The trick is to get to the car barns early IN
the morning. For nickel - or seven cents,
if you live in Cleveland - you've got home
for the day. realize that you'll get bumped
around little but, in exchange for that,
YOU II see lot of new faces, and might add
that most of them will be an Improvement
over yours.
Living in streetcar has many advantages.
There is constant change of scene; 1t you are
too stingy to buy paper, you can wait for
a passenger to throw his on the floor. Ii the
streetcar goes through rich neighborhood,
you may even pick up some magazines. And
who knows - if you are woman, after few
years you may marry the motorman
Den't Annoy the Animals
ANOTHER possible home is a cage at the 700.
l don't recommend this for married couples,
since, frankly. there isn't much privacy In a
cage; but for single chap it definitely has
possibilities.
The monkey house is probably your best
bet You might even be able to remain there
permanently without anyone knowing the
difference. In order not to look too conspicu-
GUS, suggest you remove your clothes before
entering their cage. Don't let's make prob
lem of it - if you are an ex-serviceman.
there is strong likelihood that you haven't
got any clothes.
If you are one of those lucky persons
who own pen that writes under water,
you might try living in swimming pool.
You could bathe and handle your correspond
ence simultaneously. You will find pool in
almost any back yard in Hollywood. These
pools come complete with springboard, rub
Der raft for story conferences and three bath
ing girls who look like Jane Russell.
If you are fortunate enough to live outside
California, and can't find swimming pool,
you might follow the example of fellow
know who lives in well. The only equipment
required is pair of hip boots and large
supply of carrots so you can read in the dark.
My friend says the communication service is
fine - he leaves home by the am. bucket
and returns by the fve-forty-fve. He says
the only drawback to living in well is that
the neighbors keep dropping in.
Try Haunted House
If YOU aren't a coward. you might solve
your housing problem by renting a haunted
house The back streets of Americas towns
are lined with fine haunted houses that are
empty simply because cravens are afraid to
live in them. A homeless young couple won't
hesitate moment to move in on the wife's
parents but if you suggest haunted house to
them "a far safer place in my opinion) they
turn pale and chatter lame excuses.
However. if you are the yellow-streak type,
I recommend tree A tree is absolutely safe
unless you walk in your sleep. and from the
top limbs you get a lovely view of the sur
rounding country. would suggest nut tree

shells can later be used for ashtrays.

 Personally, We are proud of the Waterbury Fire Department. Set speeches are of no value, and do the men little good, for as rule they come from the inexperienced, and are being said mainly for news paper consumption. We read them almost every two weeks, and the language is the same most of the time.
 Chief Campion, and Deputies Scully and Sheehan, Drillmaster McDonald,. and Supt. Schlosser and Capt. Holmes and the various con- pany officers are personally known to us; they are high class men, who command the respect and admira- tion of the public. They are not seekers of the limelight, as we all know their names are seldom used in the newspaper accounts of the various fires throughout the city.
 Remember friend-AlwayS say a good word for the Fire Department personnel; they deserve your loyal support at all times.

 iire-Fighting Force Lauded
"Out Easter"
 Observes New Men In Action
BY THE OUT EASTER

We are interested in the welfare Of our great city fire department. We don't think so much of '"The Long Sunday, which keep the men tied up for A hours, but then that is a question the board some day will probably take up, and provide a better working shift for all members. 'The long Sunday was established when the two platoon was first adopted, July l, 1919, by officers, now. dead" to the present personnel by reason of their forced retirement at the start of the year. Authorities tell us that 8 retired fireman is very properly classed as dead. once he is legally removed from the city payroll. His voting rights are not lost, although there is belief in the minds of many that such legislation is in the mak- Ing and may be adopted at the coming session of the General As sembly. If this move is actually carried into effect, the only thing then left for the former fireman will be to select his undertaken; for that mattersWe understand that this has already been done in many cases, with a change in front from what once described as "the family funeral director"
 But what We really wanted to say IS that we watched the fire depart ment in service recently on the roof of the old auditorium, a building now owned and controlled by the Albert Furniture Company. We stood in the back ground, with the crowd, heard the comments, and saw some of the speaking officials arrive single handed in their city owned cars, that is, they were their own chauffeurS.
 However, what interested Us more than anything else was the rank and file of the department. We saw these young men actively engaged III lire service, in several instances, for the first time. And then we thought of the dangers and risks attached to this kind of city serv- ice, and wondered as to it's appre- citation on the part of the leading and controlling forces.
 And then we thought of the re- cent case of Raymond F. Kelly of the Hartford Fire Department, a recent appointee and former serv- Ice man. He was working at a fire at AT Morris Street, Hartford, when the veranda of the 2nd floor became loosened, fell on him, and pinned him to the floor He was rushed to the hospital, where X-rays were taken of his injuries.

Survey Starts
 To Determine Need
Campaign to Aid Veterons Gets Underway

Ten local employees today started the house-to- house canvass arr ranged by the Bureau of Census to determine the housing situation for veterans here.
 Dwight R. Hammack, supervisor of the staff, said a crew of trained workers, now conducting similar survey in Springfield, will be brought here shortly to supplement the local workers.
 The survey was arranged by the National Housing Authority. Similar surveys have already been complet- ed in Hartford, New Haven, Worces ter, Fall River and Providence, and other cities in the state are expect ed to be visited shortly.
 The supervisor said blocks in vir- tually all parts of the city have been mapped out for the survey. Workers have been instructed to vis- it every home within the specified blocks. The Bureau hopes to obtain a pretty accurate picture of the Wa terbury and Naugatuck situations from the sample" survey.
 Special cards will be made out for homes which have veterans, 1t was disclosed.
