'CESSFUL BUSINESS SWOAGANOFBLRD1NGH

time, with the clubs most efficient and charming industrial secretary, Miss Frances Bomar.
 The club seeks to develop a four fold side of girls life-mental. rhysical, social and religious, and mighty good times are had during the winter days with all sorts of meet ings of various clubs the girls have or ganized among themselves. Shortly after the war, Sl0,000 w1s given for this club room work by the war workers council As all of this was spent>to make the club habitable, you can imagine it is very pretty. Even oak floors were put in. and .o- Gether the r. w. c. A. and the Bus iness and Professional Women's club occupied the location until both cllbs grew too big. Thus the removal of the latter club to its own pretty quarters.
 Club Supplies Demand
 Club rooms count for great deal in girls lives" Mrs. Hawkins told me. "EquaIly as much as they do in mems lives. It is our duty to make our club a place girls will love to come to- Besides that, do feel the club has been instrumental in giving girls a broader outlook on things. For instance. there are ire quently very animated conversations concerning everything from politcs to South African stubble. Such dis- cussions are very informing, dad usually wind up that authority is ex- acted on some points, and that actual and valuable knowledge has come into our possession,
 We have the loveliest sort CT girls. I'm just crazy about them. And you'll find types of women or girls here most any time during lunch hour whom you will actually enjoy. Many fast friendships are formed through our club; and women down town shopping like to lunch here be- cause they get away from the rush and hustle of commercial hubbub. We have plenty of space and its quiet.
 "we study in our club. as well as play, too. For there are so many things we all want to know"
 What Girls Like
 Getting back to. good things to eat, Mrs. Hawkins related that girls seemed to adore salads more than almost anything else. They were also awfully fond of chicken la king, which-think of this--you can pur- chase at the ". w." along with a vegetable, for the enormous outlay Of Is cents. A very nice lunch for 20 cents includes a meat, a vegetable, a drink and bread. Desserts are 10 cents. and there are all sorts, fancy, plain, frllled, elaborate.
 Summing up, Mrs. Hawkins said she felt that she had "got by" at the Y. W. c. A. lunch room because she had kept strict account of just how many "boarders'' she had to feed; ordered enough for them, and then made her money stretch to cover an emersency. Notice the modesty ot ..got by" when most everybody will tell you that Mrs. Hawkins has made nothing less than magnificent showing.
 sTry to please appetite and eye; know that all food elements are pres ent in your menus; try to make the menus different every day. If your experience shows you certain thing is wrong. remedy that. Not only cater to taste, but to good health. Whatever you serve. cook it right and make it taste we'll For you might buy the best foods on earth, but if they weren't prepared nor seasoned right, they would be peither good nor wholesome for the body"

UNDERWOOD DENIES
 CHARGES OF OPPONENTS

By Associated Frees
 Washington, July 29.-Senator Un- dcrwood disclaimed Any intention of embarrassing administration nego- tiations for a mixed claims treaty, stating that he did not know when he introduced his bill that there were any negotiations in progress,
 Tt certainly was not generally known at that tlme," the senator added. We had waited patiently for the government for more than a year after the signing of the Ber- lin treaty, and it certainly was req sonab1e that bill should be intro duced to protect tho rights of Amer ican citizens"
 Hughes Objects
 You undoubtedly appreciate" Mir. Hughes said in his memorandum. that, in addition to the difficulties, which as q result of political and economic conditions, have confronted tho nations with which the United States was associated in the war In affecting settlements of claims against former enemy countries.
 The government of the United States was obliged to deal with con- ditions incident to the conclusion of treaties with Germany. Austria and Hungary to re-establish friendly re- lations with those nations.
 "Following the conclusion of such treaties, negotiations were entered Into with Germany looking to the adjustment of the claims of our citi- zens. It was contemplated that a mixed commission, on which Germany will have representation, will be es- t@ blished to determine the amounts of these claims in accordance with the procedure usually governing mat ters of this kind.
 T am glad to say that despite the recent difficulties in Germany which have delayed the comple- tion of the arrangements, gratifying progress has been made, and l be- iieve that a satisfactory convention will be signed shortly. It is mani- fest that legislation such. as that con- templateds by the bill in question would be embarrassing to the execu- tive in dealing with the matter of these claims, since the enactment of the bill into law would make 1t nec- essary to abandon present plans"

