All the people around that part of the

proJect with the greatest amount of In-
Interest, and many offered their gardens.

V Connected with the canning workers are
lithe Gatherers and Pickers, with rs. James

lucky to get a. berth at nil, wouldn't you?
But she didn't, and she remarked to the
"Loot," "I wish I could get hold of one
of thope pillows In that berth before that
'darn person' gets In"; and there was a
gleam In her eye that meant, "t think I
will, too." So Just before the train stopped
at the station where she thought the "darn

the observation platform and stealthily ap
proached that upper berth. Pulling the

CATHOLIC PARISHES
FIGHT RENT G0UGERS
Congregations in Northwest Or
ganize Building Associations
Ami Are Buving Homes
Catholic congregations in the northwestern
section of the city have evolved a plan for
beating the rent profiteers.
When complaint began to pour in 1'ioni
parishioners that they had bcoi Informed
they must pay more rent or move the priests
took the matter up with the leal estate men
and won the concession that the tenants
might buy the houses if they wished.
Then the priests got their wealthy parish
ioners together anil showed them that It
would he a kliirtlV as well a a piontablo
act to aid in organizing building and loan
societies to help those not so well off 111
worldly goods to puicliAse their own homes.
At the Church of the Precious Blood of
Our Lord. Twenty-eighth and Diamond
streets, the building and loan association has
been named for the rector, the Rev. Joseph
S. L. Klrlln. The ilrst and second series have
already been subscribed, and tho success ot
the association is assuied.
"As a matter of fact," said Father Kirliu.
"this rent prollteerlng will prove a hlesslns
In disguise if it results In our neonl huvlnp
-their homes. Many are liupiov.Ueut ind
would keep on paying lent rot ever If some
thing like this did not shake them out or
themselves and start them nn the right road."
Only one case or reJl sharp' practice ha I
occurred In his pariah, added Father Klrlln,
and that affected p( rsoni who were nblu
to get a home elsewhere. As it happened,
the house they had been forced to leave was
still vacant, as no one had appeared wlil'ng
to pay the increased rent, so the profiteer
really lost by his hard-hearted action.
There was considerable trouble with the
profiteers for a while in the parish of tho
Church of St. Elizabeth, Twenty-third ai.d
Berks streets. Rut an active canipa'gn by
the rector, tho Rev. Vr'. John D. Maguirc,
resulted in virtually aH the disagreements
between tena.its and landlords being satis
factorily settlea
