When this plant was laid before
the men. they realized that there
was truth in the statement that the
women had not been given a chance
to do any boosting" on their own
account. They set about planning
something at once. What should
that something be? dance? Too

A few years ago a Washington
woman opened a shop where young
people could be fitted with especially
designed garments. She Is now an
authority on fashions for grown-ups
as well as for children.
Another woman. confronted by tho
necessity OF supporting herself. de-
cided to capitalize her artistic talent
in q millinery shop. She has Just
transferred her headquarters to an
attractive establishment In Connecti-
cut avenue.
A third found herself sole manager
OF her husbands store after his
death. Though In a location where
there was much competition. the
store has been made a paying propo-
sition through her keenness In busi-
ness matters.
Such Is the material from which
the feminine contingent Of Washing
toms merchants Is drawn. Officially
banded together under the group
known as the Business Women's
Section of the Retail Merchants
Association. they form what Is be-
lleved to be the only organization
Of its kind in America.

Active membership In the associa-
ton is restricted to those women who
are the actual owners OF shops In the

who are silent partners In the busi-
