close buying when Mrs. Myatt ac- tually gives girls a square meal for from Is to 20 cents.
 If I can do that I am helping many a girl to be self-sustaining.
 You see, we do not figure to make any money on our lunch room at all. We figure only to cover expenses"
 The Finest Woman
 I asked Mrs. Myatt what kind of woman she considered was the finest type in the world. Her reply was:
 "The woman who has considera- tion for the other fellow 1 do not like the attitude some people take of What is that to me?' with regard to the other persons troubles or mis- fortunes.
 "It should be something to every one of us whether those around us gre happy or sad or crushed-or are carrying burNens almost too hard to bear alone"
 If we love one another as God has issued a command for us to do, we will find that we can no longer be indifferent to the lives that touch ours.-
 There's lots of merriment at the lunch room.
 For instance, the girls have in- vented happy phraBe which Is cal culated to get every dish taken oack to the open window by the diners.
 The china Is thus taken back so as to eliminate overheadt expense The old timers will call gaily out to strange girls:
 If you don't take your dishes by the kitchen window you will be an old maidr'--and since few want 10 risk this chance, or merrily pretend they do, the cook gets the dishes Al the earliest moment.
 Then there are many jokes. happy stories and "reminiscences.
 HeIpfuIness
 There Is also a pretty spirit oi heipfuipess which the girls show to a newcomer. They will offer to show her around. take her to the menu which is written on blackboard on the wall, and instruct her how to proceed, cafeteria style, to the win dow where she obtains her meal This is a great help to Mrs. Myatt and because 1t is helpful. the girls Ike to do 1t since their attention pays her back in a slight way. TOT her never -flagging thoughtfuines' for their comfort.
 This successful business woman who Is quiet and soothing and com fortins, has made the lunch room the same way. For 1t Is not in glarihs white. which Is so tiresome ant straining to the eyes, but 1t Is all n dark green. Even the tables Ars painted that way. The living room in a shadowy, cool spot. The coucn IS not covered with glaring white linen. It, too, is dark and restfui.
 Has Same Help
 Mrs. Myatt has retained ner serV- ants-all except ono who oieo- ever since she has been there. A short time ago when she received flatter!ng offer from a local college to take charge of its dining room her servants announced that they wanted to go with her, too.
 But Mrs. Myatt's heart is east with the W. c. T. 1.-the lunch room IS product of her own energy and plan ming. and so she remained with 1t T came right hero from my own home-have never been anywhere else. I feel I am needed and that our organization Is doing great good What more could one ask? So wouldn't go."

Dy HIGNON HALL

Lots of times maybe you've said to yourself:
 Land. don't wish there was some little spot in this big old dusty city where l could slip away and eat my lunch and lie down for few min Gtes"
 But no place seemed to suggest it. self but a hotel, and that cost so blooming much!
 It has been left for Mrs. J. A. Myatt to make just such a little cozy rest and lunch room for the girls of this city down at W. c. T. U. headquarters. It has taken her five years and a half to do the work. but it is well done. and the success of her under takings has put her in the class with the most successful women of the city.
 Very Little Space
 She Is secretary and general man ager of tho lunch room. When she took charge of 1t. all the space she had was 16x16 grill. and Kitchen. We could accommodate just about IS girls" Mrs. Myatt related, con cerning that time. Now we have from 300 to $50 each day for lunch. You could imagine we have had to increase the space, until. like the
 
 head ain at the door, we have en- tered entirely and crowded out those office renters who were here. We have two floors"
 Mrs. Myatt laughed:
 We literisly pushed them out because we couldn't help ourselves. After the tenants saw that we had girls even sitting on the steps, they volunteered to give us the space. They were most generous with us.
 However, our dream some day is to have a regular woman's hotel right down town-and the W. c. T. G Is not going to stop until we realize that much needed thing"
 Mrs. Myatt dominates the ". C. T. U. lunch room like lovely red shaded light dominates living room and makes it sweet and honey.
 Her Way
 No matter what time you go, she has a smile for you, and some little word like this:
 "I missed you yesterday--what was the trouble?"
 .Oh my. what a pretty new dress you're wearing. You look mighty sweet in that
 "You're now girl here, aren't you? Awfully glad you have come" Mrs. Myatt is never too tired to think of you, your comfort, your sor- rows. your pleasures-and most of all she becomes interested in you if you should appear trifle i'll. For by profession she is a trained nurse, md she never forgets that shes can use this knowledge to help relieve suf- fering.
 Now come in here and lie down." she will say, "I'll give you a bit of spirits of ammonia Cor some other little remedy) and you'll be all right in a little while.,'
 If, however, the case Is more se- were sshe sends the girl to a physi- elan.
 In this way she Is really daily

MRS. J. A. MYATT

Keeping girls from becoming Ill., keeps girls from losing their jobs In this respect Mrs. Myatt might be called the stitch in time that saves nine. This makes her an untold benefit to public health and to the smooth running of business ma chinery.
 She really takes personal inter est In every woman who comes to the W. c. T. U.
 Rules for Success
 When I asked Mrs. Myatt to what she attributed her success as an ex- ecutive and dietian, she said.
