Mr. Astor did not believe that most Of
mankind would act to destroy, SO he
declared his intention of housekeeping
1t was a stupendous task which he
had embarked on, and no one realized
this better than Astor himself. The
number of his properties runs into the
thousands. Personal investigation of
each house or bit of land was out of
the question. So the young man of
twenty set a staff of investigators
to work at the task, 1t is still going
on. 1t is not only big job and a
slow job. but an extremely costly one,
even for the possessor of over So.

Mr.. Aston became the head of the
family in April, 1912 and his great
work just referred to didn't become
known for eight months. by which
time it was we'll under way. Meantime
all sorts of little things that indicated
his desire to be real not a nominal
head of his family were happening
On Nov. Is last Mr. Astor was TWEEN
ty-one and came formally into posses
sion Of his fathers estate. There was
no celebration. The young man had
been at his desk the morning before
and had left to go yachting with a
friend The morning Of the 18th saw
him again at his desk at o'clock. He
worked until in the afternoon Then
he left to go to Ferncliffe his place
on the Hudson, for a quiet birthday
dinner with his mother and sister
Before he left he told the staff to look
for him at his desk next morning, and
the next morning found him there
The waxing interest of Mr.. Astor in
social work was shown by news Of two
benefactions on successive days. A
few weeks ago it was announced that
he would found at Rhinebeck an up to
date children's convalescent home
Then came word Of his plan to give
an outing every Saturday throughout
the warm weather to 5000 poor We
men and children. including a sail to
Bath Beach and back. luncheon and
swimming This work Mr. Astor dele
gated to the Children's Aid society. and
he pays the bills. With his increasing
social and business activities he has
not neglected the sports he loves In
the last half year he has bought two
powerful racing automobiles and has
arranged to build a 1900 ton yacht

ring at morning ard at noon. again with tens
of thousands the hardest kind of work has be-

physical strain to all except the most rugged.
The little girl that few days ago had roses in

1t has taken this length Of time to

Astor recently began the practice Of
giving an outing every Saturday to
5000 women and children of New York
city. These continue throughout the

His wealth fires the imagination his
youth, for he is only Of age. is an
other factor and the fact that he has
barely had a chance to show his tastes
and inclinations caps the reasons why
everything he does or says is cynosural
to most of his fellow men
What has Vincent Astor done since
coming into his great fortune? What
bent has he shown? What are his
tastes. his ways. and what. judging by
his initial acts. does he intend to do
with life?
The streak of modesty in him has so
far kept him from telling any one of
his aims and purposes. 1t is only by
his performance that we know him.
Three months after he came into the
Aston fortune he had worked out a
comprehensive scheme of administra-
ton which involved the investigation
OF all the properties of the estate 1t
did not become generally known until
last December that he was conducting

This was the result of Mr.. Astor's
belief that the sources of such for

that 1t was negligence in this respect
that more than any other single thing
underlay bitterness against great for
tunes. 1t was not enough he seemed
to imply. to give money for worthy
purposes unless the giver were sure
that none of his wealth was his by
