CRUSADE ON DRESS.
TO Be CONSIDERED
District Branch of Federation OF
Women's Clubs May Be
Asked to Aid Campaign.

Whether the 1000 women of Washing
ton no are members of the District
branch of the Federation of Womsn's
Clubs, will be asked tC join in cru
sade for sane dress and sane dances.
will be discussed at meeting Oh the
social hygiene committee of the FED
Grafton next Thursday morning AT the
rooms at 7l6 Thirteenth street north
west.
DR.. E. c. Foikmar, chairman Of this
committee, declared today that execu-
tive board of the federation wouid pe
invited 10 attend the committee meetihS'
and that the members of the soclal ny
g.ene committee of the Mothers Siuo
also would be invited.
The decision to take this up IN com
mittee was reached at "a meeting Oh tne
executive board OF the Women = Cluos
yesterday afternoon at the home OF Mrs
Ell,s Logan, 1858 Fairmnnt street, whSn
Mrs William HitZ. in offering SuS-
gestion of a work that should be TAKEN
uE by the organization this winter,
mentioned immoslest dress ana lhi-
modest dances as things the c'"o
women should attack.
A serious discussion of the subject
was aroused and it was the consshsuS
OF. opinion that the federation snouc
take stand against the extreme Styles,
the ulaphanouS ana SIT Shi' an1 :,,
modes which the women noted WIN
regret were being adopted by young
girls not out of their teens.
Several of the women Voiced tne
opinion that the club women OF WASH
ington could not do a better work than
to lead the way to saner dressing. me
extreme dances were as seriously crlti-
cised Plain dresses and plain coiors'
and the old fashioned dances were gwen
the approval Of the women.
The committee called by DR.. Folkmar
for next Thursday morning has not the
authority to direct whether cr'isnae
of this character shall be taken up by
the Federation. but it will discuss tne
subject. and if a report is made favor
ing united action by the women along
this line it would be given serious con-
sideration probably at the first meeting
of the District branch of the Federation
in November.

Woman AppIauds
Order of McAdo0

Mrs. c. Hammond Kennedy. a Wash
ington society won1aD and a returning
European tourist. is in hearty favor OF
Secretary McAdoos order rigidly ex-
cluding all aigrettes or other wild bird
plumage from entry into this country,
whether or not such aigrette Or plu-
mage happens already to adorn a wom-
ans hat.
c. Hammond Kennedy, who is a noted
authority on international law. differs
with his wife. not in sentiment. but
from law standpoint. According to
cable dispatches, sent as the couple
were sailing for home, Mr. Kennedy be-
lieves that the seizing of such plumes
purchased abroad comes close to con-
fiscation.
Mrs. Kennedy disdained to quibble on
constitutional questions. She told re-
porters on the pier that nothing had
made her happier on her trips than the
news from home that the Government
had taken the initiative in putting a
stop to the cruel and disgraceful prac-
tice of killing the female bird at nest
ing time in order to provide adornment
for women's hats"
Mr.. Kennedy interposed that he
doubted the legality of seizure.

COLUMBIA HOSPITAL
SUFFERS BIG LOSS
Difference in Cost of Mainte-
nance and Fees Paid For
Patients Reason for Deficit.

BY reason Of the difference in the cost
of the care and treatment Of patients
sent to the Columbia Hospital for Wom-
en- by the Board of Charities and the
contract price, the hospital was the loser
of s1l.O69.S2, according TO the annual re-
port Of the board of directors of the in
stitution. made public today.
The report Of the medical superin-
tendent, Or. J. o. Skinner, shows that
the cost of the care and treatment of
adults was $1.92 a day, and for infants
~ cents, while the amount allowed by
the Board of Charities is s1.2O day tor
adults and 40 cents for children.
The total excess of the cost, il is
stated, was paid in part out OF the
receipts from pay patients. and the bal
ance is a part of the outstanding liza
bilities Of the hospital.
1t would seem only REASONABLY and
just. says DR.. Skinner. that We should
be reimbursed by the Board of Chari-
ties for the difference between that
which it actually pays US and the actual
cost OF maintenance, or that the Der
Gien rate be increased by the Board
OF Charities in its future contracts with
Us. particularly when II is clearly ap-
parent from Our annual report that
our daily cost of maintenance and
treatment is not only Ieasonable.> but
rluch less than the cost of similar work
Gone in other hospitals throughout the
United States and Canada
The present contract OF the Board
of Charities with the Columbia Hospital
expires July /. George s. Wilson, sec
retary of the hoard. said today that
while the board is now paying to the
Columbia Hospital more for the care
OF its patients than to any other i'll
stitution. the question Of increasing the
contract price will be considered at
that time.
The total number Of patients treated
at the hospital during the year ended
June 90. was L55I-709 white and SIS
colored. The earnings for the year
amounted to S32,322.sS. IF which s19.-
1850 was received from the Boa-l Of
Charities, for the subsistence, care and
treatment Of INDECENT patients. sl6.-

Congress included in the sundry civil
act an appropriation of 100000 for
beginning the construction Of a modern
fireroof building. costing rot more tran
100000 to replace the present hospital
The building will be erected under the
direction and supervision of the super
intendent of the Capitol Buildings nd
