But there are so many people who
never do pay dinner calls that it is
not fair to make these sweeping state

some one must be got to "hoId the

away. With such peop'e, though the
women of the circle managed to call

sort of tacit agreement that party
calls will not be expected from the
men because the only time they can
pay these is In the evening, and when
they do go out in the evening they
like to have some more substantial
diversion than paying calls.
So also it happens that in large
cities where distances are great the
busy business mf takes dislike to
going to friends house when that
friend may not be at home to receive
his call. 1t means sometimes an hours

need not consider 1t as requiring q

Einstein's brain gets into deeper wa
ter. He turns from his RELATIVELY
theory and begins studying electrons
and the Quanta theory. This theory
is that radiations such as light are
streams of flying particles Of matter
instead OF waves or vibrations in the
ether.
Such probably is the case with ra-
dunn.

With all the joys and thrills divins

For dreams that take away the

For dreams IN which my hopes 20

And goals on which I've set mine

change.
The committee on apprenticeship was
established by the New York Building
Congress at q meeting of the executive
committee of the Congress held January
10, 1922, in response to the demand on
the part of the building industry. not TO
create unnecessary numbers Of journey

development OF apprenticeship in the
building trades not by dictation, but by
acting in an advisory capacity with
similar committees from the various in

offered by the building trades that they
will attract young men in America who
are not ordinarily interested.
The committee proposes to cooperate

GREENWICH WANTS
ADEQUATE HOUSING
Holds Mass Meeting to Inquire
Into Reasons for Holdup
of Construction.

Business and professional men of
Greenwich. Conn. have taken vigorous
measures to remove the financial inn
passe which they declare Is holding up
the construction of homes in that beau
tiful suburban community. At a meet
ing held last Tuesday night in the
". M. c. A. auditorium attended by
prominent merchants. realtors, lawyers,
contractors. bankers, manufacturers
and architects the subject was thor
oughly discussed and a committee ap-
pointed to consider the advisability OF
forming a building loan association.
The lack OF funds for the construc-
tion OF homes was ascribed by most of
those present to the conservative busi-
ness methods employed by the banks
and to the legal restrictions imposed
on the latter as to the investment of
funds. William Anthony. a contractor
and builder. referred to bank appraisers
as Rip Van Wrinkles who have just
awakened from fifteen year nap and
were still trying 10 apportion the ex-
tent OF their loans to the values pre-
vailing in 1907. The building slump in
Greenwich. he said, was not due to
lack of labor or high wages, but to the
inability OF the builder to negotiate an
adequate loan on a house. On a $4,000
e1ouse he said he had found it impossi-
BILE to negotiate @ loan OF more than
80 per cent. t'If / could get enough
money" he concluded, II would build
solid TO New York.
Another speaker contended that so per
cent. OF the cost of house was a fair
basis for the making of building loans.
He called upon the banks not to loan in
Wall street the money they made in
Greenwich. but his plea was declared un-
necessary by A. w. w. Marshall. secre-
tary and treasurer or the Greenwich
Trust Company. In q statement made
after the meeting Mr.. Marshall declared
that his institution was especially anx-
ious 20 lend its money on mortgage in
Greenwich and that II had only a very
small part OF its total resources on call
loan i'm New York.
Another official OF the Greenwich Trust
Company who spoke at the meeting in
sisted that building costs were higher in
Greenwich than in White Plains. i. G..
G. Smith, an architect, replied that while
such was presumed to he the case he
thought that accurate statistics should
be compiled TO prove whether IL was
more expensive to build at Greenwich
tnan in neighboring towns.
On the motion OF y. Payson Hatch
real ectate man. John Maher Of the
Maher Brothers Coal and Lumber Cor
poratNpn was appointed chairman of the
committee 10 consider the formation OF
building loan association.

POURED INTO QUEENS

Building activity in Queens Borough
during the last year has resulted in the
placing of many millions in mortgage
loans by the various financial institu-
tons located IN the borough
In answer to an inquiry sent out ~
the Greensboro Chamber OF Commerce
to these institutions. aasking the amount
loaned during the year 1921 on Queens
Borough property. replies were received
from twelve, whose loans aggregated
$4,000, 600. No attempt was made at this
time to obtain report OF loans placed
in the borough by other than companies
represented locally. These win adj
many millions more to the total noted
above.
Announcements have been made dur
ing the year OF loans amounting to be-
tween 100000 and 100000 By the Met
ropolitan Life Insurance Company. most
OF which went to the Greensboro Cor
poration and the Rickert- Brown Com
pany for their developments in Jackson
Heights and Astoria, respectively.

Chalmers Corporation said yesterday
THAT the automobile has actually be-
come Il part of every day life to many
people has bean proved by the very
great number of cars which have been
purchased for use in their daily pur-
suits. one OF the most notable in
stances OF this is with the suburban
itc and people living in small towns
contiguous to the large centers. While
there ia in most cases, regular train
schedule maintained. so many people
have moved into the country TO escape
city congestion that train travel is
often overcrowded, and for these people
the automobile has established itself
firmly as a prompt means OF convey
ance from home TO office and office TO

we decided II would be most valuable
thing for US to exhibit our car IN tho

fortunate in being able 10 secure the
exclusive rights for showing an auto
