J; Just how the womuu who works jj l1511 ct simitar environment on $8.43 a i\7 - ' 1 ,f Hi- ;Ua Plnco ,s demonstrated by n report mado on tho Junior Lcnguo Hotel, located at East Knd Avenue and 78th. ;Sstreet. This rato Includes two meals &a day nnd three on Sunday.

P\. And tho example Is likely to bo fo- llowed by similar hotels for women at \the rates mentioned. I went all through this hotel and Sthcn walked over a few blocks along \tho same frontage of tho East Itlvor \Into Sutton Place, where millionaires \arc building their houses, and, except \for the cost of furnishing In the latter, I can see no advantngo as to locality .that tho woman of wealth has us ..iigulnst tho working woman at tho Junior League Hotel. Tho name, by j. th? Way, Is somewhat misleading, us .there aro no young people under slx-- ; teen. ' , There are 338 guests, exclusively tjwomcn, and some of them havo been there for eleven years. There Is ah ways a good sized waiting list, and ',that Is why some, of tho real- - cstato ..concerns urc looking nto this proposl-'tlo- n In view of tho nexv housing plans. This six-stor- fireproof structure with elevator, fuces tho Eaast Ulver, ' Just am Sutton Placo does. There aro large porches, a roof garden and such pother attractions as aro enjoyed by 'lho more wealthy neighbors of tho v- icinity. And tho women who live In this hotel comprise nearly every nationa- lity, and as to religion includo Frot-- , icetants. Catholics and Jews. They come from1 almost every kind Tof occupation, such as governess, clcrk, stenographer, teacher, student, .accountant, librarian, writer, nurse, ,f bookkeeper, dressmaker, Ac.

And Jjvhcn I asked tho question, \Do they .come there,?\ tho housekeeper In- formed mo smilingly,. \JuBt como pome evening and sec.'' I had luncheon there in the spa cious dining room and looked through several of the menus. All I can say iis that I cannot see how any woman 'jero wunts for anything In the way ;f food, slnco the meals aro so nnd served very attractively. T One o fthe things that struck mo (na of especial interest In this \purely 'business proposition\ Is the fact that Jt.ls all run by women.
