HARGROVE'S HARD TASK
BACHELOR OFFICIAL TO SELECT
WOMEN's WEARING APPAREL.

NJ. y. Hargrove, property clerk Of the
District. who does all the buying for the
local government from pins to pianos. is
up against it. He has arrived at that point
of buying the supplies for the various de-
partments of the lpcal government for the
next year. where he has to buy dresses,
hats and other wearables for the girls and
women in the different correctional elee-
mosynary institutions.
MIR. Hargrove is a young man and is sin
gle and as far as women's apparel is con-
cerned. his education has been neglected.
He by no means relishes the duty he has to
perform-that of selecting several hundred
pieces OF clothing and hats of various
shapes. cuts and colors. He has put off the
Job as long as possible. hoping that some
of his more experienced married friends
around the District building would aid him.
but far no one has come to his rescue
and he has YEARLY scratched his head for
the last time and decided to do his best.
He Will advertise for bids for these arti-
cles from various clothing firms. That
sounds easy, but the work does not end
there, unfortunately, for Mr.. Hargroye.
When these firms submit their bids they
also furnish dozens OF samples. and 1t will
then fall TO the lot of this young official to
go over them carefully and take a chance
OF pleasing the girls and women in the In
situations supported by the District, who
are doubtless anxiously waiting to see what
will be the styles of their fall and winter
clothing.
There is one thing fortunate for Mr.. Har-
grove in the making of these purchases,
and that is he can buy several dozens of
the same articles, and each dress and hat
does not necessarily have to be different
from the others. The rule Of a woman re-
fusing to wear dress hat IL one of her
friends has the identical style and color
does not hold good at the District institu-
lions.
The first institution to receive the atten-
ton OF Mr. Hargrove will be the Industrial
Home School for Girls. The requisition for
this calls for four dozen neglige shirt
waists with collars attached, fourteen
dozen navy blue winter coats. fourteen
dozen navy blue dresses for winter wear
and thirty-six dozen winter hats
To do his part satisfactorily as possible
Mr.. Hargrove has solicited pointers from
nearly every woman clerk around the Dis
trict building and has purchased half
dozen fashion magazines

lowing him he leaped from a second-story
window. Policeman Jackson jumped, too.
