A Shortage of Homes

Wherever goes he hears complaints of high rents of the difficulty of finding places to live; of extravagant prices for real estae that s real estate on which residences stand. There simply not enough homes and The Nations Business for Octo- Der tells why:
 America needs homes. In 1890 4s per cent of people were home owners in 1910 this per cent dropped 45 and today it is estimated to be only A. Home-owning going down-to what? To tenantry, absentee landlordsm sums that disease of society which has been raging at the heart of the major European nations since Watts with his steam engine made it possible to centralze industry?
 The stoppage of building during the has left million homes short. That which has long been industrial handicap has become national danger Nrhe need of houses to stabilize the labor market may become demand for homes to save a nation. Thus it hapens that the most important thing to be said about industrial housing the present time is to watch for point of view in approach ing it. A vision is needed"

PEACE ON THE STAGE

Actors and managers have reached agree ment which satisfies both sides and to the public the joys of the theater It just in time because presently the strike, which entertain ing and novel among the dreary list of industrial conflicts would have become bore if not a hard ship.
 The actors strike supplied fun makers with teriaL Stage folk to the workaday world like butterflies and that they should be profundly dis turbed about their rights is amusing to many; that they should have their commonplace struggles for living seems strange somehow. The strike gave a revealing glimpse behind the scenes.
 That people of the theater work hard in a plp- fession always precarious is not realized by occa- sona patrons of the playhouse. That they serve an important social purpose when their entertain ment Is of the lightest- few willing to admit.
 Statistics of the New York health department show that the death rate last winter when influenza was raging lessened by keeping places of amusement open. Figures from many cities carefully compared and checked. The danger of in lection in public gatherings more than offset by the encouragement of morale. Naturally the rule has it's limits
 But diversion and distraction indispensable. To be healthy and must have pleasure A chorus girl a minor comedian may be doing as much to help humanity behind the footlights a bacteriologist bending his microscope.

KICKING IN

It has been falsely charged that we have, during the present worlds series, been guilty of accepting gifts valued at great sums contrary to some law or other governing the acceptance of gifts by newspaper persons.
 In order to knock the props from under these rumors, we present below a simple statement of our gifts re- ceived (and given) as a result of the series. They are as follows: Oct. 3. To Ward Adams, 90 cents when we guessed wrong on the date the Cubs and Sox played the worlds series
 Friday. Agreed to give R. D. 1T. I twenty-five cents if the Reds copped 1 the pennant, and vice versa. fThis gift has not changed hands at this writing)
 Saturday. To R. D. H. twenty five cents when the Sox lost. Monday. To Henri, two bits when the Sox lost
 Tuesday. From Henri, a promise to 1 get out the C. B.. the Sox having won. Tuesday. From Brer Stanley, as- sistant state auditor, 10 cents when the Sox won, we having the short end Of a ten to seven hazard. Tuesday nite. A chance on a gifi of F cents from Br'er Stanley when he made the bold assertion that the Cubs never have beaten the Sox in a series. (Will someone write in and tell us which way this gift should go, giv- ing dates?)
 Total amount of gifts, real and may be, S1.47 and a promise.
 Let the rumor die.

The Snake Woman Coils to Strike at
 My Love and Honor
 No nymph in a deserted grove was ever lonlier than l, as I fingered by the fountain after Brother Jim had gone. Happy human beings, men and women, youths and maids. strolled close to me, but outside of the hedge. The path within the hedge circled the pool. It had been roped off when the lights went out, to keep careless mer- ry-makers from an unexpected cold plunge. Jim and T. knowing every nook and corner of the grounds, had crept under the ropes.
 No one would intrude, I felt sure, so l stretched myself on a bench and indulged in a half hour of self pity.
 Everybody seemed to be so happy everybody except me. Steps came and went, voices grew loud and soft on the further side of the hedge I recognized some of them and smiled to think how astonished the chaperons would be could they guess the number of dan gerous flirtations were going on that evening.
 Not that I cared enough about any body'S love making to listen in.p I wanted them all to hurry along and let me enjoy my misery by myself. Quite a procession of lovers passed some trading sterling and some coun- terteit coin. Presently came @ step I knew, then a question in Bob's voice and reply by Katherine Miller.
 Immediately. found I could be stil1 more miserable than I already was,
 Bob and Katherine were smoking cigarets. They paused on the op- posite side of the hedge. My heart stood still with terror. If Bob was going to kiss her, as that silly Fletch- CT Halnes had just kissed Madge Os- wald. l would simly have to scream, Not to prevent it, heaven was my wit ness. But to warn them to let me flee from the place,