 Possibly a score'sof factories to- day have their own laboratories In which scientists are working with trained personnel making slight, kl- tcrafions in machines or motors. the chamber says in statement giver out in this city These. men are no. seeking to produce something radical but rather to improve the types which have justified the basic prin- ciples on which they were built.
 Approximately 500 civilians are taking lessons in flying at civilian aviation fields this summer. The chaber estimates that there are 1,2o0 civilian owned and operated aircraft in the country today.
 The average charge per passengc: a year and half ago was 65 cents a mile. Last year 1t was 55 cents and it is believed that the average this year will be about 50 cents There has been slight increase ir terminal facilities SO far this year

Here's a young woman who has. on her own responsibility, the spend- ing of between 3300 and S4oO per week.
 Don't you know 1t takes a mighty level head to do that properly?
 But she's making remarkable success of it.
 Mrs. Florence Peebles Hawking that's who she iF-is the beautifully sweet, understanding, wonderful bit of person who always gives you a cheering smile-and lots of times ,he squeeze of soft hand---when you 20 to the Y. W. c. A. lunchrooms.
 Now it's called the Blue Triangle club--for blue is always the girls color, you know.
 She is director of the tea room.
 Most scared me to death when I took my job" confided Mrs. Hawkins. T literally tackled it with fear and trembling. All that food to be bought ali the kitchen to look after menus to provide, But I gave my inner mind strict orders that I had to make good-that we had to think our way right to brass tacks.
 And that's what we're still trying to do."
 Hard Job
 Don't let anybody fancy that such job gets easier all the time. Ii doesn't. While the lunchroom is not supposed to make money, 1t must be self supporting; there is a new prob lem every day, and as the markets vary from time to time, intimate care must be taken to stay within bounds. And then nothing must be wasted. and attention must always be given that everything Is wholesome and fresh. Beyond all that, Mrs. Haw- kins feels very keenIy:
 Girls who work must be well rourished. Besides that, they should have place to patronize where good cheer reigns. There Is nothing more conducive to good health and dises- ton than merrlment And so I often ask myself, and I do it so wistfully. too: Has everything about the lunch room been so happy today that even the bluest girl who might ever come here would feel she had won fine courage and strength to go on with life's tasksT I am so anxious always that this little place. which really is my home, be like that.
 T hate q somber club room and I feel everybody else must, too. Of course there are times when we all Just want to clump down and rest SN'tAN AANA St hAA WI NHal sue or our work. we have put some little cots here where the girls can lie down."
 Rest-awhile
 And Mrs. Hawkins led the way down the hall past a big comfy kitchen to show the snowy expanse of cots, with their soft pillows. Looked like sleepy time to me, and so good.
 Long every morning before some of us are up Mrs. Hawkins Is down at the markets buying table supplies while the. dew is still almost upon them. And as she picks around she Is thinking:
 T wonder if this would tempt the girl who Is tired of most evefything else to eat--and the girl who really Is too tired almost to want anythina at all"
 If homely vegetable doesn't re- spond yes to such anxious question: ing, Mrs. Hawkins leaves 1t right where it is.
 She must have the best, and pro. vide 1t within a luncheon expendj. ture of from 25 to 35 cents.
 That's as much money as the aver age girl spends for lunch, and she

 Senator Underwood is quietly awaiting the report of the commit tee to which his bill has been re- ferred.f If the committee reports the bill he will be governed accordingly, but should the committee at the in- stance of the administration kill the bill as is likely he will carry the fight with great force to the floor.
