Hostess houses aid soldiers families at wartime camps
An article outlines the wartime Hostess houses run by the Young Women's Christian Association. These centers provide hospitality, reception, cafeterias, and writing rooms for soldiers and visiting relatives at camps like American Lake, Camp Lee, Camp Meade, and Camp Cody. Architects are women, and housing for women workers is also being developed near industrial sites.
