Whispers.


Another complaint which 1 heard made
by yet another man was that women
would insist upon getting together in
groups of two or three and whispering
hard at each other. II have never in
my life heard man whisper in club"
he exclaimed. fretfully And l must con-
fess that loud sibilant whisper is much
more disturbing and irritating than a
quietly outSpoken undertone demi-voix.
At concert or meeting, or anywhere
where there is a desire to make COM
munication without disturbing the per-
Torrance that is in progress. have often
observed how much more effectual and
less noticeable a quiet low murmur is
than a whispered remark. If there were
any golden rules by. which women could
learn to become "cltbable"-don't whis-
per- should be one of the first to be
taught-an injunction not infrequently
necessary to very young children of both
sexes, when making their debrts in
polite society
strange notices posted up in club halls.
One was to the effect that members max
ing use of the club bedrooms were re-
quested not to receive guests in the rooms
they occupied. 1 inquired the reason of
this prohibition and | was told that the
rule was made in consequence of one
member having displayed her rousseau
in the room she had engaged and that
a continual stream of visitors kept the
club servants engaged in usherng them
up from morn till night. l think one
may fairly surmise that the bedrooms
in mans club would hardy ever be
put to the same use.
But / admit that the reason for the
new rule somewhat treasured me, as I
had heard OminOus rumors about other
clubs that We're a little disquieting One
club was reported to have given shelter
10 a lady (and her maid) who, on ac-
count of the nervousness of her DISPOSE
ton. required her maids room to COM
municate with hers. The size Of the
maids boots. l am told excited com

ing essential to the inches of an AbigaiIs

WANT TO REDUCE COST
OF EAST ORANGE WATER.

Suggestions for cutting down the ex-
penses incident to the operation of the
municipal water plant Of East Orange
at White Oak Ridge, Millburn, were
made at a meeting of the water COM
mittee of the City Council last night
by Councilman Burr. He was In favor
of cutting down the shifts on Sum
days, and claims that not so much
water is used by the residents during
the winter months.
An agitation for reducing expendi-
lures at the plant has been advocated
a long period. Chairman Saxelby, of
the committee. however. has opposed
any such move on the ground that the
present force is needed in order to
carry on the work properly. Council
man Grover has agreed with MF, Burr
and some action one way or another
may be taken by the Council In the
near future. y
