A Practical Charity
For Benefit of Women
The charities of this present period of generous donations generally take
a practical form of expression. The benefactions of the very rich have a
habit of finding their golden way Into the treasuries of schools and colleges.
There Is almost a universal sentiment In favor of thbrough educational ad
vantages for the great mass of American boys and girls. No one can dis
pute the need for such, benefactions, nor the ultimate good to be accom
plished by them. Donations to public libraries, the endowment of hospitals
and the establishment of orphan asylums evidence a broad and catholic
spirit befitting that beautiful charity which Is making the whole world
close of kin. But to many observers of the trend of the times, and of the
appealing needs of humanity, perhaps no manifestation of generous Im
pulse and of practical assistance seems more worthy and noble than the.
provisions being made by the kind-hearted men and women of large wealth
for self-respecting, energetic women, whose lives lay not always along
paths of ease and comfort.
The most successful plan thus far evolved for the benefit of women
who are homeless—yet meeting each day, with brave hearta and clean souls,
the duties which poverty entail—Is the establishment of comfortable board
ing places, where for a very reasonable sum the necessities can be secured
and a few meager luxuries obtained. Of course, hotels for working women
hav* sometimes failed and discouragement has ensued, with some well-
known phllanthroplals. But there can be no 'more needed institutions than
homes for friendless girls and women, who must labor generally for small
wages, and should be protected against the temptations Incident to poverty
and to colorless environment. -
To nearly every feminine heart a home Is essential. The womanly
craving for some especial place sacred above all others always finds ex
pression, sometimes amid the luxuries of a palace; sometimes In the nar
row confines of a hall bedroom. To satisfy this yearning for the better
things of life, and to provide at the same time for the physical needs of
working women, signify as much for the moral welfare of the nation as the
higher education of boys In the great universities.
In New York, August 1, a seven-story hotel, In Abingdon square, called
"Trowrnar! Inn,” will be opened for working girls and women. W. R. H.
Martin, the owner of this philanthropic experiment, will have personal su
pervision of it, until he has demonstrated that It can be conducted along
the lines he has planned for It. The cost of “Trowmart Inn" was several
hundred thousand dollars. Only women under thirty-five years of age will
bo admitted as boarders at this hotel. Women not self-supporting will not
be received, and every working girl Is not eligible as a guest.
For 14.50 a week a girl, who Is content to room with another, obtains
brsakfast and dinner at the hotel, In addition to her room. For $5 she can
have a room to herself. There are fifty large, airy rooms, mdst of them
outside rooms, on each floor, and five large bath rooms.
On the ground floor are parlors, a large dining room with a lofty cell
ing, which will seat 250 at a time; a library, a sewing room equipped
with machines, cutting tables, a stove and pressing Irons—everything, In
fact, but the needlee and thread.
. A laundry In the basement, fitted with porcelain t-bs, Ironing facilities,
running hot and cold water and steam heated drying rooms,, makes It
possible to do personal laundry work with minimum labor.
There Is to be a resident woman physician, whose charges will be
moderate.
A few rooms for transients are to be let at 60 cents a night.
"I had this structure built In my lifetime,” said Mr. Martin, who Is the
principal stockholder In Rogers, Peet & Co., “because I did not want to
make the mistake of many well meaning persons who leave such enterprises
for executors and legatees who may or'inay not be In sympathy .with the
plan. It Is too often the case that the work never Is done. This building
was not put up as an Investment. 1 am not expecting a cent’s return from
the property. But I will see that It Is self-supporting.
"When I huve demonstrated that Trowmart Inn can be run without loss
at the price which the young women will be charged for rooms and board,
It Is my Intention to turn It over to a board of trustees. If they find they
cannot run It without a loss 1 can simply show them my books, to prove
that It has been done.
“There will be no discrimination against any girl who applies for ad
mission to the Inn because of her religion,” continued Mr. Martin. "Nor
will the management Insist upon any set rules of deportment. The young
women will have almost the freedom they would enjoy In any large hotel.
"While It 1s my Intention to reduce the present prices as soon as It Is
feasible, I will be careful never to make them so low that employers can
use them as a plea for reducing the wages of their girl employees."
Worthy Cause That Needs
Help From Atlanta People
The linen shower to be held Thursday afternoon from 8 to 8 o'clock at
the home Af the Young Women's Christian Association, 81-88 Cone street,
should be of vital Interest to every man and woman In the city. The object
of the shower Is to give the friends of this Institution an opportunity to
co-operate with the matron In making an attractive home for the thirty
young women who live there. This Institution Is a branch of the Young
Women's Christian Association, and Is conducted solely for the purpose of
giving a number of young women who come from other places to Atlanta,
for the purpose of making their living, a clean, comfortable, Christian home.
Then women pay a nominal sum for board, and one of the requirements Is
that they keep their rooms In order. $
The home la at present In need of a great many things to make It at
tractive; for Instance, there are no pictures hung on the walls, and rocking
chairs are very scarce. At the linen shower Thursday the friends of the
Institution need not confine their gifts to table and bed linen, which the
matron Is working so hard to get In order to keep the home.clean, but also
can send pictures, chairs, rugs or anything that will go to make a com
fortable room. Of course, the real object Thursday Is to appeal to the
women of the city to donate table linen, bed linen, table acarfs and such ar
ticles. One well-known philanthropist In the city has sent to this home
every Sunday for the past six weeks seven quarts of lea cream, thus pro
viding a delightful treat for the energetic young women, whose lives are
necessarily so limited. The thoughtfulness, generosity and genuine Chris
tianity manifested.In this gift of Ice cream by one of Atlanta's mogt promi
nent and philanthropic bankers should prove-an Inspiration to other men
and women of wealth In the city.
All those who cannot attend the shower can easily send their gifts to
the matron, Mrs. Passmore, 31-88 Cone street.
