the summer time are the most

When the heat becomes too

and the roofs make a bid for the
patronage which the ground floor

NEW YORK,

Yet further south in the Bow
cry region people live packed in
so tight that it has been said, if
similarly housed, all the inhabi-
tants of the earth could live in the
little State of Delaware. On a
roof in this section of lower New
York | found a little matched
shack made of an old crate which
the children of the tenements had
built and honored with the name
of playhouse" Little concep-
ton can be had by those who
know nothing of life in these I'm
sanitary, suffocating homes, of the
immense blessing it is to the I'M
fortunate children to vary their
pathetic and monotonous entity
by the indulgence of roof recrea-
tons. If those who live in the
fashionable quarters find the
roofs available adjuncts to their
health and pleasure it is easy to
understand how much more vital
factor they become in those Sec
tons where people are packed
into small, hot rooms, where ven
tilation is impossible, and where
a breath of fresh air is treat. In
the tenement house districts of
the ghetto on sultry midsummer
nights the roofs become one vast
bedroom where often, with only
their arm for a pillow, the poor,
overheated unfortunates lie pro-
miscuously stretched out upon
the gravel or tin roofs, which all
day under the searching rays of
the SUN become almost unbear-
able, yet are sought as relief
from the stuffy rooms below.
And with Gods great acres in
viting them to share the pure air
and wholesome freedom of the
boundless west, these people hud-
die and crowd into the unsym-
pathetic cities.
The roofs of the great city,
however, are not devoted to the
humble uses of the poor exclusive
ly. Nowhere does New York

whatever point of the compass,
for wherever is the sky of Hawaii

the ever-glorious rolling of the
surf, leaving the sunshine show
ers that may sprinkle the left foot
and not go for the right, drop;
leaving the blues and the violets
and the greens and the pinks of
sky and sea, leaving the water
falls down the hillsides, leaving
the swimmers and the canoes, and
the steamers, and all the craft

humanity and merchandise, it's

at the Moana, the Hawaiian, the
Alexander Young hotels, as luxu-
rious and splendid as any in the
world. While we were walking
(not dwelling) in the marble halls
OF the Young Hotel last week
it was that cool and reposeful, we
really felt a Whit of air from
Mount Tantalus. They are as de-
lightful as the cloisters of some
magnificent Old World monas-
terry, refreshing, sweet and full of
solid comfort. One can be in the
world there and not necessarily Of
it. In the very pulse beat of the
town this mammoth splendor
rises, the result of genius and OF
skill-the home of art and of all
comfort, the epitome of every de-
vice for mans entertainment.
The stores of the hotel can vie
with London, Paris or New York.

THE STATE UNIVERSITY.
Over Three Hundred Students En-
rolled At institution.


Hon. Frank Williams, returning
from meeting Of the University re-
gents at Reno, made some statements
To the Review concerning the charges
Of various newspapers that the Univta
sity OF Nevada is. comparatively. the
most expensive institution in the
world.
Starting from the premise that the
cost OF everything is higher in Ne
vada than in most other places where
universities are maintained, he ex-
plains that the Nevada University. be
ing a State institution, must keep
Up all department regardless Of at
tendance-in other words, must main
tain It's standard. In the face of
these two untoward conditions, fig:
ures show that the cost per pupil 10
no more than in other Western uni
versities, and that an increase of 80
to 40 per cent in the present atten-
dance would add but little TO the
present cost. Most OF the appropria.
tons made by the legislature this
year were for new buildings and i'm.
provements and cannot be charged
to current expenses.
The University now has an atten
dance Of 300 students, an increase
Of Is per cent over last year.-Clarl

before leaving for the train yes

ever had as good schools as at the
present time. The board Of educa-
ton has acted wisely in the selection
OF instructors for this year and am
sure that the teachers will accom-
l.sh results during the school year"
Mr.. Ross also spoke we'll Of the
Lincoln High School at Panaca, and
stated that the organization is such

high schools in the state. A course
OF study has been adopted, Mr.. Ross
says, that when student completes
it he is ready to enter any college

Social Happenings

carried out was the Halloween party
given by Mrs. E. E. Fuller and Mrs.
j. L. Bowman at the home of the
former Saturday afternoon. October

that they succeeded admirably.
The spirit of Halloween was mani
fest everywhere. On assembling, each
guest was ushered into the presence
of the witch, who was properly dress

al ulfices of witchcraft. The witch
told the fortunes of each lady. Some

Homes In Spring Valley.

