HOTEL O

Is there not something cheerless and barren about a hotel
room? No matter how fine the hotel may be hotel rooms are
lacking in warmth and coziness. Haven't you invariably
found them so?
Fortunately, the only time the majority of people spend
any length OF time Ill a hotel room is during their summer
vacation. And one doesn't stay in ones room much of the
time then, you say. That is true to be sure. Ones summer
vacation days are filed with tramps through the woods, pic
MICS, fishing parties, excursions, bathing or long lazy after
moons on the beach.
There is unfortunately the. inevitable rainy day, or the
occasional hour when a rest in ones room seems more desira-
bic than the great outdoors. How shall one add to the cheer
OF the room, and make it seem more homelike and natural, so
that the maximum of rest, happiness and relaxation can be
derived from ones summer vacation?
Try slipping in your trunk the flower vase you particu-
lary like, the little favorite picture of yours that hangs on
the wall by your bureau, the pictures of the children that stand
on your desk at home, or perhaps the sofa cushion that al
ways seems to just fit your back in your favorite rocker. All
little things that can be tucked in your trunk, but you will be
surprised how much they will add to the cheer and nominees of
your otherwise barren hotel room.
We all know that a pleasant atmosphere is created by
little things. Tangibly speaking, that is never more true
than in this question of hotel rooms. A touch of home in the
form of a fimiliar vase, or a loved picture can Immediately
create a honey and happy atmosphere. Prove it next vacation
season for yourself.

1t is the desire of the Girl Scouts
TO enlighten further the people of
Perth Amboy, and the vicinity along
the lines of Scouting. The girls arc
taught how to make hospital beds
and how TO take care of the sick. All
are striving to obtain the handy
woman's badge, which betoken's
ability in caring for the home, such
as mending pots, thawing uut froz-
en- pipes and making themselves
generally useful around the home.
Girl Scouts are expected to study
the civics of the community and
learn of those things which directly
affect its welfare. Nothing could
be of greater value, than this in pre-
paration for future citizenship. At
the rally, which is to be held Tues
day evening, May 1, at 1880 o'clock.
at the high school auditorium, this
kind of work will be demonstrated
by the girls.
Special instruction is given in saw
ing people from drowning and the
methods Of life resuscitation. The
manner. of rescuing people from
burning buildings is especially stress
ed upon. The Girl Scouts are anx-
ious to inform the public
ing their work and the people, in
general are invited to attend their

He Fears His Fate
By LORA KELLY

A millionaire elevator manufac-
turer ome to bat in the public

over women, particularly in the mat
ter of debate.
In rejecting the challenge OF a
Vassar graduate to discuss any sub
ject" with him. he announced that
the poor simpletons haven't got the
power to debate.
Women haven't got the reasoning
power that men have" he continued.
II discuss anything logical
with m Theyscan talk straight

go off the handle"
Then just why, Mr.. Superior Male,
do you fear to clash wits with the
lady who is generous enough to give
you the choice of subjects?
Certainly she a be accused of nc
Interior motive than that of sheer
justification of her sex's ability. II
you are such a world beaten in the
public forum, why do you not seize
this opportunity to prove it instead
of Dragging about it in the market
place?
We have a sneaking idea that you
are just a bit afraid of that clever
feminine tongue. We believe that you
fear you will come out second best in
the argument, even though the SUBJ
ject has been your own choice. AT
any rate, I'VE poor simpletons'' would
like to have you show US how it
should be done. Maybe we can learn,

Talking is one of the fine arts to

There is nothing much wrong

and fourteen water, one ounce OF
sugar. She may haze a few drops OF
orange juice in a teaspoon OF boli-
ed water one hour before the sec

until the baby is taking n tea

water. This is helpful for the eonstip--
