The porch located as he suggests af-
fords more restfulness ana privacy than
one built after the older fashion across
the front. 1t becomes more suitably the
summer living room of the family And
why have a porch if it is not used thus ?
Then, too, the effect of a front porch
upon the entrance to the house needs con-
sideration. The entrance is to the house
what the face is to the person. To make
it attractive, artistic and hospitable and
then hide it with wide shadowing
piazza is like hiding a lovely face con-
tiually under a sunbonnet.
Front doors are for publicity; porches
for privacy. He who keeps the two apart
takes the first step out of that architec-
tural confusion which often marks the
inartistic and least comfortable dwelling.

WELL-NOURIsHED CHILDREN.

Commenting on the fact that a recent
survey in Detroit showed foreign chill
dren were better nourished than children
of native parents, a Photographer says,
Sometimes we get a little light on why
Americanization is such hard work"
The children in the foreign quarter
may be unwashed and ill-clOthed, but
somehow they thrive. The investigators
find, too, that there is no great mystery
about it. They thrive mainly because
they are fed on plain, simple food
The same situation is found in the
humber native homes as compared with
homes of the better class" The poor
children, in Detroit and other cities
where the matter has been looked into,
are actually better nourished than the
rich children, because rich children us
ually get rich food and that is not good
for children.
1t is the old story of Daniel and his
young friends, who lived on "pulse" and
water, and were found "fatter in flesh
than the children of the Babylonians.

A Standing Guard Needed.
(Rar.rp Times /

4 Wells River man was so unfortunate
as to drive his automobile over a bank
so that he could not get the vehicle back
on the road. He had to leave the
machine over night When ne went back
to the machine the next day, various
articles had been stolen from the car.
His next visit to the car was two days
later, and he found that someone had
made off with the tires, the clock. off the
dash, the tools and everything of value
that could be moved. It's the same old
story; a standing army is necessary to
protect an automobile which happens to
be disabled and has to be left over night
on nearly any public thorOughfare. The
situation makes a poor commentary on
the calibre of some of our residents.

there is no danger in burning dead

An Impossible Strike.
(New York Times. J

The very railroad employees who have
voted general strike on Oct. 80 must
know that their project is mad. At any
time the complete tying up of the railroad
systems of the United States would be an
outrage; under present circumstances it
would be crime Through much suffer
ing and after many sacrifices the country
is struggling back to fuller work and
brighter hope. Yet here it has q threat
of chaos come again-of industrial paraly-
sis, commercial ruin, disease, want and
starvation. The unemployed have besen a
subject of anxious national concern !; but
now 100000 of the employed propose to
quit work, and to force tens of millions
into idleness While thousands of workers
in the great industries have accepted
lower wages, as E%n~ary part in the
road men are talking of plunging the whole
people into fear and misery rather than
admit the need of a reduction in their pay
The thing seems lunacy. No great strike
ever succeeded without the support of at
least part of public opinion. But gen
eral railway strike now would from the
start meet with swift and overwhelming

THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN.

The celebration of Columbus day on
Oct. u brought out a fact regarding the
name America which is not generally
known, and well worth knowing. It
makes an interesting study in etymology
as well as in history and patriotism.
Every schoolchild learns that the name
America was applied to this continent
by German map-maker in honor of Am
erigo lin Latin, Americus) Vespucci, an
Italian discoverer and explorer. YES
pucci was of German origin, and his first
name was merely the Italian rendering
of his old family name Emmerich. That
name in turn, was derived from an earl
Ter form Amal-ric, which in modern
German is Himmelreich, and means
kingdom of heaven.

justifying the American custom of call
