Entire Building Renovated

A report on the summer activities
at the local Y. M. G. A. and the plans

| members. according to General Secre-
| tary c. H. Barns. The fall and winter
program begins October first.
Following is the report submitted
last evening to a meeting of the board
of directors by Secretary Barnes:
The summer months have shown
the usual activity as to use of the
shower baths and swimming pool and
unusual activity in the use of the hand
| ball court. During weather uncon-
ductive to indoor sports n group Of
young business men have kept the
court busy afternoon and evenings
during the entire summer. The game
was stimulated by repainting and inn
proving the playing surface of the
court-the work being done by our
| own staff. The greatly increased de-
| mand for this game has demonstrated
the need for additional space for hand
ball courts.
Opportunity was taken during the
summer to make repairs and repaint
parts of the building that especially
needed attention. The shower bath and
swimming pool room was entirely re-
painted in white. which has greatly
improved its appearance. The physical
department Offices and parts of the
gymnasium proper were reprinted, the
entire boys department was redecorat-
ed, the general Secretary's office was
refinshed and the lavatories were
repained and the ceilings done
over. the work being done
by our own force. The bowling alleys
were planed doyn by experts and
then finished by our men. This puts
The alleys in first-class condition and
they doubtless will be more popular
than ever. Throughout the entire
building the floors have been cleaned
Of the old finish and reoiled and the
furniture has been revarnished.
Camp
Camp Hazen. at Chester, Conn,
conducted by the State Y. M. c. A,
was very successful and New Britain
did its part by furnishing n group of
boys to attend the five older boy lead
ers. Very good reports came from the
camp and there is no doubt about its
usefulness, especially to those associa-
tions that have no local camp. The
camp is beautifully located on Cedar
Lake and provides accommodations
for 225 boys. A large dining hall and
tent houses were erected this year,
adding to the comfort of the campers.
Our Boys secretary and assistant
physical director assisted I'm the man

regular camp period n conference was
held for High school boys. A delega-

HOME OF TOLSTO| MAY bE TURNED
 INTO COLLEGE
Daughter of Famous Russian Novelist Wants Estate
 to. Be Open to All

! YASNAYA POLYANA. Russia, Dec. 14.-Miss Alexandra Tolstoi, the fay orite daughter of Count Leo Tolstoi, the novelist and chief literary figure in Russia during the half century pre- ceding his death in 1910, is the leader Of the movement to save the great writer's home from decay and to make rere on the estate a pouular un- fversity wheer lovers of Tolstoi's writ lngs and creed may come, study and even settle indefinitely.
 Tolstofs was a universal mind He does not belong to Russia entirely" said the famour writer's daughter,
 and for that reason I feel that Eng land, France and the United States have an interest in this historic place The Soviet government is doing what it can to preserve the home and main tain it as place for pilgrims, but it l hasn't the funds. Anyway, the ma terials must come from abroad, and 1 have been promised by Kalenin, chair man of the Central Executive Con- mittee of all the Soviets, that contri- buttons of materials or money will not be interfered with or diverted"
 Miss Tolstoi. who is a vigorous type of woman and bears physical and in- terecutal resemblance to her father, has been in Russia since the general war. She was a field nurse during the war, and after the revolution, has been imprisoned several times, once for eight months in the Lubianka dun geons of Moscow, and was arrested as member of the famine committee during the summer for few hours,
 The Tolstoi home is in a condition typical of those few Ruissan homes which have escaped the ravages of revolution. The roof has not been painted for seven years. As a conse- quence, the tin has rusted and is let ting in water that is rotting the raft. CTS and making dislocations in the walls, so in a year or two the house will be beyond repair. The chimney flues are breaking open and threaten at any time to let fire into the wood en portions of the house. The lat ticed porch, used by TQlstoi and his family in summer is already minus one corner. The tiny 'IVilla Thor eau," a small house built some 50 yards from the home and once used to accommodate visitors in summer, is tumbling down.
 The home is now occupied by sever al members or relatives of the Tol- stoi family, thankful for this refuge, and engaged in keeping open the home for visitors and preventing thefts of manuscripts or other souve- nirs, with which the home is crowded Without money to buy food, the occu- pants have been obliged to seel their farm animals for lack of grain to feed them.
 It is estimated by Miss Tolstoi that $100,O00 will be required to restore the homestead and other buildings.

LOCAL LUMBER COMPANY WILL COOPERATE WITH RESIDENTS
 IN CONSTRUCTION OF HOMES

In the days of our forefathers each was his own architect, contractor, fur niture maker, and general Jack-of-all- trades, His isolation made this neces sary.
 Even in the present day the larger part of home owners are placed in a very similar position from the fact that they do not feel that they can afford to pay an architect. and partly because the average home costing loss than $6,000 does not appeal to the architect for many reasons. This has caused a rather deplorable situation regarding what is known as the small house.
 In some states architects have con- tributed plans which have been put in book form to relieve this situation and also some of the larger lumber companies have extended their serv- ice plans to provide an architect eith. CT at small cost or as part of their free service.
 Following along these lines and join irg in the movement for a greater and better Bisbee. the Gibson Hines Lum. Der Go. is installing an attractive ad dition to their already neat building store, a service room where home builders may examine plans and talk OCT their ideas of requirements.
 This room will be comfortably fur. n.shed and will show the different kinds of building material: hardware, paints, beaver board. desirous wall tilts and the like. There will be many plan books and helpful ideas secured and everything will be done to help their customers build their homes ar. chitecturally attractive as we'll as con venient and comfortable.
 Going further than this, Smith states that they will gladly furnish the services of their architects to make any changes desired or even to

Boxers Wife His Manager at Home
 And at. Ringside

BOSTON, Dec. 14.-"You'll have to see my manager-shes out in the kitchen telling the cook what to get for dinner" says Johnny Downes, Boston lightweight, when a promoter calls at his home.
 His manager is his wife. She has 1'handled his business" for more than two years and he has had 40 success full fights.
 Whats more, Downes says, having a wife for manager pays, because she sees that you eat the right sort of food, don't stay up too late and keep in good condition all the time.
 'T took a course in business admin istration at high school" says Mrs. Downes, formerly Virginia Lodge of Malden,' Mass. Handling a boxers business is just like any other busi- ness. Only it is more interesting when you happen to be married to the fighter"
 Mrs. Downes tells Johnny what to do in each fight just before he leaves his dressing room. His trainer han dies him in the ring, but she studies

 Do you advise girls to manage box ers?" she was asked.
 ''Only if they get a life contract with as good fighter as I have and If he makes as good a husband as mine does."
 Downes fought preliminaries in Cleveland, his home, before going to Boston, where he is very popular.
