New York Citg. Juno 5. I920.

New York City. June 5, 1929.
 Three days of almost unbearable heat last week almost persuaded New Workers that summer had really come. Houses were closed and boarded up. Trains and motors sped to the coun- try and those who remained in town ranted and famed and tried their best to keep cool. Men were seen in the streets carrying their coats over their arms, and women were seen to dis card their "clochep hats and carry them, regardless, as they trailcd wear fly through the baking avenues and side streets. On Memorial Day, a sweating parade marched up the Ave nue and the drive. the participants firmly convinced that no veteran whose memory they observed suffered more damnable tortures at Gettysburg and Antietam than they were enduring on this exceptional May 30th, 1929. Then came cool breeze and a clear sky and things frightened up again.
 We have ever been among those who like New York in the summer time. We like the nights when the sky Is a sapphire blue. when the lights glitter and the crowds stroll lazily about, when the roof gardens are at their best and when the brainless and anus ing summer shows are enjoying mid summer popularity. For us, New York in summer has charm that we find in few other large cities. A ride up Riverside Drive, visit and dance in some outlying roadhouse, and the evenings make up for the days of tor rid heat.
 Atop the St. Regis
 For the first time we went the other night Co the now far-faced roof gar den of the St. Regis Hotel. high above Fifth Avenue and looking out over the green stretches of Central Park The St. Regis for twenty years or more the most conservative of conservative hotels, blossomed forth last summer with new addition, and the conserva- tive element of it's reputation gave place to an immediate popularity. Joseph Urban. Viennese scene painter and decorator, perpetrator of many bad things and some good ones, was employed to decorate three new res taurants. Down in the basement of the new addition Mir. Urban designed q horrife "Seagiade," where one may dance within four walls covered with many varied sea-monsters. On the first floor he designed another lunch con restaurant in the awful modern French manner and as the "piece-de- resistance he canopied the roof with a garden that set the town to talking. Borrowing his designs from Chinese Hawthorn vases, he we've golden vines and flowers against q background of deep ultramarine blue. Deep windows he set all about, so that one may look to the north over the Park, and Co the east over the river to the gleaming s gns of the National Biscuit Com pany Now one may dine there night ly with the new rich of the recent stock market boom. men who have grown fat and sluggish from the profits Of Radio.

Finding Quiet and Sunlight

To find quiet, peace and little sun light has become the aim of those New Workers who can afford such luxurles, Recently we lunched with great lady whose home rears upon the garden of sutton Place. After luncheon We sat upon the terrace looking out over the East River. watching the yachts pass by, the prisoners playing baseball on Governor Island. and the dull roar coming down from the Queensborough Bridge high overhead.
 Wherever there is an open space on the cast side, whether it be the garden of an orphanage, tiny strip of park, or a public square, exclusive residen- tial sections are being established. No longer must one confine ones residence to Park Avenue, with it's roar and tremble from the underground tracks of the railroad. Fifth Avenue has gone the way of commerce and apartment dwellers The small squares and by ways where the roar of the city IS somewhat dimmed is the city-dweller' r's refuge and the real estate dealers Eldorado.

WIFE ASKS JUDGE
 ID JAIL HUSBAND
Spends His Pay for Grapes and
 His Time in Cellar

Adolph kalinowski, &4, of IS John street, holder of long police court record, was before Judge Stan Icy J. Tracesli in police court today on charges of breach Of the peace and drunkenness and heard his wife toarfully ask that he be sent away. as she had reached the end of her patience and would not tolerate him. any longer.
 Michael MajeWshi, 8. of 2S WiI- CON street, was more fortunate, his wife taking tn" witness stand anl asking Judge Traceski not 10 punish him although he gave her q severe beating last sunday. She said her children had asked her not to push the case, and if tine court would warn him, she would be willing 90 run the risk Of a recurrence of the trouble which resulted in his arrest by Sergeant Focncy and Officer Do;y on charges of drunkenness, breach of the peace and assault.
 In the ease of kalinoWski, a scn- teHcc 10 the state farm at Norwich was imposed and in MaieWskiS case judgment was suspended and he was placed on probation so that a check might be kept on him for d reaSOn- able period of tinlc. KalinoWSki claimed he WAS ill and he appeared to be in d very weak condition. but his wife told the court he spent his weeks pay for grapes with which he made wine q week Or two ago. and since then he has spent most Of his time in the cellar, He chased her into the street about II o'clock last night, and she was in her bar@ feet and scantily clad when she ap- ycaled 10 Officer William Grabecii for protection.
 Kalinowski. who has been in jail times in the past few years bcCaus@ of his failing for liquor, told the court his wife spilled the contents Of a coffee pot on his back and then hi. him with the pot on the head, and he denied that he chased her out, He promised to stop drinking and be- have, but Judge Traccski felt he was in need of treatment such as is given at the state farm, and for that reason he did not send him 10 jail
 Mrs: MajeWski was bleeding from the mouth and the house was in an upset condition last Sunday, accord ing 10 the police testimony A broken mop handle which was us"l in the fight was in evidence, Mrs. MajeWskI having been unable 10 be in court on Monday because of the beating she took, still she wanted to drop the charges for the sake of the children. Majewski did not have the fight entirely his own way, how ever, the police having observed a slight cut on his face when they found him in another tenement in the house.
