REST ROOM FOR LADIES
a Lady From the County Heartily
Endorses the Suggestion of The
News

A Lady From the County Heartily
Endorses the Suggestion of The
News.
To the Editor of The News
1t was splendid suggestion made
by you that Lancaster have a rest
room for the ladies of the county.
Our neighboring towns and cities
have rest rooms, ladies' parlors, etc,
and Lancaster needs something of
the kind to accommodate her ladies.
She needs it to advertise and build
up the town and county. in any OF
the towns where such rest rooms
are, the ladies have shown their ap-
probation and the town has gained
by it,
If our ladies, after having ridden
from two to fifteen miles on a hot.
dusty day in summer or a cold
wintry day in winter, had a ladies'
rest room TO go to and freshen up a
little before going up town, they
would feel more like doing their
shopping and they would not dread
their trip to town as many of them
do, who live some distance from
Lancaster.
Not long ago, in a rest room,
met lady who told me she had
driven thirteen miles to town. I
asked If that was her nearest town
and she answered, mo, D. is only
seven miles from my home, and is
Just as good a town as this, but io
has no ladies' rest room, therefore
l prefer to drive five miles further
and do my shopping in this town.
where can enjoy the rest room"
II Lancaster only had such a
place, hundreds of ladies would
soon decide to shop in Lancaster in
stead of going to other towns that
are Just as near or possibly a little
nearer, and in doing this our mer-
chants and town would receive the
benefit.
1t is my sincere wish that Ian
caster will soon have ladies' rest
room.
