her agency, and she makes due entry OF

short day, 12 D. m. to p. m, IN many
OF the hotels The work is carried on by
shifts. Meals are supplied in private
dining-room set on for special use OF
floor clerks. and in some OF the hotels
the force is lodged. At the head OF the
corps is woman, known as the head
floor clerk.
The fact that no previous training Is
reasired has made this vocation particu-
larly available for gentlewomen thrown
upon their own resources without warn
ing. Though appearance is of apprecia-

Lacks Inspiration.
This work itself is very light. Its main
drawback Is its lack OF inspiration. For
an active person, the tedium OF sitting at
q desk, with nothing like the diversity
of programme afforded in the average
office routine, is wearing. One young
woman who recently substituted for a
few weeks. on a floor Of one OF the
hotels. with the thought OF getting placed
permanently, rebelled at the semi-isola-
tion of the position and the enforced
idleness. She was an active young
woman. social in her sympathies, and
distinctly missed her vocation In the
hotel corridor.
But another woman, of different tenn

Of her life when she got her present po-
sltion on the floor staff OF a newer hotel.
She is not active. She has no technical
training and no more general culture
than a girl gets from a boarding-school
education. yet, with that equipment she
found herself forced to seek her own
livelihood. She had just one assest that
proved availabie-a friend had come ur
to New York from the South and, stop

much impressed by the pleasing person

had cultivated a sufficient acquaintance
to learn something about the duties OF
