ing at her in incredulity, in fear, in
fury. his own face whittier than hers.
The Seigneur sat down In his chair
heavily. seeming to collapse there.
Then Brousseau flung his fear aside
and laughed. and 1t was the most evil
laugh tnar Hilary had ever heard. He
addressed Rosny: and as he spoke he
continued to advance toward him. un-
til he was shaking his fist in the old
Seigneur's face.

"But this Is different, Rosny," he

Rosny CROPPED her way to his feet.

days would fight at the drop Of the

THE HOUSING PROBLEM

Despite the discouraging report Of
the census, Columbia has housing
problem which is growing more
acute as the summer months approach
with their influx of families coming
to educate their children.
The University is closing the winter
term with the largest enrolment in
its history, but the authorities expect
that all records will be surpassed
when the fall term begins. With the
facilities for students already crowd
ed, the city has a grave problem in
the student situation alone.
Columbia is expanding industrially.
The establishment of new enterprises
means the coming of more labor and
the increasing of the honsing problem.
Real estate men say that the scar
city of houses has never been so great.
If a property owner wishes to rent or
sell his property he needs only to hint
the fact and he will have a prospec-
tive buyer at his door. The high
prices, which buyers are willing to
pay, show the great demand.
Columbia must face the housing
problem as community. To depend
upon the laborer to cope with the sit
uation is unwise. He is not strong
enough financially to meet the test.
Action must come from some loan
organization, composed of local busi-
ness men, which will lend out money
for home building at reasonable rates.

THE NEW BOOKS
"Le,send"

Legend" by Clarence Dane, author
of First the Blade" Regiment of
Women" etc. is a. mystifying interest
ing story. 1t is unique in that the
heroine is never shown personally to
to, the reader. 1t is a posthumous
story of one of the most fascinating
of fiction's heroines. The heroine is
a woman of genius. big of heart and
mind. All this is brought out in a
masterful way by the author, and yet
you never see the heroine herslf. II
is an astonishingly real picture of a
character and a career.
The author makes the reader see
through the eyes of others, chiefly
through the eyes of one who was pro-
foundly jealous of her. With singular
vividness Malada Grey's true charact-
er emerges from the warped account
of the woman who tries to create a
false legend of her genius.

HOOyER,S ANNOUNCEMENT

OF interest to large number O
people was the announcement of Her
bert Hoover that he would accept 6
nomination for President only. from
the Republican party. This informa'
tion, unexpected by Democrats in
many parts of the country, and not
particularly news for the Republi-
cans, settles one of the most interest
ing phases of the campaign. The Re-
publicans, with a number of candi-
dates waging a fairly active cam
paign, are not especially overjoy-
ed at Hoovers announcement. He
may have many supporters among the
independents and the Progressive
Republicans. but he is far from
favorite with the party leaders. In
the Democratic ranks. Hoover's candi-
dacy. in spite of much opposition, was
looked on with favor from number
of quarters. Through him, it was
felt, the party might gracefully es-
cape from certain attacks. which are
sure to be launched against it other
wise, and at the same time receive
creit for work accomplished. In a
badly confused race with no impress
siye, candidate it seemed Hoover
might be selected as the standard
bearer of a rejuvenated party. But
Hoover has removed the possibility by
his announcement.
Whether or not he squandered his
chances in so doing, his definite
stand is to be admired and commend
ed. Certain it is, that if he is nomint-
ed by the Republicans in June the
public will witness some political
sensations in the next two months.
