alone would dissipate the profits OF a
business enterprise!
The old established Girls club Of the
Rue de Chevrouse has always been sus-
tained by Mrs. Whitelaw Reid. It's
present managress. Miss Moffett, a de-
lightful maiden lady from New Eng
land. is her sole representative. When
the garden is photographed h sends
