 Peterson Writes on Sanitation
 One of the featured articles in the convention annual was written by Plumbing Inspector Olaf A. Peter son, of New Britain, under the title of America First in SanitatioA.' His article follows:-
 This year marks the S0th anni- vcrsary of the installation of the first bath tub in the White House. This fact indicates how young IliOuttll GdlllldllOil Is anu dlSO " tisab rapid strides it has been making.
 We need only to so back eight years before the first White House bath tub 10 find the first bath tub ir the entire country. This original tub was made in Cincinnati by q cabinet maker and weighed almost a ton. It was seven feet long and four feet wide. The exterior was mahogany and the wood was lined with sheet lead. A pipe coil placed in the chimney provided the hot water.
 "The public did not welcome this novelty, for one reason or another, and ordinances were actually adopt ed in Philadelphia restricting the use of bath tubs. Virginia imposed a tax of s3o on every tub brought into the state.
 How strange all this sounds now, when the bathroom is the most inn portant factor in a modern homo end even the poorer can have one. The benefit that the bath tup has been to the health and comfort of the American people cannot ne csimated in dollars and cents but t i is a. great tribute to the ingenuity 1 and progressiveness of the Ameri- i can plumber. He is the man who ! has made it possible for the United 1 States to boast that it is the most l sanitary country in the world. Sani- ary comforts are so common today l that we do not think much about | them but look backward to the 1 recent past gives us much 10 be l thankful for"

New York, May 13.-There is shor, little theatrical alley stones toss westward from the Ho- tel Aetor that is like one Of those odd little streets in the London Of Dickens. It changes from suited s.- lencc to boiling activity every few hours.
 And when it bubbles with life there is always an arresting moment for the casual passerby. have seen a group of girls in bloomers tapping out the rhythm of a new dance there at 10 o'clock in the morning, and I have seen acrobats practising backflips and hand stands after midnight.

 There is story that one Of the great theatrical managers takes players there for talk before sign ing a contract. He believes 1t pres ages good luck. Many playwrights Ec there to mediate while in th- throes Of creation. On the Riaho theN place is known as "Shubert Alley"
 Around the luncheon hour it takes on the color of one Of those street scenes from a topical revue, churning with actors. Broadway re- portcrs. chorus girls and q soupcon ot booking agents and customers. 4 hurdy gurdy grinds out tunes anl often q street band adds oom- pdhs 10 the medley.
 Tho batter is professional lingo. . There is a good naturcd showing about, hoots and back pattinS. Stars are hailed by first nam $. Bcotleggers are there with the;r order books. Also racing touts with 1 hot tips. And vain toasters discus { sing the economic fear they call ambition.
