CITY'S LURE STILL STRONG
Movement From Rural Districts De-
clared to Be Menace to Welfare
Of the Race.

Every city in the United States Is
decrying shortage of residences. In
fact, the cities of Europe. iike the
cities of America, are suffering from
house famine. There simply isn't
shelter in the cities for the great num-
bers of people crowding into them.
These people do not come from the
skies. They have not been born and
grown to manhood and womnnhood
over night They were in the world
yesterday, somewhere. Today they are
crowding into the cities. That they
are coming from the farms there isn't
the shadow Of doubt. And thereby
hangs the most terrible menace the
race has faced for centuries, declares
the Columbus (O.) Dispatch.
Not only are cities becoming over
crowded. but In the small towns II Is
the same. The farmers are giving up
their places on the farms and going to
the cities and towns and villages. The
chances are next years census will
show tremendous decrease in the
rural population of this country; II Is
bound to do so. for there are more
people leaving the farms than are talk
ing their places on the farms-and 1t
isn't necessary to explain the reason
High wages in the cities, the worlds
war, the unrest, the uncertainty Of
everything-these things are operating
to bring about condition of affairs
that is going to cause the world a tre-
mendous amount of trouble.
We hear great deal about improved
conditions upon the farm. The tele
phone. rural free delivery, good roads,
the automobile, improved machinery
and labor saving devices-these things
all go to make life upon the farm
more attractive. High prices for pro-
duce go to make farming more profit
able. Yet in the face of all of this the
people are leaving the farms and COM
ing to the cities in such numbers that
shelter cannot be provided rapidly
enough to keep the rain off their backs.
In the final day of reckoning-well,w we
have no desire to indulge in pessimism
But who is going to raise the food for
the people Of the world If the exodus
from the farms continues?

Another subway story! Lawsee. the

This one has to do with another fat

tired; so was the rest of her.

ert," she said In her severest tone of
voice, what do you mean by offering
the lady one seat? She cannot sit in
It," Then turning to the woman, she
said in all seriousness: Madam, you
can have my seat, too; then you will
be able to sit down."
The fat lady stood the smiles of the
passengers until the next stop was
reached. Then she made herself con.
spicuous by her absence.-New York

Australia's Young Citizens.

The problem of destitute children
was recently considered by the emigra-
tion sectional committee of the Brit
ish national council of women at Cax-
ton hall, when Kingsley Fairbridge
described the work of the children's
farm schools in western Australia
Mr.. Fairbrdge who rs headmaster at
the schools, explained that the insti-
tuition was started in 1909 by the
Child Emigration society, when Il
party of destitute children was sent
out from England to Western Aus
tralia. The school dealt with the poor
est children they could find. In addi-
tion to tho education, which was sup
piled by tie government of Western
Australia. they received instruction In
agriculture. and each child turned out
by the school was new citizen for
Western Australia and potential
farmer.

Japanese Paper underelothlnu.

An excellent and durable quality OF
underclothlng fras been made OF a flne-
grained paper by japanese mnnufac-
turers. After the paper has been cut
to pattern, the different parts are
sewn together and hemmed. and the
places where the buttOnholes are to
be formed are strengthened With cali
co or linen. The paper is very strong
and at the same time very flexible.
After u garment has been worn few
hours. II will interfere with the pers-
piration OF the body no more than do
garments made of cotton fabrics. The
paper Is not sized, nor Is II 'mperme-
able. After becoming wet the paper is
difficult to tear. When an endeuvor
is made to tear 1t by hand It presents
almost as much resistance as the thin
skins used for making gloves.
