Last enmmer a movement to close the public baths nearly resulted in depriving thousands of men, wemen and children of one of the most prized hot weather comforts of the poor. It was mainly through the efforts of The Evening Werld that the rights of the people to bathe came to be recognized and all possible facilities left open to them. Before the coming summer is upon us the whole problem of sani- tazy public baths should be thoroughly gone into. Floating baths in which filtered water can be used and continually renewed are probably thee best solution. Anyhow the proper programme for this season is @pepen daths, not to close them. a Is the way we are taught to address letters in this country the dest way? Does it make for speed and accuracy in sorting and despatching mafl? Bvery child in the United States learns to address a letter: John Smith A 200 Washington 6t. Boston Mass. In Japan they would revere it, to read Massachusetts Boston John Smith 200 Washington Street. Busy clerks sorting millions of letters in post offices and mail cars are not interested in John Smith. Their eyes search first fer State, then for city, Why shouldn't these directions have first place on the envelope? The local letter carrier who delivers mail to individuals bas more time. To our way of thinking the Hast turns many things topay fervy. But all “efficiency” hasn't come to live in the West, 5 Rati clas iaceaned SPRUCE UP FOR GUESTS. JW YORK’S well known attractions as a convention city are | seasonably and persuasively set forth by Secretary Mead of the Merchants’ Association. Pointing out that last year 390 international, national, inter- erate and New York State organizations held conventions here with an average attendance of over 1,000 persons, Mr. Mead, in the Real Betate Bulletin, catalogues the financial and commercial activities, the architectural wonders, the host of educational apd scientific insti- tutions, the museums, the hundred theatres and the thousand and one sights and amusements that make the metropolis perennially fascinating to visitors, f Figures show that “every gathoring held in New York during the | past two years has had an attendance from 10 per cent, to as much as! 500 per cent. larger than when held in other citieg? Seven hundred | hotels, housing 160,000 people, easily take care of all comers. And New York hotels never raise their rates. Vor as low as $1.50 per | day a room and bath can be had the year round, ‘New York doesn’t have to think up special inducements for con- ventions. ‘The inducements are all here in the cheapness and variety of interest, comfort and amusement available each and every day. All this applies with special force to the coming season. Be- cause of conditions in Europe, more people than ever before—conven- tiens, families, tourist parties, business men on holiday—will be drawn to this city to see and to epend. We shall find it to our ultimate profit not to greet them with wp-torn pavements, bedraggled, refuse-strewn parks and grimy, lit- tered etrests. Now York has « habit of letting unsightly jobs of dig- ging and street repairing drag on through the warm weather, Spring and.eummer are, after all, visitors’ time, when even a great metropolis should take pains with itself if it hopes to see its profitable guests return. ee Hits From Sharp Wits.
