than before
 The physicians realized that 'theart disease is 6 social disease and must be treated socially; the child and his family must be educated, his environ ment must be altered and adapted to his limitations and he must be kept under supervision for a long period, not merely until he has recovered from the acute symptoms"
 Home Care Best
 So in 1911 a social worker was se- cured to supervise home treatment of these children. The results have been so gratifying that home care has been substituted for hospital care, for all but the acutely sick.
 There is not nearly so much danger of relapse if the child has been in his own home from the beginning and his parents have had the care Of him dur ing his sickness and have gone through the long. tedious process of nursing him back to health. There is no need then of readjusting him to his old environment, and is much less difficulty in adjusting the environment to him when he is really i'll than when he comes home apparently we'll When the home is manifestly unfit, boarding the child out in another, family has been found better than sending him to an institution.
 The hospital chose a. visiting teach CT" rather than a nurse, for though there are a, few medical facts which she must be able to note, they are easily learned and most of her duties are non-medicaI, She must be able to so arrange the home care of the! child that he will have rest and quiet and yet be happily occupied; and later on, she must be able to plan his return to school or his entrance into industry in such way that it will not overtax his strength.
 For the tubercuIous child we have demanded open-air schools; for the cardiac child we must demand school rooms on the ground floor, and ,un- graded classes where he can make up his lost time without too much effort and perhaps work only half time, be- ing dismissed before the closing hour with its rush and crowd.
 The tuberculosis wage-earner is a familiar problem; we know fairly well what he may do and what he must on no account attempt. We 1earn as much about the wage-earner with a damaged heart and be prepared to provide for him as we'll.

THE TOWN BEAUTIFUL
 MOVEMENT NO. 3

The street cleaners may pick up every scrap Of paper EIouseholders may rake and comb. their neatly trim med lawns. But if the people of a. town persist in maintaining upgly buildings, the town will always offend people of good taste.
 Our laws preserve jealously the rights of the individual. Every, mans house is his castle. If he sees fit to paint it a shouting combination of blue, purple and orange, he can do it. The law can ot interfere. Many ad- vanced reformers demand a closer re- gulation of the development of pri- vate property. They would have plans for any prospective building inspected in advance by a. building commission, which should have power to reject anything that would lower the appear ance of the town.
 Much can be said for such an idea. Yet when you consider how munich pal office is filled, how the oliticians would enjoy serving on such a com mission, with it's possible chances of graft, proposals for any such regula- ton will go very slow.
 People who contemplate any kind of building should consider not merely the costs and income of it, but it's eff feet on the town as a whole. A flimsy structure of tin and gingerbread does more harm than it's taxes are worth The worst offenders are not always the cheap builders. Some men who invest large sums of money, erect flor i'd and conspicuous structures that are ridic cu1ously unfit. If such builders could hear the remarks of their neigh bors, they would need no regulation by building commissions.
 A building dating back to a towns early history often stands long after it's use has past. Paint judiciously ap- piled will at least make it inconspicu- ous. If it is not worth a good coat of paint, it isn't worth standing. If it has any appearance of being a ram shackle, it inJures nearby real estate, and is not a profitable investment for the owner.

A notable scarcity of office room exists in Bridgeport. at this time. For many years stabowe the street. offices have been discounted in the business world of Bridgeport except by the pro it difficult to get more than three per cent. on their investments.
 These conditions are found to have been nitigated materially during the past year with the great influx of new business enterprise and 9. canvas of the larger buildings in the mercan- tile section of the city shows today that but Few available offices may be had.
 buildings have been completely filled for more than two months. The last office in the Security building was contracted for yesterday. In the City Savings Bank building it was reported today that but three or four were va cant with a similar condition in the Connecticut Bank building. The Meigss building has not had a vacancy within two weeks time. The Lincoln building is filled.

Heading off Heart Disease Preventative Work Among Children Necessary Cope
 With Rising Death Rate,


Apparently while we have been fighting one enemy face to face. an- other has stolen upon us from behind. New York has reduced her deaths from tuberculosis from 421 per hum dred thousand in 1870 to 169 in 1914; but during this same time her deaths from heart disease have increased from 74 to 169.
 The experience of New York is re- peated in other cities. In Worcester. Mass, no less than 21.5 per cent. of all deaths in the industrial population are caused by organic heart disease; 15-2 per cent is the proportion for the whole population of that city.
 The situation, or rather the reaIiza- 'tions has come upon us suddenly. and sTe.arA not equipped to deal with heart disease as we are with tuberculosis: yet it is clear that we shall have to cope with 1t and devote to it the same study and the same persistent effort to get at underlying causes as we have given to tuberculosis ever since the eighties
 Catch 'Em Young
 Several articles recently written for medical journals show how similar are the methods needed in the prevention and cure of heart disease, to those we are familiar with in the case of tuber- cuIosis. In both, it is in childhood that
 
 both the symptoms are slight and lat ent and the treatment must be pro longed and persisted in after all signs Of real trouble have disappeared. Both depend greatly upon environment for cure; and in both, home care is be- ginning to take the place of institu- tiona13 care.
 Both leave the child handicapped and needing vocati onaI training in some, occupation which will not make too great demands on his strength.
 The Massachusetts General Hospi- tai, Boston, has been making an inter esting experiment in the home care of children with heart disease and with diseases which threaten the heart such as chorea and rheumatism. At first these children were kept in the hospital for weeks or even months, but the results were discouraging When they went home not only inn proved but usually looking in the best of health it was impossible to make the parents believe that the greatest care was still necessary. So relapses came, and the children returned to the clinic sometimes in a worse condition
