Unsightly Roofs
Editor Of The Tribune,

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: The unsightly roof tub nuisance
has been growing in the past few years
at an alarming rate, and am glad to
see by letter in your paper that q
protest is at last made.
Some years ago wrote the Architec-
tural League asking If it's powerful
organization could not undertake some
sort of protest against this disfgure-
ment Of the city. No answer, and I
have not noticed any action taken by
them.
Now 1t would seem high time for the
city commissions to "do something
about it" when the tubs are being in
stalled on roofs on Fifth Avenue, plain
ly visible from the street.
No foreign city would tolerate for
an instant this sort Of thing. The ex-
ample Of few fine buildings in town
shows that roofs can present a neat ap-
pearance. There is no necessity for
this tub eyesore. C. A.. W.
New York. March Is, 1874.
New-York tribune., 1921-03-23
SO long as to become almost state
ly dowager among the nudes.

80 long as to become almost a state
" dowager among the nudes.
1t is new style paganism that
Mr.. Rumsey presents--a Bolshevist
woman, heavy limbed, thick necked,
animalistic, with hair cut short
There are no horn-rimmed spects-
cles, we gather, and The general at
mosphere Of the piece savors Of
Moscow rather than Greenwich VIII
lage. But the insinuations of this
bobbed-hair paganist are obvious. It
is certainly entitled to be exhibited
on its merits. Fortunately there is
plenty of true pagan beauty in the
museum to preserve that honorable
adjective from corruption by this
passing use of it to describe twen-
tieth century vagary. The Egyptian
rooms and the Greek rooms, so ad-
mirably arranged and containing
such steadily increasing wealth Of
new treasures, deserve constant re-
visiting by all those who are dis
couraged by contemporary confu-
sions. There is blissful perma-
nency about these beautiful frag-
ments that makes passing styles in
politics and art Of such minor I'M
portance that one can enjoy them
quite cheerfully and wish them a
merry life while they last.
New-York tribune., 1921-03-23
Three Months Hard Reading

"A Rushing boy, charged with dis
orderly conduct, has been sentenced
to three months reading in the Public
Library.
"You ought to be ashamed Of
yourself, standing about the streets. y
said Magistrate Kochendorfer. i'm
posing sentence. "You ought to get
acquainted with Dickens and Haw-
thorne. Probation Officer Hamill will
introduce you to the library"
Now, this is inspiration, ranking
in magniticence with the discovery
at Sing Sing that prisoners are moro
likely to go straight if they have a
little baseball and less solitary con-
finement-just like human beings
outside the bars.
The guile of a parent who knows
his boy is less likely to get into
if he spends his spare time
reading than If he loafs on the street
is never more earnestly exercised
