EXPERT SAYS RENTS
WILL SOAR ) YEARS

1t will be at least five years before
high rents decline to a normal level,
Lawson Purdy, executive director Of
tho New York City Charities organi.
cation and nationally known as a
housing expert, predicted here today.
He estimates that IL will require a
new building expenditure of $1,000
OOO. 900 year. for period of ten
years. to provide sufficient housing
for New York's population, assuming
that tho flow OF immigration will
continue at It's present rate
1--WE should not deceive ourselves
on the facts" said Mr.. Purdy. "rhs
facts are that high rents will not
come down while building remains
at n standstlll.
Rent profiteering has been a factor
in New Yorks housing problem, but
not such a large one as II has been
made out.
THE shortage of apartment build
ings has been New York's chief
trouble. and until they are built
again on tho wholesale scale there ia
little possibility Of obtaining suffso.-
ont room TO house the population.

ject of a discourse by the Rev. A.
l.. Bixler, pastor Of the Fairview
Methodist Church, in which he gave
a few pointers to single men, among
them these:
Make no promise to a young lady
you do not know.
Seek only the company Of pure,
chaste Christian women. Be manly
and masculine. A real woman
doesn't care for a jellyfish or fop
for a husband. Dress neatly, al
ways appearing well groomed; but
don't be a dude.
"A woman can't live on love
alone.
Don't be deceived by the ex-
ternal appearance of women, for
they have fifty-seven varieties of
ways for putting up their hair and
adjusting apparel.
Marriage without love and a lit
tie romance is likely to be a hell on
earth, and the Standard Oil Com
pany hasn't money enough to pay a
man for going through a life of it
Excepting a wife is an important
high cost of maintaining a home.
and an equally important social
question on account of the low price
OF divorces.
Don't leave your courtosies and
kindnesses at some hotel on your
wedding trip.
"a woman cannot live on meal
tickets alone She must have love
and hats.
Don't tell your family troubles
Fight it out with your wife II it
takes a lifetime"
Don't make a packhorse OF your
wife. The eight-hour man with a
sixteen-hour wife, needs to unionize

Psychology will be an important

Of Physicians and Surgeons at Co.

Those who began their course in
the medical school were told by DR..
J. A. Fordyce, professor of derma-
tology, in his opening address, that
physicians of the future must not
only be able to administer to bodily
ills, but mental ones also.
Speaking on 1.-The Faculty and

part:
Bodily ills are often less danger

theories of minds distressed or dis

This story is far below the stand
ard one is accustomed to look for
in the work of Sir Gilbert Parker.
There is lack of unilication in the
plot, and the characters are not OF
the sharply drawn type, yet the
story, which concerns Ireland at tho
period of the French Revolution, is
one of some little interest.
Dyck Calhoun, a loyal Irish gen
tleman, has fallen in love with
Sheila Llyn, whose father he has
the misfortune to be suspected OF
killing. Dyck met him without be-
ing aware that he was the father OF
Sheila, Through n mistaken idea OF
chivalry he serves a prison term OF
eight years for tho crime, of which
he was innocent.
Released from prison, he enlisted
In the British navy and took a lead
ing part in the More mutiny. See
ing that the mutiny was doomed to
failure, he took command of the
ship and sailed her to the West In

to take a decisive part in a battle.
For this he was given his freedom.
Invited to join in n treasure hunt,
Dyck and his companions are sue
oessful, and the contents of the
treasure chest make him n wealthy
man.
Sheila turns up in Jamaica, where
