Noise and Quiet in Average Home
BY LYDIA LIE BARON wALKER.

The woman who has a very quiet
house Is often apt to envy the woman
who has noise about her, If It means
that she has the Joy of little children
But the mother who has the con.
tinual clatter feels sometimes as Il
she would like to have the quiet
Neither is the perfection of home life
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1927-02-04

But it is possible to instill activity
into too quiet home, and to encour-
age quiet in one that is too noisy.
Then both become more coy and
hoYnelike.
The woman who has no little folk of
her own can have young life about
her is he chooses. There are many
women with no children whom young
folk delight to be with. These women
have q youthful spirit and an apprecia-
ton of youth that makes them know
what young folks like and enjoy.
Coupled with this knowledge is the

FIRE DESTROYS
.CH|LDREN'S HOME
Disaster Follows Recent
Burning of 0rphanage When
so Lives Were Lost.
BY the Associated Press.


QUEBEC, December 17.-Quebec
was excited today over the destruction
of another children's home maintained
by the Sisters of the Good Shepherd.
Their orphanage was destroyed
wednesday night, with an estimated
loss of so lives.
The building housing the Academy
of st. Louis and the st. Jean Berch-
mans Pension was swept by flames
last night as firemen were clearing
the ruins of the Hospice st. Charles
Orphanage, where 36 bodies were re-
covered. Fourteen of the st. Charles
Orphanage children were still unac-
counted for. as the boys of the
academy escaped into a blizzard.
The academy building is located
within a stones throw of the Provin-
cial Legislative buildings and the
homes of some Of the most prominent
people of the city, many Of whose
children attended the institution.
Fourteen boys who were in the
dormitories of the siX-story building
when the fire started reached safety,
led by nuns. although two were
slightly injured when they leaped into
snow banks from windows. Two
nuns suffering from burns were sent
10 hospital after they had remained
in the building to make sure all had
escaped.
The origin of last nights fire. like
that of the Hospice st. Charles, was
not clear. although police said they
had been informed that two men had
been seen leaving the yard of the
institution shortly before the blaze
was discovered.
Only four walls remained of the
building when the blaze was eXtin-
guished. Damage was estimated at
$3.50 900, partly covered by insurance.
A verdict of accidental death was
rendered by a coroner's jury in the
fatalities of the Hospice St. Charles
fire, although Fire Chief Donnelly de-
clared that had a night watchman
been employed much of the loss of life
might have been prevented. The
coroner's jury suggested that more
effective supervision be exercised
during the night and that automatic
sprinklers be installed in all buildings
of this kind"
A difference of opinion developed
during the days investigation. The
sisters of the orphanage declared that
had the firemen erected their ladders
at certain points more lives might
have been saved.
