S commissioner general of immigration takes occasion to allay whatever of public anxiety mav have baen occasioned by recent rumors that from a million to two million aliens are about to leave this country for ®o0d, taking about five billion dollars m money with them. He calls such reports just plain “hysteria,” and #ays they have no foundation in fact He deciares that not much more than one hundred thousand foreigners have left the country since the armistice was signed. snd he prophecies that conditions in the European countries will send many of them back here again In the five years since June 30, 1914, w®hich included only one month of pre-war conditions. 172678 immi- grants arrived in this country. while the Qepartures numbered only 618223, leaving a met gain of 554.455 remain- g here. There is at present an ex- &ese of emisration. b in part considered seasona The curious fact is made known tha the five vears ending June 30, 1913. 1.363.000 alien emigrants ieft the country. rather more than double the number of de- sartures during the five-vear period ending last June The prospect would not seem oe inviting for a return to Burepe ts alsturbed ecomomic situation the “ormal increase here from. immi gration foes not ~eir to ba in dan- nv serious check by any gre reigners from these shore nds thev left.

In the five years prior to 1913 Ger- many made an annual appropriation | for ber armament averaging $420,000,- 800. The appropriation for the army of 675000 men was 3250.080.000. The balance was spent for incidentals of the militacy program The peace treaty cuts the German army to 200.860 men. thus saving the Getman people an annual charge of $197.600.000. Assuming that her pres- ent naval program will require $20, 000,080 ammually, there is another sav- strike as feeling that the ing of $100.000,000. Incidental mili- tary expenditure should ecasily be cut to $10.000.080. thus saving another 310,000,000 year. The 475,000 men freed from military service cah save, as wage earners, $300 2 year each. or $142500,000. They il bring te invested capital a profit of &t least $T89 each a year, or a total of $61.750800.

In its plans for dweilings for the working classes, it has eliminated the bath room from some of the designs, substituting a “parlor.” Reason given for this by the chairman 1s: "Our young folks must have some piace to do their courting” Obviously. a bath room is mo place for spooning. and court- | ship is g custom much older and more firmly established even than that of bathing. It persists among Some tribes who never bathe, vet it is con- cetvable that facilities provided, the two practices might be indulged with- out (he one interfering with the other. The bath room has never been an ex- cessively popular institution amongst the lower class of the British, however strongly the upper classes may be wedded to the “tub.” Sir Walter Be- sant. reviewing the results of the model tenement house campaign in the East End of London something like a quarter of a century ago. re- cords how the fixtures had been re- moved in the bath room and traded for heer. while the tubs were used as receptacles for coals. Still, with a lit- tle persuasion and the opportunity always at band, it is not unreasonable to think that the coming geéneration of Englishmen might be taught to ap- preciate the pleasures as well as the advantages afforded by a bath tub. When our own country comes to take up the matter of housing seriously, as it must in due time. we earnestly hope the “parior, bedroom and bath™ will prevail. AMERICANIZATION EDUCATION. Secretary Lane of the department of the interior proposes to combat revolutionary possibilities in America with education.

Among all the birds at the feeding box I have only seen one that showed a trait of this kind. Yesterday 1 saw one among a flock of sparrows that took large pieces of food and dropped them in- fo the grass benmeath the feeding box. The sparrows usually take a liberal morsel and fly to some nearby roost- ing place to leisurely eat it alone; but this sly bird kept pushing large piec- es over the edge of the box as if he was fearful there might be a shortage of food. and then he would know where to find some.
