So, what's the use? ships have been made ca) damp clouds and will be even more practical, And this | 4s “just bound" to happen before they | finish New York, and nobody ever will | know what It was going to look Ike. | It is depressing to think of lying on| a rainbow and observing Broadway upshadowed by a human form, or the entrance to the Brooklyn Bridge or | the subway it a soul in sight | but, after all, there is something cheer- ing in that last thought But F But then ‘ures Don't Agree. learned gentlemen do not al- nights a h a and fifty that in five hundred years there still be enough people left to finish the Bky-scrapers and subway, and even Insist there are even going to be ever so m e of us an¢ birth rate is actually on the tr some Dr. W. H. of the Health Department, gives s 6s to confirm his etatemen lines. “In New York ©: s been an Increase of §,998 births this year over last year,” Dr. Guilfoy remarked. “We must take into consideration, too, that not only in this city but throughout the country ft {s impossible to get abso- lutely accurate figures on the birth rate. This is due to parents’ lack of knowl- edge of the luws, the lack of some needed laws, and difetlty in enforcing some of those we have. The true birth rate is probably larger t!an the record- ed, The past year has shown in New York City the highest birth rate yet placed upon the statistics, with an in- crease of fur points In ten years. Last year 89% twins were born here and seven triplets, Foreigners Keep Up Rate. “In New York City Inst yenr §2,%61| Women who became mothers were for- eigners, against a native rate of 38,261 Of course {t {s true that the poor class foreigners are the ones who keep up the high average. The Itallans have the largest families, the Jews are next and the Irish are third. “In one Italian block, with a population | of 5,000, there were 24 births. On the | other hand in ten blocks of private | welling houses on the upper west side, | with a population of 5,719, only thirty | births were recorded several explanatory circumstances .-or this startling comparison. “To begin, consider the number of unmarried domestics in the latter nelgh- borhood. Then again, people do not live in a fashionable part of the city unless they have money, Comparatively few people are born rich, so by the time they have attained sufficient means to take up their abode tn a portion of the city where the rents are highost their families are already in existence, "I do not wish to imply there Is no foundation for the sermons that are Preached concerning the selfishness of many of our American wives, Unfortu- nately, much that 4s said is founded on shameful fact. I simply wish to| show, however, that the human race! 4s in no immediate danger of becoming extinct." 8 ES ry . 8 3 ES Se ee Reason 3.
