The cooperative apartment. from
a homemaker's viewpoint, should
combine the attractive features of an
up-to-date suburban house and the
conveniences of a modern city apart
ment The suburban house which does
not contain a porch or open fireplace
would be considered incomplete. and
stand small chance OF being sold. True,
such features add to the already
burlensome cost of Il house, and would
increase the price of cooperative
apartments, but evidently home buyers
are willing to pay for such features
since few private dwellings, are now
built without them.
Preference for ownership OF an apart
ment to a private house Is dictated
largely by the fact that occupants are
relieved of the care of providing heat
and hot water. maintaining grounds.

that make strong appeal are ample
light. space and a garden-like setting
with attractive vistaS of lawns. trees
and shrubs. The automobile has made
the outlying sections readily accessible
and has removed the objection OF many
TO committing.
A block of land In the suburbs
could probably be purchased for APP
proximately the price of a fraction OF
a. city block. With an entire block
for a site an architect could plan
more desirable suites than could be
designed for a building occupying only

penetrate and dampen solid masonry

tudes such walls are subject to con-
densation on the inner surface, result
ing In the deposition of moisture on

result Is injurious to plaster and mars

might be added that the continual
deposition Of moisture in this way is
insa nitary.
Another consideration in favor of
Turing masonry walls before plaster
ing them ia the economy of heat and
Of fuel resulting from the insulatory
effect of the deadair space created
by the Turing strips. This is impor-
tant, in view of the fact that approx
mately 30 per cent of the heat lost
in dwellings escapes through the
walls.

Warns American
Women Danger Too
Much Slenderness

New York, Feb. 21.-(AP)-The
American woman who grew slender to
win the approving smile of fashion has
drawn upon herself the disappearing
frown of science by that same action.
Spurred by reports of widespread i'll
health among women who died too
much to conform to the slender styles
of the present, 25 eminent physicians
and scientists open a two-day confer
ence in New York tomorrow with the
hope of evolving a normal weight
scale for adults.
The conference was called by the
American Medical Association at the
request of the Delineator magazine. 1t
resulted from attempts to answer
about 10000 letters from women to
the magazine which revealed the
alarming fact that this fad for slender
ness which has swept the country to
its remotest villages constitute an
actual menace to the health of Ameri-
cas- womanhood and potential mother
hood" said the official announcement
of the conference which was issued
yesterday.
DR.. Wendell c. Phillips of New York.

cal Association. will preside.
The effects of too much dieting-and
also of overweight-as regards tuber-
culosis. glands, skin, heredity and ner-
vous disorders. will have an important
place in the discussion. The primary
object, however, will be to find the
normal" weight, so that those who
would diet may know how far they
may safely go.

Only One Death

This extraordinary record indi-
Gates the connection between speed
and fatalities" Mr.. Goodwin said.
THE real reason for the absence of
fatal accidents is. that automobiles
have not been able to go fast due
to the poor condition of the roads.
If we could only get into the minds
of all motorists that human lives are
more valuable than time. the number
of persons killed and MANNED on our

Bath Republicans
Seek to Get Control
Of Next City Council

Especial to the Kennebec TournaD
Bath, Feb. 21-The coming week
is to see stiff fight waged by vari-
Gus candidates for the city council
nominated on Republican, Demo-
cratic and citizens. Although Mayor
Charles H. Cahill is seeking re-elec-
ton on a Democratic and citizens
ticket and is without Republican OPP
position, the Republican nominees
are putting in their hardest ticks to
capture the city council which it
hopes to control in joint convention
and thus have the naming of the
subordinate officers.
The campaign is unique in that the
Republicans by formal vote at their
caucus IT used to make a mayoralty
nomination. Some advocated an en-
dorsement of Mayor Cahill by NOM
ination, but the caucus refused to go
that far. Many of the Democratic
nominees have sought endorsement
on citizens ticket. and one or two
Republican nominees have adopted
similar tactics.
Both Republican and Democratic
city committees have organized for
the year and are developing their
linz of action, the former having
C. n Sheriff J. Horace Mcclure as
their chairman and the latter having
named Alderman Charles c.
Toothaker as chairman.
Both sides are planning to scour
the city the next few days in order
to bring about the registration of as
+ ny possible voters, hitherto I'M
registered, as possible.
