Group BuiIdino Plan.

A special feature of the building at
what is known as The Gardens" a
section of Philadelphia, is the so-called
group building" plan. This plan makes
it possible to buy house of superior
construction and enduring value for a
lower price because of its being either
semidetached or one of group OF
three, four, six. eight or ten houses set
continuously in a row. These groups
and rows add greatly to the beauty and
variety of the building scheme. They
have been planned so as to conform to
land and road contours and are of diff.
ferent sizes and prices, with varying
Interior arrangements and arehitec-
tural treatment. For instance, houses
may be sold for less money than a de-
tached house on larger plot. but the
group house purchaser has the same
advantages in construction. and a rich
ness and variety in the architectural
treatment of the block unit, not pos
sible with the smaller exterior surface
of a detached house. That this novel
building feature has been appreciated
is shown by the fact that the group
houses have been eagerly bought

"The subject allotted for this session

association very little explanation, be-

Of our civic problems think that It
is true that al successful enterprises
of magnitude have been planned enter
prises; they have not come about by
chance. Ia city planning we recognize
that millions OF dollars in money and
many things more precious than
money have been wasted because of a
lack of plan Our streets. our parks.
our recreation spaces, cur houses and
homes, give ample evidence of all of
this. The first step. 1t would seem. to-
ward the solution of our social and in
dustrial problems is comprehensive
plan. We need transportation plans to
solve our transportation problems; We
need zone plan to district our cities,
to give stability TO land values and to
protect districts; We need an indus
trial district plan in order to give. eff
cheney to industry. and we need plan
for homes for the workers because,
without a plan, there is not the slight
est prospect that they will be properly
housed. Commercial efficiency rests

CHANGES WROUGHT BY WAR
"Tommy Atkins" of Today Is Differ ent Being From His Prototype of
 Few Years Ago.

The old pOuterpigeon type of Brit ish soldier, with his ramrod deport- ment and feet at impossible angles, is now as obsolete as his red coat This change is evident, not only in the training of the new army, but in the royal cadet schools at Sandhurst and Woolwich. Alertness and agility. mental and physical, are now aimed for instead of physical rigidity and mechanical precision as in the old times
 swedish exercises have taken the place of conventional calisthenics About the only piece of apparatus left in the Sandhurst gymnasium is the padded horse. Parallel bars. rings. heavy dumb-bells and pulley exercises have been sent away Now the ca dets are taught what is known in their slang as monkey tricks, such as walking on top of high and narrow stone walls and jumping safely to the ground, skipping the rope and playing various kinds of games

 "There are a large number of un- fortunate people in Mexico facing death by starvation and the president of the United States and the Ameri- can Red Cross, make an appeal for money and food supplies. Gifts of corn, beans, rice and flour will be ac- cepted at any point in the United States and forwarded by the Red Cross to Mexico through tie most practicable route to reach the people in distress.
 'Money may be sent to local Red Cross treasurers or to Red Cross headquarters in Washington. Before donated supplies are sent from any point, instructions from Washington will be furnished for routine. The most practicable gateways into Mex ico at the present time, are under the present conditions, Vera Cruz (yia Galyeston), Brownsville, Laredo Bagle Pass and Fl Paso, Texas, and Nogales, Ariz."

 strict economy in the use of safety matches is being advocated by mer
 chants who know how limited the stocks in Australia are at present, and how difficult it is to procure further supplies while the war lasts. Al ready prices have risen 133 per cent in the wholesale market, and only a most careful use of these matches can prevent an actual shortage. The chief reason for this state of affairs

try. In 1912 she spent for coal $41,-
100000 in England, $27 100000 in
Germany, and 100000 in Bel
gium. When she can do without
buying the 800, 900 of coal each
year, when she has more at home
than all her present industries can
consume, smelters, factories, and
mills will multiply beyond the reach
of any natural increase in income.
France will withhold capital. from
colonies and other foreign fields to
employ at home, and here the United
States will gain "a new opportunity
to extend her own financial scope.
Whether the United States will be
equal to the opportunity, whether she
can command capital enough for
wide investments outside her boun-
daries, depends upon how enthusias-
tically she now enters upon her func-
ton of ministering to the wants of
all mankind, sending her foodstuffs,
her raw materials and her manufac-
lures wherever they can be honestly
and profitably used, from Buenos
Aires to Iceland and from Egypt to
Hongkong.
