 To his already long list of social or-
 ganizattons, Father Knickerbocker hes
 added one more which is said to be
 unique in the history of the city if
 not of t.!e whole country. This is the
 homeless husbands club" It has been
 created by q number of men who Whil q
 their families are in the country are forced to remain in the city, but who
 do not care to keep open the lonely house or apartment. Of course these
 homeless men are all members of many clubs at which they might live But this the homeless ones have found to be drawback. since when one of them wishes to find another homeless friend it is frequently necessary for him to search through eight or doz- en clubs to locate him. Accordingly these summer widowers, acting per haps on the theory that misery loves company, got together and leased two complete floors in one of the city's lar gest and newest hotels. Each member will have suite to himself and while from the nature of things it IS expect ed that the occupants of the reserved floors usually will be men, there is nothing in the regulations to prevent a man from having the women members of his family stop with him if they chance to be in town over night There is pantry service on each floor and a large suite is to be reserved for dining rooms.

The case was brought by a man who had expressed a particularly cher ished golf club to New York to be re- paired with the result that it was lost The lower court awarded nominal damages of one cent as against $100- asked by the plaintiff. decision which the appellate division at once set aside Perhaps the most interesting part of this action occurs in the decision of the presiding appellate judge who de- clared tI2t the trial judge, learned in all things but golf. has evidently mis- conceived the case and treated it in spirit of levity not at all warranted by the facts The evidence shows an ut ter failure on the part of the defen- dant to exercise reasonable care in in surfing prompt delivery to the con- signee though it had full knowledge of the necessity for the prompt delivery" As result of this decision golf is very likely to become an important part Of the judicial curriculum in this state. since knowledge of this game, the opinion of the appellate judge indicates has nov become necessary to justices and officers who may be called upor to settle knotty problems in this con neCtiOn.
