MARYS OF THE EMPIRE.
The home founded by the Queen of Whitstable out of the money presented by the “Marys of the Empire” upon the occasion of Her Coronation, is being put to an extended use. The home was built for the use of working girls in London' in need of change and sea air, but it has been found that -that accommodation is required only during the summer months Her Majesty, therefore, has given directions that for the remainder of each year the homo shall be set aside for the use of ladies in poor circumstances who are earning their living. Each is called upon to contribute towards her support at the rate of 12s weekly, and there has been so great a rush of applications for admission upon these terms that no more can possibly be considered for twelve months.
