Small Blaze at The
Home Of Sam Abrams

Friday evening neighbors dis
covered flames in the windows of
the second story of the apart
ment house on South Lee, occu-
pied by DR.. M. S. Cohen and Mr..
Sam Abrams. Mr.. and Mrs.
Abrams were absent from home
for the evening and the sole oc-
cupant was their four year old
son, Louis. Mrs. Cohen was at
home down stairs but had no in
timatiOn of any fire until some
neighbors gave the alarm. On
investigation it was found that
the electric iron had set the IRON
ing table afire and the flames
had spread to some millinery
nearby. Baby Louis TRANQUILITY
slept in the next room through
out all the excitement not realiz-
ing how close he was to a serious
accident. Housewives using
electric irons cannot be too care
full IN their uses, disconnect them
when not in use.

utmost use to those students of the

Another student followed, daughter
of leading London lawyer, who al

employer and children visited every

an abundance of hope, to found

She chose for its locality Hamp-
stead. high and healthy, and took
comparatively small house facing the

made in that house we had together,
after we had duly approved of the new

grassy garden, and l can remember
how wonderful the heath looked from
he windows at the front, with its
lid open spaces and paths.
Definite enough however, was the
sth upon which the Nursery College
I'd started, prospectuses out, every
ing N order and ready before pupil
vas taken.
The Cardinal Archbishop OF West
Minister on hearing of the scheme sent
for Mrs. Mole. He asked her to eX-
plain the aims of the college, and he
so thoroughly approved of them that
ne said he would open and bless the
work. This he did, formally, on
brilliant Easter Tuesday. Representa-
ives OF the London press turned out
n large numbers. The Cardinal, IN
3ympathetic speech, pointed out that
the status of the nursery nurse should
oe equal to that of the hospital nurse,
provided that her work in her sphere
were equal, and that no girl should
think il derogatory TO take up such
position. The Dowager Marchloness
Of Butte remarked that 1t would not
be easy for girl to make herself
worthy Of the care OF little children.
Thus. in 1908 in London, was opened
I'D new and very honorable career
for women Of education and refine

or women of refinement with sensi-

college?
DO you know she evaded me,
that the Statue of Liberty's woman
and that her nose is four feet ten
inches long? And her mouth is three
feet wide? What an amazing country!
1t is only in America that such d
thing could be possible"
She is sweet to look upon, with her
.sh-blonde hair, parted in the middle
and combed back from high brow,
serene blue eyes and face in shape
and contour suggestive OF the Sistinc
Madonna.
Mrs. Mole remains in this country
out few days. She came here TO
feel out the country in her own
Uords. 20 see whether d nursery col
leqe here would be an institution
which would feel the need OF careers
for American women.

N dening and architecture are
allied and closed related, If,
indeed, they may not be regarded as
two different phases of the same art
Buildings of any kind are never as
beautiful as when placed within
garden setting where the luxury and
beauty of nature furnishes the most
sympathetic of backgrounds for their
correct and dignitied architectural
lines. and gardens are never quite as
satisfying as when placed in close re-
lation with buildings, especially those
of a more or less domestic nature.
The effect of these arts upon one
another may be seen by examining
the great structures still in existence
structures of any age and OF any
country which one may select. Never
did genius more cleverly surround
buildings with settings which be-
slowed added splendor upon Doth the
buildings and their surroundings than
did the great architects Of Italy dur
ing the Renaissance when they built
the villas and palaces and gardens of
princes and pontifis. A different part
of the world, Japan, shows that archi-
lecture and gardening must be
considered together if either is to
reach it's highest development The
buildings necessary to bring garden
ing to full fruition are not necessarily
residences. Often the most minor and
fragile of buildings will suffice. Small
houses of different kinds are to be
found in the gardens of every coun-
try.

structures is known 40 a summer

Arrest and most fanciful of struct-
ures. and may appear upon lawn
or within a garden, or else upon a
spo, from which a particularly inspir-
ing view is to be had.
A tea house is apt to be some
what more substantial than summer

apt to be inclosed upon three sides.
