LOVED ATTIC IS NO MORE
Well-Remembered Scene Of Childish
ReveIs Has No Place in the Mod
ern Apartment House.

In moving back to town the fam
lily suddenly discovered that their
new house had no attic. Consterna-
ton reigned. Worse, they next woke
to realize that modern houses have
no attics. Where once the attic
bloomed, they have a spare chamber
and a whole suite elite for the cook,
with dormer windows, electric lights,
open plumbing, plastered walls and
wallpaper patterned with pink roses.
The apartment-house flat is as bare
of an attic as it is OF that other an
cient and honorable institution of
family life, the woodshed where the
strap hung.
Say what you will, the loss is seri-
Gus. In the attic children could
have things their own way and drive
nails where and when they pleased.
In the attic theatrical performances
were not interrupted by parental
censors. In the attic Arabs raided,
Indians scalped, and Eliza crossed
the ice Realistically impersonated
by a collection Of calf's-hide-covered
trunks).
Where will family history collect
now that it is evicted from the attic !?
Not in the basement. That is occu-
pied by the janitor.-Boston Globe.

MORE BOYS BORN.

Birth statistics for London seem
to show that nature has begun to re-
store the balance of the sexes which
is being disturbed by the war. Dur
ing the past 10 weeks 1920 boys
and 1867 girls were born. This
gives a proportion Of 1,047 boys to
1000 girls, which is seven more boys
than the average for England and
Wales before the war. Compared
with the same quarter Of the year
in 1913 the London figures are re-
markable, for the proportion then
was only 1,012 boys to 1000 girls
In the 1918 quarter there were more
girl babies than boy babies in seven
Of the thirteen weeks; this year the
girls exceeded the boys in only one
week. The popular belief that war
increases the male relatively to the
female birth rate is therefore being
