Comfort may be divided into the physical and mental. As physical we may consider the house and its sur- roundings, The ordinary city resident must be content to have his individuality stifled and suppressed to make a cer- tan plece of land, containing @ sto brick and steel structure with a tain number of apartments, yield a certain amount of income, The indl- vidual tastes of the tenants are not considered. This condition cannot but have a most depressing effect upon the physi- cal nfort and unsatisfied dealres of the individual so restricted, The crowd- Ing of five so-called rooms by means of partitions into a space ordinarily in- tended for but two rooms is due ly to the artificial conditions created by people insiting upon living In sections where the land values are too great for the owners of such land to erect any other type of residence than that which forces the occupants to live in confined and restricted quarters, In a word, the land values are so high tha the maximum inc’ for a ininimum space is the inevitable result the alee of Adrian Palisades Park op number of new wttrasti» dieplay of fireworks will be Thursday evening. ais AMERICAN SCULPTOR GIVES ay with @ The frat given on | Pierce’s Corn ree's | | are thin and handy to use—| | they're sure and effective, too ROMAN CLOISTER TO FRANCE DRADER, Fran Grey Barnard, th York has presented Government the rel George columns thet getmed the Koman cloister ln t rutme"@f the Abbey of St. Michel « Cum.” Tee proposed removal of the colun to the United States nroured 9 rm protest.

When the average city man talks of the suburbs he generally says, “Yes, 1/ know, but think of the conventences 1 have in the city."
