But Not Taxproof.
From Life.


A model concrete house has been built
by a corporation at Montclair. N. ]. 1t
weighs 500 tons and has only two ingredi-
ents-concrete and steel. 1t is, in effect.
solid chunk Of rock. and is expected
to last forever. 1t is fireproof. water
proof, rat and mouse proof-everythins
but taxproof.
To make an imperishable house that is
not taxproof seems sort of futile. but
after all 1t may be no more uneconomic
than to make an immortal soul and neg
lect to make it proof against sin. A
world of all-concrete houses and sin
proof souls might not be SO interesting
as this world we know. There would be
no fire engines, no insurance companies
and no churches. 1t might seem dull.
The perishable nature of mundane
things probably helps to make us tolerant
of them. Imperishable things, like souls,
were wisely planned to be unsubstantial.
Ii souls weighed 800 tons we might wish
they didn't last so well, and that perma-
nent house in Montclair may be blown up
in the next generation by q public out
of all patience with its style.

on him to learn, on behalf of his news

Touring Through Great Britain.
From Golfers

Motoring through England is an ideal
way to spend holiday, though the roads,
for the most part, are hardly as good as
those of France. Landing at Liverpool.
there is a choice of routes to London.
The best is via Whitchurch and Newport
to Birmingham. Here 1t meets the Holy
head road. famous in coaching history
which Leads on through Daventry and
Dunstable. There is also a choice of
routes from Southampton to London. the
highway divides at Winchester, one road
going via Basingstoke. Bagshot and
Staines-this is the best for speed-the
more picturesque route is via Alton,
Guldford and Kingston. One of the
most interesting tours In the kingdom is
over the old North road from London to
Edinburgh. which takes in on the way
the beautiful cathedral cities of Peter
borough, York. Lincoln and Durham.

Millions have watched the kettle boil

it took the ina gination of Watt and a

that earth owes most. 1t has taught us
how to make life beautiful; to turn the
stumbling blocks of nature into helpful
forces; even how to make OF unwilling
