? Building
Better America to Result
From Coed Housing Plan

A stronger and better America will
result from the movement for better
housing and living conditions in this
country, according to Shelby NJ. Har-
risOn OF the Russell Sage Foundation
in an address.
"a strong nation" he continued, "de-
pends to large extent upon whole
some and heathful living conditions,
both in the home and in the neighbor-
hood; and such conditions depend ip
turn upon the provision of the right
sort of house in the first place, and in
the second place upon the mainte-
nance of high standards of municipal
hOusekeeping-that is, upon the Sc
turing of clean, safe, light and sani-
tary surroundings for the homes of
city dwellers. and of those in the
smaller centers as we'll"
Mr.. Harrson's address, which was
given under the auspices of the de-
partment of household economics in
Teachers college, dealt with methods
of improving community conditions,
and among other things discussed the
social survey as an instrumentality
which has been effectively used to
that end. In that connection refer
ence was made to the survey of social
and living conditions being undertak-
en- by the Committee on Plan of New
York and Its Environs, to the chair
manship of which Frederic A. Delano
was recently called upon the death
Of the late Charles ID. Norton.
The speaker said: zone Of the
problems of the city planners is to
determine or predict as accurately as
possible future trends in the move
ment and distribution of people and
the location and shifting of their eco
nOmtc and social centers Of activity
throughout neighborhoods. cities and
regions. Certain population studies
are therefore of assistance to this end
and some have already been under
taken. The committee realizes, how
ever, that many other data on the
movement of population will also be
needed, and studies are therefore be-
ing made of building and housing
trends as well as industrial and eco
nomic factors in the distribution Of
population.
1.-THE purpose of city planning Is to
make cities convenient, healthful and
attractive places in which people may
work, play, learn and otherwise ex-
press themselves in well-rounded liv-
ing. City planning. however, is not the
only means to this end. Many roads
lead to the desired goal; city plan
ming is one. The common objective,
of course, does not pat them all in the
city planning field"

Yankee Genius Floods
World With Everyfhine

make bold to believe that in the
United States today at the close OF
this first quarter Of this Twentieth cen.
tury there can be seen an ingenuity in
plot-making and fertility in devisine
situations recalling that which was to
be observed in France In the days of
Scribe and Dennery and Sardou and in
Spain in the days Of Lope de Vega and
Calderon, two periods Of dramaturgie
dexterity and Of abundant productiv.
ity. The American faculty Of inven-
tion, which has filed the world with
Yankee contrivances. seems to have
been directed suddenly to the construc.
ton Of plays says Brander Matthews
in Scribners. am aware that to say
this is to lay myself open to the retort
that our plays are as machine-made as
our Yankee contrivances, and even
that we are engaged in quantity pro.
duction rather than quality production
II thus cornered I should have to con.
fess that there may be more than n
little truth in the charge; but should
proffer as my rejoinder the statement
that not few of the American plays
Of this century are as interesting In
the library as they are in the theater.

Smoking Introduced in
America BY the Chinese

The Indian long has enjoyed the rep
utation of having invented the pipe
and beQueathed to white men the Joys
Of tobacco. Recent discoveries in the
West indicate, however, that the In
dian In turn may have inherited the
smoking habit from much earlier Pc
riod, and that smoking was introduced
into America by the Chinese at some
remote time. 1t is certain that the
East Indians have been smoking for
some two thousand years.
Long before tobacco was discovered
smoking had become fine art. Baby
Ion doubtless had many smokers who
were as particular about their pipes
and brands as any one today. They
smoked different woods and herbs and
paid special attention to blending
them to get the desired flavor. A
piece of wood was burned to char.
coal, and smoked In an ornamented
pipe. When the charcoal was red
hot a powder was dropped on 1t and
the resulting smoke was inhaled.
Throughout Central Asia in remote
times smokers were common and were
exacting about the tobacco" or what
ever 1t was they smoked They used
the gum from trees, bark and many
aromatic herbs and smoked various
kinds of flowers.
Soldiers have been smokers from re
mote antiquity. The Russian military
camps still yield pipes. The ruins of

that smoking must have been common,
Many Of the pipe designs were most
elaborate.-New York Times.

Figures on Home Ouners

Statistics that show the percentage
of home owners in the United States,
and the revelation made by them
prompted the Department Of Com

information for public use. In 1900,
461 Of every 1000 families in America
owned their own homes, while in 1920
the percentage had dropped to 456
in each 1000. OF the 4S states 20
showed an Increase. while the District
of Columbia likewise gained.
The ten leading states in respect
to home ownership In 1920 were. in
order: North Dakota, Wisconsin,

The DeWolf Hopper Comic OPP
era Company at Polls Theater Is
still a big favorite and all indica-
tons point to their remaining in
Washington until the regular sea-
son opens.
The splendid productions and
popular operas they have given
the Washington theatergoers have
gained them their success.
"Erminie" this week Is a pro-
duction that leaves nothing to be
desired.
Beginning Monday night the
ever popular Wang" is the opera
to be presented.
This is the opera in which Hop
per made his biggest success, in
which the elephant plays such a
prominent part, and in which
Hopper sings his famous song, "An
Elephant on His Hands," which
has made Hopper as popular as
his Casey at the Bat"
Some Of the operas could easily
be played for two weeks, but the
policy announced by the manage
ment of a change of opera each
week win be adhered to. Hopper
has big repertoire, and it is
hoped that it will be possible to
present it in it's entirety.

CHESAPEAKE BEACH
Short RecreatiOns.

Hundreds of Government clerks
and other city workers are TAX
ing advantage of weekend out
ings at Chesapeake Beach. The
resort is only an hours ride
from the city, and the idea Of
having seashore attractions so
near at home is appealing to
ever-increasing numbers. Many
of the clerks are making it a
practice to go to the beach early
Saturday afternoon and remain
until Sunday night. Some rent
cottages and others put up at
hotels and boarding houses.
This bayside resort is delight
fully situated on high cliffs over
looking the broad bay and with
all of its amusements picturesque
ly built over the water. The
boardwalk is lined with varied
attractions, including the Dodgem,
the Derby racer, the merry-go-
round, bowling alleys, shooting
galleries, billiard tables, and
what not.
The Carolinians play daily for
dancing on the brand new pa
vilion. The bathing beach is one
of the finest near Washington.
Fishing is excellent, either from
the steamer pier or from boats in
the bay. The picnic grounds ap-
peal to those who like lunch in
the open.
