for meeting of athletic directors, sing ing teachers and committees. In fact, they are the most democratic of in stitutions. Commanding officers and privates mingle freely together and eat at tables provided for picnic lunches. The spread" provided by the family Of the man in modest cir cumstances may appear on one table while chicken and "fixins" are eaten at the next table. Every one is good natured and the atmosphere is calcu- lated to break down class barriers.
 One of the most interesting of the hostess houses is at Fort Sheridan, III.
 Great efforts have been made to give this building a home-like appearance, though it has served on several occa- sions in formal capacities. There is no limit to the efforts to make this house not alone a haven of rest but a
 bureau of service and information. A list of rooms is kept for women who desire to stay over night, chaperones are furnished for girls, lost children are cared for, and officers wives meet here to get acquainted and to talk with their husbands. Even the baby is not forgotten and in an emergency milk is

dollars. It has an enclosed veranda, a big living room and a well equipped kitchen.
 A cheery spirit is also maintained at Camp Stanley near San Antonio, for here, too, is the open fire place and tea and cakes are served every after noon with true Southern hospitality. The spirit of good will also prevails at Camp Lewis, Washington, where Major Stone gave every possible as sistance and encouragement in the erection of the hostess house. It has a big lobby with open fire places, a glassed-in porch and a cobble stone chimney made of stones gathered nearby. The building is S5 by 156 feet and it has a hall, writing room dining room, nursery, cloak room and information office. A large share of the furniture was donated and the men are proud of their hostess house and of their ability to receive their friends.
 The hostess house at Deming, New Mexico, has just been completed and as Deming is a small town it is much appreciated. It has been necessary to
