They know all about it-witness
the fact that nearly 5000 girls regis

the cool, hospitable rooms, and they
are continually expressing the fear
that the club house will be abandoned
now that things are getting down to a
peace footing. However, Corcoran

A simple incident, this, but an al

it's the sort of thing that is worth
repeating just now when it is the
fashion to rail a bit at the French
mans love of gain and extraordinary
ability to "do" the American dough-
boy. A few months ago everything

a beautiful theory which, naturally
enough, couldn't stand the test Of

Curiously enough the ability to
drop in at the club rooms and do a
bit of sewing seems to appeal to the
average girl who frequents the place
more than any one thing. A few ex-
tracts from their letters OF apprecia-
ton and thanks tell their own story
and bring out this fact:
There is no other place in Wash

a bit of necessary sewing and find