The Ely Record says that from
present indications 1t will be but a
ehcrt time until Spring Valley, In
eastern White Pine county, will be
settled with thrifty and intelligent
class of farmers who will soon carve
homes from the desert waste. At
the present time at least three diff
ferent outfits are preparing to sink
artesian wells while others will test
the ground for the purpose Of install
ing pumping plants. Spring valley
Is one of the finest bodies Of land
IN the state, and Is capable Of sup
porting several thousand population
when the soil is once under cultiva-
ton.

The Hobgoblins held forth at the
home of Jesse Simmons last Satur-
day night and they did not dispense
until the cock crowed."
It was "stag affair." and a huge
JACKIE lantern stood guard to fright
en- away anyone who might be in
clined to intrude. Notwithstanding
the precautions, a delegation Of the
Fair seq "swiped" = rooster from Mil
ton Lees coop and rather rudely
passed the fowl in through a win

invitation from those on the outside
TO go home, but the feathered member
only squawked;" hence the festiv-
ties were Cc,it,ni ed.
The decorations were in keeping
with the occasion. Punk sticks were

COMMERCIAL CLUB
"SNOKER' BIG SUCCESS

The first smoker" given by the
lioche Commercial club, last Wednes-
day evening, was huge success.
While the date was that of the regu-
lar monthly meeting of members, Sec
,etary Jesse Simmons indicated on
the cards sent out that there would
lie more than the regular dry rou-
tine of business-that there would be
something doing to make entertain
ment for everybody. The result was,
an attendance which filled the room
almost to overflowing. The evening
was spent very enjoyabiy and be-
fore the program was brought to a
close many expressed the hope that
these smokers" would be held often
er than once a month.
But the early part of the evening
was given up to the transaction of
business, most important of which
was the election of another member
Of the board of governors to fill a
vacancy and the honor fell to Hans
Olson, who. on motion Of j. A. Clark,
was chosen by reclamation. In res
pons2 to q request for speech Mr..
Olson expressed his appreciation of
the recognition that had been given
him and declared that he would work
cay in and day out for the success
Of the club
The matter af sfolter hours for EN-
pl0yes of the various mercantile es-
Establishments was brought up and tie
heads of these institutions express
ed desire to get together on the
proposition of early closing. Some
voiced the opinion that just as
much business would be done if the
stores closed every evening at
o'clock and also if Sunday was giver
up to day of rest. The matter was
finally left to the chairman to appoin
a committee consisting of represen
tatives Of the business houses WHIT

at an understanding.

SMALLPOX AT CAIRO.

Some day this government will be-
come so efficient that towns like
Cairo cannot persist as a menace to
surrounding communities. The heath
officer Of Cairo is not physician, and
il is said that the state authorities do
not accept health statistics from the
local health department, having
adopted the system OF receiving in
formation through their own agencies
ever since the yellow fever epidemic.
Paducah health authorities while in
Cairo weeks ago discovered cases
running at large, and II has been as
certained to their satisfaction that
some of Cairos smallpox patients are
coming into Paducah. Cairo docsn''
say anything about her cases. because
II is feared the town will lose a little
trade for awhile. We will do our best
TO advertise the condition of Cairo In
this end of Kentucky and across the
river. Fortunately Paducah's health
department has the local situation
well in hand, and the precautions
taken should assure rather than
alarm anyone. Visitors need fear
nothing In Paducah. All the small
pox in Paducah is Guaranteed. Cairo
should be turned into a pest house.