 The light flared between them. could see their faces close together almost close enough for a kiss. Kath. crimes bare shoulder dropped towars Bob, and she struggled an unnecessar, long time with her cigaret.
 Then my Bob pulled himself ur straight and splendid. And on the, walked. ever so slowly, into the dee, darkness of the taller trees.

Jim Hams Latest
American.

For some years people have not given much at tention to the utterances of former United States senator James Hamilton Lewis. He said so many things that lacked the importance of fact that he came to be pretty generally disregarded both as prophet and as an observer. The impression came to be that he was seeing things.
 The other day in address before the Chicago Metchants' association he stated that in short time president Wilson would come out for the socializs ion Of the railroads the telephones, the telegraph and tho coal mines and he also said that public own eshp of all public utility property would be included in inc demands of the 1920 campaign.
 I've can hardly believe that Jim Ham is in close touch with the president He was so at one time but evsn in those intimate days we do not think the prcsident ever entrusted his intentions to such chattorbox Jim Ham.
 But if this should be true, it means that the resdent has determined to lead the socalisc forces of he nation hereafter and that next year the chief issue will be socalization. The president could hard k hope to carry any considerable part of the demo- cratie party with him on such issue.
 The president has made several remarkable blun dcrf but we believe that he is capable of such one as Jim Ham predicts

 After the Sox lost their fourth game we ran out of capital. Henri Behoteguy, the astute reporter for the Arizona News Service. raked in our last penny on the results of Monday game.
 Unfortunately we had sworn off on betting when Henri breeZed in on Tuesday. but we did make this simple arrangement with him: If the Reds won Tuesdays game, we'd donate an even hundred pounds of our fast ripen- ing hegari to Henri's chickens; if the Sox won, Henri would get out next weeks issue of the Cancels Back. Neighbors, you know the results of that hair-raising ten-fnning game, Next week our reader will hump the humps with Henri as pilot. We here with disclaim any responsibility for an accidents that might occur. We know our reader will enjoy the trip because as a literary pitcher, Henri can pitch a no-hit game, and as a pinch hitter, he bats pretty close 1 to 1000

The Sport

At the breakfast table the Sports wife passed him another stack of wheats and also a pertinent remark like this:
 Say, Carlo, don't forget to leave me something before you go to work this morning.
 -Wattaya mean, leave you some thing?

 Forty dollars, where do you get that stuff?
 -Ain't that what we agreed on? Wasn't you sposed to give me forty each pay day to run the house and pay the bills and you keep the twelve fifty yourself?
 Yeah, sure, but I got some out side bills to meet and I gotta pay the light bill today. And I gotta pay fifteen on the doctor bill.

What Would You Do?
c. G. H., Editor

Impressions gained from reading bulletins from the White House are to the effect that the Presi- dent is on the road to health; that with returning strength pr. Grayson has difficulty in keeping him in bed, and having been beaten in this clash with his phy- sician, Mr. Wilson takes his CO.,. finement phlosophically and has started to kid the rest Of the fam fly about his indisposition.
 Upon being impressed as above, we fell to wondering how Mir. Average Man would behave in the Presidents place. and we con
 eluded the incident would have trsnspired something not unlike this:
 The scene is in the presidential sick room. The sleeping man in the bed stirs, opens his eyes and sits up face. Gosh, I must have beer asleep. Who-where-who- yes had a little headache and they chased me to bed. Oh, boy! I fee like a million dollars this morning Guess I'll get up and see what tht bunch over in the senate is up to-"
