BUSINESS AND PROFESSIONAL
WOMEN TO HOLD EXPOSITION
Will Show How Fair Workers Can Be Trained
For Various Positions.

maintaining a home is the most Diff
ficult of all and the one that is least
regarded as needing a training. So
we decided to show the public just
what women are doing today In the
business and professional world.
Our women's activities exhibit,
therefore. will be built around a
definite keynote and will not con-
sist of a heterogeneous display of
exhibits that have been brought in
merely TO I'LL up the space. We
have taken the entire ballroom
floor of the Commodore Hotel and
divided II into definite sections. The
east ballroom will be entirely de-
voted to the various lines of cleo
trical devices and appliances with
which women are connected in
business or professional way. The
west ballroom will be devoted to
the work women are doing In arts
and crafts, as well as to a beauti-
full textile division that will show
the interest and the influence busi-
ness and professional women exert
in the textile world. A fashion show
that will emphasize the fact that
business and professional women
have absolutely influenced and revo-
lutionized the fashion market of the
past few years will be put on to
show proper business and social
gowning Of business women"

The New York League of Business
and Professional Women. Inc. of
New York. has announced a new
note in the progress of women by
putting on an exposition Of woman's
activities at the Hotel Commodore,
in New York, on September 1928.
which will be the contribution of
this group of representative bust
ness and professional women to the
education Of the general public as
to the status of women in the busi-
ness and professional world.
The paramount thought back Of
the exposition will be to compile in
a panorama the various vocations
open to women and the best man
ner and place in which the younger
business women may be properly
trained for them. The New York
league is afiiliated with a National

sional women's clubs that believes
that every girl should be thorough

which the league holds to be the
biggest job of all, or for a job in
an office.
Mrs. lima winchell Stacy, who is
the second vice president of the
club and successful business
woman, achieved her business sue
cess long after she was wife and
mother. She was made the bread
winner of her home as well as the
home maker when her husband
died and left her as the sole sup
port of her family. She had been
trained to no profession.
"Our league Is made up of 500
women who have had experiences
somewhat similar to mine" said
Mrs. Stacy. I'VE all believe that
the solution of the business prob
lem Is the training of our young
women Of today. because a good
business woman will make a good
wife and mother. The business of

manuscript for Maj. Thompson's
new book Is transformed into the

The author. who belongs to the
Cavalry I'd. o. L. and is stationed
at Fort Sam Houston, Tex, is en-
deavoring to incorporate within 1t
fun information regarding the
birth, parentage, education. frater-

say a full account of the history
of his Immediate family.

Directory are complete in them
selves, but they certainly do not
cover the field outlined by Maj.
Thompson. He is at present send
ing out questionnaires to all offi-
GERS concerning whom information
Is lacking, and II Is to be hoped
that they will respond in a way
which will enable him to make the

Maj. Thompson is a Washington
man, the son of Mrs. Flora McDon-

of literary work and Is one OF
washington's prominent women
along several lines. Elizabeth
Chase Thompson is the daughter Of
Mrs. volney Chase. whose late hus-
band was a captain in the navy

war. His death came shortly after
Eiizabeth's marriage. which was a
very large and brilliant occasion.
Her sister. Susanne Chase. who is
real beauty and who has made
several successes on the stage, is
spending the summer in Washing

GUARDIAN OF ROYAL
PLATE GIVES UP JOB

After goodness knows how many
years of service the official guar
dian Of the royal collection Of gold
plate has retired from his Job. The
intrinsic value OF that plate Is es-
timated at s5.ooo,o0o.
Now that the marshal Of the
household. or someone OF that sort.
is looking around for an honest
and faithful successor to the guar
dianship IL is interesting TO recall
that Engisnd's royal plate is prob
ably more safely guarded than any
thing else in the world. not except
ing the crown Jewels. It's usual
resting place is in the base OF the
Princes of Wales tower at Wind
sor Castle, where II is deposited IN
specially constructed steel vaults
These vaults are said TO be abso-
lutely freproof. Similar vaults are
provided for the plate in Bucking-
