New York has forced the rent
sharks and profiteers to recognize
the human side of the rent ques-
ton. Nearly a thousand tenants,
who had been notified of eviction,
were given relief by the courts in
one day, and permitted to retain
their homes until they could find
other apartments. the time being
from three to six months. Rents
have been raised beyond all rea-
son or the ability of the tenants
to pay. One case revealed a raise
from 81 to $37 per month and
then to SOS per month for six

IN MEMORIAM.

On February IL, 1920, without
more than a moments warning
the spirit of DR.. R. E. Patrick
was called from its earthly to it's
heavenly home. Although this
sudden departure was heavy
blow to his loved ones and friends,
still we have the sweet and COM
forting thought to cherish in our
hearts that he was ready to go,
and that he who had witnessed
and relieved so much human suf-
fering, passed on to his reward in
apparently such a peaceful way.
The greatest shock Of course
was fet in his own home for he
left a devoted wife and seven
children all Of whom had reached
an age at which they could appre-
ciate fully a fathers love and
tender care. He was ever a
thoughtful, loving husband and a
fond, indulgent father and found
his greatest pleasure in the hap
piness of his family. All! indeed
"a precious one from us is gone,
A voice we love is still,
A place is vacant in our home
That never can be filled"
Nor is the sorrow and loss linn
tied to his own home and rela-
tives, for his prominent position
as an efficient, Christian physi-
clan, excellent citizen and
thoughtful neighbor made his life
one Of vast Importance and influ-
ence in the homes of many. These
feel with his family that his place
will be hard indeed to fill, for not
only was he sought for medical
advice but ofttimes when in trou-
BILE or in doubt as to what course
to take, many have found his
counsel indeed worth while, and
he gave it gladly, for he took great
interest in the welfare of his
neighbons, both young and old.
Surely, we all feel the loss OF
this one most keenly, but we car
comfort ourselves with the
thought that this parting is only
for short while, for we can make
our lives such that some day VIZ
shall all be happily reunited a
round the great white throne ant
there will be no more sad part
ings. May we live as he lived
that the world may be better fol
our having been among those wht
have had hand in it's affairs
May we, too
$50 live that when our summons
comes to join
That innumerable caravan which
leads to that mystic realm be.
yond,
I'VE go, not as the slave, scourged
to his dungeon,
But sustained and soothed,
AIS one who wraps the drapery OF
his couch
About him and lies down to peace
full dreams"

Romans Fondness for Amber.

Amber was the first precious stone
made use of for the purposes of per-
sOnal adornments Homer mentions
1.-THE gold necklace hung with bits of
amber which was offered by the
Phoenician trader to the queen of
Syria, and Nero, in one of his badly
composed verses to Poppaea's hair de-
scribed it as of an amber" shade.
The Romans valued amber highly, not
alone for its beauty, but also for the
medicinal qualities which they believed
it to contain. In their opinion, an anu
let of amber. worn round the neck, was
an infallible cure for ague or chills /;
ground up with honey and rose oil,
amber was specific for deafness, and
ground with honey remedy for de-
fectiye sight.

Some years ago Hetty Green paid a
visit, with her daughter Sylvia, to the
Connecticut village of Pomfret. They
stayed at an inn conducted by Miss
Vinton. On the evening of her arrival
Mrs. Green sent Sylvia to the attic
for a packet of love letters which
Sylvia had that day received from yari-
Gus admirers who had never seen her
and who ''loved her for herself alone"
The room they had taken was on the
top floor, because Mrs. Green believed
that syndicate had been formed to
kidnap her daughter and herself for
the sake OF their wealth. The letters
she read aloud for the diversion OF
the other feminine guests assembled
before the fireplace.
When the day came to depart 1t was
rainy.
