WOMAN IN
 MOVIE HOUSE FINDS
 HERSELF BACK HONE

It isn't often that a person can be several thousand miles from home, and suddenly be transported in the wink of an eye right back again, but that was the experience enjoyed in Chicago recently by Mrs. Lester Ruf- ner and her son, who have just re- turned from the East.
 While in Chicago Mrs. Ruffner and the boy went into motion-pjc- ture theater. The auditorium was crowded, which made it necessity for them to find seat well towards tlie front. They were enjoying the pictures when suddenly the youfrEs- ter cried out in an excited voice:
 That's iiy daddym
 AStonished, Mrs. Ruffner looked around. and then looked closer at the film.
 Sure enough, there was tlic arena director of the Prescott Frontier Days, as big as life, seated on his white horse directing the 1921 con tests.
 The picture proved to be the Ford weekly news reel, a section of which was devoted to the 1921 Frontier Days of Prescott. Seeing it, was like getting a breath of Arizona air. It was well filmed and cleverly titled, Mrs. Ruffrer said when relating the incident to friends here yesterday.

LEADERS ADOPT PROGRAM
 IF TROOP WORK

A constitution of the Prescott Scout Leaders association, and a program for activities of scout troops and for special features in scout work were adopted at a meeting of the as sociation at the Owl last night. The meeting was presided over by Marsh Smith, vice-ptesident, and was at tended by group of representative business and professional men who are active in scout work.
 The constitution of the association, reported by Rev. Alfred w. Nichols of the committee on constitution, pro vides for membership of scoutrnasters and assistants, troop committeeman and members of the scout council; for meetings to be held on the third Thursday of each month; and for the. usual officers. The objects of the association are to further the physical,
 mental, moral and spiritual welfare of Boy Scouts.
 To this latter end, the program drawn up at meeting of scout masters at the Yavapai club week ago and submitted last night by. Louis Bunte, secretary-treasurer of the association, tends. The program provides for the order of scout
 meetings, from formal opening to the scout benediction. Of especial inter est were the general instruction in troop and patrol administration, scoutcraft, personal hygiene, and other topics, and division into patrols for instruction or groups for exami- nation, model building or other work.
 The program was adopted after a discussion of its merits participated in at the invitation Of the chairman by Tom Bate, A. H. Favour, R. E. Morrison, Harry Southworth, IT,, A. R. Groenink, scout executive, M. B.,I Hazeltine and MT. Nicholls. In al short talk Mr Nichols declared the test of any program would be in putting it up to the boy" Don't | tic the boys to the apron strings of an organization" he said. His re- marks were warmly applauded.
 Warm applause was also given a l talk by w. E. Patterson, Scoutmaster of Troop 3, on ideas and ideals in scouting, in which he emphasized that the worth of a -scoutmaster IS his ability in the care and guarding of youth, that his purpose was to incul- cate in the boys under him self-re- liance and initiative, and that the re- ward of the scoutmaster in his work l lay in the staunch American citizen ship which will be developed by his work. The address was an excellent example of high ideals eioquently and forcibly expressed.
 Those present at the meeting were i Governor Thomas E. Campbell and Col. James H. McClintock, state his torian; Dr. (. E. Yount, Dr. R. N. 1 Looney, Dr. H. T. Southworth, Rev. | Father Can1ilo Torrente, Dr. E. Lee Howard, Rev. Alfred w. Nichols, l M. B.

MAYOR HYLAN SAYS
, HE HELPED TENANTS
Praises Coming Home Show
and His Committee on Rent
Profiteering.

