mand for practical information about
the care and feeding, clothing and
training of their children. To meet
this demand this new service has been
created and in connection with II the
following mother calendar for Janu-
airy appears. 1t Is really set of New

8. That I will do my housework in
properly ventilated rooms and allow
myself at least one hour of outdoor
exercise daily.
4. THAT L will recuperate my ply

S. That / viii join hands with my
neighbors in fighting conditions which

individual family and the community.
g. That l will give a little time
each day TO the intelligent study OF
child life, the care and feeding of in

CEILING DECORATION.
Some ideas That May Be Utilized to
Improve a Room.

From the Seattle Post Intelligence
In decorating a room it should be re-
membered that the ceiling is not
negligible quantity. a mere device to
separate one room from another 1t is
really no less than WALL and should
be treated with as much care as wall
or a floor of which it is often only the
other side. 1t also takes the place for
the time being of the sky
In France and Italy the idea OF the
ceiling sky finds expression in the pale
blue of the ceiling, or. going a step far-
ther. in suns and stars. or clouds and
cherubs which adern it. Foliage. If prop
erly 1reated. makes a good subject Tor
ceiling decoration because it again sus-
gests the natural roof that would be
formed by the tree branches. But these
are subjects for a country where
plenty of sunlight permits of great
deal of outdoor life. They are less suit
ed to blazing fires or hot air apparatus.
The English ceiling lends itself best to
panelng. though this is chiefly confined
TO the dining room. Generally speak
ing, the tone of an English dining room,
even today, is warm and dark. browns
and reds giving it warm. cozy appear
ance. If paneling is not possible, a black
naper gives a very good effect, or, better
still a paper slightly dulled with black
to render 1t at the same time mellow
and inconspicuous.

EARLY English Homes.

From the Building Age
English common people for centuries
made their homes in wooden huts of one
room. When family increased in num-
ber or wealth another hut was built to
if. or rather a lean-to was added. and an
other and another as needs required.
Sometimes they followed straight line,
other times they were built out from the
central hut at various angles. The roofs
of these huts were matched. In the CEN
ter was left an opening for the fumes and
smoke of the fire to escape. The fire was
ALWAYS built in hollow In the center of
the room.
Beds were straw, often shakedown In
a corner. Occasionally the straw was
held in a frame like the ribs Of a ship.
Houses built by Saxon knights were
much more pretentious. They were big
halls, like the Roman atrium, with a
lofty roof matched with slate or wood
shingles The floor was hard clay. In
the middle was a great fire Of dry wood.
The thin. acrid smoke from the fire es-
capped through an opening in the roof di-
rectly above the hearth.
Around the fire were long benches on
which hearthsmen and visitors sat when
not fighting or at work and talked and
drank the hours through. The tables
were long boards on trestles At night
like the less prosperous folks, the floor
was strewn with straw and host and
visitors slept together.

APARTMENT DEFINED.
Is a Dwelling House. According to
Gotham Judge.
From the New York Sun.

rom the New York Sun
The right of an apartment house to be
classed as q private dwelling was treated
at some length by Justice Mclaughlin
who wrote the opinion recently handed
down by the appellate division Of the
supreme court in the Murray Hill re-
striction case. The decision states thar
an apartment house may properly be
erected on the old South Dutch Church
site. southeast corner of Madison avanue
and 3Sth street
In the opinion several previous cases
sernane to the subject are cited, and
lhe statement is made that the erec--
tion OIL an apartment house does not
Vloiate covenant forbidding the eree-
tlon OF anything except dwelling houses
ana is no longer an open question in
this court, at least
1T is matter of common knowledge"
says Justice Mclaughlin in his opinion.
tnat In recent years in the city of New
ork there has been a great increase in
the number of apartment houses, and
In their use for housing not only the mid
dition of affairs it is idle to say that the
parties who made the Murray Hill re-
strictve agreement in 1917 intended that
the district should be restricted to priv
ate residences. They undoubtedly did
intend 1t to continue as a residential dis
trict, but they limited the character of
the buildings only to dwelling houses.
Apartment houses. form of building un-
known until long after the agreement
was made, are now the dwelling houses
of a constantly increasing proportion of
the residents of the city of New York.
Whether the parties if they could have
foreseen this development would have
provided against it is matter of spec
ulation. They did provide, however, only
against the erection of any building other
tnan dwelling houses, and an apartment
house of the kind described in the sub
mission certainly does not come within
this prohibition

Haphazard Cities.
From the Chicago Tribune

From the Chicago Tribune
The modern city is haphazard con-
Rlomeration of private and public lnstitu-
tons, according to the City Club of CHI
caso. 1t suffers from want Of healthy
neighborhood life. The efficiency OF
many public institutions, such as charity
stations. social settlements and the IKE,
is greatly impaired by the thoughtless
manner in which they are distributed
The club announces, therefore, COM
petition for plans for a neighporhood
center. The plans are designed to show
1.-The practical possibilities OF enhancing
neiehborhood life in our cities by proper
grouping of buildings and grounds for
neiehborhood activities The ideal city,
according to the promoters of this COM
petition is a federation of such properly
planned neighborhoods-
ANY study of housing conditions IN our
industrial cities should be welcomed. In
efficient housing is at the root of great
many distressing situations which Tor
want of a better word must be des1gnat-
ed as social problems" The work OF
the City Club in the direction OF hndlnS
practical and graphic suggestions for pet
ter city planning may be made to hold
great benefit If the plans decided upon
are brought to the attention of the pub
lie and are made the opening wedge for
a vigorous campaign for better city
building.
We have bad SO many commissions IN
recent years studying Investigating, !"
reporting. and resolving on all manner OF
matters that are wrong with U.S. II Is 10
be hoped the City Club competition will
be more than Just another, destined to
dust and desuetude.

The High Cost of Water.

From the Yale REVIEW
In one item at least the cost of living
has been increased out of all reason
pure water. Our fathers found II

but modern sanitation i,2. esouleo
every stream, poisoned eVery well ana
rendered every spring an object of sus-
picion II there be a UNDISCOVERED
bucket left anywhere, it would have
to be sterilized before using. Untold
millions have been spent to give cities
and towns pure water. and after we
have paid the resulting taxes we are
warned by boards of health to boil the
water before drinking. The fever we
get in the autumn we are tod we
brought with us from the country,
where the water is only less dangerous
than the milk Usually u city draws its
water from the same stream In Which
1t deposits its sewage, with a shrug for
the towns below, and a curse Tor those
above. In the summer OF 1913 nsh. by
some mischance, found itself In the Pas
sale river and tried to escape by jump
ing. The event was SO extraordinary
that it was soberly chronicled on the
front pages of the New York papers.
Ict there was time. not so many ears
ago. when this stream supplied much of
the food for the people who lived on its
hanks. We pay from 10 to Is cents a
gallon for water with modest pedi-
gree, but d high class certificate of pur-
ity costs US 40 cents, II We return the
jug. The man who gets this price for
water is admired for his Yankee
shrewdness, while the man who sup
plies us with refined kerosene at less
than a third of this price Ia deemed
worthy of fine and imprisonment The
war tariff of 1864 put duty on mineral
waters, but this tax was taken off in
1872. The Mckinley bill of 1890 re-
stored the duty. but the democratic bill
of 1894 made mineral waters free again.
The Dingley bill of 1897 restored and
increased the duty, which the Payne
Underwood bill reduced the tax, leav-
ing 1t at about the level of the Mckinley
tari6. How this was accomplished

patriotism .f the American is tepid along
side the hot-blooded nationality of Ar
