The rabbit hunting season, which
has been open since October /,
closed January I. Rabbits were
reported as plentiful this year and
many fell prey to the hunter,
although the conditions for hunting
for some time after the opening of
the season were not just right on
account of lack of snow. Many
hunters contend that it is mistake
to close the season so early in the
winter, maintaining that the hunting
is good for at least two months more
and that the rabbits are in their
prime at this time Of the year.

LIVING ROOM FURNITURE
SUGGESTIONS ARE GIVEN
Large Pieces Must Be Placed Far
Apart to Afford Proper
Sense Of Balance.

In placing living room furniture
the first thing to think Of is the
placing of the pieces which are large
in mass. They must not be close to-
gether, but on opposite sides Of tha
room, 30 as to give q feeling OF bal
anoe. A4grand piano is usually the
largest mass to consider.
The next largest mass is the dayen-
port, which should be placed GONE
where opposite the grand piano and
have some curved lines to have a
pleasant unity with the curves OF the
grand piano. II it ~ An upright piano
then the davenport can have rectan-
gular lines
A decorated cabinet always makes
a nice mass against a flank wall usu-
ally to balance tho fireplace. In Its
decorative colors il can furnish the
keynote for the colors in rug, cur
tains and furniture covers. Next,
comfortable upholstered easy chairs
can be grouped around tables holdin g
lamps, which make convenient
place for reading and conversation.
Then writing desk, not too large.
should be placed near a window
where the occa asional letter or note
can be conveniently written. Last
comes the occasi onal chair. which can
be drawn up to the easy chairs to add
to tho group OF conversationalists
or to a table for a game Of cards.
There should always be four, and
they should be light, yet comfort
able.

the top. The town planncr, surveying
the territory AS whole. may take 4
very different view; he sees that il is
often less costly TO acquire second
size than to oVercrowd the first; he
realizes that midst the scarcity OF
nany things there is no want of
space. and that congestion is not due
to lack of land
Some truths seem too obvious to be
readily credited: men are prone 10 Try
clever and complicated devices to at
tain the same end = more devious
route. Perhaps the nation is feeling
specially poor, but to produce more
wealth or to waste less seem too sim
pie methods OF enrichment TO be po.-
ular. Oppressed as we are. too, with
the. miSerieS of overcrowding and
housing shortage, how hesitatingly
does the simple remedy of building
plenty of good houses secure full rec
ognition. Similarly. with towns al
ready unbearably congested and their
street traffic in danger of being re-
duced to crawling pace by its excess
sive volume, the idea that congestion
would best be relieved if we deSisted
from crowding, or traffic most eff
fectually be reduced by better distri-
button OF people and buildings is much
too simple. to be readily accepted. In

Iof the lower rooms in adjacent build
|ingS, whether themselves high or low,
are depressed by the erection of
higher buildings which diminish their
light and obstruct their ventilation.
1T is true that one advocate of higher
buildings gave as his reason tho
pleasure OF living on the highest
floors, but he overlooked the fact that
the higher the buildings the smaller
must be the proportion of people who
can have the benefit of. living at the
top.
The conclusive argument against
high buildings is that no real gain
ing them. AS hitherto used, they
have so far deprived each other of
light and air and so seriously con-
gested the traffic in the streets as
largely to destroy their own value
and to deprive themselves of reason
ably comfortable access, even IL they
could be spaced so as to allow proper
light and air. If the streets could be
laid out wide enough to carry their
concentrated traffic without congeS-
ton. the total area covered would
then be little, if any. less than that
required to provide for the same com
munity with buildings of normal
height.

HAROLD BELL WRIGHT
NOVEL A BIG HIT

A crowded house received Princi.
pal Pictures screen version OF
when Mans a Man." the popular
Harold Bell Wright novel. at the
Iris Theatre Wednesday.
Since Wright is Americas most
popular author. 1t is safe to assume
that two-thirds Of the audience were
Wright fans. II this be true. the
picture can be called q success. for
there were no disparging comments
as is usually the case, by those that
read the book.
Aside from the excellence Of the
cast. the most interesting feature Of
the photoplay IL the fact that the
scenes are the identical ones de-
scribed in the book. The picture
was made in Williamson valley and
Prescott. Arizona, and the real
Cross Triangle ranch of the story
is shown.
The western atmosphere is correct
in every detail. and the thrilling cpl
sodes OF the story build up to .
climax that is positively unusual
The ending cannot be called ''un-
happy" and yet the hero does not
get the girl" Still the audience
does not feel cheated. for the man
gains something else so wonderful
that the finish OF the picture leaves
a little glow OF satisfaction with the
observer.
