Group Building 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 a group of
three, four, six, eight or ten houses set
CONTINUOUSLY in 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 architec-
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 rich
ness and variety in the architectural
treatment of the block unit, not pos
sible with the smaller exterior surface
of detached house. That this novel
building feature has been appreciated
is shown by the fact that the group
houses have been eagerly bought.

.M HELPS
SYSTEM OF CITY BUILDING
Practically the Same Principles Should
Be Applied as In Commercial
Development.

An important session of the conven-
ton of the American Civic association
at Washington was that devoted to city
planning. with Mr.. John Nolen OF Cam
bridge, Mass, vice-president of the as
ISOLATION, presiding. In introducing
the subject, Mr.. Nolen said:
1.-THE subject allotted for this session
is City Planning, which needs in this
association very little explanation, be-
cause it strikes at the root of so many
of our civic problems. ! think that 1t
is true that all successful enterprises
of magnitude have been planned enter
prises; they have not come about by
chance. In 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, our houses and
homes, give ample evidence OF all OF
this. The first step, it 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 plan, there is not the slight
est prospect that they will be properly
housed Commercial efficiency rests
upon rapid and cheap transportation
of merchandise; upon the proper loca-
ton of water and rail terminals and
facilities; upon distributing routes;
and upon contented people in good
homes with Fairgrounds"

seIf.Adiustina Piston RInq.

Packing the pistons in an internal
combustion engine is not an easy mat
ter and many are the plans made to
circumvent the necessity of continual
ly adjusting and packing loose pistons.
A novel type of piston ring has been
invented by a Boston manufacturer,
in which the use of radial holes serves
to equalize the pressure between the
outer and inner surfaces. The piston
rings have slightly conical shape,
which causes them to be forced tight
ly against the cylinder walls during
the compression stroke, when the
tendency of downward crowding" is
at its highest.-Scientific American.

NOVEL IDEA IN NEW YORK
"Be Good Neighbor" Movement Is
Plan of Civic Association to
Relieve Distress.

After Ebert H. Gary had written
letters to President Wilson and Gov
ernor Whitman asking their help in
accelerating national and state public
works the mayors committee on
unemployed announced that it was
ready to try out new plan for re-
lieving distress in this city to be
called the BE a Good Neighbor"
movement.
The movement is described as fol-
lows by Charles Stelzle, the commit
tees director of relief and emergency
measures:
1.-THE plan has as It's immediate pur-
pose the securing of a considerable
number of men and women who will
assume responsibility for families or
individuals whose need may consist Of

medicine or a job. The good neigh
Dor need not necessarily supply all
these wants, but he may assist by d.
recting the needy person to the agen-
cies or persons prepared to do So
However, no limit is to be placed upon
the friendship and neighborliness
which the good neighbor' may feel
disposed to exercise.
"'Good neighbors' will be given the
preference as to the particular agency
with which they would like to cooper
ate. If, for example, good neighbor'
prefers to work only through the
churches the case will not be referred
to any charitable organization. The
same principle will be applied to all
other groups doing relief work."-New
York Times.
