Housing Developments Learn
ed Through War's Demands
Are Closely Studied
Members of the Harrisburg Cham
ber of Commerce housing commit
tee, who under tho leadership of
Chairman J. Horace McFurland, vis
ited large government housing pro- !
jects in the vicinity of Philadelphia !
yesterday, upon their return homo !
last night said that their trip had j
been most interesting, that it had ,
been taken largely for educational
purposes and that the members had
gathered many ideas which would
lie useful in tlie housing program
which the chamber has under con
sideration.
The ob.iert of the trip, Mr. Mc-
Fariand said, was not to adopt
bodily any of the government plans
as developed in tlie shipbuilding
districts, but to make the members
familiar witii the best ideas in bous
ing that have been developed
through the demand for better
houses through the largely increased
number of men thrown into the
shipbuilding district.
In this party beside Mr. Me Far
land were Edward Bailey, who
made an address before the Rotary
Club recently on housing that at
tracted widespread attention; .T. E.
1.. Kuhn and ('. E. Long, builders;
E. f 'lark Cowden, W. R. Jackson and
1 J. Herman Nisley, head of the State
Bureau of Municipalities. Through
tlie interest of Mr. McFarland, who
lias been engaged in federal housing
developments for some months, the
: party was met at. Philadelphia by
Jolin Ihldor, secretary of the Penn

the American Civic Association, and
were escorted 1o Sun Village Sun Hill,

village, where 1,500 houses are now
in the course of erection.
278 New Dwellings
The first stop was made at Buck
man Village where 278 houses are
in course of erection, some of them
being finished and occupied. These
houses are single, four-room six
room and eight-room dwellings,
apartments, workmen's hotel and
modification of Hie old row types of
residences. Here the committee dis
covered that it is quite possible to
, erect houses in rows of four, six or
eight without any of the dreary
monotony which characterizes so
many of the city rows. By careful
j treatment these houses were built
so each family has a large degree
of privacy and ample light and air.
I There are lawns all around each of
i them, the construction is of brick,
stucco, nnd here nnd there a frame

i dwellings have modern heating

We're proud of your presence with deep hearted gladness
It shows that you felt wc were vivid live wires!
We're glad we can greet you without the war's sadness
To temper our welcome with all it inspires.
We're anxious to clasp every hand and to tell you
The little old town is yours for your stay!
And up to the last to do all that we can do
To make you enjoy us the Harrisburg way!
The world's at a cross-roads and big things arc ncaring
When Rotary's place will be star-high with men,
And he, who clear eyed, can face facts without flinching
Will know the sweet secret of brotherhood, then.
You're with us; we're with you in service or pleasure
To plan for the future or laugh for the hour
And leave in the casket of memory a treasure
Of strong hearts and true hearts united in power.

"Laugh and the world laughs with

Harrisburg is a real human city.
And the women of Harrisburg, they
have the heart.
A perfect mob of citizens, high
and low, made this day one grand
bargain occasion for tlie benefit of
the Harrisburg Hospital, and the
gallant women who acted as sales
women at tho Rummage Sale had the
poise of philosophers and the sym
pathy of angels, for the test was su
perhuman.
Early at 8 o'clock a thousand
1 larrisburgers wedged in front of
the old Gilbert store in Market
street, waiting for General Mercer
B. Tate to raise his stentorian voice
and sound tlie tocsin. A squad of
police had all they could do to keep
the crowd in check. At the front
door Traffic Officer Kautz was Cer
berus, and when the signal was
given, he allowed lint a paltry 300 to
rush into the narrow, but long apart
