Distinguished Stranger"
 Rank Sought by Women

LONDON, March 4. English women, who can vote, sit in Par lament and hold Cabinet port folios, now seek the right to be Distinguished Strangers.
 Thirteen of the IA women mem bers of the House of Commons have signed a letter to the House Speaker, pointing out that, while women are admitted to the public gallery of the House on equal terms with men, the Distinguished Strang- CTS gallery still is barred to them.
 Why, they want to know, isn't a distinguished woman as distin- guished as distinguished man?
 The inequality" of the gallery of the illustrious, they say, fre- quently causes them embarrassment when they are visited in the House of Commons by distinguished wom- en from England or abroad.

NEW YORK, April II IN.SD

working as bus boy in a promi-

Certainly, why note" he re
piled to a question. This is the
best way in the world to learn
the hotel business. Some day l
expect to take over my fathers
house"
The boy is Alrik Schedin, %,
and he has an arrangement with
the management of the hotel
where he is employed whereby he
will advance, although treated no
differently than any other en-
ploye. through the positions of
bus boy, waiter, bell captain,
room clerk, and assistant to the
manager.
Alrik has already decided that
American hotels are far differ
ent from those in his native land.
American hotels are conducted
on such a huge scale that indi-
vidual hospitality such as many
European hotels are noted for is
not possible" he said, "and this
describes the chief difference be-
tween them.
I'm this country you are great
for mixing" young Schedin said.
"You mix fruits for salads, for
cocktails, for desserts and even
for quenching your thirst. In
Sweden we may eat an apple or
a pear, but we eat them Singly, -
we don't cut them and mix them
together"
