yesterday on the report OF John D. RockefelIsr's
gift OF $4,000 toward building memorial library
for Dr. Harper the late president OF the University
OF Chicago. and also upon the ethical aspects OF
the accumulation of great wealth. DR.. Macarthur
said in part:
John D. Rockefeller did a noble service IN giving
100000 toward the erection Of the Harper memorial
library in connection with the University OF Chi

In his modesty Mr. Rockefeller would not allow the
Institution TO bear his name. His name Is given

Did you ever as small child
watch with longing eyes a party Of
young ragamufIins romping in a mud
puddle from which you were debarred
by the finery OF your clothes? II
you did. you will remember just how
you hated your frills and furbelows

white gowns that must be guarded

Well, mothers have learned wisdom,
nowadays. The modern mother
knows that health is OF paramount
Importance, that romping means more
to her child's well being than runles
and that an active outdoor life with

OF the many splendid and excellent
charities and endowments given to
America, with noble generosity by
men who in many cases have made
their millions themselves, as, for ex-
ample, the Stanford university, the
Johns Hopkins hospital the endless
hospitals in New York given and en-
dowed by private muniicence, and
the Libraries now sprinkled over a
large area by Mr. Carnegie, one gift
which does not make so much stir in
the world and one which fills a great
need is Mr.. Corcoran's Louise home.
Mr.. Corcorah was a great benefactor.
After the war many women, accus-
toned to all iuxuries, were left in sad
straits; so he built this fine mansion
to give them the shelter that they had
been accustomed to, and which with
out him would have been almost i'm
possible to attain.
Great fortunes are now frequent
ly made and generous impulses are
ever rising SO that perhaps some day
it may occur to a philanthropist that
house somewhat on the lines of Mr..
corcoran's thought would be a god
send in Washington. It should be an
apartment house in which there was
no limit Of age, and where there were
few hard and fast rules, such as di-
viding families. There mother and
daughter need not be divided, nor two
sisters; they could have an apart
ment to themselves, perhaps paying a
sum toward a general mess, in which
case the rooms, the warming and the
gas would be given free. Then the
salary or annuity would cover ex-
penses without a care. II ever this
can be accomplished Washington is
the place for it, for it is there that
SO many come whose professions

salaries which die with the worker
There the army and navy, diplo-
mats, men in all government employ

their careers in Washington. leaving
their wives and daughters-wom
unaccustomed to work-in many cases
with very meager annuities. IL these
could get comfortably housed, rent
free, in a beftting manner they would
get along comfortably enough with
out the daily struggle Of lifes battle.
This charity would certainly help

them a feeling Of home and a posi-

A story-and-a-half house. with seven
rooms and good sized unfinished at
tic for storeroom and for clothes lines
in winter is given in this plan. There
is just as much floor space upstairs
in this house as there is downstairs,
but there is not SO much head room
because Of the low roof near the
caves.
There are four bedrooms, the one
downstairs, however, may be made
into very cozy library if 1t is not
needed for sleeping purposes. But l
find there are good many old-fashT
ioned folks who like to have bed
room downstairs In some cases the
old folks have been accustomed to
sleeping on the ground floor in the old
house and they won't change or it
may be because of some infrmity
member Of the family may not want to
climb the stairs. In such cases this
downstairs bedroom will come in very
handy.
When there is bedroom downstairs
there should be a bathroom within
easy reach. In this plan the bathroom
opens off from the kitchen in the fur
thest corner where it is much out Of
the way as possible, but where it is
convenient This arrangement is liked
on farms. The younger folks may run
up and down stairs easily, but the old
folks like to be made as comfortable
as possible on the lower floor They
have worked hard to supply comforts
and conveniences for the whole family
and now begin to feel that It is their
turn.

room are the two best rooms and the

most suitable for the exposure, eli
mate and soil. There are some kinds
of hardy ivys and other climbers that
will creep up a brick or stone wall;
the same vines would have to be sup
ported on a wooden house, and then
they would prove disappointing. Even
the trumpet vine fails to climb up
boards. but it will attach itself very
firmly to a barn or outbuilding that is
boarded up and down.
The architect can furnish the plans
for a house and the carpenter plum

with some of the heavier sort at the
side, and the kitchen porch is just the
place for large-leayed vines like the
