NEW BIDS MAY SOLVE
PROBLEM OF SCHOOLS
Combined Tender on Three Build
ings Expected to Bring Cost
Within Appropriations.

Engineer Commissioner Bell is con
sidering the advisability of asking for
joint bids on three proposed school
buildings which had to be held up
recently because contractors found
they could not bid on them separately
within the appropriations.
Col. Bell said it might develop that
some of the builders would find that
they could quote lower prices by bid
ding on two or three of the buildings
as one job. No definite decision has
been reached, however.
Should this proposal prove imprac.
ticable the only alternative is for the
commissioners to wait until Decem-
Der and seek additional funds from
Congress. 'SAf three schools in ques
ton are the %4 nor Park, Brightwood
Park and aE,Cfher at Fifth and Bu
chanan streets.

reply in the affirmative, according to
the London Daily Telegraph.
Miss Rebecca West, however, has
other views, and these she expressed
at the second of the series of lectures
and counter lectures given at the Lon
don School of Economics recently in
aid OF King Edwards hospital fund.
She would not even subscribe to
the generally accepted definition OF
the home, which, she said, was really
state of resignation to the male will.
According to Miss West a process
of sex reversal is slowly but surely
taking place, and men are becoming
more like women-ergo, women are
having to become men.
The modern fashion in Oxford
trousers was quoted to prove the point
and the moral was that men were be-
coming so ultra-feminine that they de-
sired to wear two skirts, which is

HIS MILLIONS ARE
A BIG ATTRACTION
COCOANUT KING START ED
SOMETHING WHEN HE ASK
ED ADVICE OF PUBLIC.

NEW YORK.-Leopold Schepp,
aged multi-millionaire importer, who
is known as the "cocoanut king,
started something when he called on
the public a few weeks ago to tell him
how best to dispose OF some OF his
wealth.
Just now it is costing him a small
fortune in salaries for a staff engaged
in opening, classifying and replying to
the suggestions he is still receiving in
wholesale quantities from all sections
of the United States and Canada and
from South America and Europe.
In three weeks after Schepp's ap-
peal was broadcast in the newspapers
more than $4,000 letters and kilograms
reached him, 95 per cent of which
were anything but the noble, altruistic
suggestions he desired The vast ma
jority seek to make wholly selfish,
personal touches" and the proportion
OF this type of replies to his request
has all but discouraged him.
The worthy suggestions, pitiful
in his great bulk of mail, are
receiving careful consideration, how
ever and are the first to be answered.
Acknowledgements are now going out
at a 1000 a day rate and within two
weeks the special staff assigned to the
work expects to have caught up with
the incoming food
According to Louis Ritter, Mr.
Schepp's confidential secretary, fewer
than 5000 non-personal communica-
tons have been received thus far.