I'VE are all quite prepared to ac-
knowledge the ben-iicient purposes OF
such movements as the Own Your Home
Exposition in helping to promote good
citizenship through construction Of
homes, which in turn Is the best insur-
ance OF good government" said Mayor
Hyian yesterday in discussing the COM
ing exposition, which will open In the
Sixty-ninth Regiment Armory on April
22 and will continue until April 80.
The Mayor. In talking OF the housing
problem In this city and the methods
of relief adopted, urged that every one
plan to attend the exposition and learn
how home ownership may be attained.
"One OF the important contributing
factors toward the encouragement of
building construction particularly OF
small homes and moderate priced apart
ment houses was the tax exemption or
dinance sponsored by the Mayors
Housing Conference Committee" the
Mayor said.
New York. like every other city In
the nation, encountered a serious hous-
ing situation about three years ago. The
war had caused n complete stoppage In
building except for war purposes. This
condition lasted until the armistlce was
signed. when an acute housing crisis
arose. There was n scarcity In living
accommodations and many private
houses and apartment houses and tone
ment houses Eot into the hands OF
specuiators.
"The people, whose minds had been
absorbed In the war. realised in 1918
that there had been no new homer
erected since the war began I'm 1914,
and that the city was behind IN living
accommodations for about 100000 per-
sons. Up to the time OF the war new
living accommodations for 100000 per.
sons were provided annually.
Tho shrewd realty spectators saw
what was coming and bought UP prop
erty. They saw a chance to clean up
by turning the need OF the people into
gold.
"Thc majority OF landlords were faiI
to their tenants. But there were those
who seized the opportunity to squeeze
their tenants. The Mayors Committee
on Rent Profiteering got after these
landlords"

New improvements are the short cut
route to any rapid development. These
ind the release OF timeworn restric-
tions are what have paved the way to
one OF the quickest. IL not the greatest,
development In the history of Long
Beach. More than 500 new homes have
been erected within less than half a
year. marking the first phase OF what
promises to be record breaking year
Of building. improvements and increase
In population.
One of the most important improve
ments at Long Beach has been the erec-
ton of the new steel and concrete auto
mobile bridge which crosses that span
of water between the island and the
mainland. The structure, which Is now
nearing completion. will be ready in an
other month at cost to Nassau county
of 100000. BY early spring visitors to
Long Beach who travel to the resort by
automobile will find this Improvement q
much needed one. One OF the great
drawbacks to the development Of Long
Beach has been this antiquated bridge
and roadway.
These changes and the interest that
has been manifested In making Long
Beach more Of an all year round resi-
dental colony than merely a summer
resort are facts which with the open
winter have added much to the pros.
pect Of an early buying season at Long
Beach. One Of the principal all year
round plans has been the keeping open
OF the Hotel Nassau throughout the
winter months. This. combined with
the rental for the winter of the largest
number OF private residences In the his
tory Of the beach, has done much to
keep going the idea Of making 1t an all
year round colony. The two principal
social organizations of the community.
the Lido Golf Club and the Long Beach
Yacht Club. have likewise kept open
house throughout the winter. Within
the last six months. during the good
weather which has been so favorable
for building operations. moro than 500
new homes have been erected In an area
that was formerly barren waste OF
sand. Land has been opened up into
streets. paved sidewalks and building
lots where formerly were sand heaps
and unimproved waste.
Speaking of the development OF Long
Beach from the time 1t was nothing but
a barren waste of sand dunes, former
Senator William III. Reynolds, founder
OF the development, says:

TO BUILD MORE HOMES
IN ELMHURST, QUEENS

The extension Of the tax exemption
ordinance for another year has induced
w. r. Gibson to go ahead with the
erection of ninety-three one family and
eight two family houses in Tlmhurst.
where he has already built and sold
about 200 houses of this type. The
operation will involve an estimated out
lay OF $4,000. Mr.. Gibson. speaking
or tho announcement of the plans OF
the Metropolitan Life Insurance Com
pany to build apartment houses to rent
for 50 a room. said:
'If the average person would only
take his pencil and paper and do a
little figuring he would see where at
q comparatively small expense to him.
self he would soon be able to buy q
home OF his own at the same ratio OF
50 per room per month. Take for ex-
ample a house selling for $500. This
as a rule can be purchased for $1,000
down. The carrying charges on such
a house would figure out about as
follows:
1.-THE first mortgage would be 5000
and at per cent. the prevailing rate,
would amount to $50 a year. A second
mortgage, generally taken back by the
builder, would mean another $l41 q
year. Figuring water at IS O year,
insurance on 5000 a year would mean
50 and land taxes would be sl2. All
this would mean a total of $3.50 a
year carrying charges, or $40 month
for six room house.
Now IL Mr.. Tenant, who Is willing
to pay SO per room per month, making
a monthly total OF s54. paid himself
that extra s25 bonth 1t would mean
$500 a year that he had saved toward
the purchase of a home OF his own"
