MORE DWELLINGS. The bullding report for last week shows a turn in the character of work contemplated, and the change is for the better. Recently it was reported that mest of the permits issued wepe for chicken coops, which indicated a more general intention te use eggs for foed instead of meat, and for garages, sug- gesting that the present conditiens, so much complained of, had not made a deep impression upon the finances of automobile owners. Of the 28 permits issged last week seven were for dwellings to be con- structed at a cost of $52,750, and only five for garages, te cost $6,700. The other permits were for improvements, additions, re-roofing. i While the analysis of the bulldi for only one weék Pproves nothing, it is another of the eyidences that come occasionglly that even hard times’ cloud has a silver lining. Build- ing material and laber have dropped 25 per cent. The need of more dwellings will exist for sometime to come, and will be accentuated as work becomes moye plentifull. Every report therefore of in- creased building activity, which takes the form of more dwellings should encourage. ! e ——— COST OF LIVING. The deductions of Dr. W. B. Moshaer, of the New York Bureau of Municipal Reséarchigsed on the cost of lving in Npw fm,&re that a #ingle man can get along en less than 3 single woman. i Immediately there comes the thought of dress, when the cest of a man’s living is compared with that of a woman. It is the popular idea that in this regard a woman spends far more than a man. The idea is especial- ly prevalent among husbands. According to the data obtained, it is declared that a single man may live on $1,093.68, while a single wom- an needs $1,118.08 a year. And accordipg to the figures a single woman is allowed $28 @ year more for dress than a man. Taking these figures as @ basis it may be seen that the single woman may properly spend oR dress just about the amount of the difference her cost of living and that of a man. If the station in life to which the man and the woman aye called permits of their spending more say five times as much, the women have a right if these deduction are correct, to spend five times $28 more than a single man in the same posi- tion. In other words were the cost of dressing properly the same in the ase of the man and the women, their permissible vyearly living expenses would be practically the same. It should be remembered that these are supposed to be practical and fair. No alowance is supposed to be made for the innate fondness for pretty things that possesses the woman to a greater degree than the man. The figures tell what a man and a woman may get along on with due economy without ostentation or a sur- render to foolish desires in the matter of living So, if the single woman spends no more than the amount represented by the ratio of that $28 to her total ex- pense of living, above the ameunt spent by a man in the same position, no one may complain that she is xtragagant As a basis of argument among who are not single, the data be considered. report between figure people may “‘Item Left Out of the State Budget,"’ Now isn't that too bad.

Schenectady, N. Y., June 13.—The world waits impatiently for the ending of the mad dance of death that has John W. Davis, former ambassador to Great Britain declared today before the 125th graduating class of Union college. “In the meantime,” he continued, ‘‘any compromise with the Bolshevik creed is but a league with death. Be- overtaken unhappy Russia, “tween such doctrines of class rule and class hatred and those which have made America there is a gulf as wide as that between truth and falsehood, right and wrong, life and death.’” Mr. Davis® address was given after he was given the honorary degree of doctor of laws and the honorary dezree of master ot arts was conferred upon Maud Adams, actress, the first woman to receive an honorary degree from Union college. 5 The former ambassador chose for the subject of his remarks ‘‘Americanism.’’ ‘“True Americanism,’’ he said, ‘‘does not lie in loud leclamation or noisy rhetoric; not in boasting of our power and grandeur, or parading before man- kind our own self righteousness. It does not consist in a vast contempt fop other nations or rude discourtesy in private or official circles. There is no real patriotism in bad manners. One may even be a good American without insisting that none but American flags shall be carried in patriotic parades.’ Docal Man to Wed Bristol Woman. Young The engagement of James V.
