Architects have over $10,000,000 of Plans intended for fling ahead of tho Boning restrictions, but they were @hut out by the unexpectedly quick ection of the Board of Estimate fa adopting the measure, Most of these projects will be exocuted in con | formity with the new regulations in order to compete with neighbors who Bave placed their plans on record. Much Itigation and confusion tn the buliding branch of the market fe predicted result of the read- Justment.

By Marguerite Mooers Marshall. What sort of wife do you want? What sort of husband do you want? Those are the two questions which I am asking every young man and woman who reads The Evening World. each of you hae a pretty definite idea of the sort of individual with whom you might spend happily three hundred and sixty-five days every year. If you are sensible, you do not set your heart upon a perfect hue band, or a perfect wife; should there ever be such an individual he or she would be a perfect bore, But any person who has thought about the matter at all realizes that there are certain traits, certain attributes, which he or she must find In a mate, if there is to be real nmamai.. happiness in the union. “The man I marry,” @ young woman whom I know very well confided to me, “muet ‘be eix feet tall with the shoulders of the Praxitelean Hermes.

He must know how to laugh, how to work, how to love—particularly the last.” tirely blind to mine, Gene THE 1918 MODEL AND THAT OF) gotmy Hire Coun” An tumiret 1767, That Is one husband, Nineteen- Sixteen model. | hope to receive riptions of ever so many more varieties of him in lett from the young women who read thie column, And | want modern young men to tell me what is the type of girl who appeals to them moat dosirable for a wife, Your communications, with names with- held, of course, will be published from day te day In The Evening World, and | think that they will prove Interesting reading for all of us.
