Between Ourselves

We have received many in
quiries regarding the size of the
upper windows of the new store.
Everyone asks, why are they
The windows of the new store
are not smali-they are HIGH.
The windows of the average
building are 5h feet wide and
s feet high. The windows of the
new Bamberger store are 8 feet
wide. but only 51A feet high.
The reason why they are made
this way is to admit the shelving
underneath. Instead of the shelv-
ing obstructing the windows, as
II does in the average store. 1t
will barely reach to the stills in
the new building. There will be
lust as much light on the inside
of +he store, and the outside will
not be married by u%nstghtly
shelving shown above the win
dow stills.
This Is a new feature in store
construction and one that Is
GOING TO BE COPIED. The
whole country is watching the
progress of the B~amberger build
ing because, being the newest of
the really BIG STORES, 1t will
naturally contain many features
which have not been used hither-
to-. The short window Idea Is
but one of them. There are dozens
-scores-hundreds-of other fea-
lures which W.T. shall tell of later,
just as important and Just as
novel.
The big WHITE STORE" will
represent the last word in de-
partment store building.

CATHOLIC SCHOOL
FUND FIGHT ENDS
N. Y. Comptroller and Church
Authorities Reach Ami
cable Settlement.

NEW YORK, March 4.-The dispute
between Comptroller Prendersast and
the Catholic Church authorities of the
city has been amicably settled. Michael
F. McGoldrick, counsel FL the Catholic
charitable institutions in Brooklyn,
confirmed yesterday the report that tho
comptroller and the authorities had
reached an agreement for a uniform
system of accounting, for which he has
been ~contending. It Is understood that
the way to a settlement of the differ
epces was smoothed by Charles F.
Murphy, leader of Tammany Fall, and
former President Roosevelt.
The institutions had refused to per-
init representatives of the finance de-
partment to examine books containing
private contributions. AS these often
contained also the city,s appropriations
and their disposition. the comptroller
insisted upon the examination. AS the
result of his insistence he has been the
subject of much adverse criticism In
the Catholic Church, of which he is a
member.
Ignoring Eugene Phiibin and Ed
ward NJ. Grout, acting as counsel for
Cardinal Farley, head Of the New York
archdiocese, Comptroller Prendergast
conferred with Monsignor Hayes,
chancellor Of the archdiocese, and a
solution of the problem satisfactory to
all concerned was reached. This was
followed by a conference yesterday
with Bishop Mcdonnell, head of the
Brooklyn institutions, and tho result
was equally satisfactory.

With determined purpose to make
fair bic to win the $3.50 prize offered
by The Star for the best play pupils
of tho public and parochial schools of
Essex, Hudson and Union counties are
diligently at work perfecting their
stories and putting their manuscripts
in shape.
Announcements are coming in daily
of the progress of the work among the
young writer's, who have manifested a
most extraordinary interest in this
contest. There are now fifty contes-
tants who have sent In their entry
blanks, according to the rules of the
contest.
It seems pretty certain that out of
that number there will be many plays
of merit and we quietly prophesy that
the judges will have an interesting
time in making up their minds as to
the prize play. Contestants, however,
may rest assured hat the matter of
selecting the winning play is in COM
petent hands and h Judges will not
know whose play they are reading.
The question will be settled absolutely
and entirely on it's merits.
1t is certain, therefore, that whatever
may be the quality or quantity Of plays
to be judged the opinion reached by
the judges will be just and proper.
Each manuscript will receive all due
consideration and each contestant will
have al equal opportunity to win the
prize.
In order to maintain the great in
terest that has marked the play
writing contest from it's beginning The
Star each day will reproduce pictures
of the young authors whose are
on the registered list Of contestants.
There has beenS a satisfactory re-
sponse to the request made a short
time ago by the Contest Editor for
photos. but still there are several who
have not yet compiled. j
