REST ROOMS FOR LADIES.
viii Be Found at the Model countr

Will Be Found at the Model Country
Home, on the state Fair Grounds,
One of the most delightful redezvous
at the Louisiana State Fair this year,
as heretofore, will be the model coun.
try home and school They are located
just inside the Fair grounds near the
main electric car entrance and are
connected by model road.
Throughout the Fair, which viii
open Nov 2 and continue through Nov.
II, these buildings viii be open to the
lady visitors Open house will be kept
all the time that the Fair grounds are
open and every lady visiting the Fair
has a cordial invitation to make the
model home her rest place. A number
of the leading women of Shreveport
will be in personal charge of the home
and viii have attendants to assist them
In looking after the wishes of the diff,
ferent guests. Every comfort will be
provided for the pleasure of the la
dies.
A particular feature of the plan of
the Mothers Congress, which organi.
cation has charge of the model home,
is to care for the babies brought to
the Fair. There will be competent
nurses to look after the little ones
while their mothers enjoy the sights
about the grounds and buildings. Ever
since the home was constructed the
nursery has been operated and it has
proven one Of the most enjoyable fea-
lures, for it has been instrumental in
making many mothers have a happy
time, which probably would not have
been the case had it been necessary
that they keep the babies with them
grounds. The committee of ladies who
will have charge of the home promise
that every possible attention will be
given the little folks
For the ladies the biggest attraction
this year will be the annual baby show,
in which all children under certain
ages are qualified for entry. A letter
to Secretary T.. n. Brueggerhoff of the
Fair association will result in all the
information desired about this part OF
the Fair program. There will be sew
eral classes entered and scores Of the
prettiest and handsonest youngsters
in Louisiana will be exhibited Judges
who are well fitted to note the merits
of the various children exhibited will
compile the different points and then
make the selection of winners, basing
the decisions upon the facts as shown
by careful examinations. This has
been the plan pursued heretofore and
it has worked remarkably satisfaeto-
rily, as evidenced by the growing pop
ularity in the show, which each year
is held in the model home under the
auspices of the Mothers, Congress.
Handsome premiums will be given the
babies capturing the most points
Every day during the Fair there will
be a reception or some other enter
tainment at the model home Ladies
organizations will be welcome to hold
meetings there and some of them are
already preparing elaborate programs
Every convenience that goes te
make up a comfortable home is shown
IN this building. which Is especially
designed for the pleasure of the WON
en- visitors. In it are shown bedroom
sitting room. dining room. kitchen and
nursery. The furniture is of model
make and on the walls are hung draw
ings and other things of beauty.
Summing the model home up as the
ladies' who have charge of it wish it
to be known, this home is the rendez
vous for the ladies visiting the Fair
and the Mothers Congress invites ev
cry one Of them to be sure and spend
as much tine as possible enjoying +
pleasures.
