Between 12 th Street on the north and Eighth Avenue and Hudson Street on the sou th. Y'OU will notice by the map that it's an easy five short blocks from 14th Street and but four from Sixth Avenue. A 14th Street car with a transfer at Eighth Avenue lands you right at Abingdon Square ; an Eighth or Christopher Street car, changing at Hudson Street, drops you at the same place. A Ninth Avenue Ele- vated or surface car goes right by the back door of the Trowmart Inn — within easy walking Trowmart Inn distance, you see, of many of the big shops, offi ces and factories; accessible to all with a 5 -cent carfare* lVyT^^ any and every girl live at the Trowmart 1VX Inn f Not every girl, but almost every girl that earns not more than $10 or $12 a week can. This hotel was not built to make money for the builder. It is not merely a new hotel seeking to fill its rooms with anybody who can pay. It won't take women not working for their living. It doesn't want a woman who is earning so much that she can pick and choose her home. It is looking for the self-supporting girl, tired of the tawdry lodging room and sick of the miserable rookery to which her little salary has forced her to go. But while the hotel is not run to make money, it must pay its own way. Neither is it a charity — you must pay your own way. T ^LOW much^must I pay? $4.50 a week covers room, breakfast and dinner (at night) if two girls sleep in one room, ON 2 "-^ 3TORT 2oi — 2 A X • 3" • Sol — * A3 • -I ■ A..

And think what you get : every room is a light room, almost every one open- ing on to the street. The hotel, as the map shows you, is built on the corner of i 2 th Street, facing Abingdon Square, and runs the whole length of the block between Abingdon Square and Green- wich Street. This means open air, light, sun, trees, a bit of green grass. /^\N each floor having 50 rooms there are five bathtubs — first come, first served. Right alongside the tubs are ten washbasins with run- ning hot and cold water. If water that doesn't run unless you pour it, and water that isn't hot suits you just as well, why, then your own wash- stand with bowl and pitcher is in your room. Every hotel has that, you say. Here are some of the things every hotel has not : A SEWING ROOM open to any of you any time, day or night, with sewing machines, cutting tables, and a stove with pressing irons; all you have to provide is the thread, needle, bobbin, material and the ability to sew. Trowmart Inn npHERE is a library — not a large one, but with enough books and magazines to keep you busy for many winter evenings; and in the large parlor where there are piano and pianola, both unlocked — for use and not for ornament — you can have dances and games; and right near the large parlor are a number of little parlors, where your men and women friends can be with you when they choose and you choose. ' | A HE dining hall is a roomy place, high ceil- inged, lots of light, seating 250 at one time; but you haven't got to sit down all at one time. Breakfast will be served from 6.30 to 8.30; dinner same hours. On Sundays and holidays a lunch will be served for 1 5 cents. f I A HERE will be a resident woman physician, charging much less than the ordinary rates. H^HEN there is a laundry, also open day and night, with ironing facilities, porcelain tubs, running hot and cold water, and a steam-heated drying room, where clothes will dry almost while you wait. All you need to supply there is the soap. Trowmart Inn A RE there no restrictions then f Yes, one or two. You must be under thirty-five years of age and if you come to live you must give references ; but if you come for a night — no matter at what time of night — no questions will be asked why you come, from whence you come. Room costs 50 cents. There are not many transient rooms, though, so you'll have to take your chance and you'll have to walk to your room if you come after 1 1 o'clock- elevators close then. For further information apply to the management at the Inn any day or evening, including Sunday, when you will be shown the rooms and given all desired details.
