MISS GUTMAN PLEkSES
 IN HADASSAH CONCERT
New York Soprano Gives Program of
 Jewish and American Folk Songs

An approciatlye but not a large audience yesterday aftesnoon heard Miss Elizabeth Gutman of New York in recital Of Jewish and American folk songs and other numbers at the Capitol theater, Shc was assisted at the riano by Charles Denoe Leedy. The recital was under tho auspices Of tho New Britain chapter of tho Eadassah society.
 Miss Gutmnn makes an excellent appearance and possesses q soprano voice which Is rich in tone and yol- ume. Her enunciation during the singing of the American songs was particularly noticeable because of its learness.
 The Jewish folk sengs met with the most popular approval probably because Jewish people comprised the greater part Of the audience. Miss Gutman rendered six of these songs, some Of which contained a vein of humor while others bordered on the more serious, in a most fascinating manner which pleased all in the audi ence.
 Of the assorted numbers "Vissi d'arte" from Tosca, ''rhe Lullaby" and the Spanish Screnade met with most popular approval My Rose" an Indian song. and Frog Went a'Courtin' " were the only two Ameri- can folk songs rendered..
 Mention should be made of the ac- companist who played with perfect case and aided greatly in assisting Miss Gutman.

Ky Dr. Clifford c. Robinson OCCUGATION AND HEALTH

Glancing through the American Contractor the other day I was struck with the thought of the great influ- ence of certain kinds ofswork on the health of the individual. The plumb ing situation was up for discussion. The educational director of the plumbing and heating industry gives US some things to attract our atten- ton. In spite of the large wage at- tached to the job, the craft of plumb ing is losing workers rapidly. If the present rate of loss continues. accord ing to the author, in quarter of a century the genus plumber will be found only in the story book or the museum.
 Here is health warning for the public. A large city only recently wound up 1O-year fight for health and sanitary sewage disposal by de- creeing that all outside priyy vaults should be removed and modern plumbing installed in two years. But there were not enough plumbers to do the work. The improvements have 10 wait and i'll health continues from the unsa nitary conditions on account of loss of workers from the trades.
 This is true of other trades as well. Officials report that during the last two years. in 17 building trades, there has been & loss of 60.000 workers.
 Another phase of the health situa- ton is this;
 A news item contains the informa- ton that building costs are so high. principally on account of labor short age, that thousands of would-be home builders are living in cramped apart ment quarters. The health of these families is suffering.
 Evidently tho workers have sought some other field of endeayor.. They have left the trades for the so-called white-collar jobs. Muscles and man. hood are twin brothers. The health of our nation demands m educated manual labor The life blood of our country must rally for health or we perish,
