Post

A young girl asks: when
mother has guests in for cards
which she often does, invariably
one of them can't get her regular
sitter for the children and I'm
asked to 60 sit. Now mother feels
that I should accept no payment
the people I'm sitting for are her
guests. Is mother right? I seems
a little unfair to me-"
If this happened only once or
twice in a whole season. think
your mother would be right. But
if you are obliged to give your
time-to say nothing of energy
almost as often as once a week, ]
think you should be permitted to
accept the pay of any other sitter
On the other hand it would not
do to ask to be paid if they take
for granted that you are sitting
for friendship.
Slocks for Motoring
Dear Mrs. Post: Is a long motor
trip a suitable time for a group
of women to wear slacks? We are
agreed that they would be more
comfortable.
Answer: While driving, certain.
ly. But if you are going to spend
any time in hotels you should
have a dress to change into.

forces yesterday to inaugurate the
38th year of the Junior League of
Washington.
Twelve past presidents of the
league - including founding
member and one of the original
incorporators-attended the an
nual fall luncheon held at the
Shoreham Hotel and each told
present-day members of the trials,
tribulations and triumphs of her
regime.
About $50 members and suS-
tanning members listened amazed
as Mrs. Smith Hempstone, the
leagues first president and a
founder, told of working with a
budget of $685. in 1914 and OF
establishing a summer camp in
Silver Spring for working women
Currently the league is sponsoring
a 100000 project of financing
the psychiatric clinic at Children's
Hospital for five years.
"It is wonderful to see the mag
nificent edifice you have built or
the foundations we began" Mrs
Hempstone told the group after
she mentioned the tiny budget
with which the league began its
work.
Mrs. A. Chambers Oliphant
second league president and ar
incorporation, recalled that money
for the leagues projects in hel
day was raised by the "Orienta
Ball'-which newspapers in 1915
described as the most elegant anc
exotic social event in Washington
| for many years.
The picture described by presi
dents throughout the years wa
one of growing strength and pub
lie service. Other presidents whit
spoke were Miss Virginia Hunt

members; Mrs. Sidney Thomas
who told of the league starting
the social service department a
