ATLANTA. 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 In almost a universal sentiment In favor of thorough 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, tha 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 hearts and clean souls, the duties which poverty 1 entail—Is the establishment of comfortable board ing places, where tor a very reasonable sum the necessities can be secured and a few meager luxuries obtained, of course, hotels for working women havo sometimes tailed and discouragement has ensued with some well- known philanthropists. But there can be no more needed Institutions than homes for friendless girls and women, who muat labor generally for small wages, and should be protected against the temptations Incident to poverty und 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 yeamlnd 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 “Trowmart Inn,” will be opened for working girls and women. W. B. H. Marlin, 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 be admitted as boarders at this hotel. Women not self-supporting will not be received, and every working girl la not eligible as a guest. For 14.60 a week a girl, who Is content to room with another, obtains breakfast and dinner at the hotel. In addition to her room. For $S she ran have a room to herself. There are fifty large, airy rooms, most of them outside rooms, on each floor, .and five large balh rooms. On the ground floor are parlors, a large dining room with a lofty cell ing. which will seat 260 at a time; a library, a sewing room equipped with machines, cutting tables, a stove and pressing Irons—everything, In fact, but the needles and thread. A laundry In the basement, fltted 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. “1 had this structure built In my lifetime,” said Mr. Martin, who Is the principal stockholder In Rogers, Peet * Co, “because 1 did not want to make the mistake of many well meaning persons who leave such enterprises for executors and legatees who may or may not be In sympathy with the plan. It la too often the case that the work never la done. This building was not put up as an Investment. I am not expecting a cent's return from the property. But I will see that It Is self-supporting. "When I have 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 I 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 Is my Intention to reduce the present prices as soon as It Is feasible, I will be careful never lo 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 I to 6 o'clock at the home of the Young Women's Christian Association, 21-23 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 nn 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 placet to Atlanta, for the purpose of making their living, a clean, comfortable, Christian home. These women pay a nominal sum for board, and one of the requirements Is that they keep their rooms In order. The home Is 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 Thursdsy the friends of the Institution need not confine their gifts la table and bed linen, which the matron 1s 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 «o appeal lo the women of the city to donate table linen, bed linen, table scarfs 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 Ice 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 most 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 thalr gifts to the matron, Mrs. Passmore, 21-33 Cone street. charming guests of Mrs. A.
