VICIOUS BULLS ARE SAFEST
Gentle Animal Is Cause of Most Trou.
BILE, Because Little or No Pre-
caution Is Taken.

The gentle bull has as many victims
as the gun that isn't loaded, or the
hunter who thought it was a deer"
It's the gentle bull that causes the
trouble in most cases. ''The bull had
never before shown an ugly DISPOSE
tiOn," says one clipping. ''The bull
had always been considered gentle"
says another; and so on through the
list. Because the victims thought the
bulls gentle, they took no precautions.
which leads us to say: Never trust a
gentle bull Better look down the
barrel of rife! "Bulls, like cold
storage eggs, should always be consid-
cred bad" a friend wisely said the
other day. Warning about vicious
bulls is seldom necessary, for nobody
trusts them.

girls arrived in Washington they dis
covered the highest war prices In the
country prevailing in the capital, and
found that it took every penny they
made merely to exist. Real comfort
and convenience was out of the Ques-
tion in the private rooming houses.
-Four girls in one room paying SIS u
month each, or $50 for the lot, was not
unusual. Of course, under such cir
cumstances they had to wait their turn
for most everything: to get into the
bathroom, comb their hair, unhoOk their
clothes from the single clothes hook,
and so on.
For their meals they just "ate
around" They waited on the corner
and saw car after car go by filed to
the last inch. When they finally sue
ceeded in getting a precarious fOothold
on car step, they rode for thirty min
utes jammed into a solid mass of hu-
manity. Then they sought breakfast
place downtown. If they went to an
order restaurant and succeeded in get
ting a table, the walters or Mattresses
were so rushed that often it was an
other thirty minutes before the girls
could be served. If they went to a
cafeteria they waited in a line for q
chance to serve themselves. Exhausted
and disgruntled, they would arrive at
their desks as near 9 o'clock as fate
and the facilities of the city Of Wash
ington permitted. At lunch it was the
same old wait, and at dinner, after a
day of pounding typewriter keys, or
working over columns of statistics or
filing letters, or filing out cards, they
stood In line again to wait their turn.
And when at last they reached their
rooms, crawled into their cot beds, and
found themselves sinking into forget
full slumber, they were almost sure to
be awakened by the return from the
movies or some other entertainment Of
one or more Of their partners in misery.
Something had to be done. So q
housing committee was appointed, and
when Uncle Sam announced that he
had the courage to undertake the con-
struction Of vast dormitory system
to be inhabited wholly by women it
was agreed that the experiment was
an epoch-making one.
President Wilson himself paused in
the midst Of his war-making to tour
Washington and personally select the
site upon which this "manless town"
was to rise. He looked all over the
available open spaces in and about the
park system of the capital, and after
due deliberation decided to place the
dormitories for the war workers on
the plaZas which connect the Capitol
and the Union station. And there they
stand today, two groups of buildings
containing twelve dormitories in each
group. In the center of each group is
an administration building where the
general manager has her office. Here

or not 800 women can live together in
perfect harmony. So far the answer is
in the affirmative, although in the be-
ginning there was just little doubt as
to the complete success of the expert
ment. However, as this rift IN the
lutte was due to the fact that a mere
man was made general manager OF the
plan, and as this same individual has
since been thrown out, bag and bag
gage, there now seems small danger
that things will not work out just as
they were intended to.
The subject of Uncle Sans unique
experiment is his war workers, and the
plan is the somewhat belated solution
Of housing them, problem which the
end of hostilities has not eliminated
by any means. For warWOrk is not
yet done, and war workers in Wash
ington are still too numerous for ade-
quate handling by WaShington's pri-
vate housing facilities AS a matter
Of fact, war workers come and go just
as in the days of the war, and each
week the statistics show an increase.
For every 1 200 war workers that leave,
1000 seem to come to take their places
and to further augment the govern
ment payroll.
This is said to be the first time an
attempt has been made to house so
many women together in q dormitory
system. Men have lived in barracks
since time immemOrial, but it has al
ways been admitted that men are SIM
pie things to handle and that the female
Of the species is more deadly than the
male. At any rate, Uncle Sam, having
conquered insurmountable problems
during the war, has had the courage to
set himself up as housekeeper for 800
young and unattached women.
He is even more than housekeeper,
for he has assumed the additional bur-
den Of chaperon, and the fact that he
allows the young women to have COM
pany in the parlor until II o. m. would
seem to indicate that he is q very
lenient one. AS matter Of fact, he
even allows his wards to remain out
until that more or less witching hour
without explanation or excuse But
that Is the dead line, and If Margaret
of the Army, or Alice Of the Navy ex-
poets to be out later than IL o'clock
she must give a reason for her alb
sence. If this reason is accepted her
name is put on the night list and given
to the watchman on duty, to whom she
ronOrts when she returns
Uncle Sans girl war workers re-
ceive from $1,000 to $1,4O0 year. OF
course that sounds like lot Of money
back in the home town, but when the
Arizona state miner., 1919-11-28

all business is conducted, here is the
registration desk and the general post
office.
The buildings are long, low, dark
gray stucco, three stories high. They
are in groups of three, forming US,
the central building of each group hav-
ing a recessed entrance porch framed
by fve arches, and f1anked by tall CO.
lon1al windows, with small white
cupola on top. These central buildings
contain reception rooms and writing
rooms for the use of the girls. These
rooms are spacious and airy, and on
entering one is impressed with the gen.
eral atmosphere of refinement and COM
fort that prevails. The furniture is
wicker and mahogany. A phonograph
has been furnished each building by
the government and the girls supply
the records. Some Of the dormitories
have pianos. These were purchased by
the girls themselves, a collection hav-
ing been taken up among them to raise
the money.
There are two dining rooms, one in
each group Of dormitories, located In
the administration buildings. These
dining halls are large and attractive,
having something of the air of sum-
mer resort, with seating capacity of
600. There are 100 tables in each room
with six seats at every table. The
guests are served by mattresses, and
sufficient number has been provided In
order that every waitress shall have
only two tables to wait upon.
The bedrooms are comfortable and
sanitary in every respect. Each Of the
single rooms is furnished with q bed,
writing table, cedar chest, which fits
under the bed; closet with separate
compartments above for hats, rugs,
and lavatory with hot and cold running
water. A few of the rooms are double,
in case two girls wish to live together.
These are provided with two beds, two
dressers, two closets, two cedar chests;
in fact, two everything All the bed
linen and towels are furnished by the
government, as is a reasonable amount
Of maid service. In each corridor a
telephone has been placed, and in every
room there Is call bell. A signal sys-
tenn has been arranged and posted, and
each room can be communicated with
in this manner. Some Of the signals
are: One bell, rise; two bells, come to
Office; three bells, caller waiting; four
bells, answer phone in hall. A bath
room containing one large tub and four
shower baths is in every corridor.
One of the most thoughtful things
Uncle Sam did when he erected these
dormitories was to provide washroom
in the basement Of each building, where
the girls can launder small things and
press their clothes. These rooms are
fitted with wash basins having hot and
cold running water, the latest patented
ironing boards and electric irons. An
up-to-date laundry, however, is main
tanned and run by the government
where they launder at cost for the
girls. Each building has trunk room
in the basement to avoid the necessity
Of keeping trunks in bedrooms.
