TEMPTATION OVER.-HUNTINC
 SEASON ENDS

The hunting season ended Saturday night and with it many trigger fingers stopped itching and the temptation to shoot cartridges was eliminated from the sportsmen's trials. The birds have been very saucy during the season and apparently realizing their immun- ity were strutting about in numbers and not only single birds and birds in pairs have been seen in large quanti- ties, but whole f1ocks are reported right out in the open and the yarns be- ing swapped are of the might have been" variety, if the law had. not pro tected those bold ruffied grouse.
 The hunting has been directed to squirrels, rabbits and an occasional pheasant and some good bags have been reported. But the real old tim CTS, who like the sport of killing the larger birds with the thick breasts of white meat, delicious stuffed with chestnuts, have kept away from the woods to a great extent, not wishing to have temptation put in their way and not enjoying as sport the shooting of quardapeds.

the defendants at various times and places harbored and detained said FL mer E. Moffitt, against the will of the plaintiff and finally the defendant broke up the plaintiffs home and the plaintiff had to store her goods be- cause of the desertion by her husband and go and live with her parents.
 Through the defendant by reason of the promises the said Elmer E. Moffit has become estranged from the plaintiff and his affections in regard to the plaintiff have been destroyed so that the plaintiff thereby has been and still is wrongfully deprived by the de- fendant of the comfort, society, sup port and protection of her husband and the happiness and benefits she otherwise have received at his hands and has suffered great distress of mind and body"

BROWN IS GROWING
Rhode Island University Draws From
 Entire Country

Providence, R. l., November 20.-- That Brown is not provincial college and is drawing each year more and more men from outside the New Eng land states is conelusively shown by statistics recently prepared at the University. Twenty-six states, two American insular possessions, and four foreign countries are represent ed among the men in the undergradu- ate body at Brown this year. Of the total undergraduate enrolment, 26.21 per cent are from outside New Eng land. The Freshman class, the largest in the history of the University, with 32.62 per cent of it's students from outside New England, breaks all rec ords for it's high percentage of non- local men. Of the New England stu dents in the freshman class, 81 or 29.03 per cent are from Rhode Island, 65 or 23.30 per cent are from Connec- ticut, IA or 5.02 per cent are from Maine, ' or 2.50 per cent are from New Hampshire, and 3 Or I.08 per cent are from Vermont. Among the other states, New Jersey contributed 30 or 10.75 per cent of the first year men, New York 29 or 10.38 per cent, Ohio or 286 per cent, Pennsylvania 6 or 2.15 per cent. Outside of North America, undergraduates are now reg istered from Porto Rico, China, Pan anna, the Dutch West Indies, Hawaii and England.

Ziegger Heirs to Help Housing Situation by
Financing Homes for Buyers at Coming Auction

High living costs, coupled with con-
stantly mounting rentals, have turned
the attention of New York's homeseek-
ing masses toward the suburbs. With
the prospect of higher tax rate on
real estate for the coming year, ac-
cording to the figures published re-
Gently by the Board of Estimate, which
will compel landlords to further raise
their rentals, the indications. are that
this movement toward the suburban
districts will be accentuated to a.
marked degree.
survey Of suburban market condi-
tions shows that homeseekers are COM
peting with each other for homes. be-
cause builders have not been able to
produce sufficient new construction to
satisfy the demands of the overAowing
popuiation from the city's congested
In order to remedy in part this alb
normal situation and with the object
OF encouraging the building Of more
homes, the Ziecler estate has decided
to llqudate its vacant and improved
suburban holdings at public sale, and
has appointed Bryan L. Kennedy, auc-
tioneer, to sell it's property at auction.
The sale will be held in the auction
room at ID Vesey Street starting on
saturday, November 3, and continuing
each day until every parcel has been
sold.

William Ziegler, ir., in common with
other public spirited men, has taken
a deep interest in the housing situa-
ton. The result of these Investigations
convinced Mr.. Ziegler and his cotrus-
tee' Gladys Watson Ziegler, that the
remedy could be found in the utiliza-
ton Of vacant land. Also in view of
the scarcity of building loans to start
new construction. they have induced
the estate to advance the necessary
funds, up to a reasonable amount, for
buyers at this sale desirous of build
ing home, in the belief that building
Will be stimulated thereby

cation Of prices--a pre-war scale of
wages or commodity prices cannot be
expected for a long time yet.
Manufacturers with unprecedented
volume of future orders on hand are
aStening to take care of the bust
ness by increasing their factory floor
space. The source of these orders is
not alone American. Foreign coun-
tries, notably South America and the
East, have been cut off from their
previous sources of supply. This will
continue for some years to come.
IN the meantime American manu-
facsurers will supply the world. This

The list of concerns with which we

Secretaru Of Zoninq Committee


Prior to the adoption of the coming
resolution there existed in New York
absolutely no safeguards to protect
residen, districts against billboaras.
Advertisers were free to erect huge
signs wherever they wished, whether
the site chosen was opposite church
or warehouse, a park or railroad
yard, a home or gashouse. No To-
cality had any amenities which the bill
board was bound to respect-it cou' d
60 anywhere. A private dwelling had
no more rights in a res Dental district
than fences featuring theatrical pro-
ductions or tobacco.

property situated in residential dis
tricts from being put to any but the
