BOY'J,
favorable to u? and our projects. It
moit 'naturally .follow? that we, a
band of women, and most of us moth-*
ers, fighting fpr the good of our's and
others children should feel very
grateful to these men and a bit hard
to those who have expressed only
condemnation of us and all our move
meats. *
However, we will let that pass for
what It 1b worth and tell you of a
new project, which we have on foot,
at the present time. And wo won Id*
add that this U no new thing either
as other assocUtloqs have talked of
It and hoped for It but always for one
cause or another It has fallen through
This 1b the securing and fitting up ol
a room for the use of the town worn
en assuredly, but also for the 'use of
the wproen who come ^Into town,
either aa strangers waiting between
trains and the women who come In
from the country with their husbands
ThU Is a work of women for women
and every public spirited woman eith
er a member of our union or not must
feel the, impulse and the Joyful de
sire to help In this good movement.
We not only expect to make this
room useful as a rest room but we
Intend to have in it good books and
all the current magaslnes do
any woman or girl who so desires
may drop In this room at any time
and read.
We rejoice that Washington has
hi It so many good, public spirited
men, without their aid we are prac
tically crippled ? being only women,

respectable opera house and then
Washington will have shows that are
creditable and praiseworthy.
