leave.
So badly abused has been the sick
leave privilege that at the last session
of congress what appeared to be a
determined effort was made to repeal
the law, but the matter was permitted
to go over, giving the Keep commits
sion and other reformers an opportun-
ity to make further investigation and
secure facts and figures. If one is to
Judge by the policy of retrenchment
and reform so strenuously carried out
by the present administration, it is
entirely safe to assert that sick leave
will not be one of the pickups now en-
joyed by government workers after
the next session of congress.
There are in Washington about 81
900 employees of Uncle Sam. The sal.
airy and wages paid will aver $1,000
each, male and female This gives to
each individual employee 500 leave
money, and is ready on call for Off
Gals and clerks any time during the
calendar year, but employees of the
class stated are not entitled to leave
until the beginning of the fiscal year

BANNER THAT INSPIRED
SONG IS NOW ON VIEW

n HE flag that foated over Fort Nc
Henry during the bombardment by
the British on the night of September
Is, 1914, and which inspired Francis
Scott Key when he saw it still float
ing over the ramparts at sunrise the
next morning to write the "Star-Span-
gled Banner" is now upon exhibition
in the hall of history at the Smithson-
fan institution.
The flag, which is about 2SxS0 feet,
has been loaned to the institution by
Mr.. Eben Appleton of New York, for
two years upon the personal solicita-
ton of DR.. Charles d. Walcott, secre-
tary of the institution. AS the flag
lies draped in the glass case, only one
of the large stars is visible. 1t is
backed by canvas stated to have been
placed there by the late Admiral
Preble, formerly stationed at the Bos-
ton. navy yard. AS little of the flag
can be seen in it's present resting
place, it is the purpose of the officials
of the institution to drape it upon one

1t had been intended that Miss

HEREAFTER women clerks of the
a. department of agriculture will not
be permitted to act as private secre-
taries or confidential clerks for male
chiefs of divisions or bureaus.
Secretary Wilson has no prejudice
against them, but he deems it due to
them that not one of them be re-
quired to perform services that will
bring her into such relations with her
chief as to enable evel-minded per-
sons to do any gossiping. He consid-
ers it better for the good name of
the women employees in the depart
mental service to make rule that
men chiefs of division shall have men
as private secretaries or confidential
clerks.
The fact that the secretary had pre-
scribed such a rule for his own guild
ance has become known recently
through his refusal to permit woman
stenographer to be detailed as clerk
to a chief of bureau. He is perfectly
willing to have the stenographers

of the walls of the hall of history,
where it can be plainly viewed by the
visitors to the building.
According to ]. B. Taylor, of the
United States coast and geodetic sur
yey, Col Armstead, who commanded
Fort McHenry during the lombard
ment by the British fleet, took the
flag after the rain of shot and shell
had ceased and had it conveyed to
his headquarters. He later gave ii
to his mother, who was a sister OF
Mr.. Taylor's Observation-Disclosures.
Col. Armstead's mother some years
afterward, it is said, presented the
flag to her granddaughter, who mar.
ried one of the Appletons Of New
York and Boston. Later Mr.. Eben
Appleton came into possession of the
flag. In his letter to DR.. Walcott Mr..
Appleton says that he is pleased to
loan the flag to the Smithsonian, so
as to enable so many of his country
men to see the ensign that caused
"The Star-Spangled Banner" to be
written.

STYLE of Hair Counts.

A fashion writer says that 1t is not
the woman but her hair that counts.
and declares that she has seen the
most unpromising nomely woman
completely transformed by means of a
stylish or becoming manner of wear
ing the hair. 1t should always be kept
in the best possible condition, and
should be shampooed at least once In
three weeks, although many women
are required to give the hair this
cleansing treatment much oftener.
