has unusual advantages of displaying her
ingenuity and cleverness along the ar
tistic lines as well as the prosy old prac-
teal lines
This Mrs. Camp has done, and she
has been fortunate in having a beau
tiful background like the Ridgely to
work with, and the cooperation of the
management who, eager and anxious to
provide every pleasure and comfort for
the guests of the place, have entered
into the spirit enthusiastically, de-
termined to make it success.
There is no doubt that southern
hotels and apartment houses make a
mistake in not featuring their roofs
during the summer" Mrs. Camp said,
in speaking of the Ridgely roof gar
iden. THE summers are so long and so
sultry and hot, that it is almost a
necessity to spend most of the time
out of doors and the apartment dweller
necessarily is handicapped in this way.
OF course people in their own homes
have their broad piazzas and beautiful
lawns to live in during the summer, but
the apartment dweller has only the
four walls of his apartment, and if the
space is provided by a handsome build
ing like the Ridgely, there is no rea-
son why it should not be beautiful and
made livable.''
"1n the first place roof is capable
of such attractive treatment" said Mrs.
Camp. who is more Interested in her
work and is more anxious for the sue
cessful naturalization of her plans
than almost anybody you ever
saw. 1--WE have transformed the Ridge
ly roof into a most picturesque place
1 think. The Japanese idea has been
carried out effectively, and the quaint
lest of flowers we have utilized in our

iboxes surrounding the roof, give a
charming, home-like appearance to the
place."
! How and where did learn all this?''
Mrs. Camp repeated my question and
then said: Il am surprise even to my
self. When l found the necessity Of go
| ing out into the world and earning a
living I was confronted with the most
battling and puzzling proposition l ever
! faced; / had never. done anything
| least of all housekeeping-so it seemed
rather odd that / should have settled
on that plan. I had my first experience
as house mother with the Delta Gam
ma Sorority at the University of Cali
fornia, and later as chaperon in fash
| ionable western school for girls. Then
| Ignorance made me undertake any
thing more ambitious: but as house
keeper is a necessary evil in every hotel
! and apartment house, 1 felt that if [
had the opportunity I could make
good"
| IF a person can make a success out
of housekeeping in Birmingham Mrs.
Camp said, 81 believe it is a recon-
mendation that will carry them any
where, for it is fight against dirt and
dust all the time, from morning until
night it is the most difficult place in
the world to keep a neat, clean house.
and the only advice that 1 could give
| to any one along this line is that
ternal vigilance is the one thing that
will win out in the end"

"WO thousand suffragists of America
will meet in Atlantic City on Sep
TENDER in a great emergency
convention" 1t has taken its name from
the fact that the officers of the National
American Woman Suffrage association re-
gard the present moment as crisis in the
struggle for political equality. They say
that it is to be the most important con-
vention ever called.
For the first time the women are to
frame platform and to determine their
election party at a suffrage convention.
Also they are to consider a presidential
campaign in its relation to equal fran
chise issues. The delegates will vote on
whether or not their association is to re-
main neutral in political matters, as it
has been in the past.
Mrs. Carrie Chapman Gait, president of
the National American Woman Suffrage
association, points out the significance
of the fact that every candidate for the
presidency of the United States is a be-
lever in woman suffrage, and that all,
except the democratic candidate, have in
dorsed the Susan B. Anthony amendment.
President Wilson, also, she thinks, will be
persuaded to vote for the federal amend
ment when he reflects upon the causes
that are driving women to fight for it.
President Wilson may even be present
to address the suffrage convention on
Friday, September g. right in the midst
of discussion of the policy of the ma
tional convention. The women may de-
eide on this day whether or not they are
to continue in their nonpartisan attitude
OF the past or whether they shall follow
the lead of the other women's organi-
cations all over the country, and come
out in the support of a candidate.
Election Policy" is the heading of
the forenoon's session on the programme
and this will be formally decided upon
after the executive council has made it's
recommendations upon the matter
why Women Need the Vote,' will be
the topic of debate at the Friday evening
session, at which DR.. Anna Howard Shaw
will preside, and Katharine Bement Davis
and Julia Lathrop will be the chief
speakers.
Miss Mary Garrett Hay chairman of
the committee of arrangements, urges
those who need suggestions about hotels
and similar matters, to write her at the
national headquarters, III Madison
avenue.
