ROME HOUSE HUNGRY
Shortage of Dwellings in Eternal
City Serious Problem.
One Hundred Thousand More Rooms
Are Needed to House Population
People Live in Immoral Con-
ditions Because Of Shortage.

Rome-The "house hunger" as the
lack Of dwellings is called in italian,
is increasing in Rome. According to
statement by Doctor Raimondi, mu-
nicipal councillor, Rome, a city OF
100000 inhabitants, needs 100000
more rooms to house it's population.
The surplus of people is now living
in unhealthy and immoral conditions,
Doctor Raimondi says. There are
some quarters of the city where each
room is occupied by from six to eight
persons in the greatest promiscuity,
and at Porta Metronia, one of the
poorest districts Of Rome, % persons
are living in three rooms.
Also at the very gates of Rome a
portion of the population has reverted
to the troglodytic period and lives in
grottoeS excavated in the hills, while
others have built straw hutS to house
their families.
This state of affairs is a conse-
quence of. the war On account of the
rise in the price Of building materials,
the construction of houses ceased
practically entirely for about eight
years. The government has tried to
meet the situation by appropriating
SOO,O0O,0OO lire Cat par $160,0O0,OOO),
to be lent at 3 per cent to workmen,
civil servants ETC., for the purpose OF
home building.
Such amount, however, is not
enough, according to Doctor Raj
mondi, for it provides only for the con-
structiOn of about 10000 rooms This.
together with 10000 rooms which are
being built by private individuals
without state subsidy. makes a total
of 10000 rooms, leaving 10000 more
to be built within the next three years.
A further subsidy Of 6O0,0O000O lire
is being agitated.

BOYS UNUSUAL EXPERIENCE
Black Snake, Pursued by Harvester
Crew, Seeks Refuge in
Boys Blouse.

Norwich, Conn.-Ray Davis, the son
of G. Warren Davis, had an unusual
experience with black snake. The
boy was lying on the ground in the
hay field where his older brother and
other men were getting in the crop,
when they stirred up a three-foOt
black snake
The snake made the best speed he
could to get to place of safety, and
as he loOped along the ground spied a
refuge in the bullying blouse of the boy
and darted in through gap where 8
button was loose Almost before the
boy knew it the snake was wrapped
around his body inside the blouse.
At once the lawmakers knew that
something was happening, for the boy
let out a yell that brought his brother
rushing to the spot He snatched out
the snake and snapped its head off.

WHEN Col. Edwin L. Drake,

WHEN Col. Edwin L. Drake,
w the oil pioneer, drilled his
first well in this country and pro-
duced a maximum of 25 barrels
day, the world was using fats and
. greases for Illuminating and lu-
brieating purposes and the auto
mobile was unknown.
Today there are more than H.
900 oil producers in the United
States, operating more than 275,-
coo oil wells. Their production is
at the rate of more than 100000
barrels a day.
Upwards of 100000 automo-
biles and thousands of tractors,
oil-burning ships, aeroplanes, SUBJ
marines, motor-boats and portable
engines depend on oil and its prod
ucts for power and fabrication.

This little Milwaukee lady wanted
to send her puppy to grandma in the
country Having quite knowledge Of
the United States postal service and
great faith in it's ability, she mailed
the puppy as shown above and special
ly requested that he be not tumbled
about in a mail sack. Not quite In ac-
cordance with regulations, but we must
not say just what the postal authOri-
ties did with the baby canine. We
think he reached his destination.
