 Then do you appreciate what a blessing windows are-so lcng as they're closed! Especially when other peoples windows are closed, as well as your own, for then you have double protection against the yelps of practicing sopranos and the roars of whisky baritoneS.
 Your own thin panes of glass can't safeguard you wholly from the maddening thunder of elevated trains, the clang of trolleys and the backfire of motors but they modify such racket bit. And that's some thing for your eardrums to be thankful for!
 Open your windows here and the dust sweeps through, piling so high between bedtime and rising that 1t appears someone has been working with a shovel.

Noise Unacceptable

Noise and dirt are at their das- tardly plaguing even when there IS respite from severe heat.
 There are few places on the is- land where you can escape the rim pounding of motorists changing tires; the fire departments sirens; the whistles of industry, of police men and of dccrmen hafling taxis; the bells of ambulances, of alarm clocks, and Of hawkers' wagons; the bangings of the ashcan squad rons: the blare of electric pianos and man-powered pianos, street bands and hand organs; the cater wauls of back-fence Toms and tab bies; the dogs paying at or begging for the moon; the frantic street brawls, babbling of foreign tongues; the spine grinding noise of children skating on pavement; the pltnnpy de-plump- plump of rubber balls bounced against walls by more shrieking kids; the mournful, un- intelligible chants of itinerant ped dlers; the mysteries and booming breakage of parties in apartments all about; the domestic discord, and jazz orchestra discord-and so on ad niauseam.
 On the streets wind blows dlrts III your eyes, down your collar, up your nostrils.

HOUD|NPS ESTATE
REVEALED IN RED
Liabilities Exceed Assets,
With Books Gone, At

BY the Associated Press.


NEW YORK, May 6-The estate
built on the white magic OF Harry
Houdini has gone into the red
Bernard Ernst. attorney for the ma
gician's estate, disclosed that. although
Houdini died possessing property worth
in excess of half million dollars, the
liabilities of the estate today are
greater than the assets.
"Overgenerosity" was the eXplana-
ton of the lawyer. He pointed out
that Houdini in his will left his books
on magic, valued at $500000, to the
Congressional Library Aside from the
books, which represented the bulk Of
his wealth, Houdini left an estate Of
$50, ,955. Against this are liabilities Of
S77.o65, the lawyer said
The will did not specify that the
library should be given to the Govern
ment if other assets were insufficient
to meet obligations. but during his life
the magician regarded the disposal of
the books in this manner as most i'm
portant. For that reason his widow,
Mrs Beatrice Houdini. carried out this
provision shortly after Houdini's death
in 1926.
The attorney said he did not know
whether Mrs. Houdini. who now is in
Florida, is dependent upon the estate
for income.
