a writer In Popular Mechanics Maya

ropes, brushes, etc, for the proper per-
Torrance of the work In q substantial
and workmanllke manner; all the ma

be thoroughly cleaned before being
painted; all nail holes, joints, cracks

with putty; all jolnted work to be sand
ed smooth before applying the second

The specifications then itemize what

BAD HOUSING CAUSES MISERY
New York Tenement Expert Describes
Evil conditIons--Liviug In Small
Place Best After All.

The three great scourges OF man.
kind, disease poverty and crime, are
largely due to bad housing, accord
ing to John ]. Murphy, New York's
tenement. house commissioner, whose
oficial task 1t is to study and remedy
as far as possible improper housing
conditions In New York city. Mr..
Murphy, who is the only tenement
house commissioner In the United
States, recently had published an ar
ticle on housing conditions, based on
bis Investigations in large centers Of
population, in which he said:
There can be no question that the
three great scourges Of mankind, dis
ease. poverty and crime, are in large
measure due to bad housing, In its
broadcast sense. Intemperance In many
of its most repugnant forms may be
traced to the fact that so many clti-
gems are obliged to live In homes in
which they can take neither pride nor
comfort and which make the saloon
seem desirable by contrast.
bad housing Is especially detri-
mental In It's consequences to the chill
bred reared under Its influence. In
many cases the evil influences Of en-
vironment can never be eradicated.
The need for the erection Of institu-
lions for the blind and hospitals for
the child victims of tuberculosis, spinal
meningitis and other diseases of like
character Is greatly intensified by bad
home conditions. The employee lIv-
ing IN house inadequntely lighted and
ventilated is unable to perform his
task with proper energy and intelll-
gence. Women compelled to live In
such houses develop tendencies to Irri-
liability, which frequently lead to fam
lily disruption.
bad housing tends to increase the
tar burdens Of community by requir-
ing larger expenditures for remedial
service, which might otherwise be elm
mated. The lack Of proper cleanliness
and decency In the exterior and inte-
rior of houses tends to reduce the self
respect of the occupants. Note how
eagerly the family which has even
slightly improved its financial stand
ing seeks buildings with more attrac-
tive exteriors and better decorated
rooms. It win also be found that as
families descend in the social scale
one of the pangs most keenly felt 10
the necessity for the occupancy of
quarters In buildings whose general APP
pcaIance indicates that they are occu-
pied by the miserably poor"

Specially elaborate preparations for

women Of social prominence will act as
hostesses at the club, and scores of
debutantes will be on hand to dance
with the men in uniform.
The Gonzaga club building was re-
Gently remodeled at cost Of $4,000
and all the facilities of the club and
theater have been placed at tho use
OF the men in uniform through the

appeal to the men in uniform are BILL
