consul at Barcelona. Both are Of the
District of Columbia. Mr., Hurst is now
at Barcelona, and Mr.. Diederich at

In addition to these. there were var
ious nominations in the hands Of COM
mittees. and not acted on. One of these
is the nomination of Commissioner Sid
dons to be justice Of the District Su-
preme Court 1t Is still in the hands
Of a subcommittee of the Judiciary
Committee.
The subcommittee has had charges
placed in its hands calculated to reflect
on Mr.. Siddons. Senator'S were not dis
posed to discuss these. but it was learn
ed the charges related to the acceptance
Of fees in a pardon case by the law
firm of which Mr.. 'Siddons is a member.
1t is said to be unlikely the charges viii
interfere with Mr.. Siddons' confirma-
ton. Senators take the view that he
had nothing personally to do with the
transaction. Moreover, it Is not unusual
for lawyers to demand fees in pardon
cases, the same as In other cases
wherein they contribuate legal serv-
ices. All the indications are that Mr..
Siddons will be confirmed in December.

Miss CALENDER and her work. A few
weeks previous, the union had closed
a Chinese mission on John Marshall
place. The equipment was there. and
Mrs. Culbertson, through the union.
obtained the use of 1t for the new
home.
Until the home can be permanently
established as a self-supporting in
stitution, the expenses incident to
actually caring for the homeless
convalescent girls. will probably be
betrayed by sustaining members"
in enlisting whom, the missionary
union has interested itself.
At present, Miss Calender is in
position to equip one of the large
upper rooms of the old house as
a dormitory. containing six beds, and
she has already started negotiations
for another large building, now va
cant, adjoining the home.
Explains the Need.
IF the women of Washington will
help me-" declared Miss Calender.
81 can make a useful institution Of
the Convalescent Home. 1 know just
how great the need Of such an in
stitution in Washington really is.
Il have known the hours of pri-
walton which too often follow the
discharge Of homeless young women
from hospitals. The physicians have
done all that they can do for such
a patient. But the girl so dis
charged, while not ill enough to war
rant the hospital officials in keeping
her there any longer. is perhaps
not strong enough to go to work.
Or perhaps a girl may be discharged
from a hospital, physically all right.
Still in all probability. she has no
work tn which to go. with the pros-
pect Of many days Of tramping the
streets in search OF employment.
institutions where women such
as these may go are all too few in
Washington. and those which do ex-
ist are too often overcrowded. Two
weeks of food and shelter after
long illness. affording a woman an
opportunity to locate a place OF em-
ployment, may often mean just the
difference between a girl saved and
a girl gone wrong. =.
Then, too; in this neighborhood
there Is room for other social ser
vice projects. The streets in this
part Of the city are full of boys and
girls. The boys are mischievous
and undisciplined today. But boys
club run in connection with the girls
home, would be Of immense benefit.
There might also be profitably es-
tablished a branch for little girls
and perhaps a few classes where
they might be given the rudiments
Of some useful occupation

Weakened from the effects of a
a woman walked the streets Of
Washington one night in the late
nineties. Time and time again she
was refused shelter in rescue homes.
All the cots were taken, and besides
she was one Of those rare unfortu-
mates, a woman who had not fallen
and yet needed aid.
Over and over again, she promised
herself that If her fortunes should
ever change, she would at some time
or other, take up the work of Civ
ing aid to women who are too ad-
vanced along the convalescent road
to remain in a hospital, yet too
much enervated by sickness to be
able to work.
This woman had come to WASH
ington from Barbados. in the Brit
fish West Indies. She was the daush-
ter Of a Scotchman and his Irish
wife, and being of the stern breed
who remember promises they have
made, this woman-Helen Calender
is her name-has interested some
Washington women in her project

southwest, in that old residential
section Of Washington where fifty
years ago the best of society lived
within sound Of the believing steam
boats and fussy tugs which in those
years kept the waters or the Poto-
mac eternally unquiet.
But the folks who lived in the big
house moved farther uptown as
time changed, and the place itself
for many years did duty as stor-
age place for the Arsenafs quar-
termaster supplies.
Situation At Present.
Miss Calender is not woman OF
means. She undertook the work,
believing that she could impress upon
the women Of Washington the neeo
of such an institution. And SO wnen
the old house on n street was offer-
red for rent, she went to the owner
and told her Of the plans for the
girls home. Impressed. the owner
agreed to take the nominal rental OF
s5 a month for the premises for SIX
months. All
Having accomplished that, Miss
Calender moved in. rented the lower
floor of the house to mission
thereby insuring the necessary ren.
tai. and made an effort to interest
some organization in the work.
