THE STANDARD OF COMFORT.

Other Things Are to Be Considered Be-
sides Money and Length Of Life.
Money and length Of life are not the
only things to be considered. says
George C. Whipple in the American
City. 1t is what lies between ones
birth and death that really counts. OF
what avail to add a few years to the
length Of life If personal comfort and
happiness are not enhanced? What.
after all, is the chief end of man-tO
live long upon the earth or to obtain
the best enjoyment from the best en-
vironment? Whatever may be our
philosophy. we must admit that our
five senses deserve consideration
Judged from this standpoint, some of
the sanitary arts which do not yield a
dollar for dollar profit begin to loom
large.
Clean streets. clean houses. clean
cars. clean rivers and clean harbOrs
have a value because they tend to
make life more comfortable, more de-
cent and more moral. Sewage treat
ment. while it does not pay large vital
dividends. may yet yield. profit meas
ured In terms Of comfort and decency.
To what extent can physical comfort
and happiness be secured in Il tene-
ment house where people live crowded
together. 1000 to the acre-f0rty-three
square feet Of land TO: each person. a
square seven feet ON IL side-not much
larger than in a respectable cemetery?
The greatest evil Of congestion is that
true home life is rendered impossible.
The greatest evil Of machine labor is
that the Iaborer gets little mental
pleasure from his work. The lack of
home comforts and of comfortable
working conditions is bound to infiu-
ence both vitality and health.

CIVIC AWAKENING
IN SMALL CITIES.
Of What It Effected Under
Widely Different Conditions.

The possibility of producing a civic
awakening in small cities under widely
different conditions has been recently
demonstrated in Petersburg, Va. and
the group Of towns in northern New
Jersey of which Union Hill is the CEN
ter.
Petersburg had Il population in 1910
of 24.127, of whom l1,O14 were negroes.
The town of Union in 1910 had 21,O23
population, with a considerable addi-
tional population in adjacent munich
palities having interests in common.
In Petersburg the chamber of CON-
MERGE had rendered a service which. In
view of its limited income and the lack
of city wide support, was creditable.
The total income was 81, 1925. 1t be-
came increasingly evident. however.
that the public at large must give Its
Interest and support ii the chamber
was to measure up to the needs OF n
city. Accordingly a campaign OF edu-
catiop was undertaken under the direc-
ton of Lucius E. Wilson and Samuel
Wilson Of the American City bureau.
At the end OF two weeks there were
$40 members with a comprehensive
idea as to the broad functions OF the
chamber Of commerce. giving the OF.
~ganization IN income Of $500.
In Union Hill the old board of trade
had gone out of existence after turning
it's effects over to q handful of citizens.
